One of the most frustrating halves of football we've played all season. So much good work is being undone by a severe lack of quality in the final third.

We've got nothing on the bench to change it so it's on these players to sort themselves out and find a way back into the game. Yes, we are missing a lot of players, but this lot should be good enough to beat fucking Luton at home.

As expected.

Not sure Endo and Gomez are needed right now. Throw on Robertson and one of the young attackers.

How many chances you want lads?

JP! · « **Reply #4 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:17:25 pm »

Decision making in the final 3rd has been complete and utter garbage.

Coolie High · « **Reply #5 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:17:28 pm »

Diaz is infuriating.

The efforts been there, but lacking quality in the last pass/finish

diegoLFC7 · « **Reply #7 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:17:48 pm »

From the off Diaz having a stinker. You have to put that away in the frist 3 minutes. Nothing to say about their goal, a complete fluke. These players need to figure it out. Decision making and shooting has been considerably subpar.

As hard as it is we’ve got to not get frustrated. We’re bare bones and things just aren’t dropping our way but they will if we keep going

Keep believing Reds

Diaz…… mate.

JRed · « **Reply #10 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:02 pm »

Expected it to be tough but everyone on the pitch is now an established first team player. Should be doing better.,

Caps4444 · « **Reply #11 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:05 pm »

Zero pace up front and that’s the issue.

Libertine · « **Reply #12 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:22 pm »

Tonight was a chance for squad players to either step up and push for a first 11 spot or demonstrate why they are squad players.

Definitely more the latter so far.

rafathegaffa83 · « **Reply #13 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:24 pm »

So wasteful. Diaz has had a hat trick of good chances

bornandbRED · « **Reply #14 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:38 pm »

Elliot and Diaz screwing up every attack

Gravenberch has been good. Visibly working much harder

Caps4444 · « **Reply #15 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:39 pm »

Win this and we win the league.

jepovic · « **Reply #16 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:51 pm »

we're creating plenty of chances, but the finishing is not half shite. With Nunez or Salah it's 2-3 goals.

Gravenberch really positive. Endo and Gakpo good too
Harvey is pretty dreadful unfortunately, and Gomez inverting is useless.

DelTrotter · « **Reply #17 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:52 pm »

Massive half coming, these aren't good but it's also our reserve team so it needs a mega effort. A chance for a kid from the bench to make themselves a hero too. Get it done!! Can't be winning a league while dropping 4 or 5 points to these, just not gonna happen.

Always is without Nunez. Gakpo is anonymous, as ever.

Nick110581 · « **Reply #19 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:18:57 pm »

Diaz been terrible.

Their goal was lucky too.

Losing to Luton at home, Fuck Me!

Sonofthewind · « **Reply #22 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:07 pm »

Can they just stop shooting aimlessly from distance

CS111 · « **Reply #23 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:13 pm »

Cant say that has filled me with confidence.

tubby · « **Reply #24 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:16 pm »

I think what the team is missing tonight is more pot shots from 20 yards. There have only been about 100 of them so far.

Caston · « **Reply #25 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:25 pm »

Might be the most frustrating half I’ve watched.

GK error gifting them a goal.

Terrible decision making from the forwards.

LovelyCushionedHeader · « **Reply #26 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:26 pm »

Yeah it just feels like we're in massive trouble here. One or two injuries too many.

elkun · « **Reply #27 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:30 pm »

Disgraceful performance dont care how many injuries we have. Diaz, Elliot and Gakpo are ruining every attack

sminp · « **Reply #28 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:30 pm »

You just knew those 2 big chances for Diaz would come back to haunt us

QC · « **Reply #29 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:33 pm »

Can’t tell what’s worse - the attack’s play or their confidence. Looks a bit hopeless unless we get bailed out by some wonder goals.

Diaz is a wildly frustrating player, so ineffective

Fromola · « **Reply #30 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:34 pm »

How did it come to this?

The injury situation was completely unsustainable. 3rd season out of 4.

Barneylfc∗ · « **Reply #31 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:36 pm »

Absolute fucking shite.

Diaz and his decision making is frustrating as fuck.

spider-neil · « **Reply #32 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:36 pm »

The chances Diaz passed up.

Simplexity · « **Reply #33 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:36 pm »

How we do not score when Diaz is through on goal one on one is actually insane.

Diaz is having an absolute shocker. Not that any other attacker or anyone else really have been brilliant.

Snusmumriken · « **Reply #34 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:36 pm »

Can’t blame the team, playing much better than I expected. Feels like a game we we should go in 2-0 and somehow we are 0-1 down. Need someone to put on their shooting boots for second half though.

Draex · « **Reply #35 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:39 pm »

Stop fucking shooting from distance, that and the nose bleed when we get a decent chance is killing us.

Gakpo, stop coming so freaking deep.

bobadicious · « **Reply #36 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:41 pm »

Feel like if some of Diaz chances had fallen to Gakpo we'd have scored

latortuga · « **Reply #37 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:53 pm »

Never seen Klopp so angry before. Absolutely fuming and I sure I read him say fuk off at one point.

These players are children out there being asked to step up and produce in a key moment and they either aren't good enough or aren't ready.

Luton have been brilliant mind.

Funky_Gibbons · « **Reply #38 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:19:58 pm »

The lack of movement in the penalty area or desire to get into it is really frustrating.

Too many players want the ball to feet.

robertobaggio37 · « **Reply #39 on:** February 21, 2024, 08:20:00 pm »

Some of the decision making in the final 3rd.. it's quite frankly hard to comprehend. Injuries or not, we should be 3 up minimum.

Just painful and sad to watch:(
