Premier League 2020/21

Yeah, we tired out and played very badly in the second half. Shaqiri especially was dire when he came on. But we defended well, for the most part, and got a point away at the biggest title rival. That's always a good result.

I'll take the point. Energy just seemed to disappear after about an hour and it became a repeat of smack it long or down the line and giving it away. 

Considering the injuries we've had and we've had to play City, Chelsea and the derby away and Arsenal at home it's a good start to the season. Would have taken a point before the start of the game. 

This is what I’ve said, Liverpool have had a stinking first ten games plus injuries and with a result against Leicester in the next game, it’s not so bad at all.

A draw is fine. Both sides looked wrecked after 70 or so minutes and like they were happy for a draw.

I reckon we’ve gotten away with one there. Barkley was offside but Leno wasn’t getting to that shot, two years ago and nobody would be asking any questions of that goal.

Took almost a full 4 minutes to review as well.

Guarantee no more than 3 minutes added time at the end of the half too.

Unfortunate one, Leno clearly watches the ball the whole time, which suggests that Barkley hasn’t interfered with him. Also no keeper is saving that. But, it happens. Not going to cry about it.

Pep complaining about the Prem not allowing 5 subs after a game where he only uses 1 is peak Pep.

There's a Tiote gif for everything.

Well, we were shite. Deserved that drubbing.

[Cymbols]

Decent result that.

[Kaney]

At least it wasn't 7.

[FLiam]

On the subject of yesterday's game - how shit a signing has Willian been?  

[Kaney]

He's been largely awful after that first game at Fulham. I really don't get why Pepe can't get a start ahead of him but its looking more and more like Arteta isn't going to be the genius instant fix we hoped.

I'm still keeping some semblance of faith but he needs to loosen up a little and let the players creative freedom come out, he seems like he's trying to rehearse patterns of play over and over and over again and it doesn't always work. 

Lacazette and Willian need some time on the bench and Joe Willock should be being featured in the league more, puzzling that he wasn't even in the squad after his last two European performances. We still have a huge problem with creating chances and runners from midfield and he's the closest thing we have to the latter - to me he's a similar player to Ramsey and we need that sort at the moment. 

[Szumi]

I know this is a very over simplified statement, but maybe Arteta should play his best player in his actual best position. That could be a great start to fixing their tame attack

[Szumi]

Joe Gomez is reportedly to have suffered a serious injury in England training.

We're fucked. Well and truly fucked.

Word on the street is it's a season ender. Lol.

Lol indeed?

Fucking important international break 🙄 maybe the FA will let Liverpool sign an emergency centre back as this shit is all their fault.

[The Lusophone]

Should've kept Lovren tbh.
