The draw/loss thing is a reasonable observation (obviously not 100% accurate because 1 point is better than 0 points!) but if you take it to mean that too many draws will kill you, it is spot on.
My hope is that this will prove to be our bad spell. 12 points from 21. 3 wins and 4 draws. Not disastrous, but not great either.
Time to get back to winning ways and keep a healthy gap to the chasing pack.
Its broken record timeā¦
I watched the foul(s) on Mo Salah in the penalty incident again today.
If thats Grealish, Saka, Madison, Palmer its a penalty every occasion.
I know Kavanagh gives us nothing, Brooks on VAR isnt reasonable for usā¦but fucking hell that was stonewall.
I agree Sandy, and I just donāt get the lack of protests by us. Any other team would have been up in arms. We just shrug and play on.
First half was a continuation of the Anfield game where we were clueless and could do nothing, we improved but not able to do enough to stop us dropping 2 points.
Iām guessing because weāve been conditioned to expect yellow cards for thatā¦
Nottingham was a tough match as expected. A draw was not unthinkable.
But this does shows maybe we need one more striker. Letās sell Nunez now off the back of his two goal performance. He is foolās gold and just has never developed in Liverpool but he might somewhere else. If we can get 70-80m pounds for him we would be fools to pass up the opportunity to sell and then invest that in a player who can score some goals for us in the back half of the season.
Yeah clubs really work like thatā¦ I know pundits think one result means the world but I think itās lot harder than that.
We scored 14 in three games a couple of weeks ago.
If we get Ā£80m for him, that suggests what others have said. Good strikers are at a bit of premium at the minute, and there arenāt many about. Newcastle feel bold enough to demand Ā£150m for Isak.
Unless there is a deal to be done, I would keep him for now. I think the chances of him going anywhere in Jan are not far off zero.
In comparison to winning the PL this year I really donāt give a shit about how much money we get for him. And given weāre not going to get another striker this window then weāve more chance of winning the league with Darwin in the squad, as he proved on Saturday
Yes
But none of them were scored by Isak or someone shiny
Absolutely. And precisely why there is no way we can let Trent leave in January despite some crazy talk on here a couple of weeks back.
Yup, I said we let no one leave in this window bar potentially McConnell and Iām not even sure about that to be honest.
EVER!
Trentās influence on the win has gone a bit under-the-radar because of Darwinās goals but he showed a lot of driving force for us late in the game - boundless energy and constantly trying to be positive. Great run for the assist on the first goal. My Peacock died just as Elliott spotted his run and I shouted āTHATāS A GOAL!ā as the stream died. Trent in that position is lethal.
Strangely I donāt remember any of this at allā¦
Sorry to hear about the peacock. Are they edible?
Did we beat Forest?
Oops!
Meh - it felt like a win.
