    A penalty shout out is usually a no lose situation for a keeper. Mignolet though was terrible in the shoot out.

    The 2 keepers are brutal :pac:

    Brutal - I've said for the last couple of years that Mignolet is sh1t - no confidence, never claims balls, always nervy.

    Where did our ability to be clinical go?

    I know, they have no attacking intent anymore, we used to blow teams away in the first half, now we are lucky to get a one goal lead.
    Through but you'd have to be worried by how the team is playing. If anything the defence looks worse than it did last season.

    Playing sh1t, really sh1t. Defence is terrible - they are all making simple mistakes and are all as nervous as f*$k.

    Well, its hard to know where to start with that barrel of sh1te.

    I think Rodgers is going to have to go back to basics. Football Camp - Hard training, square bashing, meat and potatoes, no conjugal rights.

    We are in the biggest of trouble.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson


    That was our 14th shootout 12 wins and 2 losses.

    Both losses have come in the league cup.

    Everton have a habit of kick starting our season sometimes.

    They are even worse than us!

    Watching post match there mignolet is so shy and timid, 17 year old jordan oozes confidence.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,033 ✭✭✭Demosthenese


    Bodes well for the weekend, will surely go out and hammer Everton now. Absolutely no doubt we'll be all guns blazing.

    To be fair did we not struggle to beat Notts County in our first LC game last season?

    I'll not place much importance on tonight, roll on Saturday and the return of 'The Studge' :D

    Mignolet needs competition, he hasn't been at the races at all....

    You might not place much importance on tonight in of itself, but the issue is that it fits nicely with our trend of performances thus far this year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,167 ✭✭✭✭rob316


    So much needed goals for the Kop end. Remember that lads that's where the ball needs to go against Everton.

    Hope to christ Danny is back Saturday we are toothless without him.

    I really don't see why.

    Even at the best of times we've performed ****e against lower league teams in the domestic cups more often than not.

    These games have very little bearing on where the team is at.

    My only ongoing concern is Rodgers sticking with one striker in too many games. Oh, and set pieces too.

    Particularly with Lambert, he's far too slow for the way we want to play as the lone striker.

    Didn't think the performance was too bad on the whole though. It's not like they're some non-league ****heap where we can just turn up with half a 2nd string side and just walk over them.

    We weren't outplayed and we didn't give away loads of chances - it would've been a pretty straight forward 2-1 win if Sterling didn't start looking a bit tired and give the ball away a couple of times.

    Paul Tomkins has a new book out tomorrow about Liverpools epic penalty shootout win over Middlesborough. "Dare to Score"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,301 ✭✭✭✭klose


    Still lots of work to be done but happy to be through, peno shootout is always fun. Good day/night for the academy, 2 debuts and 2 graduates on the scoresheet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,214 ✭✭✭kingshankly


    I'd bite the bullet and go with brad jones Saturday if anything it will give mig a kick up the hole

    I'm looking forward to the 2016-17 season already!.

    Ibe, Teixeira, Smth, Ilori, Origi, Rossiter, Ojo, Yesil, Kent, Wilson, Sinclair, Canos all could have looked at home in tonights side.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,473 ✭✭✭✭Super-Rush


    Scored 16 times tonight and we were still shite.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,646 ✭✭✭✭Vicxas


    Delighted for our academy players.

    But I am absolutely dreading the champions league games.

    Mig has conceded 23 goals in 6 matches


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,588 ✭✭✭daithijjj


    Only positives out of that for me were Lallana and Enrique from the senior players. Sterling was decent too but clearly missing Sturridge to link with.

    The debutants did well also.

    Even more worrying was how 13 of them were in the space of 15-20 minutes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,036 ✭✭✭✭ArmaniJeanss


    Need to move away from this 'you score 15, we score 16' attitude.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 61,272 ✭✭✭✭Agent Coulson




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,199 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    The Everton game could finish 5-4 to either side.


  • Subscribers Posts: 32,890 ✭✭✭✭5starpool


    That was our 14th shootout 12 wins and 2 losses.

    Both losses have come in the league cup.

    Wimbledon and Northampton (formidable opponents) if memory serves?

    Valdes will get in the team drunk the way Mignolet has performed lately
