That was disgraceful.
The first 45 mins is up there with the worst I've seen Liverpool play, not just this season, but ever in my life. Was Roy Hodgson managing us tonight? It felt like it.
Second half was slightly better. They sat further back so that meant we saw more of the ball. As usual we did nothing with it though. We have very little pace or width in the team so we're never breaking down a team who sits men behind the ball, we haven't all season. I knew at half time the game was over.
Sick of this group of players turning up when they can be arsed but when the going gets tough they're just not interested. Looking at that first half, all 11 of them thought they'd just turn up and simply breeze this game. Where was the fight? The passion? We were second to every ball, lost every 50-50.
Usually I go through the players one by one and give a brief description of how I thought they played but tonight I won't bother, all 11 of them were garbage and should be ashamed of themselves.
Thought klopp got it wrong making changes around the 65-70 mark too. Where we 3-0 down at that point as well? Piss poor. Changes should be been made at half time or even earlier! I don't agree with him taking lallana or mane off either. Ok, both were poor tonight, but who wasn't? You should always keep your goal threats on the pitch. Mane is capable of creating something out of nothing at any time.
Still a dozen games to go, but gut feeling says top four is gone. There will be another 3-4 games like this left this season.
Team of F***ing bottlers. F***ing shithouse performance that.
