Another ordinary performance

[pjlincs]

As many as we've got recently?

Don't remember having 3-4 of the first XI out injured all the time when Brian Talbot was playing 70 games that season.

As you may know, Reds, I don't follow other teams. But Jeez, Kai, Odin and Noni are famous players. Who is currently injured for LFC, MC or Sperz? Do they have 4 players out I've ever heard of? {It's gonna be hard cos I only know Salah, Harlaaand and Kane.}

Liverpool have Becker, Frimpong, Gravenberch, Jones and Isak on their injury list. Alisson is obviously a huge miss for them. Gravenberch is underrated.

VvD looked average on Saturday, Konate had a better game. Salah was a waste of space again and should have been hooked long before he scored a superbly taken goal.

Thank heavens for our stupendous defence.

I'm not having that header from Eddie counts as shot on target!

I noticed the stats listed one shot on target and couldn't think what it was

I know defenders tend to get away with grabbing and pushing more than the rules strictly allow, but that pair at Liverpool are taking it to new heights. Konate plays football more with his hands than this feet and as VvD gets older he seems to be following suit.

It's as if you can push and grab all you want with one hand, and two provided it isn't too aggregious.

I thought there were two debatale pens against them for pushing prior to the pen that was awarded for a kick.

And their FBs are absolutely awful defensively. How much did they pay for that donkey at LB who couldn't defend to save his life.

This really is quite a miracle; they won the league by 10 points and then spent 450mil in the summer and they're worse

Last season = Klopp's team, this season = Slot's team

Last season = Klopp's team, this season = Slot's team

He's got a job on his hands now. He has signed players who fundamentally change the way they play and it isn't working. They look horribly unbalanced all over the pitch.

They really miss TAA, I know Kerkez scored but other than that he was terrible. Salah looks lost, yes he scored a worldie but currently you just don't worry about him.

See.... it really is as if Nwaneri doesn't exist any more. Even you are forgetting him....

I wasn't but you're right. I was thinking ones MA would actually use. There is an incredible footballer in there but MA's too safety first.

Brought on MnM when he took Easy off. Hasn't even brought him on when 2-0 up. He could have come on for B yesterday, too. Then used Gabby on the left where he's better.

It's pointless having a player of that potential and not using him. Remember when AW wouldn't give Gnabry a pwoppa go. I knew he'd be great but he was sent on loan to some bunch of cloggers who didn't even play him and then given away to Europe.

Of those players out injured, how many would their fans be perfectly happy to see start a CL QF, for example?

Cos as I thought, I've never heard of them. I've heard of Isak, didn't know he was injured. Had wondered why he was neither scoring nor being moaned about for not scoring so that makes sense.

He'll start in the couldn'tcare cup

As I said in the summer, the new guys are nicking his minutes. It was inevitable.

He has time on his side but over the next two seasons he does need games.

He needs to earn his minutes on the training ground / in games like Wednesday night against Brighton. It's not a charity - we're here to win competitions.

Come on.... you've never heard of their goalkeeper? Or Gravenberch?

3 of those 5 are guaranteed starters.

It's a lot harder to earn those minutes when the boss spends 120 million on two players who immediately sit ahead of you.

That's the point. If Arteta had real confidence in him, he would have spent his money elsewhere

He's 18. His time will come, probably starting on Wednesday.
