Get in.

Really pleased we got that goal because we should have been at least two clear. Can't believe Phil missed that chance.

Think if we start passing the ball quicker in the final third we can get a couple more because so often we've had a player running in behind them and the passer has just held the ball for too long.

Good performance overall so far.

Glad to see us finally get the goal our performance deserved.

How we didn't take the lead earlier in the first half I don't know. Coutinho in particular should have scored but Vorm is in 'reserve keeper having the game of his life against Liverpool shocker'.

More of the same in the second half, but got to be more clinical.

Gerry83 · « **Reply #2 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:18:32 pm »

Ref... fs

Did Vorm get there before Mane the first time? Looked like Mane took the ball.

Mane almost levelling it out though with two really poor tackles.

Anyway enough whinging. Lets push on and get the second. Good memories of shooting towards that end of the pitch!

Deserved to be 1 up.

Can't believe we got a pen there, the ref was giving us absolutely nothing all half long the c*nt

Coutinho is also having a mare

Brilliant all round. Wijnaldum needs to impose himself more though. He's letting the game pass him by. Only one out of our side who has been anonymous.

So proud of that first half though. Absolutely schooling a good Spurs side at their ground.

Doing alright aren't we. Sound.

Games like this are made for Hendo, best player on the pitch

Upinsmoke · « **Reply #7 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:08 pm »

That ref is a c*nt despite giving us a pen. Should of had one on matip and Mane is constantly being pulled. If we can just weight that final pass better we are through every time.

lessthanmatt · « **Reply #8 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:16 pm »

How the fuck do you get a warning for committing a foul in the penalty area, and the end result is we retake the corner? What the fuck is that. "Any more of those fouls in the penalty area and I'm going to have to give a penalty".... W T F

Mane is so, so dangerous. He's also in danger of getting sent off though.

Good stuff!

Rose is getting sent off second half

Snoopy29 · « **Reply #10 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:24 pm »

Yes Yes Yes!

Matip has been so good at the back. His pace is soo awesome for a defence!

It's a tight match, but you can tell Liverpool FC have the upper edge and possession and creating much more.

Just need to maintain this.

Well played!

P/S - What on earth is the red doing giving yellows to everyone?

Came on a bit late on the game. But is he playing today? Didn't notice him.

Dear Sadio Mane,

Never get injured again

Love every Liverpool fan

Wish Coutinho had've boxed that goal off.

Fuck off ref.

Playing really well here, should be 2 up but can't grumble.

us_col · « **Reply #18 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:45 pm »

Feel better than last week - the defense looks sharper. We're also trying those through balls catching them higher up the pitch.
Love the way mane gives us great width

Wool · « **Reply #19 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:48 pm »

Great performance. I wasn't looking forward to seeing how our relatively lightweight midfield would do against theirs but we've dominated them.

DyingAtheist · « **Reply #20 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:50 pm »

We all know Coutinho is a magician but he needs to stop shooting on sight, he's had a handful of poor shots now where we had players in plenty of space right in the middle. I'd be getting pretty frustrated with him if I was playing.

We've been the better side, just need to actually start converting some chances.

kcbworth · « **Reply #21 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:19:52 pm »

Thought to a man we've been magnificent!

El Lobo · « **Reply #22 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:02 pm »

Excellent

And I get that Coutinho has obviously been influenced a lot by Luis. But if you're gonna just try and shoot from everywhere, then you kind of have to be as good as Luis or it doesn't really work. With a bit more brains we'd be about 4 up here.

Gerry Attrick · « **Reply #23 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:03 pm »

Henderson has been very good. Would like to see Wijnaldum get involved more though. We played well there and deserve to be leading.

steveeastend · « **Reply #24 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:03 pm »

Best performance of Jordan Henderson in a Liverpool shirt so far. Like Klopp said about him prior the game, doing the simple things rather than the complicated ones, doing the ones you have to do, rather than the ones you want to do... He did, absolutely outstanding performance!

Take Mane off as soon as possible, he is up for a red nailed on.

Bjinxi · « **Reply #25 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:06 pm »

Fucking hell.. I was so angry at Coutinho... glad we scored...

Firmino and Mane have been brilliant so far.... Sadly Mane ha to take care...

The ref, Jansen and Kane are all c*nts

Lastrador · « **Reply #26 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:06 pm »

Great first half from Henderson, fuck the haters.

Zoomers · « **Reply #27 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:07 pm »

Stupidest referee ever. He gives them warning for pulling Matip's shirt when the ball was already kicked.

Brilliant stuff so far.

exino · « **Reply #28 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:08 pm »

This referee is having an atrocious game. It seems pretty clear he's inexperienced and out of his depth here.

robertobaggio37 · « **Reply #29 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:08 pm »

Ref haahah. Are you havin a laugh ffs he blows the whistle everytime crowd makes a noise. At least we are winning and playing some good football. The pitch is drier than ever been.

Working Class Hen-Pecked Hero · « **Reply #30 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:14 pm »

We've been good granted but cant see Spurs being that poor second half. Matip and Mane restoring faith in transfers

NaivetyinBlack · « **Reply #31 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:14 pm »

Bohoo. We have no ball winners. Our midfield is a sham. Booo hooooo.

Also, Gini and Hendo look very in tune with each other. Its all about the angles.

Carra-ton · « **Reply #32 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:15 pm »

Hendo has been good. Matip makes a huge difference winning those long balls.

sms1986 · « **Reply #33 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:15 pm »

Vorm is having a great game, but I think we can put another couple of goals past him. Great to be going in at half-time with a lead (watch this thread be very slow growing!) and i think Klopp will know exactly what we need to do in the second half to win this game.

xosder · « **Reply #34 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:17 pm »

What a bunch of soft, diving c*nts.

Claude Cat · « **Reply #35 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:21 pm »

Vorm's kept them in the game really. Hope we cracks and we're 4-0 up by the 70th min

Gnurglan · « **Reply #36 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:23 pm »

Good to be ahead. We could/should have scored more. Mainly thinking of Coutinho's opportunity. Like how we get to counter-attack. Mane needs to keeps his focus, or he will be sent off.

rocco · « **Reply #37 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:29 pm »

Sick I didn't kop Milner would be our peno taker

Madness he was 25/1

Mane.... What a fuckin player we have

bodhisattva · « **Reply #39 on:** August 27, 2016, 01:20:30 pm »

Good game between two good teams playing with a high intensity.

Thought the penalty was soft but we should have got one for the clear holding on Matip.

Mane really good outlet yet again and Henderson is doing well. Really like the look of Matip too.
