Holy fuck lmao. I'm going to go bury my head in some sand

Grealish turning into Messi with 3 assists and 2 goals holy fuck these score lines

They destroyed our right side with the ball over the top, which many teams try to do. Usually Gomez has the recovery pace to make up for Trent's poor defensive capabilities, but Grealish was too good for him. I can understand a player getting destroyed by one with world class ability, which in my opinion Grealish possesses, but Gomez getting destroyed by Ollie Watkins is worrying. Gomez can look world class at times but he puts in disasterclass performances too often now.

Klopp should have a defensive plan B when teams are clearly exploiting our weaknesses with the high line, like keep a CM tight to Trent. Constant injuries to Alisson is worrying too.

Firmino has been awful for a while, just never looks like he's going to score. Salah was the only player with finishing ability playing today.

Still think we're favourites to win the league with Alisson, Mane and Thiago back fit.

Line-up after int break I'd go with if everyone is fit except Alisson:
Adrian
Trent
Fabinho
Van Dijk
Robbo
Thiago
Henderson
Wijnaldum
Salah
Minamino
Mane

yeah this just seems like a fatigued match my friend. i wouldnt worry if i were you.

I would.

Months ago there were whispers that Van Dijk is better than Ramos, while matches like this really expose the reality : he's the dutch lovren

he isnt.
Ramos made some ugly matches also.
And playing with Adrian and Gomez isnt the same than playing with Pepe and Casillas and with Varane and Courtois

Ramos was top, top level for how-many years. You simply can't compare the two.

VvD was a season's fluke. How many goals conceeded do liverpool average this season ?

Defence destroyed by the mighty Leeds and team trashed by worldbeaters Aston Villa.
