Lapps Official Liverpool Match thread

Recommended Posts

In some respects this game counts for nothing, but if we get shredded by Liverpools 3rd team, it's gonna leave morale rock bottom.

So f*ckin annoying that even with 3 at the back we can't do basic defending and keep it tight beyond 4 minutes!

You put 3 of the most lightweight players about in your midfield you get what you get. 

I just hope Farke wakes up soon and realizes you need pace and power to compete at this level before it costs him his job. Look at the teams lining up against each other for set pieces, they absolutely dwarf us as per usual.

Press us high, get in our faces, force set pieces or ask our defenders to make one too many decisions, we lose.

That's all there is to it really.

Worrying Gilmour's gonna prove to be lightweight, and cost us a starting position every game. Lets hope Farke wises up quickly

Don't agree it's a size issue in general, we have put some bigger sides out recently. It's mentality that's the issue. Too many of our players are bullied, it's like there is no culture of combative football.

Disappointing that Idah keeps getting muscled off the ball when we’re actually breaking forwards. Gilmour looks too lightweight even against the Liverpool kids.

How the hell can we be so far distant from last season’s team?
 

Buendia was clearly the brains, pulse and heartbeat of the team.

 

I’m not sure this team would be top-six in the Championship.

Sitting in the pub watching the game,  some Americans have just walked in. Seems like they were hoping to watch something else 

"Uhhhh, guess they're all watchin' soccer....."

*notes a yellow shirt*

"......Uhhhhhhhh, whose playin'....Brazil?"

Why is the plan to get past Liverpools press seemingly to ping high balls to our tiny right wing back? 

Because the wheels are coming off. It was pretty clear that the theory was that Gilmour was going to be the playmaker who would beat the press.

As Captain Blackadder once said "there was just one problem.... It was bôllocks".

Against Germany in 2014?
