You missed how Liverpool got easy penalties in the last few seasons, now they are treated like royalty in every away game. When did this happen to them, they score at home, ref says no goal after 5 minutes? Never.

As that’s why we never got the foul on Abraham a couple of weeks back as it was a different phase of play because the ball went backwards. The ball went backwards after the Mount offside so surely it’s a different phase of play so VAR shouldn’t have got involved? Make it up as they go along. i hate VAR its the worse thing to happen to football in my lifetime, and unfortunately now it is in, it will never be out.
September 22, 20196 yr New inexperienced manager, lost Eden, transfer ban, a shed load of injuries to important players and we are losing to a very good team. There first goal was a free from a mistake by Christensen, the second was not a free. We have had a goal disallowed by a 2 inch offside decision and missed a couple of really good chances. its really not all bad folks. I don’t like the score either but some need a reality check here and realise this is what this season is going to be. I’m still enjoying a lot of the football we are playing.
September 22, 20196 yr Can't call it a mistake but Courtois and Cech would have came and easily claimed that cross for Firmino's goal. Just saying.
September 22, 20196 yr Just now, coco said: Chelsea score = VAR <<rewind>>x10 (must be something we can find) Thank you. Liverpool created 1 semi chance in open play, we created 2 clear cut chances and scored. Our defense isn't that much worse than theirs.
September 22, 20196 yr Just now, Scott Harris said: Does it work for anybody? The only teams that get away with it are the very top teams, and the only reason why they get away with it is because they don't need to do much defending. Zonal marking is the inferior defending tactic, it always has been. It's a sure way to concede goals. Top teams that do it have either world class CBs or GKs that pull them out of bad situations alongside the proper tactics to go with that style. The way we're doing it, might as well we put everyone on the goal line.

September 22, 20196 yr Sometimes I think about luck, the goal we scored that was denied by VAR will become a football topic outside this forum for me. Don't think our midfield has been bad certainly good at times. The defending on the second goal was poor though the free kick was taken form a good position favouring the attacking side, Alonso was brought on as a sub yet as a pair him and Christensen didn't do well. Tomori has done well especially on a yellow, I was surprised by the yellow, first offence and did not look malicious........bad luck. Not a good day so far for Tammy.
September 22, 20196 yr Just now, Gol15 said: First goal, nothing our team could do there. The shot was perfect so the defending there is not at fault. The foul that led to it...maybe. Second goal right after our own goal so concentration was falling apart at those moments and yet again, Liverpool gets a foul in a dangerous area simply by running into our player. Liverpool's defense also allowed us to have 2 clear cut chances, and a goal that var took away. first goal - poor foul by Christensen in a very very dangerous area. Second goal - if you can't concentrate as a PL defender than it's amateur league defending. our midfield gets constantly outrun and our muscled. Tammy was toothless so far. The frustrating part is that Liverpool didn't look great today, but we are just worse. Again, we need patience with the team,

I agree but 99% of the fanbase will go out talking how we got outplayed now...
September 22, 20196 yr The defending yet again has let us down. For that first goal I don’t know know why Kepa steps across to his right side when the ball is passed in the opposite direction. Kepa just needs to protect that half side of the goal. The marking absolutely shocking for the second and we can see why we have conceded the amount we have this season. Would love to see JT here as our defensive coach.Having said all that I think we have been decent. Tammy should have scored on the 1v1 and I’ve already learnt not to celebrate any goal we score until about 5 mins later! I’ve no idea why we are getting so many injuries.

The ball went backwards after the Mount offside so surely it’s a different phase of play so VAR shouldn’t have got involved? My thoughts exactly. That was why they allowed the Norwich goal to stand despite a foul in the build up

September 22, 20196 yr 18 minutes ago, Scott Harris said: Couldn't have been a much worse first half. 2 goals conceded, 1 goal ruled out by VAR and 2 more injuries. At least it's character building.

Firmino could have made it 3-0 in the 46th min. shocking marking,
September 22, 20196 yr Well I know some fans wanted attacking football they were crying out for it but I would be happy to take a step back and be a 1-0 team....until we can get our defence sorted as we are getting ripped apart
September 22, 20196 yr Our second halfs have been awfull this season. I am afraid of a real beating tonight.
September 22, 20196 yr Liverpool are totally dominant. We have been awful today, you would think we were the away side.
