Thinking back, two moments stand out to me to demonstrate how poor we were (obviously, our poor moments were not limited to these two):
1. We had a corner early on in the game (before the 20 or so that we also wasted), and we followed some sort of training routine. A short corner. A pass to the centre, and a further pass to Coutinho... then, a complete fluff as Coutinho lobbed a ball forward towards the advertising boards - and well away from any Liverpool player.
What was that all about? Complete waste, and a complete embarrassment. Seemed to be the way our players were feeling though as nothing much good followed. Why do we bother with "training routines"
Can't remember the lat time one produced a goal.
2. The game restarted after HT. One would assume the players had just been hammered by Klopp, and Can in particular had wasted 45 minutes. So here we are.. ready for the come back. Yet, in the next 60 seconds of the restart, Can had already made two stupid fouls giving Hull two free kicks, and one in a dangerous area on the edge of our box. Seriously?! I was fuming - and imagining my rage if Hull scored from it. It was just ridiculously sloppy - and typical of Can.
60 seconds.. 2 fouls... !
Why did he bother coming back on the pitch?
