      Can we just delete this thread and pretend he doesn't exist?

      So that’s Watford and now here

      Yet he doesn’t get replaced

      Those four points he has cost us could really have been crucial

      I am sure there is more too, trash

      What a loser. To protest like that is so pointless. Take responsibility for your gaff. You ought to be use to it by now. It was soft, sure. But that’s almost always a penalty when a decision has to be made in a matter of seconds. Shame on you for defending that way. Quit being a chump and own it.

      The fact that it is correct to play him is shameful. Sadly he is one of the 2 best we have right now. That’s pathetic

      Sir Duncealot. Proudly wears his crown of sh*t tonight.

      Who will it be next week? Will Dejan hold onto his crown of sh*t or will Mignolet grab it back at the first opportunity?

      Was a really soft penalty and in fact in slow mo Lewin clearly dived as he slowed down waiting for contact and of course Lovren duly obliged.
      Not surprised Pawson gave it as he is one of the poorest refs in the league, no great surprise he doesn't get many big games.

      An elite level defender would not have been conned that easily by Lewin and certainly would not have had his arm raised looking like he was pushing Lewin in the back, alas we know Lovren is no where near elite level.

      His positioning wasn't great at the beginning. The long ball could have been easily intercepted, but he missed the header.

      Cost the club 5 points in his last 5 Premier League starts.  Simple as that.

      How he can look his team mates in the eye when he goes in to training each morning is beyond me. Must be embarrassing for the lad.

      Should have been fu**ed off a long, long time ago and he isn’t a Liverpool centre back in a million years.

      Yeah, I agree, and whilst it wasn't a pen because he dived, why did he put his hands on the back of that c**t? Initially, I didn't blame  him, but the more i think about it, the more I believe he was at fault and the reason why we conceded.

      Apart from 'that', thought he played well.
      But 'that' cost us points. Has been costing us points. And will continue to.

      Horrible officiating but the thing is, don’t give a bad ref an opportunity to make a bad call. Lovren should have never let that dork get behind him to start with.

      Very, very soft penalty and I’d rather those type weren’t given - even to us - BUT it was there to be given.

      The source / origin of the mistake from Lovren is same again.......exactly like him vs Spuds and Moreno a few weeks ago.

      There’s a lot to like about his game - he’s quick enough and can pick a pass. The trouble is he just doesn’t have the concentration to play at this level without these brain farts.

      He switches off (just for a fraction) and ends up out of shape / line and then can’t resist the rush of blood to overcompensate.

      In my opinion it’s almost impossible to change how an individual reacts in that moment to a mistake. That’s complex brain wiring and driven by historical experience. You have to work on the original errors and concentration.

      That wasn’t an inch perfect pass into Calvert Lewin - ultimately it was a hopeful ball that Lovren himself made into a good ball.

      On a human level I feel for him because he seems like a decent type.

      Hopefully January brings a significant upgrade.

      Completely agree his biggest criticism he just switches off an then to correct his errors just doesn't think.

      Yesterday he was ball watching and let CL get a away from him, the ball was punted up and he panicked by missing a easy clearing header and to compound it all as he was probably annoyed with himself he went up way too tight inviting the dive.

      No need to feel so much for him. He just earned a new contract and gets paid millions no matter what. Push or no push, pen or not.

      I’m sick and tired of his mistakes. Close to not wanting to see him in our shirt anymore.

      had a good game today.

      to be honest, apart from the everton f*ck up, he improved a lot since Spurs game. He's always going to be a 3rd choice CB for me, decent player.

      Good game indeed. That anticipation on that header was dope. For all the crap we give him surely we can give him some love today? ‘‘Tis the the season!

      Brave header, good goal, if only his defending was up to scratch. Although had a good game on the whole.

      Excellent goal. That being said, he would have been at fault for Defoe's goal. So...yeah  :P

      Think he has been doing well enough in general ... apart from the odd mistake that costs us points ;)
