Topic: Joël Matip (Job Joël André Matip)

Don't think I've met one liverpool fan who doubts his quality. He's just made of balsa wood unfortunately.

Roles Royce of a defender

Fabinho is currently being labelled our 2nd best CB

Matip is criminally underrated

I think Fabinho is our second best, I also think Matip is absolutely superb.  Both can be true.

He's our very own Hipster Doofus.

So Hipster Doofus, he's not one...

Or something...

He can play the part! I agree.

[stockdam]

A great leap today to setup Salah’s goal.

Had a good game and let’s hope he stays injury free.

[Topwings!]

Like all the rest, he was just great again.  Hope he stays fit for the Christmas run.

[JC the Messiah]

He's a majestic giraffe.

Love that Alisson is following this account

This is a must watch!

No need to thank me [emoji6] so unusual to see an interview with him, especially a lighthearted one.

I was smiling the whole way though!

Loved this. He's a funny guy, whether intentional or not!

[Hedley Lamarr]

I'm actually upset at that interview, I was hoping he'd be much stranger, almost David Lynch like. Turns out he's remarkably normal.

The illusion is shattered.

Hahahahah

What a lovable bunch.  His answer about pies was diplomatic.  Funny dude

[Ravishing Rick Dude]

He looks like Wenger's son, although i have no idea what his real kids look like

[Red Cactii]

Nice week long break for him before out next game will do him the world of good. His positioning when Ayew was trying to play in Zaha was quality, such an intelligent footballer.

Haha, that's great

I loved this moment. Ayew was visibly not confident about shooting at Alisson from that angle, and his pass option was cut off by Matip. Brilliant defending

[Jwils21]

Good game against Palace despite his poor showing against Spurs.

Thought he was pretty great against Spurs. Garth Crooks said so too.

Those lapses are totally unforgivable.

That odious douche bag only puts Liverpool players in his team of the week so he can slag someone associated with the club off. Fucking gremlin

[redgriffin73]

As good as Alonso's famous performance in the 4-1 against the Mancs, I thought.

  Great interview

[RedSamba]

Great player but we cant rely on him. He is injured every two games. Buying a defender must be a top priority

[Chakan]

Guess he can high Naby on the way to the treatment room

[Samie]

For all the talent he has he's the Agger of this current era.  He should be our first backup because we just can't rely on his body.

[royhendo]

We need fit players who can push through the niggles. He’s not resilient at all. Great for the young lads though.

[SMASHerano]

We need a replacement in January. Unbelievable how many injuries he gets.

[Simplexity]

Thats him gone for 3 months, makes Sturridge look invincible by comparison.

[Chris~]

For all the talent he has he's the Agger of this current era.  He should be our first backup because we just can't rely on his body.

Surely you need your back up to be available though?

[medley]

For all the talent he has he's the Agger of this current era.  He should be our first backup because we just can't rely on his body.

I thought of Agger when he came off. Great players both of them but can you play them for 5 games in a row without any hiccups? It's so frustrating when you know their talent and their body's can't keep up with the demands

[DelTrotter]

Feels like we do incredibly well out of him if he can put a run of 5 games together, though he can't really put 5 together as we have to rest him as he can't cope with loads of games quickly. Shit situation, real shame as he's an incredible centre half.

[JackWard33]

Was genuinely thinking he’s a contender for play of the season based on his level when fit ... a few minutes before he went off .... his body appears to be breaking down, incredible amount of injuries recently

[Keith Lard]

Fingers crossed it’s not too serious. Superb player and we need him back soon

[HeartAndSoul]

If we are not looking to sign a centre back in January because we have Virgil and Gomez coming back next season and we don't want 5 centre back (including fabinho) then we should really look to shift Matip in the summer and bring in someone in January. He's a world class centre back but you genuinely don't know when he'll get injured. What's the longest spell he's had in the team without being injured?

And one imagines that it's just going to get worse the older he gets.

I agree with you on all three points. But I suspect you'll need to post this message a few more times before the season is through.

[Welshred]

Suspect he won't need to post it for the next month at the very least

[Bread]

My MOTM today. Seemed to give West Brom confidence when he went off the pitch. I have no doubts in my minds that we'd have kept the clean sheet and the scrappy 1-0 win if he were still on the pitch.

Makes me unbearably sad that he can't seem to get a string of games together.
