Salah and Mane are bound to be fatigued physically and mentally. If Sterling is tired, out comes Grealish. If De Bryune is tired, out comes B.Silva or Gundogan. If Mahrez is tired, out comes Foden or Jesus. Asking Liverpool to compete against that with only Minamino and Origi was always going to be difficult in the long run. I don't think moaning about the squad is valid after tonight. Most of our 11 hadn't played since Tottenham, 9-10 days ago or whatever it was. That was probably the biggest issue with our performance and being a bit off it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On one hand you'll have a more fit squad, but on another hand you'll risk your players losing sharpness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how many games that is before the end of the season but we'd need to be within about 6 points for that game to have any meaning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted December 29, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted December 29, 2021 That is a side I can be genuinely proud of. That was brilliant. It's an XI that has absolutely no business beating this Liverpool side yet they just never fully caved in. That's exactly the kind of performance I can resonate with. All the analysis you do and all the interpretations people have yet sometimes it really is just thorough desperation that gets you the points at times. They should be proud of themselves after that.

Klopp undone himself though, almost negated saying we deserved the win by saying 'if we had played how we're able to play, I think we'd have been the winner.' What's he saying here? Have I misunderstood him saying that if we had rolled over for Liverpool it's easier for him? As opposed to try and nullify their main threats and win it how we want to? Annoys me when managers think they can dictate how other teams should set up against them. Pep is the absolute worst for it. When teams sit back and defend he gets all pissy. Attack his teams but lose and he comes out with 'they played really well, credit to them, they're a good side...'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool, and Everton, are subject to abuse that is because of the city they're from. It's bullshit and if it was any other city it would not happen. That twat @Dan tried to say it was because it gets a reaction, ok...well I'd love to see him come to Lime Street and call someone a 'bin dipper'. The point of 'banter' (horrific word) is that it's grudgingly accepted and light hearted. The stuff about Liverpool is not. They get called 'sensitive' 'victims' but no other city gets the vitriol chucked at them that Liverpool does. I know Leicester fans like the back of my hand, they're the same as Hull.
