Saka puts it in on second try. Can't say it hasnt been coming. They've been pressing rather well.

Missing some key players today. That just means some rotation but the good news is that the bench has lots of good options if necessary. 

Sad stuff. RIP.

I'll rewatch Predator today.

Think the last Tekken I played wad Tekken Tag Tournament, where I played bowling more than fighting. 

Its such a weird fighting game imo. They have so many variations and yet when you watch tournaments or any pros playing its almost like they drop all the variations for very few strict combinations that work right. Still, super fun game and definitely one of the better games of the last few years.

I don't think they'd have done that with the penalty at only 2-0. Don't think Nunez should have been near either though, as much as I like him. Mac Allister should have been on it

Fair point. I never thought they'd ever give it to Joe. Although giving it to Nunez is more for his confidence more than anything else. In the end it really didn't matter as we beat them but if we get an op like that against Arsenal I doubt he's getting the chance.

Spent two hours playing the new Tekken today and I now understand why so many people are praising this game. Its fluid and all the little things like heat rush, etc just make combat so much more fun. 

I just hope Diogo is fine and there aren't any problems with the knock he got. I think we're going into the Arsenal game with a team that has gained quite a lot of confidence. Also, special shout to Konate who has really played super sweeper behind Bradley allowing him to play much higher up the pitch. I was really hoping they gave Joe a crack at the penalty just to get him on the score-sheet and I am hoping this is the year he gets his first goal because even he has improved massively in the last few weeks.

As shit as Chelsea have been and done themselves no favours, Tierney is giving Liverpool every single 50/50. He’s such a Homer.

Have to say this is true. But, having said all that Chelsea really haven't been all that troubling and Conor Bradley is having another good game.

I think Joe should take this penalty. Its time the boy scored a goal for us.

Bradley is going to be great for us in the long run.

What exactly is Chilwell's game tonight? See how many times you can try to simulate before you get a red?

I do wonder if he'd do better with the current Liverpool squad because its a high energy game based on turning around the opponent. It might work but I really do wonder who in the midfield he'd use to get it to work right.

Does anyone really think De Zerbi is under serious consideration? Brighton have won 3 Premier League games since the end of September...

I think he's just a name being thrown into the hat really. The club already know who their target is, and they are just waiting for that person to say yes. You don't get the news that went public two months in advance and just sit on it.

Think this is just the media blowing up things that didn't exist in the first place.

Virgil has now come out saying he didn't mean what he said and that the club is okay, and Klopp is saying it too. I think everyone knows the score in any event. Can't wait to hear the club make an announcement on the new manager and DoF but first we have big games to get out of the way.

Mario Wonder. I only call it Mario Trippy because it goes bat shit weird when you get a Wonder Flower in most stages. 

You're not wrong there. Its a superb game in its own right and I had such a good time playing it too.

Its a good time to see all these players coming back from injury with Thiago next on the list. Not going to lie I love watching him play with the backline and the sooner we get him back the better it is going to be for us. 

I just hope the team takes this as a good reason to give the gaffer a nice farewell and puts in more performances like we saw against Norwich. I doubt we'd see Klopp managing a national team because the management dynamics are very different, and he seems to be more of a day-to-day kind of person to get momentum going. But if he ever did go manage an NT I'd love to see him take Germany as his next project. 

My favourite Klopp signing will always be Andy Robertson. Those months when we saw him play one game and then just benched were so weird but what a player he turned out to be for us. 

Purposely leaving out the other gamble signing in Mo.

He'd be shit with us, imo. He's tactically so far off from the type of football that gets the most out of our squad.

Played some of the best counter-attack football at Madrid though and I think he still has one last big dance in him. Having said that if we got Alonso I think that would be the first choice.

Massive news that seems to have come from nowhere. It'll be interesting to see where Klopp ends up and who Liverpool bring in. Fingers crossed for Mourinho.

Oddly enough I think Jose would do rather well at Liverpool. He’s a fan favourite at Roma now and even though he’s past some of his best years I think he wouldn’t be that bad of an appointment here. The only thing that would work against him is the legacy Klopp has built and whether he could come in and get things rolling super quick. I think he actually could. 

I feel like Salah is gone in the summer with this news although I think he was always one foot out the door within the next two seasons anyways. 

Jurgen Klopp to step down as Liverpool manager at end of season - BBC Sport

Shocking news but he's been running full tilt and had this team at the same pace for a while now. Can only wish him well. 

Thanks for everything Jurgen. Some crazy moments for us fans.

Erm, wtf is this?

Saw it and I thought it was some kind of joke but apparently it isn't. Why would you want to be at a stadium and in a bed of all things is beyond me.
