Post match: Chelsea v Liverpool (EPL 4/4/23 8pm)

Klopp needed to start the season with a tactic … I’m still waiting … and feel it’s too late!

So you’ve seen what my old Gooner pub used to look like on matchdays? :rofl:

something clearly isnt right. How do you go from 2 kicks away from winning the lot to this? As I said I dont think anyone expected the quad again this season but for the whole team, with the exception of Ali, to fall off a cliff is staggering.

I agree with TAW when they said after the City game it looks like they all hate each other this season and cant wait for it to be over. That is some fall from last seasons togetherness and fight for each other.

You don’t half post some drivel.

I take some encouragement that at least we haven’t spunked 600m in this transfer window and become a worse team…Hi Chelsea :rofl:

No point in moaning about our issues because theyve been there from day 1 this season and is unfixable with the current squad, but special memtion to our midfield again, who cant protect the defence or provide creativity in our attacks, pure garbage. Special mention to our captain and leader Hendo for trying to have a pop at Ali, who is undoubtedly our player of the season.

We are highly unwatchable right now and i cant see where our next win is coming from…and thats scary.

Where has our identity gone? The mentality monsters have gone, the gegenpressing has gone, we just look like 11 individuals going through the motions hoping someone will do something.

Do I care?

I managed 80minutes. Against say Arsenal we lose that game 3-0. Our only saving grace is Havertz finishing ability being about the same level as a lake trout.

Don’t know what else to say really. Ali looks his normal self, the rest are all over the place. Our pressing is completely out of sync or missing, the defensive line is about as straight as a Manchester City accounts sheet and let’s not get into our mixed bag on effort.

Subs? Weird.

Bugger, managed to say more than I thought I would.

I thought Jones was a liability. But then he was not alone……

In the Bobby role? :relaxed:

Yeah.

But what have you done for me lately??

It was before that…remember Trent throughout the Palace away draw? He was scowling and throwing his arms up at everything that night. It can’t have been just the match, something else was on his mind. VVD’s been like that most of the season but especially after the World Cup. And then Jordan blows up publicly with Ali.

Exactly.

I don’t see the point of why some are getting their knickers in a twist from Henderson berating Alison.

Only seen the Sky Sports version in real time, mind, with Neville’s take on it, which was Henderson making a point that Ali should’ve claimed, and Ali saying he did, then Henderson instantly turning his ire then straight to Fab.

Despite the downturn of our captain’s form, nothing wrong in being vocal to make sure all are on their toes.

No, but a number of them are in the twilight of their elite level careers. The drop can sometimes be precipitous

What did Curtis Jones get booked for? Dissent? As far as I can see he went over to the ref and said “I was fouled”. That got him a yellow card and yet every other player seemed to be in the ref’s face all night.

Not really.

Hendo was being the captain and intervening in a dispute between Ali and Matip. Matip said Ali didn’t shout, so Hendo went to tell Ali he needed to shout. Ali had a strop because he did shout, so Hendo went back to Matip and told him to pay attention.

At full time they were all hugs.

You should see the in game threads. It’s like competition to see who can be the most miserable bastard.

Probably swore at him, most likely. Somehting that every other player will do, and nothing happens. Wayne Rooney would specialize in it but wouldn’t get a card. Just the way it is. Nothing to see here. Just move on. Kane is a saint.

It was one of those games where they were allowed to foul us at will, but every time we touched them he blew the whistle.

No different to 99% of our games, then.
