Great pass but TAA though. Carry on! Yeah, I think you've read too much into that. Definitely reaching I was insinuating by their standards compared to last season. Liverpool look so much better. Remember Burnley beat them last season at Anfield, that's how average Liverpool were. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toinho 2,210 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Liverpool getting a bit complacent here, gsme won for sure, but fair play to Burnley not giving up and had a couple of good chances! One of the first times I’ve seen a full 90 of Matip, very impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he's a great back up for Robertson. Also..If we can keep Matip fit we have the second best CB in the league after VVD. He's quality. Elliott looks like a player. We look hungry again and it will take an amazing run for anyone to finish above us this season is my prediction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's quality. This is the big question. I think hes been very good since the start of the season and is such a different defender to VVD which is what makes that partnership work so well. Seeing Joe back on the pitch today was also a good sign. Can't wait for Chelsea now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick 2,276 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Would have loved to have gotten a couple more, but a second win and a clean sheet is a great result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Matip gets anywhere near enough plaudits, especially from outside of Liverpool. Understandable when he's playing next to Van Dijk but like you say he's brilliant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMike 3,009 Posted August 21, 2021 Share Posted August 21, 2021 Some people played down the centre back issue for Liverpool last season but just look at that second goal and the positions of the full backs. They wouldn't have been anywhere near as high up without Van Dijk and Matip there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
