Topic: Half time: Everton 1-0 Liverpool

[bird_lfc]

Tiresome, same old shit with conceding first and wasting chances

Front three poor again. Currently comfortably the worst out of the 3 competing at the top. BIG second half needed

[ThoroughlyMediocre]

Probably minority opinion, but keep the faith. Ended strongly, look like we woke up after a largely awful opening 30 (not helped by the disgraceful reffing).

[rowan_d]

You'll never see a team play into their opponents hands as badly as we did until they scored. Playing better since then, but the same horrendous touches and brainless shooting we've become accustomed to over the last month.

[Lee-87]

Sort it the fuck out lads, started coming outta second gear towards the end there, hopefully pick up where we left off after the break

[Draex]

Bullied for the first 35mins, like we’ve given no thought about the basic requirements for a derby at Everton, lost every header, every duel. Our defending is abysmal, fuck knows what Konate is doing, space cadet for months.

The less said about our front three the better, fucking shit, no excuses for them just not good enough.

[Gnurglan]

Our finishing is letting us down. We improved after their goal but my God we struggle to find the net. We struggle a little with their set pieces. Need to keep going and our attackers need to do better on the chances they get.

[killer-heels]

Played fairly well.

Listening to Neville is sickening.

You really think we have played well?

[Lynndenberries]

Said I’d take a draw beforehand, definitely would now. Don’t get why anyone wouldn’t.

That does literally nothing for us. You're accepting that the title isn't winnable at that point.

[WorldChampions]

Bad opening 30 but grew into it. Should be leading but we continue to spunk easy chances.

A traffic cone could keep us out, we would just aim straight for it.

^ Branthwaite goal.

[Red_Potato]

Nunez poor play is getting tiresome.  No touch, no finish, no anticipation. So passive. 2 seasons now. He's not showing he's good enough.

[S]

Because we need to win.

No we don’t, we have very little to play for as long as we don’t totally collapse in the remaining games.

[decosabute]

Mentally abysmal. Asleep until Everton scored, and then wasteful. The greatest hits of shit Liverpool.

[Lee-87]

That Branthwaite gobshite has just added 20 mil to his price tag n all

[Fromola]

I can’t wait for this season to end

At least can switch it off completely if we don't win today.

Can we at least not lose to the fuckers?

[jillcwhomever]

They will come again for 15 minutes or so.  The their legs will fall off.  We’ve played much better, keep doing the good stuff.

I'm more concerned about the referee right now, he has two of our players on a yellow card for next to nothing.

[RedDeadRejection]

Could do with a goal here

[y2w902]

Konate has no business right now playing ahead of Quansah, haul him off.

[Tonyh8su]

I loved Darwin Nunez. But he is driving me fucking berzerk. He is an absolute passenger and liability. Mo Salah is not far off him. Both offering absolutely nothing except hooking balls wide, blasting them over the bar or driving them right at the keeper.

Dom Szob has been replaced with a clone that's never played football.

The referee is fucking pathetic.

The thing that stands out most to me is, if I was an Everton fan I'd be fucking furious. Because they're seeing their players are capable of diving in front of every last ball, beating players to the ball and digging it but yet they could still be relegated. Their whole club is fucking pathetic.

[RedBlakey]

The ref has been dreadful but don't let that take away from the absolute dross we are serving up.

[jepovic]

I think Salah has been worse than Nunez

[thejbs]

you know how Klopp said he was leaving early because the team was in such good shape? Do we have a case to report him to trading standards?

[In the Name of Klopp]

Mr. Slot got a massive job on his hands. Good luck.

[AllyouneedisRush]

This ref is a disgrace. So many cheap fouls for absolutely nothing and of course one of them leads to a goal.

This isn't on the ref... that goal was pure comedy by us

[RyanBabel19]

They will come again for 15 minutes or so.  The their legs will fall off.  We’ve played much better, keep doing the good stuff.

We said this about Atalanta lol

How are we being outfought by this abysmal side

[Butcher Knife Roberto]

Rinse, repeat, how many times have we seen this? Enough already, there's a fucking title to be won. Endo, for the love of God please, Endo on to free up Mac Allister. Szobo has been anonymous, as with Salah. Got to get this sorted fast.

Oh and the ref and VAR are utterly incompetent. Again, rinse fucking repeat. Starting to get really fed up with the game, to the point of jacking it in after Klopp takes his final bow. No wonder he's fucking leaving.

[disgraced cake]

First 25 was fucking abysmal, only looks like one team wanted it. Since then, should really but winning. Nunez doing himself no favours with more docile play, Salah continuing his poor form. Again, not getting much from any midfielder not named Mac Allister. Van Dijk and Konate have struggled again too. Jota's been an absolute huge miss as expected.

Behind again then with it all to do. Should still beat them if we really, really want it as I think they'll tire but I'm not sure we'll play with the calmness and conviction that is required without missing a host of chances. Absolute shite again.

[Higgins79]

Get Elliott on.

[gerrardisgod]

Another physical forward and Konate just wants to wrestle, let him flick balls on, there’s nobody within fifteen yards of him ffs.

We’re basically relying on our full backs to bail us out.

[Golden_Child]

Wasn't that offside???

I'm a bit stoned tbf 

We've missed chances again. But we're at least making more than they are.

I'll lose hope once the final whistle goes

[naka]

Starting to create chances
We need to equalise early and push on
Ooh and Nunez and Salah need to wise up.

[CS111]

Our finishing is schoolboy
Did you see salahs double shot, the first one was going to the corner flag before he then shot high and wide.
Looked half arsed aswell when shooting.
Then nunez, sorry, i like him, but he cant be relied on enough for us to be competing at the top end.

[Nick110581]

Said that they diving is as bad as their tackling.

Ref fallen for it.

Hopper just ignoring Klopp on sideline.

[Schmarn]

Centre backs too weak, losing the first header every time. The team lost their bottle early on which led to the first goal. Nunez has no brain, doesn’t aim, just blasts it. Not good enough I’m afraid.

Might still come back but this is who we are at this stage, conceding stupid goals and missing big chances.

[killer-heels]

No we don’t, we have very little to play for as long as we don’t totally collapse in the remaining games.

We have very little to play for?

[chromed]

Sick to fucking death of these shithouse c*nt refs buying these ‘fouls’ where any opposition player playing against us feels the tiniest bit of contact and throws themselves to the ground.

No point in us throwing cross after cross into the box as these gang of yard dogs will just head them away all day. We need to keep playing the ball on the floor fast around the box to get success.

Said it time and time again this season but if we finish our chances we’d be out of sight. Nunez and Diaz HAVE to score there..

Time to turn it around but something needs to happen fast

[newterp]

This isn't on the ref... that goal was pure comedy by us

The goal started from a bullshit foul that was given

[danm77]

We really picked it up towards the end of the half but it's amazing how slow we start seemingly all the time.

It’s a common trait. We start slow, allow teams into the game, and then only start playing with urgency and tempo when we go behind. Just don’t understand why this constantly happens.

[sminp]

This is the most corrupt season I’ve ever seen. The defending for the goal was shite but it was never a free kick along with about 10 other non-fouls that c*nt has given them yet when we’re fouled the ref doesn’t see it. Need a fuckload more from Salah too, completely anonymous yet again. Diaz at least is having a good game.

[us_col]

Salah looks so much off the pace - and why is he hanging about in mid-field so much?

Don't see what Jones and Szob are offering us.
