Pre Match: Liverpool v. Brentford, 1400 UTC, Sunday 16 January 2022 (Premier League)

can’t believe we are giving the ball to them in our third, hopefully Klopp lets rip and they play better in the second half

HT 1-0:

As our forwards couldn’t score a goal even if their lives depended on it, we really needed that late header from Fabinho. Phew…

Apart from that goal, it was the identical scenario to our game against Arsenal. A lot of domination, but nothing really dangerous to show for it. Brentford must have watched the game on Thursday and told themselves that if Arsenal could keep us out with ten men, they could do it with eleven… Until the 44th minute, it worked perfectly, but they were undone by poor defending on a corner.

Let’s hope that our lads can now capitalise on the fact that Brentford will have to open up a bit. That should in theory open up space for our forwards to exploit. But can they still score goals? Do they still know how to do it?

Jurgen needs to kick some arses. It’s like watching the Keystone Kops at times.

The chance of scoring from a corner (average of all teams) is about 2%. 1 in 50.

Every match thread there’s a dozen boring posts about how shite we are at corners. Yet we have scored more goals from set pieces over last couple of seasons than any other team

I see that Rafa has been sacked. What a short-sighted club.

I would like to see Kaide late in the second half, Tsimikas for Andy.

I feel terrible about this.

Doesn’t deserve to have that stain on his CV, but it’s a ruthless business and he’s a big boy.

Agreed but I’m sure he was well compensated

Frightening every time he gets the ball to feet.

He’ll get a pay off more than I’ll ever earn for complete failure. I’m sure he will fine!
Him and Maureen are done in terms of how they play the game…but they’ll always be mugs who employ them

They should give the job to Duncan Ferguson and learn the hard way.

Ooh, just had a text from my brother. He’s not happy. Called the board “funking counts”. He really needs to switch predictive text off.

Allison looks like the weird emo jazz peter parker in spiderman 3

A 2nd goal would be very welcome.

Just don’t lose, if we can scrape 1-0 scruffy wins till Mane and Salah are back that would just be bloody lovely.
