Pre and In Match Thread. Liverpool vs Chelsea. EPL. Sat 28th Aug. 1730 hrs

He has someone that can do that thrusting run but he didn’t came on. What stayed on were passers and passers!

The sending off spoiled it as a spectacle in some ways, as Chelsea just tucked in and held on for the draw, with an outside chance of nicking a goal in the break, but their ambition was a draw, and they got it.

No massive complaints against our players though. The intensity wasn’t good enough but it’s not the biggest crime.

Harvey Elliott had a good game.

we applaud chelsea’s effort at defending but our approach was shit… we didn’t work them hard enough in the final third. yes we had the ball but didn’t really create anything. yes thats mostly down to chelsea but lets be honest, we have seen this movie before against low block teams… congest the middle, push lfc wide and force them to cross. rinse and repeat for a couple of seasons now

No good moaning about the amount of extra time. We wouldn’t have scored if we were there till next week.

Azpilicueta is a cunt though

Tsimikas was the right substitution, was a little late though. Robbo wasn’t creating much from the left.

Not a wum but I think the entire Anfield could see we need a different approach to break down chelsea. Maybe a runner into the box from midfield will help more?

I was quite surprised though…Robbo didn’t finish his pre-season and he stayed on so long!

Yes we clearly need someone from outside as we currently dont have that type of player at the moment

To be honest, I would take AOC or Keita in just purely to run straight at the chavs…

I was going to say the same thing but couldn’t spell his name! The way he went down holding his face was disgraceful and he should be called out for that. But he won’t be.

that was my thought too… but i do understand the robbo sub, dude was having a shit afternoon

Any team would struggle to beat down a Bus which was what Chelsea did in the second half. When you’ve got 9 players behind the ball and then the keeper who had a good game

Liverpool did create some chances in the second half. They also did get some good long range hits across too.

Hindsight ,Tsimikas should have been brought in earlier but that would be hindsight.

sky sports did say chelsea did do everything to win including the dark arts but fair play to them… paraphrase mine

He should have been off at 60th Minute…
