Pre-match thread: Liverpool vs Newcastle

[tombrown]

Why does Salah have M.Salah on his shirt? I don't know any other Salahs

How many Kabaks do you know?

 

[FreshRed]

The finishing is shit but it's a fun match.

Thiago, Kabak, Salah and Firmino have been boss.

I'm scared of where we would be this season without Mo.

Jota and Mane need to find their shooting boots.

The goal came from the hardest of 10 chances.

Jota Will be getting one. Mane? Probably not.

 

[The Nomad]

We definitely need a second. I can't see us keeping a clean sheet

 

[Woland]

How many Kabaks do you know?

Love a decent palindrome

 

[Shay_K]

COME ON YOU RED MEN

 

[RedStar]

On the plus side Thiago has absolutely bossed it, he's pulled the strings brilliantly so far.

 

[bobtkelpie]

Our strikers have as much power in their shots as a 6 year old...

 

[Red Mullet]

How many Kabaks do you know?

He has one every Friday. With chili sauce.

 

[Red Mullet]

Jota being careless

 

[KopRed]

It's getting kind of scrappy.

We are encouraging Newcastle back.

 

[Farkmaster]

Jota being careless

That's one of the big issues with our play. If you play with 4 attackers, and a substandard CB pair, they cannot afford to cheaply concede possession in buildup. We do it all the time.

 

[Red Mullet]

We’re losing concentration

 

[RedStar]

Careless is a diplomatic word for how Jota has played

 

[rubans]

Jota’s build up play is sloppy, if he wants to start in the front 3 then must take a lot more care.

 

[Red Mullet]

That's one of the big issues with our play. If you play with 4 attackers, and a substandard CB pair, they cannot afford to cheaply concede possession in buildup. We do it all the time.

We’ve gone back into our shell. 2nd half turgid performance coming.

 

[FreshRed]

TAA has been playing much narrower than Robbo

 

[Hansern]

We’re gonna draw 1-1, after missing about 55 chances

 

[Red Mullet]

Jota off, Millie on.

 

[Markeh]

Shite today Jota

 

[KopRed]

Is Hendo out for the season?

 

[Hansern]

Firmino had dropped off insanely in the 2nd half

 

[mwake]

We seem a bit tired and leggy, simple passes going astray...

 

[Red Mullet]

Firmino had dropped off insanely in the 2nd half

It’s the same half of the pitch he played in the first half.

 

[RedStar]

Is Hendo out for the season?

Last I heard he was due back at the end of this month, but it's been pretty quiet so that seems unlikely.

 

[rubans]

Robbo’s been much improved today.

 

[KopRed]

The fuck is wrong with Mane.

 

[RedStar]

Firmino had dropped off insanely in the 2nd half

He was mostly poor in the first half too except for a 10 min period where Newcastle pushed up and left space in behind for him to thread passes into. To be fair he's not alone, Mane has been a yard off the pace again and Jota has had probably his worst game in a Liverpool jersey.

 

[KopRed]

Another miss.

 

[Shay_K]

Mo should have guaranteed the pts there.

 

[Red Mullet]

Salah buries a gift in to the side netting
