Mane is completely finished as a force on this seasons evidence.

These flicks need to stop. No matter how sexual they might seem

Mane is completely finished as a force on this seasons evidence.

On this performance he's playing like his contract is out like Wij and leaving the club

Why firmino hasn't come on, and he hasn't gone off yet i'll never know

Klopp does my head in at times

Comes to something when I want Firmino to come on the left for mane

In champions league at this stage, and they're not even fucking running or closing down ffs

A big fanboy of Mane generally but tonight he looks garbage

[RedNoodle]

That was a shocking bit of ball control/first touch from Mane.

I wouldn’t be averse to a few of the big names going now at this stage. We’ve come as far as we can without a bit of change.

Kabak was fine. Shit from Fabinho and Philips just wasn’t close enough. Our biggest issue here IMO is work rate. We aren’t running near hard enough. Better second half but that’s the issue all season for me. Constantly in this control mode Jurgen has tried to cultivate.

U have nailed it. The drive is gone.

I always get feeling with our players because they have not won much before in their careers or hace gone to another level to win those 2 cups that they have reached their zenith. They are not world class but world class together. I always felt Alison, Mane, Fabinho and Van Dijk are world class level. Others like Salah because of his amount of goals people miss thay he has technical deficiencies and that is why for me he will never ever be world class. Robertson same works hard but can't cross low near the box. Trent has one of the best right boots when he gets it right but that is it. Gomez has bad days but is good. Gini is good but not in the top 6 or 10 midfielders in world football.

Matip I do rate highly and on his day imo is up there. But injuries.

So they were a great unit but not great individuals.

Can't believe I wanted us to get Real - I really thought we'd get past them with some to spare. Shows how much i know!

I was amazed at how many of the resident experts were happy with the draw... But they know best

[Jenson78]

That's a bit harsh ....... on U8's football.

Yeah yr right Noods, Sorry to all under 8’s, im sure u wouldn’t keep making the same mistakes as our so called professionals do.

Thought Thiago would be able to hit the target on occasion, it appears I was wrong
