Brentford 3-3 Liverpool: In game and Post Match discussion

That was some step back. Next week against City a draw is best case scenario. If we play them like we played Brentford today they'll win 3-8 or something.

Well played Brentford we had no solution to their long ball and they were first and second to every ball. Some real stale performances from our lads.

I'm not afraid to say we're lucky to get away with a point.
Shocking defensive performance, but credit where credit is due, Brentford were brilliant.

No

that was sh*t defending and sh*t at blowing our chances.

Brentford were crap they got 3 or 4 good chances and scored 3 because how sh*t our back four were.

Really frustrating game. This one legitimately pissed me off Brentford are a rugby team and I hope they get relegated ASAP. I also can’t stand the Joachim Low clone.

Still only team unbeaten!

Stiff sh*t, that’s not gonna last long if we play like that defensively again.

Absolute brain dead the back 5, all starting with Ali being piss poor, looked like he was scared to come out and smash the ball away!

Jones was brilliant - Robbo ? Seriously don’t know what has happened to him

Happy with a point

Disgraceful performance. Salah 100 goals but he cost us the 3 points, all he had to do was finish the chance to kill the game but decided to piss about instead.

Atrocious. Play like that next week and we get another thumping from City.

I literally can not believe how bad we were defensively - literally every time Brentford went forward they were able to open us up so easily. Never seen anything like it.

You cannot blame him. That attempt looked easier than done. I promise you that many of the best would miss it.

We scored 3 goals and still lost to a team that played champioship last year. Defense is to blame!!!

Still only team unbeaten!

May as well had been a defeat to be honest. Wouldn’t have made any difference, we’ve lost the game cushion we had over City.

No

Exactly - Brentford were sh*te really, we were attacking them at will. Still fu**ed it.

You hit the nail on the head with the no answer to the long ball, would have tactically liked a change to combat it and pick up the second ball

Really frustrating game. This one legitimately pissed me off Brentford are a rugby team and I hope they get relegated ASAP. I also can’t stand the Joachim Low clone.

Nonsense. Brentford play some decent football no way they are getting relegated more likely to finish top 10.

Don't begrudge them just because of our shitty defending today.

Jones was brilliant - Robbo ? Seriously don’t know what has happened to him

Robbo plays like always. It's just that now you can compare him to the Greek Scouser. Kostas > Robbo.

One of those mad games from the players and Klopp in that second half.

Alisson has been bang average for a while now. Last season was a shocker and games like today he does you no favors.

You probably don’t remember the Palace game and how good he was

Give Brentford credit for the first goal was clever set piece play but the other two were very poor to give away considering how well we defended thus far in the league. As much as it to say we should of killed the game off at 4-2 missing some chances but to me this result is on the back of poor defending.

Bin Robbo and Matip and Trent who thinks he’s too good for everyone else


Let them sit on the bench for a game or 2 and have a good think about it.

Miller was MOTM when he played against Zaha and The Greek has 2 feet, is quick as well and a bull as well but most importantly his crosses always beat the first man. Sick of Andy’s sh*t crosses in. And Trent thinking he’s Gods gift.

F***ing wasted opportunity with results around us!

You hit the nail on the head with the no answer to the long ball, would have tactically liked a change to combat it and pick up the second ball

At least next week City are not going to go long ball all the time.

Klopp will give the players a rocket and we are going to come out firing next week. The opposition will fear the Anfield roar. Its no coincidence they won last season at Anfield for the first time in almost 20 years because of no fans.

You probably don’t remember the Palace game and how good he was

Yeah he’s been awesome this season - but today he played a 2/10

Virgil MOTM for me for that tackle on Toney at the end of the game when he was through. Could have very easily have ended up with no points.

You cannot blame him. That attempt looked easier than done. I promise you that many of the best would miss it.

Agree, Salah did his job today like he does almost every game. Scored the goal to put us ahead.

sh*t defending cost us plus Alisson had one of his worst games since he's been here.

in any other day if our own defense were focusing on the game rather than playing like amateurs the game would have ended 3-0 because we owned the game and we were in control.

unfortunately this is the worst defensive performance I've seen since Aston Villa.

All 3 goals were a bit sloppy to concede, but there was clearly good coaching in all three of the goals. For example when Canos crosses the ball in they are overloading Trent at the back post and score of the scramble. 

Brentford were also very organised tactically both on the ball and off it. I enjoyed the way they played, even if it was a bit direct at times.

I said at half time that Jones off for Firmino would be the smart move and Klopp did just that, and for a while it worked quite well as Firmino got into pockets and drove forward in a way no one else was doing. Shame we didn't use that option more in the 2nd half to try to probe a bit more, thought there were more goals to be had with a bit more endeavour.
The team seemed to be a bit too comfortable with a one goal lead for much of the 2nd half, resting on the ball in possession a lot more than they should have.

All in all we go clear at the top of the league which is a brilliant place to be. Our rivals already dropped points against Southampton x2, Villa, and Spurs, and this away fixture will likely be a ground where our rivals drop more points.
