Why Liverpool were flat AGAIN

They didn't look at their scintillating best but that can change very quickly...

It is easy to blame Nunez or Diaz for not scoring when they were brought in for the last 30 minutes. The problem is the defence and midfield players who looked tired and not able to stamp their authority on the game.

One name, Szoboszlai. Always brings energy into the team, never stops running, always pressing. I also think the defence has been awful since konate has been back - i love ibou, but he's clearly not fit, and we saw against united VVD was a one man defence the whole game - we played much better with endo at the back.

[TheDreadnought]

Quansah needs to go out on a season long loan. He needs to build that confidence up with solid games.

[TheDreadnought]

Alisson wasn’t rushed back at all… he was given lots of time to recover due to Kelleher doing so well. He just lost focus on the ball as he’s known to do.

[clouphon]

The fact Liverpool couldn't score against that Spurs backline is worrying

[donyoung]

We need to be rested and hit form for Forest and Brentford - there’s a title to be won

The lack of squad rotation (for various reasons) is already starting to bite us on the ass. I would have played the kids tonight. This is how we've lost leagues and CLs in the past. It's no coincidence that Klopp's first 3 years resulted in the highest points totals and winning the CL. Seasons when we binned off the domestic cups. If you chase the dmestic cups you end up losing the league and champions league. Slot's claim that he was "happy with the squad" doesn't seem to be bearing out in reality. Chiesa looked like a bad buy when we bought him. The whole idea was that he would takes minutes off Salah. Salah has looked increasingly knackered in Jan. Big clubs prioritise big trophies. How many times have Real prioritised the CL. I rest my case...

[pamposepa]

Slot needs to rest players! And give others the chance to! Eliot! Quansa! Endo! Morton!

[WamaiR]

I honestly didn't think we were that bad. The fact that wasn't a second yellow is insane to me tho icl.

[wafflesjmr]

Every season I see Jones getting praised for a couple of good games then he becomes so inconsistent and passive during games. Tired of the amount of patience we have on him getting better. He isn’t good enough to start. A decent squad player at best.

[milpatel]

Bergvall's first yellow was a stonewall yellow. I've seen it about 50 times and he makes no attempt to get the ball but to trip Diaz up so he doesn't break. Diaz rides the challenge, goes over without contact which he absolutely has a right to do. How on earth are people saying its not a yellow?

[ern]

Endo also brought a calmness to the back line when he came on and kept things simple. Would be interesting to see a midfield of Gravenberch Endo and McAlister

[jaygilchrist]

How do we go from two of our best performances of the season to two of our worst?

[Patrick_Bateman]

hes on a yellow and should have received a second one.

wtf are you going on about saying he shouldn't have been sent off because he didn't make enough tackles wrong? hes slid in aggressively and stopped a counter attack. hes flown in and missed the ball. diaz shouldnt have to just accept being hit.

the second yellow is even more blatant.

[jimflan]

Van Dijk was immense but also looked very frustrated because he is sick of nobody else in the defence doing their job - he must be sick and tired of Trent, Kostas and Robbo mistakes, Gomez and Konate’s availability issues, amd now even Ali has looked dodgy.
It must be driving Virgil nuts.

[pamposepa]

This contract situation is starting to have an impact!

[paulgalligan]

Here comes the January wobble hope im wrong.
Please feel free to come back here and give me stick if i am wrong..😅

[freddiequinn]

Easy way to solve that disadvantage to a player being ask to go of the pitch for being fouled, the fouling player should also go off with fouled player until they're both allowed on at same time .

[LukeyDorey]

I think going forward jones should be rotating with macca in the deeper role, so frustrating to watch Jones play the attacking midfield position, hoping elliot can get a bit more of a look in

[MetalGearCheese]

Got to completely rest the team against Accrington Stanley. I think Slot made the right decision to go strong in this game, because Spurs were always going to field the best they could. 1-0 loss is better than a 3 or 4.
