Match Day Liverpool v Burnley, Saturday 16th September 15:00

Match chat.

 

[SALTIRE]

4 - 3 Liverpool, whats the point in a defense eh?

 

[Renegade]

Have Burnley ever scored 3 goals?

Apart from against Chelsea.

 

[Pagnell]

Meh. A tight, unconvincing win. But these are the games any team with top 4 ambitions should be winning 9 times in 10. We will concede.

2-1

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

If Sturridge is starting Klopp must be expecting Burnley to bunker down.

 

[snortingfrogs]

Liverpool 2-0 Burnley.

 

[Pagnell]

"Klopp looks absolutely baffled."

I don't know why. This is fucking typical. All the possession, all the play, concede.

Burnley to increase the amount of buses parked from 2 to 3.

 

[Pagnell]

Fortunately, Burnley having 9 men in the penalty area didn't stop us equalising. We need to step this up now.

 

[snortingfrogs]

We really need to be more clinical, wasting so many chances.

 

[Pagnell]

Keeper rightly done for time wasting.

 

[Pagnell]

Looks like it's going to be one of those afternoons.

 

[Pagnell]

And a stonewall penalty on Salah turned down. Piss take.

 

[GodsGift]

35 attempts

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

What are the chances that Liverpool will get more points than Chelsea, City, United and Spurs this season? Looks like a tough ask.

 

[G.B]

More chance of one of them criticisng Klopp ie. none. Imagine the reaction to results like this if this were Rogers team.

 

[snortingfrogs]

Seriously... why the fuck are we so crap at scoring?

 

[Pagnell]

Who?

And pay more attention GB, check the City thread to see my criticism of Klopp.

We should have won today without needing the absolute stonewall that was ignored by the referee. But when a team plays that many men behind the ball, you sometimes need the referee not to make that kind of mistake.

 

[smat]

Did Ox play?

 

[Pagnell]

Briefly. Didn't do much.

 

[smat]

Heh.

 

[HtfcWArrior]

Hehe

 

[AnkleBiter]

Fuck of a start from Burnley, apart from when they got Pulis'ed.
5 points from Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool away. I'd be buzzing with 1!

Spurs? A good chance I'd say thanks to the Wembley factor. The others, probably not, but I personally didn't think we would finish above City or Chelsea anyway. It's difficult to compete with such a blatant disregard of the link between operating income and spend.

United was difficult to judge but they're doing well. Good chance of top 4 for them behind the other two.

See the CL thread mate, the Sevilla draw was on Klopp.

As was today in many ways, he tends to stick to the starting XI for too long for these kind of games.

 

[Pagnell]

To be fair, what kind of changes could he have made earlier to bag a goal? Our best attacking players started the game. The changes that were made had little to no effect on our chances of scoring.

The main issue isn't the speed in which changes are made, it's the almost complete lack of a plan b in games like today. It's rare we finish a game we should have won and the tactics differ in the 90th minute from the 1st. That is on Klopp completely.
