Match Thread: Burnley v Liverpool

[Steveo]

Has Macca been sniffing glue? He seems to be seeing passes that are just not there

[Steveo]

That’s a poor strike from Wirtz btw not a cross

[Nineteenx]

Not enough movement few times there a player could have made a quick little burst to receive it in just a bit of space thrn it needs chain reaction movement off that

Come the FUCK on Liverpool Nick yourselves a cheeky sneaky goal before the break her NOW!

[Steveo]

HT and we have created sweet FA despite total domination

[RedMagic]

That was dire. Yet another half of football where we are so one paced and devoid of ideas as to how to break down a resolute opponent.

The longer Wirtz goes without puting in a decent performance the more scrutiny he'll come under.

Pretty abysmal first half and I’m sorry but we have seen absolutely nothing again from Wirtz to warrant changing the shape of the team for.

Burnley are the most defensive team I've seen in years.. Wirtz is losing the physical battle all the time. Salah is non-existent again. Things to work on. at half time

[Nineteenx]

Not the best half over to Slot to make sure we’re A LOT better second half and play with much greater tempo intensity movement flair creativity variation, create and score more and get the win

[Steveo]

80% of the ball - 300 successful passes to their 50 - 10 shots on target to their 2

And rightly so. We paid a LOT of money for him for games exactly like this. I watched him for Germany and again he was decent. Scored a good free kick but didn't do a lot in open play. He really needs to up his involvement.

I think we should play 433 with him as LCM or RCM

[miller0863]

Burnley pass accuracy 46.8%, wow that’s poor

[RedMagic]

The tackle on MacAllister could and maybe should have resulted in a red card. However given that Tierney is on VAR duty that was never going to happen.

[Steveo]

Macca not coming out for second half - Bradley on and Szobozlai presumably into the middle

[miller0863]

What we cannot afford to do obvs, is concede, we really will be fooked then.

Bradley coming on for MacAllister after a terrible chain him in the first half.
