Stoke City 0-1 Liverpool: In game and Post Match debate

Think our problem is we wanting to many touches on the ball in the middle. We gotta move it quicker as the options are getting covered while we take 4or5 touches

Lallana needs to come off. Too lightweight today, and seems to slow our play down immensely. Number of times he could have tried to put Benteke in but took another 4 touches and played an easy ball!

Lovren should of been sent off there

Come off it. It wasn't THAT bad.

I've only just seen it and the fuckers free pass has been revoked. I like the ribbon on the bottom of the website btw. That's new? Or is my browser acting different mods?

Migs winds me up when he gets the ball.  Everytime he goes to throw it quickly, then puts his hand up and waits for the opposition to all get nicely back into position.

Release the ball Migs!!

cou is too deep for my liking

Skrtel has been superb.

Get Lallana off, useless, 30 mil and he can't cross a ball ffs.

Benteke the only guy in the box for goodness sake.

And we are crossing the f**king ball.

Crossing the ball DOES NOT WORK. Seriously, this should be common sense for football clubs that stats show that 9/10 crosses do not work.

Lovren should of been sent off there

Dick

Looks like Can will be coming on fairly soon. Brendan has just been giving him some instructions.

Come off it. It wasn't THAT bad.

It was bad, I'll watch it again later, first impressions are if some did that against us I'd want them off. But I do want to keep all our 11 on the pitch.

Get more men making forward runs into the box for goodness sake.

When we win the ball in their own half we labour with the ball. There has to be greater speed and effort to get closer to the goal the moment we snap up a loose ball in the Stoke half. We'll remain scoreless unless that changes!

looks like can is coming on. good move boss

Come off it. It wasn't THAT bad.

Straight elbow to the face? He was lucky to get a yellow.

Poor Benteke. Got F**k all.

Emre coming on. Hoping Lallana sits down.

Straight elbow to the face? He was lucky to get a yellow.

He was watching the ball the whole time and was levering himself

Yellow card was harsh

Benteke the only guy in the box for goodness sake.

And we are crossing the f**king ball.

Less than 10% of shots result in goals, shall we stop shooting as well?

Straight elbow to the face? He was lucky to get a yellow.

Wasn't intentional. Straight as.

So our tactics are now hit and hope.
Jeeeeezzzz never thought I'd see the day

Have we even had a chance?

Straight elbow to the face? He was lucky to get a yellow.

Agreed.

I think Brendan has set the team out similarly to how Rafa used to with both Henderson and Milner sitting and leaving the attacking to the 4 forward players. Benteke looks a little isolated at the moment and needs someone to get closer and support him.

Yeah I get your point mate but we have very little threat in behind unlike then, so the Stoke back line can press up without much worry.

Adam truly has been disgraceful for them.

Let's hope Can brings about a change in system with the change too.
