Off-side from the shin down lol. I wouldn't criticize the officials for not calling it though. I criticize our freakin' defense on these set plays. ffs.

*Mourinho last season for chelsea flashbacks*
Still a strong first team but that bench is a little worrying when it comes to the champions league, hazard needs to speed up his return.
Fingers crossed for Bats though.
You're forgetting Man Utd's thrilling 0-0

Why does he wear the mask!?
Could be more goals in the City/Chelsea game tbf, but if not this definitely will be
So perhaps let Phil go for 100 million and go shopping.
Utd wll get their 0-0 tomorrow so MOTD is safe.

anyone who thinks vvd would fix this is naive
I'm so fucking sick of our defence. dunno why klopp is smiling, he is failing at his job.

I am sure if the player is level with the ball then it isn't offside. But I could be wrong, the offside rules are shit.

It could always be worse. You could support United.

And reassess how comfortable Mignolet's spot in the line up is, if he wants to be our first choice why isn't he dominating every single part of his box when we have a corner?

Doesn't matter if he's offside if Mignolet and his weak-ass hands gets rid of that.

No serious Liverpool fan was saying that. City are going to run away with this league easily.

I'm pretty sure I'd still have hair if I supported another team!
A fair result in the end, I think. Hopefully this will be the kick up the butt we need to get some defenders in.
Baffling that we still can't defend set pieces. What has been going on in the traning ground in the summer?

Depends on their defence too tbh
Don't underestimate the immense power of Antonio Conte.

It depends how quickly their new defence gels.

Fucking Liverpool man, they know how to ruin your weekend.
"This could be our year!"
tbf every liverpool fan i know has been wrist slitting all summer over their transfers
how do you end up with moreno starting the first game of the season ffs
Its been really tough as a united fan for the last 27 years. Well. The last 4 havn't been great anyway.
Forum is usually a bit slower at weekends iirc. Nobody is bored at work lol.

All those missed chances are going to haunt me tonight. Wow we can really use someone like Keita to patrol that midfield, Henderson isn't up to doing it.

Not the 3-1 I was expecting but this is just as typical. How the hell did Klopp think defense isn't something we had to invest in all summer? He wasted his whole time on Van Dijk, when Rudiger, Manolas or even Koulibaly could've been possibilities. He gets Robertson for LB of all people and doesn't even play him. Wasted his time on Keita and now Coutinho wants to leave too.
... He would've fit right in at Arsenal.
Was he as hard headed at Dortmund? I don't understand what he sees in our depth. Players like Origi, Gomez, Grujic and Alexander-Arnold are not bench worthy for a top-4 club and need to gain more experience elsewhere. Whereas the likes of Klavan, Moreno and Mignolet need to get the boot already.
It really stinks because Klopp is the right man for the job but these things are just not acceptable anymore.
Best wishes.

Yep. Salah had a good second half and I wouldn't want to judge him too harshly after his first proper game but he should have had more than one. Great chance for Wijnaldum near the end as well.

Hey, I'm in. Goals are great, makes for a more entertaining MOTD

Klopp's late game subs were pretty stupid. Watford weren't able to settle into a rhythm until Firmino and Salah were taken off.

Carra is gonna explode
he took off the attack threat and forgot he has no defence.

Cares more about the club than the majority of the ones wearing the shirt today.
