Match Thread: Brentford v Liverpool

[Steveo]

There is contact.. look stop being a plop

I’ll plop this one in…

Not according to any of the pundits was there any contact - Both former Liverpool players.. - and both are right Cody is falling long before the challenge is made. He is diving - Colling lucky there is no contact but there isn’t

The cunt of a ref is allowing time wasting. Its fine when we are the team its happening against.. I thought they were dealing with that at the start of the season? Oh yeah its happening against us so its fine.

[justme]

I disagree!

Now we have got out of jail there. Could have been 3:0 on HT but we break through at the death for 2:1.


Slot has to show he is a manager now - this isn’t coaching this is management - let’s see

If Slot gets out coached by Keith Andrews he needs to look in the mirror and give his head a wobble.
We can’t defend for shit, need to go back to basics, stop playing ALAMO we’re looking embarrassing.
Virgil & Salah have downed tools since they’re big contracts.

Really mate ?

Yep, we opened them on a few occasions. Salah's first touch let him down. Wirtz should have scored and Gakpo put one on Ekitike's head.

Thought Jones and Szobo looked decent in midfield.

But as I said, for whatever reason we shit the bed after 30mins. We totally collapsed.

Wirtz reminds me of the ultimate lightweight luxury player , who absolutely thrives in a team that’s battering the opponent and he can pull the strings with options everywhere . I honestly don’t think he’s cut out to play the Brentford , brighton , Crystal Palace’s of this world with physical pressing players

[Steveo]

I disagree!

Fair enough. It’s a game of opinions

[Red October]

Kerkez may have tapped in from 6 yards but he really doesn’t look good enough so far.
Wirtz … I keep saying it, wtf is he doing to warrant playing two in midfield instead of three??

Mo Salah …Mo Salah .. has anyone seen Mo Salah??

Only Dom was worth his shirt in that half and maybe Jones.

The rest were like rabbits in the headlights.

Bloody clueless.

Is this partly down to Johnny Heitinga leaving??

Yeah kerkez awful. Wirtz too lightweight. Salah gone to pasture. Jones was actually okay. And dom. Goalie poor though

[justme]

Shit knows what is happening with Macca if he can't even start over Jones or Wirzt.. Either hes fit or hes not... he should be now its almost November

[RedMagic]

Is bring on chiesa and McAllister , give it 20 and bring Rio on , jones giving it the big one after Frankfurt I want to run games , well run one in the prem then , Frankfurt are dog shit

I've said many times that Jones has one or two decent but not great games, some people give him an OTT amount of praise, and he then reverts back to type i.e. a nothing player that isn't that good.

He started brightly but like the others it all broke down after 30mins.

Yes and you are right we were decent football wise early doors - but one detail you have wrong,.. Gakpo put one well behind Hugo’s head

[Steveo]

Here you go fellas - Replacement ref

You can't get away with one meek midfielder in the PL.. Hes not in a 3 or a false 9. No real place for him in the starting 11.
He constantly gets caught with the ball and his passing is easily cut out..

[redgold]

At this rate we're going to be like Utd of the last couple of season's. Absolutely disgraceful to tear apart last season's team and restructure it with players from worse leagues all at the same time. I'd have been much happier with just replacing Nunez with Isak or Hugo and paying Diaz what he was worth, and replacing Trent with someone who wasn't 3ft 6 and injury prone. Gradually replace not wholesale personal and sytem.change.
