I’m not happy Gini and Firmino are poop tonight!

HT 0-0:

Shot at goal stats…
Brighton 5 Liverpool 1
All off target.

Do I need to write more? Big improvement needed from our lads during the second half!

Hes had some decent ones but in general i agree, not set the world alight just yet, seems to be finding his feet. I know Bobby has a great game in him but he’s off today, Personally i’d take Shaq off for Curtis or find a way to get Shaq back at the tip of the diamond

I’m at a loss with negative comments about him, it’s as though comments from pundits is affecting what our supporters think about him. For me he has time and beats the press with a touch or pass and for me its the other players then playing short or poor balls.
Would have loved to play with a player like him as you can trust him and then be confident to move for the next pass.

Firmino is shit so you’d take off Shaquiri??? :rofl:

Patience just like in the last game. Shaq was lost wide left. In the last 5 mins, Klopp seemed to have moved him to the centre. Needs to get him back in the number 10 tip of diamond position, or else not worth having him on the pitch.

We don’t half advertise the fact we’re going to do a short set piece. Does my head in. At least step one pace back to give plausible deniability, rather than stand on the ball.

Brighton in a 532 and defending well. We need to improve for the second half

Well that was drek, what has happened to our home form?
They are defending deep with numbers and as usual we have no answer.
One set piece and we are in trouble because they are a big side and have been first to everything in the air.

Yep feels like we are sleep walking into a 0-1 loss to a set piece.

Our build up play needs to be quicker. Try some first time passes in behind Brighton. All these two or more touches by our lads are giving Brighton time to sort themselves up.

COYR YNWA :nerd_face:

I would put Shaq in the middle and replace firmino with Jones at half time.
Some one has to take him out of his troubles and bench him for a month.

Controlling the narrative. Oldest trick in the book. Works effectively.

How can you pass it in 1st time when no one is looking or moving for it.

I remember the days we’d blitzkreig the first 10min and go up a goal, they sit back and hit them on the counter…

I also remember when we had more than one option to pick the lock on a low block. Gini and Milner may be good in defending but they offer fucking NOTHING going forward and we need GOALS.

scoreless draws every week will only net you 38pts a season. Jurgen. need to open the the sluicegates a bit and trust your defenders to do their job.

Totally agree and it is nearly always against quality foreign players

origi would be better than Firmino on this form. Klopp needs to shout at a few players, Gini, Thiago and Firmino might do the trick. All taking far to many touches or being softer than …

Milly has made a couple of good runs that I’ve seen. But he’ll stop doing them if nobody tries to find him.

Agree. Apart from a couple of sloppy crosses he’s been really good with the ball.

Gini, once again, has been very poor with it but it goes largely without comment.

Feels like we’ve stopped all together. :cry:

It’s grim.
Origi is shite, mane and jota injured and minamino no longer here.
Bobby has to play. Was good v spurs and in cameo at West ham but has been abysmal tonight
