Half time: Liverpool 0-0 Chelsea
« on: November 25, 2017, 06:17:18 pm »
Bit of a disjointed performance so far, really struggling to create anything or get into any sort of rhythm. Hazard is causing us all sorts of problems. Need to get Salah on the ball as much as possible, he's the only one who looks likely to make something happen at the moment.

Lucky to be going in at 0-0, we've created next to fuck all and are being torn to shreds at times when they go forward. Get Mane and Firmino on asap, not in the 75th minute.

Milner been absolutely diabolical
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

Moreno has been good. Salah very involved as expected.

Coutinho has been very quiet. Almost as quiet as the crowd.

Happy to be still level after that. Hazard is beginning to look unplayable again.

Milner has been, let's be kind and say rusty. Needs subbing soon.

Salah though? Fuck me, if he keeps improving at this rate, we're talking all-time great.

Heavily reliant on Salah to make something happen. Very little service in to Sturridge and the crossing has been poor.

Our midfield is awful, again. Attack and defence. Coutinho's having an off-day so far.

They do look more dangerous than we do in attack, but it’s mainly as I’m shit scared of our defence at times. We either create the magic or gift the magic. Hazard looks good. Coutinho not in it yet.

Henderson and Moreno have responded pretty well to the criticisms levelled at them mid week. Big fan of Milner but don't think he's at the races today. Hopefully see Mane soon.

Decent performance so far. Just got to keep Hazard quiet because he is a real threat.

Plenty off the bench so no need to rush anything.

Salah has been great.

The midfield is criminal. Absolutely no shape at all.

Henderson is running around like a headless chicken, covering ground but also leaving gaps everywhere. Drinkwater making runs unchecked, freely into the box.

Milner is playing like he is wearing 20 pound heavy boots stuck in quicksand. Coutinho is a non factor in midfield right now.

So I would move Ox into midfield and COutiho wide, get Lallana on for Milner.

No cutting edge at all. Get Bobby on for studge  to start pulling defenders around and creating gaps. We’ve had more ball but Chelsea more likely to score.

Hazard making Henderson look Sunday league. Milner losing the ball far too much

Hazard is an amazing player has to be said. Their midfielders are timing their running off ours well.

Salah our best player. Coutinho is in poor form. Sturridge marked out of the game. Milner hasn’t been good either.

Milner been absolutely diabolical

He has no place being in centre mid in a game like this. We are missing Gini more than anyone here.

But still no damage so should be all good when the first team comes on in the second half.
