Very good first half, should be 2-0. Still think we'll need another.

Liverpool did pick it up after the offside goal but I was impressed with the way we focused again - yep, very promising. I'd love it if we could play this directly more often 

I think it showed we are still not as mentally strong as we need to be that 10 minutes after the offside, as a team we looked like all the energy went. Just glad someone got them back up and going

He was banned. Though this is the perfect game for him to say I told you so to a lot of people here

Shame we don't have a sin bin for some posters really think Gol could have done with a two week suspension rather than an outright ban.

I don’t think Klopp changes his tactics often. Good chance we will see more of the same of Liverpool in 2nd half.

Thats all I’ll say. Scared of jinxing!

Well, we know who we're blaming now.

Mount just gets better & better. Give him player of the season award now and lets be done with it.

 

If it were at all possible getting Frank to present it and the ensuing Twitter meltdown would be hilarious!

We have a clean sheet at HT, thank god we have Jorghinio on....surprised GOL didn't point this out

We’re never two goals down when Jorginho starts. Standard!

We need a naughty step 

I'm in the non fan camp of Jorginho, but he's looked different tonight. Been looking to move it quicker and forward.

Surely there's no way Ziyech starts this half, that's the first time I've seen a player player the false winger position. 

I actually feel for gol. It must be really painful for him seeing that Jorginho pass and not being able to say I told you so!

The mods can always let him back in on parole.

Klopp only knows one way, he proved this when his team was hammered by Villa. It's waiting to be exploited time and time again. If we were a bit more clinical, we would be more than a goal up by now.

It is crazy, it is so easy for us to do anything basically offensively once we beat their press. 

I mean how do you play high line with kabak, fabinho and Thiago is beyond me

We need three, you and Yorkers will be taking up two permanently...

This performance is all about how quickly we’re playing in transition, in recent weeks we’ve been so slow getting forward!

If the opp play like pool today with two slow cb then sure

They have Neto on the bench

I think the burden of posting on here whilst he was playing was just too much for him. Looks a lot better tonight - it's all down to the Ban!

He grew into the United game tbf, so I can see him staying on. 

Would definitely not be against taking him off though, offers absolutely nothing off the ball, and not enough with it. 

This is the first time I have seen us play to Werner strengths and it’s chaos in Liverpool defence. I would keep knocking it over the top let’s see how quick the Liverpool CBs are.

That offside decision to disallow Werner's goal is such bollocks and gets worse with every viewing. 

No football fan wanted this. Makes you not want to watch at all at times. 

With us 1-0 up, honestly would like to see Puli come on for Ziyech for counter attack and this Liverpool defence look frightened of pace.

Refreshing to see us taking the direct route to goal. And its probably the first team we played since Tuchel took over which is pressing us so high. Looks like these are the teams that Werner is best against.

I think all fans agree regardless of their team. It’s ridiculous. 

Need more from Ziyech. He’s offered nothing. 

Great half, still can’t get my head around that offside

What's annoying is he just does nothing. Even if your not playing well the least you can do is be a pest, just get in the way. There was a ball up to him just before half time and he didn't even attempt it, just let the defender head it clear.

Come on Chels, keep it up for 45 more minutes!
