Phew, for a minute there, I lost myself!

Keep pluggin away red men! Wij's goal was ace and should motivate us further

[plasterered]

lovren such a nervy player when his head goes he is a ticking timebomb


I was going to say i expect this shower to go all out now last day but in fact even at 1 down they will stick to this 9 in defence shite and try to drag it to the last 15.
I fking hate the bottom half of this league. every single one of them.

composure now and we kick on......up the DARK REDS

[Miltonred]

It was a pen and an extremely clumsy challenge from Lovren, we'd be screaming for that at the other end. Lovren got lucky.

Nonsense. the player slows up to force the contact than falls over. Never a penalty.

[lessthanmatt]

When Lovren is all over a Boro player as the last man, who is goalside of him and the player goes down in the box

[Studgotelli]

No.

If that was us I'd be fuming.

[unknownuser]

Let's fuck these bus parking fucks back to the championship. Such negative football...you'd think mourinho is managing them 

Come on you REDMEN. YNWA.

[hesbighesred]

It was a pen and an extremely clumsy challenge from Lovren, we'd be screaming for that at the other end. Lovren got lucky.

He got a bit lucky but it's also fair to say that he hardly touched him and that the 'keeper probably had it covered. I'd be screaming for it at the time but I wouldn't be bleating about it afterwards if that had been one denied us.

[JustDan]

Fuck yes Gini!

Felt optimistic before the match, was feeling good with how up for it the players were right from the start, but just as I was beginning to get a little worried... up pops Gini!

Please get another one or 2 early into the 2nd half.. just put it beyond doubt please.

[Marcel]

Ace. Anyone with acestream, this one works well:

acestream://7d590053b9bbf7eec1134a16263f213d4932a6f6

If you can put up with Russian. If you don't have acestream, get acestream.

[Gili Gulu]

That crowd...le sigh.

Don't they get how it transfers onto the pitch?

You can try to get 11 people to think the same way, or 53000.
Which is the easier task?

[SerbianScouser]

kind of pedestrian even when the whole season depends on this game.

It's the pressure, I wouldn't be too harsh on the lads. Think it'll be easier now for them for let loose and play with more freedom.

[jillcwhomever]

Team are more nervous than me. I'm hoping the game might open up a bit now, because if it's still 1-0 with 10 minutes to go, I think I will be a stinking pool of liquid lying on the floor.

Anfield is nervous too you can sense it. I hate the way the Sky twats just show fans biting their nails, once in a while you can see people encouraging the team too. Bloody Middlesborough never seen them work so hard, hopefully we sink them second half.

[thisyearisouryear]

We need to be 3 up at least. Come on redmen!!

[Wabaloolah]

Thank fuck for that, we keep trying to force things, that diving c*nt Bamford not helping my nerves either. What a sweet goal by Gino, had he missed it he'd have been slated for not squaring it to Studge.

Huge credit to Matip for being strong and winning the ball and credit to the ref for playing advantage.

The sure I can take another 45 minutes, can't we just calling a day now please!!!

Loved Klopp's reaction to the goal, so emotional, he's with us boys, he's with us!

[exino]

Thank god for Wijnaldum!!

We got lucky there though no mistake about it. We need to come out to start the second half with the exact same drive and intensity we finished the last 5 minutes of the first half with. More in-and-out movement and combination play through the middle is required to break down this compact Middlesborough defense.

[ac]

Lucky to be ahead. Are apart from coutinho no one is really taking any responsibility. Need another especially with lovren at the back

[peterstone]

Done alright but everything keeps breaking down when it gets to Sturridge

Disagree

Its not been quick enough or accurate enough before it gets that high up the pitch

Lallana has been pretty poor

[TepidT2O]

Right... where did I leave that opium?

Will have to down a bottle of night nurse instead...

[Zlen]

God damn it gimme gifs, clips I want to rewatch that for ten minutes.

[Giono]

That crowd...le sigh.

Don't they get how it transfers onto the pitch?

And they aren't being barraged by talk of nerves and failure by colour commentators. I had to turn off the sound they were trying to milk that emotional teat so hard.

[CoventryYNWA]

Need to up the tempo, hopefully this calms the lads down because they didn't want to touch the ball were all hiding except for Coutinho.

Come on boys clean sheet and one or more goals 2nd half.

[killer-heels]

My heart sank when Bamford went down there.

[Motty]

Need another 4 just to be sure.

[tommy LFC]

Can't remember the last time I celebrated a goal like that, literally nearly hit the roof!

[BER]

Half-time bong in his honour.

Bamford diving c*nt.

[stockdam]

A nervy half with Boro playing exactly as we don't like. It's hard to break a team down that defends so deeply. Anyway great goal by Gini.

Now we need more of the same and another 2 goals please.

[Clint Eastwood]

Matip using his frame beautifully there to block the ref.

[Barneylfc∗]

DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....DON'T SIT BACK....

FFS! ATTACK!!

I'm not quite sure what you want us to do 

[Flaccido Dongingo]

Gini further solidifying his growing reputation as a big game player for us.

[Pie Eyed]

Nervous as fuck here.

Great time to score. But can we PLEASE just smash another 2 or 3 in early in the second half?

Need to finish this off.

[Scribble8]

This doesn't feel good at all. We should twat them 3-0 at half time not look like this...

[plasterered]

Phew, for a minute there, I lost myself!

Keep pluggin away red men! Wij's goal was ace and should motivate us further

Nice work there

[ToneLa]

Sky Sports keep cutting away and doing shite like showing the table to reflect 3 points when Arsenal scored.... when it was 11 minutes in!! Fuck off with that shite. The game isn't over but being written off is fuckin joyous if, WHEN, we prove it wrong

[Lycan]

Goes without saying we need another goal or two here.

[Motty]

Shout-out to Martin Atkinson as well. Saved us big time with a clear pen and a red.

Definitely

[S]

My heart sank when Bamford went down there.

Fucking hellish wasn't it?

That's why we need another, far too dodgy at just one goal.

[Butcher Knife Roberto]

The things that really riled me during that first half were the smirks on the Boro players faces. Bamford and Fabio, you could see the pair of them laughing like they knew exactly what they were doing. That's why I don't think this is over. We'll need 3 or 4 to finish this lot off, because they are absolutely determined to spoil our party. The good news is that they are the lowest goal scorers in the league, and if they are trying to pile forward we'll pick them off.

Small time club, small time attitude, fuck off to the Championship Boro. The worst thing is that half of those journeymen players will still be stinking out the PL next season. Anyway, time fuck off the bitters and their petty agenda by sticking this lot away.

[TepidT2O]

Lucky to be ahead. Are apart from coutinho no one is really taking any responsibility. Need another especially with lovren at the back

Mate, don't take it personally, but no one fucking cares today.

I wouldn't care if it deflected in off Roy Hodgson's semi erect penis as he tried to sexually assault Rudi Gestede

[Golyo]

Sorry guys, just arrived home at the end of the half. They must have waited for me.

[SteveLFC]

Matip blocking the ref saved us from a Penalty and red card for Lovren!
