Brilliant, if it hadn’t have been for all the goals, was up there as one of our better players tonight.

JasonF · « **Reply #4401 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:00:38 pm »

The commentator said he chose the wrong pass, should have passed to Salah. Really they're correct because the pass to Salah was a routine one and the one to Jota didn't even look like it was on. Fantastic vision and execution. Most players wouldn't have even seen it.

Five tackles won, who was that idiot saying tackling is a skill you can’t learn.

Surely someone didn't actually say this

Any people here still ready to sell Curtis?

Doubt anybody would take him off our hands.

Dazzer23 · « **Reply #4406 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:03:23 pm »

Best game for a long, long time. Just shows what a run of games can do for most players

Clint Eastwood · « **Reply #4407 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:05:10 pm »

Really impressed with him since his return. Deserves to keep his place. Just hope his tibia behaves itself.

marmite sw · « **Reply #4408 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:06:10 pm »

he needs a run of good games not just one ... gave the ball away alot in the first 30 mins but grew into the game well if he can keep that up then he has a real good future with us ...id love to see him have a good run and prove the doubter wrong ....

Better with each passing match. So solid on the ball and has gotten back to his progressive and creative passing as he's gotten more fit and comfortable.
And, the very refreshing thing is when he does make an errant pass, he immediately tracks the opponent down and frequently wins it back before any harm comes.

BornRedSince76 · « **Reply #4410 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:08:40 pm »

Hope he stays fit - one of those players that you hope go on to do well.

He’s so good.

Classy player.

fowlermagic · « **Reply #4412 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:14:10 pm »

Confidence. It can make a difference as without it he looks pretty ordinary player. Well done lad.

Passmaster Molby · « **Reply #4413 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:19:33 pm »

He looked so much better second half when there was more pace in the game, seemed to suit him when he played more on instinct rather than the ponderous passing game we were playing first half.

jillcwhomever · « **Reply #4414 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:21:36 pm »

He had another good outing today I hope he continues to make the team.

Legs · « **Reply #4415 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:25:01 pm »

Always been a good player Jones played well in all games he has started.

Pleased for him he deserves to carry on in the side.

richmiller1 · « **Reply #4416 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:27:41 pm »

Just needs to stay fit now

Brilliant tonight, he needs to keep this momentum and if he succeeds, then the future looks bright for him.

Top player.

Very good player who I'm a big fan of. If he adds more output to his game, he'd be a top player.

RedBec1993 · « **Reply #4421 on:** April 17, 2023, 10:48:34 pm »

He has a lot of quality on the ball and just about him staying fit now. Will get a run in the team if he does. Seemingly taken Elliot’s place and it’s really worked.

Every player in the world looks ordinary when they're lacking confidence in fairness.

he was the best player today imo.

has a future here with performances like this.

Excellent game tonight. The ball for Jota’s goal was perfect. Had 3 great options probably picks the hardest one but gets it right. A confident Curtis is a different player. Hope he can keep his place for the rest of the season by continuing in this form

Harry McGuire. He should be mopping the dressing room when he has no confidence

Absolutely. A less confident Curtis plays the easy ball to Salah down the line. The criticism at times has been that he either holds the ball too long or plays too safe. The ball to Jota proves he’s got it in him.

That’s as good as I’ve seen him since Porto away.

The fundamentals of his game are good. Good physique, Good first touch and technique. Whether he goes on to add a consistent end product will determine whether he'll be a good squad player here or a permanent fixture in the side.

Haggis36 · « **Reply #4428 on:** April 17, 2023, 11:04:28 pm »

Superb in that second half, his close control and press-resistance is lightyears ahead of any midfielder we have bar Thiago and if he can learn to use his frame better (and more consistently) then he'll be a great option to have around the squad. What a difference it makes to see a midfielder lose the ball and immediately snapping back in to win it (and succeeding).

He's always had the raw tools but we've seen a smattering of these types of performances over the past 3 years which he's never managed to build on, so let's hope he gets the chance over the coming weeks and takes it as he's in there on merit.

Sheer Magnetism · « **Reply #4429 on:** April 17, 2023, 11:06:25 pm »

Onwards and upwards. We know which midfielders are off in the summer, let's see him get some more games under his belt because he's looked on it since he's come back in.

newterp · « **Reply #4430 on:** April 17, 2023, 11:07:09 pm »

You could tell he was dialed-in today.

Midway in the 1st half he lazily got caught on the ball - he immediately busted a gut covered 10 yards and poked the ball away for us to recover possession and I think we even created a chance on it.

BCCC · « **Reply #4431 on:** April 17, 2023, 11:08:02 pm »

Best performance for a couple of seasons, Klopp thought the same hence why he played 90mins including five subs.

He also won 11 out of 17 ground duels.
His Pass to Salah where Salah lost try to create for himself up 5-1 was brilliant also

He got the boss's big big hug at the end too. Was well deserved, great performance. Just stay healthy now

Said that to my wife in the first half. He’s very good at carrying the ball but too often there is nobody running beyond him, so he has to check back and play a simple pass. He’s the one that then gets it in the neck for not doing anything.

If he’s got players running off him, like for the assist of the season contender, he’s very good. I really like him, shame about his injury this season as he could have nailed down a place for this season at least.

ljycb · « **Reply #4435 on:** April 17, 2023, 11:48:51 pm »

All kinds of sumptuous from him tonight. Won his battles and then started to play. He is clearly a very talented player and his homegrown status means that he will have a big role to play next season if he can take the opportunity.

BeingJohnMarkovic · « **Reply #4436 on:** April 18, 2023, 12:06:20 am »

Excellent game from Curtis tonight. Just leave him in the side now for the rest of the season. There is no reason whatsoever to change him.
