      Very annoying, went for 2  0, in the Prediction League. Worse still, keeps Chelsea with a slender chance of a top four finish.

      Now need 4 point from 3 games to finish top 4.

      Think we only need one win if it's against Chelsea.

      Not surprised by the result, disappointed yes. We only seemed to be playing in second gear against a team desperate not to lose.
      Was annoyed by the crap referee, how that was not a pen when Ings was barged off the ball beggars believe.
      Also the punch to Ing's stomach wtf.

      Anyways 4th place is still in our hands, roll on Tuesday.

      Max points Chelsea can get is 75...we are now on 71..so it's 4 points needed.

      Chelsea play us and Huddersfield at home and Swansea and Newcastle away. Got to win all 4 to have any chance.

      But if we beat Chelsea the max they can get is 72 and we'd be on 74 so it would be all over.

      I think we were about 13 points clear of Chelsea, if they beat us it could be 2 - I think we will qualify for cl but it’s not good enough just yet, it’s much much better don’t get me wrong but Karius Moreno Lovren Gomez Klavan - they are not even squad players
      Our back 4 is tta Matip Vvd Robertson

      F**k with that and u have problems

      For all the stick I'm expecting Moreno to get, Gomez was worse.
      To be honest All the back four were poor today...

      One positive is that the two cl legs are Tuesday-  Wednesday instead of last time Wednesday- tuesday so less of a need for rotation on Saturday

      Didn’t watch the game but it’s never good to throw away a 2-0 lead, and I had 2-1 in the prediction league.

      Before the game I would have settled for a draw and no injuries and well, we got that.

      Don’t think getting 4 points from Stoke and Brighton or just winning at Chelsea is going to be that though so we should still be making top 4 at the end.

      We certainly missed our 2 regular fullbacks,I thought it was a certain 3 points when we were 2-0 up.

      I think his point was with five points needed from four games, let's hope we don't need to beat them. I'd rather get top four sown up in the next two games.

      Quote from Robby The Z
      Did you see the bit in added time when Ox had the ball forward left, two defenders came out to mark him and Moreno was unmarked a bit wider and a bit back? The obvious football decision was to tap it back to Alberto, but you could almost see Ox look back, see who it was and think "right, I know what happens if I pass to him..."

      We saw it. 12 months ago. Came on as a late sub to see out the win, got possession in his own half with only the keeper to beat. Ran 30 yards with the ball and tried to score from the halfway line.  The ball ended up nearer the corner flag.

      The collapse struck again. When one goal went in, another soon followed. Better though that the glitches are out of the system before Tuesday, as away goals count double.

      The ref was awful, unless he's been on Mars for the past 3 years, he should know that they are just a bunch of kickers and hackers with a poor disciplinary record. VAR dealt with that in the cup game, but we didn't have it this time, and the difference in refereeing decisions was stark.

      One thing Klopp can't argue about is the pitch. West Brom are fully entitled to do whatever they like with their own pitch, as are any other home team. That's what home advantage is about. I didn't notice it  during the game, but I remember the times when we had to play in unplayable ploughfields, waterlogged pitches and icerinks, really dangerous pitches to play in and we coped. So a dry pitch on a nice weather day should not be that big an issue. 

      Well done Salah on breaking the 40 goal mark, and Danny for his goal, after so many injury problems. And with that we move on, hopefully back to normal service resumed next week, when results really do matter.

      Not that worried about 4th spot,It is ours, nor am i worried about Roma...

      For me it is not so much about rotation, I understand the need for it, It is more about the players (Defenders) being bought on for Strikers and Midfielders that invite pressure unnecessarily...

      If we were to do this in the Roma game then...

      To be honest, not a fan of bringing on a defensive substitution,  can see why because of west brom's style but taking salah off and leaving bobby totally isolated was a mistake in my book, still doesn't mean that both goals shouldn't have been defended better

      Weird thing is had we stuck tow or three players on the half way line for their free kick then they would have had to stick at least as many of their, if not four, back there to defend against our player breaking away and scoring...

      But yes It should have been defended better

      Well the biggest concern for me was that Karius hardly came off his line for all of their corners. Balls were swung in at catchable or punchable height on or around the six yard box several times and he got nowhere near any of them. Yes he has to come thru traffic to make a attempt but he was nowhere. Just a spectator.

      Had the same problem with Mig. Both are good shot stoppers but both are poor in the air. Alarm bells.

      I said to myself would give Karius 8 games when he got back in to assess if good enough and I'm still not convinced he is. Yes he has made one or two really good saves but just feel there will be a head explosion around corner and you are correct not sure he commands his box to the standard required
