Our play is fine until the last 3rd then the forwards just start hacking and swiping at the ball like its a wasp.

Which game were you watching?

You must be watching a different game to me.

We were really good there but unfortunately 2 things remain the same.

  1. We still can’t hit a cow’s arse with a banjo in open play.
  2. Curtis Jones is offering absolutely nothing.

Get Jota on, take Jones off and drop Gakpo back.

Millie Shaqiri Gini boom

In fact I am going to don my Shaqiri shirt.

I think they are overplaying it. Turning down good chances looking for a slightly better chance.

Our midfield is simply lacking again. Giving the ball away cheaply.

Comedy gold.

Our play has been for Ali or Trent to hoof it to our forwards who can’t trap a ball, almost nothing is going through the midfield.

Probably why we’ve created very little in open play.

I bet it looks like a XXXL on an 11 year old.

What an absurd rule that is. He seemingly would need to get 2 yellows in the space of 5 pens to get sent off, which makes you wonder why everyone doesnt completely shit house during the pens if its near impossible to send them off :joy:

How was that not a red card? I’m struggling to understand the thinking by the ref on this

Still need to tighten up our passing, still some sloppy passes when an easy ball is on, we also need to keep up the movement and rotation into passing lanes if you dont receive it,
rotate out for someone else to move into the space

No, because it will go on top of the Bobby shirt I have on.

His next play was to do the Golden Glove thrusting thing with his actual wang out.

Exactly, instead of the forwards, the midfield has broken up attacks the most and ended up getting dangerous counters !!

Could you be wearing any more clothes?

There were covering defenders, supposedly.

Okay, I overreacted a bit, we were the better team for the last 15 minutes. But we still need to raise our game for a whole level to have any chance of progressing.

Jota on for Jones I reckon.

In my 6-a-side league last night I took a rare foray forward from my natural CB role. Got the ball on the left wing, ran infield with it, split the defenders then changed direction, ran straight at goal and as the keeper came out I touched it around him to score. An absolute worldie.

Anyway, I don’t have a point I just want to share.

Liverpool, be like me.
