Topic: PL: Liverpool 1 vs 1 Crystal Palace Zaha 32' Diaz 62’ (Nunez s/o 59')

[Wabaloolah]

Tierney is a disgrace though how the fuck is he allowed to ref our games.

Nothing wrong with the sending off but allowed manhandling in the area constantly then blows up for a foul for the exact same thing in the middle of the field without getting into him letting Palace getting away with constant time wasting

Not going to be easy against that lot next week without Darwin though, got to hope that Bobby is fit

[BER]

With 36 matches to go. 🤡

Mad isn't it.

[Fromola]

Nunez was stupid but Mane has got away with similar a number of times. You can't do that with Tierney though.

One of those seasons like 20/21 where we will be up against it with refs and injuries and general staleness. Just got to make sure we get top 4 or win the CL.

[MonsLibpool]

We were okay to be fair but we were too porous defensively due to the change. Zaha had a lot of joy in the first 60 minutes.

[xhaxhi]

League is literally gone already.

even if we won all of our remaining games?

[Red James]

I feel these idiotic dropped points are going to haunt us in 8 months.

[Qston]

Idiotic from nunez

[killer-heels]

In the end we did well to get a point.

[naYoRHa2b]

Four points off already. We'll drop plenty more points like that this season.

[gazzalfc]

Paul Tierney is a bald fraud.

Nunez now knows what it means to play in England. That aggression shite works in Portugal but it wont work here

[StL-Dono]

Has the feel already like a couple years ago:  every match a grind it out, grueling experience and never really feeling completely confident of any three points no matter who the opponent or where the venue. 

[Dench57]

Concentrate on the cups

[Snail]

Sounds ridiculous two games into the season but when you’re sharing a league with City, you can’t afford tonight and the Fulham match if you’ve got aspirations beyond the top four.

[Stockholm Syndrome]

We need a midfielder like because we can't be having a situation where the looks so disjointed when Thiago is out, especially considering his injury issues and the fact that it's not going to get better with time with his age

[Gerry Attrick]

Forget the sending off, because that was a moment of madness. It can happen, moronic though it was. There were very concerning signs from Nunez. His technique is average if we’re generous. It’s worse than Sterling. He mishits so many passes and shots. He had 3 big chances tonight and barely even managed to kick the ball. Did a shocking pass in the second half too. It’s what we’d heard before signing.

Going to put a lot of pressure on him to actually score goals to add anything of value to our team.

[downtown]

Will be nice not to concede first for a chance.

8 games in a row now ... (CL+PL)

[Ste08]

Funny old game, we said to cut out the draws and we open with 2.

[QC]

This is a pretty shit start whatever the reason - these are not difficult teams

[MD1990]

Too easy to get past in midfield
Diaz back on form is great.
Trent's composure tonight was poor.

Robertson,Van Dijk,Trent,Fabinho all sort of form.

Nunez probably cost us the points though. Madness from him

[Flaccido Dongingo]

Gonna be a scrap for top 4 this year. Forget about the title

That's the spirit

[Dim Glas]

The 2 biggest plus points though was that Harvey and Diaz where both superb.

Harvey needs to be a first 11 player from now on in (as he was to be fair early last season!).

[Ghost Town]

Very disappointing after last week.

These players can do better. They should do better. I don't know why they aren't doing better

[buttersstotch]

I feel like with 11 men our patterns of play were so predictable, Palace struggled against two up top - but I also imo shows the difference with Gomez vs Phillips, we moved the ball a lot quicker.

Darwin stunk the place out tonight. He is going to be a monster, but he is so raw. Felt like the crowd and the players felt the pressure and we succummed to it.

[SinceSixtyFive]

Im about as pleased with this start to the season as I imagine Jurgen is.

[jonkrux]

No idea what went through Darwins head. Unbelievable.
Shite start to the season for us.

City are fucking relentless. We are not..

We should be better than this.

[Rob Dylan]

Terrible, slack performance last week.

Bizarre team selection today when we just needed to get a straightforward win.

Stubborn refusal to sign anyone despite the weaknesses in the squad and multiple injuries.

It's like we're trying to sabotage ourselves. Just ridiculous.

[duvva 💅]

Not good enough.

Nunez can fuck off for that, absolutely unforgivable.

Stupid, but hardly unforgivable assuming he learns from it

[AndyMuller]

Need to start having better first halves and putting the ball in the net.

[robertobaggio37]

Great effort from the lads, we were much better after Nunez red card. Signing a midfielder is a must if we want to achieve this season.

[Seebab]

Thought we played much better when we went down to 10 men to be honest. Diaz though. That guy will run through brick walls to keep that ball. Love his attitude.

[Lone Star Red]

Only thing Nunez connected on all night was Andersen's face. 

[Zlen]

Horrible start to the season, now a three match ban on top of all injuries. We could be out of it sharpish.

[OOS]

Not good enough, oh well. Created plenty of chances, we move onto United. Nunez, daft. Not much more to add.

[thejbs]

Amazing how little ambition Palace showed against 10 men.

Plenty of bland performances tonight but Nunez stupidity outranks everything. He likely cost us two points and has left us light up front for 3 games during a bit of an injury crisis. What the he’ll was he thinking?! 

I’d just clicked send on a message to my bro saying that Diaz has no end product when that screamer went in.

[Chris~]

Christ we could have done with taking a chance at 0-0. Giving up a penalty and red card in the first two is never going to make it likely we win, but had more than enough chances to win at least one.

[gemofabird]

Warn about time wasting on 47 minutes and then don't book anyone until injury time.

Every fecking time...

[TipTopKop]

I'll take that after going down to 10 men

Yes and to be fair, Zaha missed a few sitters after we equalized, which could have made things even worse.

It's not the end of the world, but yeah, seeing City, Arsenal scoring for fun, we do need to turn things around.

[redwillow]

Start Gomez and you win 1-0. Arrogant to rest him thinking we would win.

Makes you think though, if we were that worried about Gomez … how bad is the Konate and Matip injury

[MonsLibpool]

Tierney was wank. Palace got away with a lot.

[ac]

By all accounts Nunez has been welcomed in well by the players but this will sap good well. Honeymoon period over. Cost us today and perhaps costs us the league as we have nothing upfront with Jota out too
