Obviously a big game today. It'll be interesting to see how we perform under the burden of expectation (given our mental collapse at the end of last season). I don't buy the media narrative about Liverpool being in any form of trouble; it's too early in the season and today's game will be tough. I'm looking forward to the Chelsea v Burnley game too. I've a feeling, given the press coverage in recent weeks about refs not sending Costa off, that there's a risk that a ref may soon look to make an example of him.

A rare good line from Phil McNulty on the BBC:

 

Liverpool striker Daniel Sturridge expressed his discontent at playing in a wide role under Jurgen Klopp. He couldn't be much wider today - he is on the bench after starting in the defeat at Burnley last week.

A rare good line from Phil McNulty on the BBC:

 

Very rare, in fact he probably pinched it.

Coutinho is in my dream team. Should have scored that...

And this week the shirt pulling rule has reverted to normal

Coutinho missed an absolute Sitter. Great player on his day. but has many off days

I don't follow him super closely, but he's never given me the impression that he's an overconfident inconsiderate arrogant prick the way plenty of other Dutch players have. I was in a serious long term relationship with a Dutch guy, so I know that Dutch culture in general is blunt and comes across to us as rude.

What makes you think that about Cillessen?

I don't have any concrete examples. Its his whole attitude that bothers me. He thinks he's the best in the world and he makes sure the rest of the world knows it.

Re spurs-pool

Mane was lucky not to get sent off there.

Was than a pen....  looked like a dive to me.

ofc the week i picked coutinho for my fpl he missed two sitter in a row and james milner suddenly gets to take pens

Martin Keown says a penalty but a few Scousers (probably the non-deluded ones) have said it was very soft, Keown's Arsenal bias coming out a bit maybe?

Not good so far, obv. I didn't buy the media line about LFC being poor but we need to make better use of our chances. 45 minutes to go, but a loss to this lot would be gutting.

My bad, I tuned into Sky Sports 1 but it must of been Liverpool TV.

Firmino looks like a lesbian with that hair style, Now there's nothing wrong with lesbians but when you're supposedly a happily married man, There's something wrong with it.

how is that offside

 

oh right it was llama

Some clumsy challenges from us. Liverpool are creating too many chances; we don't look well organised. Damn.

I've got NBCSN on, and you'd never guess Danny Murphy was a former Spuds player too.

Anyone else see Delli Alli lash out at Firmino? The kid has a track record.

isn't brazil home to quite a lot of feminine guys and trannies? wouldn't be surprised if there was a little something up with him. neymar is the same, flamboyant fashion sense and strange grooming rituals. even ronaldo with his weird patch of hair on his bald head at the world cup '02 lol

What is Mignolet doing?  1-1

wouldn't mind this ending a draw. we win today, good result all around. 

What is Mignolet doing? 1-1

I'm baffled that Liverpool didn't go after a goalkeeper this window. Well they did, a third choice goalkeeper who is 39 years old.

After the Arsenal game, The Liverpool Echo had an article which said something along the lines of Coutinho is ready to break into the Ronaldo, Messi level.

Damn why is sturridge still on the bench
