Disappointing second half but very unlucky in the first. We should have buried in the first but we didn't and we paid the price.

Flanagan was horrid in the second half imo. At fault for the goal, countless misplaced passes and fouls.

Good display in first half, but we lacked fitness in 2nd. Very strange to see. Even the substitutes looked tired when they came on. Still, not the end of the world when you're taking 4 debuts into account.

Onwards and upwards.

Good point from Babayagu as well. A final observation is the effect it's had on Enrique - we have a fine attacking full back who's barely ventured beyond the half way line, that lack of width in turn means fewer bodies in the central danger areas. A passage of play a minute ago summed it up, we look dangerous, have to back track, quite a bit of space down the left but Enrique is keeping the back line's shape about 15 yards into his own half, when he should be generally menacing all that space.

Well, what you say rings true. I guess Kenny will have to work out how to smooth over those blatant mistakes on the pitch

I only have one question. Why Flanagan over Kelly? There must be an explanation. Cos Kelly is simply the better player. Did he have a knock or something?

i dont like to blame a single player for a goal but what was flanagan doing when that ball came in for larsson to score? He did the same on the last day against downing.

Only ourselves to blame, yet 1-1 is fair I suppose. It was a completely different Liverpool team in that 2nd half.

Dowd was shit to put it kindly

Still think we need some time to gel. Of course I wanted us to win, but I can live with a draw!

Really excited to see how we develop throughout the season!

Started with such promise. Then back to reality... should have got it in the bag in the first half, saying that we were unlucky with the no red card for Richardson and disallowed legitimate goal.

Seen this movie so many times. Why do mediocre players always score wonder goals against us ? Its unbelievable. However plenty of positives.

As of January there were 7 new players starting today. Its practically a major overhaul. We`re gonna need some time.

And that's it! Liverpool draw 1-1 on the opening day. 2 points dropped I am afraid. We should have run out clear winners here. We had our chances but they were squandered. Dowd has to play a major role in this however.
Dowd got most decisions right including the penalty incident, if anything Carra was lucky to stay on the pitch.
We were the architects of our own downfall today.

Forget the deserved red card, and the disallowed goal, its irrelevant.

Could of been worse. A lot of new players together in the team today. Will take time to gel properly.
A draw is ok against them lot, nothing to panic about.

Unlucky not to get the 3 points there.  Some good signs from the new signings.  I hate to say it, but Flanno was pretty shocking.  Easily our worst player on the pitch.

Discouraging to see such a lack of decisiveness on passes in the second half.

Oh well, onward and upwards.  Get 3 at Arsenal and this will be forgotten.

A lot of conspiring factors in this one.

Should have been a red card, should have been a second goal, could have gone in instead of hit the bar, should have been Kelly at right back, should have built on our lead, should have had Aquilani available.

We looked very tired in the second half after an immense first half should've won that by at least . Flanno still too inexperienced!

Fucking bullshit, disallowed goal, no red card shown. Fuck me I'm fucking fuming, how the fuck do we let that slip. Shocking unacceptable performance in the second half, bull shit.

And a missed penalty, a crossbar shot.

It looks to me like we're no better off than last year. Still have a long way to go and lot of work to do yet.
