      Whats gone on with Mane?, he does not look the same player from last year

      The year before you mean. He looked a lot like the player from last year unfortunately.

      Pissed off with that. Draw them away, not bad, but draw at home against 10 men.
      We never seem to be able to take advantage of these situations.
      Robbo had to be changed once it was evident he wasn’t on it. Same for Mane.
      Poor game management with the obvious in front of your eyes.
      All Robbo has over Tsimikas at the mo is perhaps tenacity.
      His crossing and corners were terrible.

      Mane needs a serious kick up the backside that level of performance is not acceptable if we want to win the PL.

      Jota was also poor but still a better option up top than Bobby.

      I feel we might regret not signing an attacking player. Are we the only club in the PL without an actual striker?



      All the FSG fans so sure we don't need something from the transfer market?

      He’d be the first out for me when it comes to our attackers, get him off to Spain or Italy and use the funds to get Haalands release clause paid next summer.

      Fair play to that horrible lot from west london. I don’t think if the tables were reversed we would have held out.

      Only positive is we are 4 points ahead of the same teams than last season

      Most of his saves were easy though. Our strikers kept them in the game, unfortunately...

      That should have been a win all day.

      Chelsea had actually the better chances in the 2nd. We had ball possession but very little high percentage chances, a lot of random stuff in/around the penalty box.

      I think from now on Kostas has to be first choice. Robbo is just worse than him, look alone at the corners!

      Overall I can live with the result. Chelsea is superstrong, probably would have beaten us 11 vs. 11.

      I thought we were disappointing. We were a bit fortunate they lost a man and tbh, had it been 11 v 11 I suspect we would have lost the game. Played well early in both halves but mostly we looked a bit lacking in ideas.

      Elliott had another excellent game and was our brightest spot, things didn't quite work for Mo, he was lively but fluffed his lines with that chance on his right foot. I thought VVD played well and another game under his belt is good news. I thought Robbo was off his game and Mane (despite his contribution for the penno) looked sloppy on the ball.

      Still, long lonmg way to go and we've got 7 from a possible 9. Could be a lot worse.

      Mane heavily involved twice in the goal there were many other players as sub par as he was

      I wouldn't say Robbo is worse than Kostas I mean he only just returned from injury. Still though Kostas is in better form and deserved to start.

      Well I don't think Ketia or Ox coming on would have made a difference

      Disappointing we just ran out of ideas after about 20 minutes in the second half. Having said that, they are probably the best team in the league who can defend with 10 men.

      Would have liked to have seen Thiago on earlier and Keita come on.

      Trent should have been overlapping Salah and putting hard straight crosses which would have made it less likely for Mendy to come and catch. Oh well, its not a loss and a point before the game would not have been a bad result. On we go.

      Not sure if we will regret that point or not - but they are a very good side - we can get better and we are unbeaten

      Behave you've made yourself look an idiot with that sweeping statement.

      Where have you been the last 3 seasons? He's been the best left back in Europe or thereabouts

      This is something that makes me also think. Usually you shoot from distance not to make a goal but to use a reflection or insecurity from the GK. But for that to work one player has to go towards the GK when the other shoots from distance. You never see that with us. The reason is probably that Klopp does not want us to shoot from distance, so they do not train for it.
