Liverpool v Porto Match Thread CHAMPIONS LEAGUE

[Rosco]

Not having Hendo doing his job at number 6 is having a huge impact though, means there are a lot more balls getting through to the back which are normally cut out.

I don't know... Fabinho seems to cutting out plenty

 

[Jack D Rips]

Red all day

I don't know... Fabinho seems to cutting out plenty

Indeed, our right hand side in defence seems to be whats lax for me.

Collector's item: a tackle by Sturridge

 

[Mystic]

Fun fact: Sturridge is on the pitch.

I don't know... Fabinho seems to cutting out plenty

Which he normally does alongside Hendo, who cuts out loads. This isnt an agenda thing, Lovren has been poor (I'd expect as much first match back against physical & fast attackers) but we've faced more through balls getting behind in this match than we normally do.

the coach of porto = the mayor of London

 

[FoxForceFive]

Hendo dropped back now it seems, trying to protect this lead.

 

[hmmmmm1]

After time wasting for 20 seconds, Milners throw in was so poor

 

[keniget]

I’d quite like to see Keita a bit further forward.

Seems wasted sitting deep.

 

[hmmmmm1]

So greedy from salah

 

[FoxForceFive]

Origi with a great run & loads of power, then overhits the cross by a mile. Sums him up, sadly.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Lovren did well, brought the free kick

 

[Jack D Rips]

Mo doing me head in tonight

 

[Markeh]

Fun fact: Sturridge is on the pitch.

The way he manages to look just as tired as everyone else is impressive

 

[FoxForceFive]

I’d quite like to see Keita a bit further forward.

Seems wasted sitting deep.

He's played further up most of the match, but is clearly deeper now, having Hendo playing that more forward role meant he had to drop deeper too.

 

[Jack D Rips]

Why didnt Origi continue into the box

 

[hmmmmm1]

Kieta with a good run, then does nothing

 

[Mystic]

I love it when Keita does that.

 

[FoxForceFive]

Great run by keita there.

Powercube coming on.

 

[Shay_K]

Shaq

 

[keniget]

Great run by Keita.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Stupid pass from taa, keep possession

 

[6TimesaRed]

Wow from Keita..

That's the Keita we signed

 

[Mystic]

City looks rattled and irritated, which is great, as thats exactly what we want to see. They really are a reflection of their manager, petulant in defeat.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Good win, kept a clean sheet. Poor shaq didn’t get on

 

[FoxForceFive]

FT. Shaq didnt make it on.

Good performance, if not great, but good scoreline IMO.

 

[Mystic]

Not getting the third goal was a mild disappointment, but still, can't argue with that.

 

[keniget]

Unlucky Shaq.

 

[ILD]

Shaq not even trusted with a min.
