Match Thread EPL Sunderland (H) - Wed 3rd December 20:15

If we'd lost on Sunday Slott would be gone. Now we'll have to go through another run of games before it gets to that point again... And it'll go on like that till the end of the season. End up 6th or 7th.

We're so deep and letting fucking SUNDERLAND have all the ball at Anfield. We look petrified out there and there's no doubt in my mind that this shape and style of play comes from the manager. When we do get the ball, we're playing it slow along the back as though to run down the clock and survive.

Absolute shithouse tactics.

And as I type that, Gakpo cuts inside and loses it from a promising position.
 
Good lord this is boring, but I mean, we aren't going to go from being a horrible team that has no structure, to playing great football.

I don't really see that happening with this team, but if it were to happen its not going to happen quickly.

It's just odd because some of the way we do build up would drive Klopp fucking mad. I can't think of a figure in world football that would hate it more.
 
Meh. I said while we were getting pumped in the last period, that we could do with more structured boring play and countenance a 0-0. This is more that way. It's not a great watch ,but it is the right sort of approach.
 
Were solid defensively- a positive.

Were too slow and scared attacking wise.

Gakpo is too predictable, but if he gets a goal and assist last week, ill be happy!

Isak is pressing well but little service.

Keep plugging away ... let's get another clean sheet and win please

I don't know if I agree about defensive solidity. They've got through a few times
 
He won't. A manager with balls would move Wirtz to the left, sub Gakpo and bring on Chiesa to play in front of Gomez.
Yeah the only thing more predictable than Gakpo cutting inside and doing fuck all is Slot still picking him
 
Tbh I'm not surprised. The team is going to be exhausted after playing such a difficult match as west ham at the weekend
 
It may not be great to watch, but I don't think it's as bad as many are making out, Wirtz and Macca could have easily scored, and I think we've been breaking through the more than them through us, and at least we haven't conceded, which is something we would have done in the past few months. Not a bad half, all depends on the second half now.
