Topic: FT: Liverpool 1 vs Palace 2 (Phil 23' Benteke 42' 73')

[Macphisto80]

Come on in, Manchester United - the water is fine up here. Should I take your coat too? Why certainly. Why not?

[sonny crockett]

 

[Ski]

FFS! I know it's a team game but every time our attack must want to kick the shit out of our defence. Fucking shitshouses!

[Caligula?]

Tottenham will probably smash 3 or 4 past these as well. Sigh.

[Danny55]

Gonna go all the way to the wire. United's run in is tough as and Arsenal will continue to drop points.

Only repeating what a lot of you are probably saying but it's just the lack of squad letting you down. I don't think your players and manager could've done much more this season with what's available.

[SteveZissou]

This is what happens when you can't afford to have a 30m+ player on the bench (to to change things). For a long time now we rather cash in or save the wages than have true depth.

[greeny01]

Absolute Cowards...Massive bottle job...We knew what they would bring and played like that...Mentality needs a massive change.

[JG6]

By the way, Matip isn't good enough for us either. He might look good, play a decent pass, but he's an average defender. Lovren, well...

[Trendisnotdestiny]

If you can't support us when we're losing, don't support us when we win, or words to that effect from a great man.

THISSSSSS!

[plasterered]

Wank defending again.

Soon as we don't clear that first ball they score every time.

said it before we are terrible on 2nd balls and challenges in the air. it didnt help today that we had zero threat in the final 3rd

[Reese]

C'mon everyone are we really surprised?

We really never do anything easy.

Clinching Top 4 on the last day will be no exception. 

[Scott0908]

wont get 4th now.

[please, I have my reasons for it but...]

I wish FSG would fuck off, minimal investment in the summer, no investment in January when we most needed it, same old crap coming out of their propaganda spiel about investing in the summer.

We don't have the quality or depth to go to the CL and if we do, it will be because of the work of Jurgen and co.

[sms1986]

the game is gone now cannot change it. What happens now in regards to our top 4 chances??

They're damaged, that's for sure, but not gone.

[Dave D]

The fact that the manager has this shower of shit currently in third place must give some hope for the future.

I understand some people are frustrated, but look at our squad, we should be finishing in sixth place with that team. Most of the players on that team are easily capable of giving up and feeling sorry for themselves for the rest of the season, while still picking up their massive wages each week. They've done it before.

[Maverick84]

[6BigCups]

Lovren at fault for both goals. Catastrophic. We don't deserve champions league if we get hammered by the leagues dross, constantly.

We can't complain about the bench when we didn't sign a single player in January.

[jillcwhomever]

Just leaving the game , I'm fuckin ashamed of you wankers leaving with 10 minutes to go , you can all fuck off!

I can't be arsed to change my Tapatalk settings because my time is more important than yours

I was about to say, no longer can we laugh at other fans who do the same, when so many of our own deserted us, so early.

[thekitkatshuffler]

If Benteke had had the strike rate at Anfield when playing for us that he has when playing against us he'd have been a bargain.

If we'd put as many crosses in while he was still at Anfield as we have done since he left, then maybe he would have that strike rate.

[SwissV]

FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I always get suckered in to false hope just for Liverpool to crush me. As soon as we went behind there was mo desire at all.

 Coutinho the only player to show up today.

Both goals are just fucking lazy lazy wank goals to concede. The 2nd, 6 players just stood there & did nothing. It was a piss poor corner.

Fucking Migs has 2 blinders then thinks hes done his job for the season.

 

[smicer07]

Bottled it. Plus we can't defend any sort of ball thrown into the box. Again. Entirely predictable.

[whtwht]

Thought we would equalize at least. Shite result

[Nobody cares what phone you have and that you are using the free version of Tapatalk]

[bodhisattva]

The lack of proven quality on the bench is hurting us, we didn't really have the options to make changes when we needed it, poor result and both goals were really badly defended.

[DPB RED]

What a sorry performance.
Injuries and a lack of decent squad players is probably going to cost us a top 4 finish.
The lack of fight and in game intelligence was shocking to see today.

[Lush is the best medicine...]

Bet365 odds for top 4

Man City 1/8
Liverpool 2/7
Man united 2/1
Arsenal 7/1

Need city to do us a favour, Dortmund going 3rd and hopefully keeping it takes one awkward team out of the playoff round and I think would make us a seed in it

[TheMissionary]

Keep Coutinho and Firmino, ...........................

Won't happen.  No CL footy and Phil will be off.

[Felch Aid]

Thank god we picked up two wins before this game.

We may still do it but the fact it's out of our hands is scandalous.

The season again looks like its disintegrating with fragile play and and mentality.

Just win the next 4 games but I honestly see us just avering 2 points per game.

[AaronSingh25]

Is there any defensive coaching going on ?

The side has the same frailties that Rodgers team had.

Even Fat Sam has Palace organised. We are a fucking mess.

Or is it just individuals ?

[Lar Salty]

Lovren MOTM for Palace

[Zizou]

We couldn't afford another bullshit performance like that, and I really hoped they were out of our system. Fucking gutted.

[BER]

Origi, Can and Clyne were gash. Three of them love a good run down a blind alley, or take eight touches and then pass it to an opponent.

Never got the logic of moving Firmino to accommodate Origi, just put Origi on the wing.

[RedorRed]

Sooo bad at defending.... its ridiculous!!!

The first goal..... 4 yards out on his own..... with everyone marking fuck all

This is soooo damaging..... if the Mancs didn't get top 4 they would lose so much money through the sponsorship agreements!!!! This was our chance to damage them and get a better quality of player ourselves!!!

As it is they will make a fortune..... and we'll be stuck with more potential!!!!

Why can we not defend..... just get close to someone in a different coloured shirt for fuck sake!!!!

[thekremlin]

Lovren and Clyne need to go. Both persistently dreadful.

[Steady Eddie]

if united beat city - its out of our hand

Wipe the beads of shit off your pants then check out their run in....and ask yourself, are they gonna drop points?

Then come back, and breathe.....again.

[CallumLFC]

Origi is just so meh.

Really hope we're not doing our customary fuck-up of things at the end of a season

[elsewhere]

Klopp not learning to play against lower teams is becoming big concern. We can't keep using the Mane injury excuse. Even Utd won at away match witheout their two best players.

[thisyearisouryear]

I will be devastated if we don't make CL this time. We are making it super tough for ourselves.

[Lycan]

It's now gone from any result is a winner for us in the manchester derby to -------> Us needing one of them to win now. Preferably Utd. 


Bloody idiots Liverpool.

[Sahara]

Nearly two seasons in for Jurgen and he hasn't been able to solve our problems in defense, the same problems which plagued Brendan. 

I feel you can drill mediocre average players in such situations, I'm not confident buying new defenders will mostly fix this problem.

[Alan_X]

That felt like a big loss.

It was. Our best hope is that City beat United and the games between Spurs and Arsenal and then Arsenal and United go our way.

Injuries have completely fucked our season. For whatever reason we need to be able to rely on most of our players being fit for most of the season. And we need to sort out the defence.

It's still far from over but fuck me, we make it hard.
