Xhaka is pure shite , I needs to realise that

We could have had Klopp 5 years ago if not for Kroenke, spending a little bit of money (that was made by the club) does not appease me, I'm no AFTV mug.
Re: AWAY to the Victims SAT AUGUST 24th 17:30pm
15 minutes to go and I can already sum up this shit. Emery got his tactics beyond wrong, allowing them to continuously whip crosses in and all in the hope we might nick one on the break, fucking brain dead Add to that leaving the likes of Xhaka out there and it's fucking laughable management. I know I'l get the usual "it's too early in the season" but fuck that, the guy isn't up to it and should be gone. We are into his 2nd season and we are getting raped away at a supposed rival again.

And he alone ?? Have you not watched xhaka, Ceballos, auba, monreal, maitland-niles and Willock ? A mixture of gutless spineless and useless b.astards. The spineless mentality is more a part of our dna than anything else these days
For the record, I wanted auba sold in the summer - a flat track bully who hides and puts in minimal effort if the conditions are not perfect for him
Re: AWAY to the Victims SAT AUGUST 24th 17:30pm
If I was laca I’d tell emery to do one.
Re: AWAY to the Victims SAT AUGUST 24th 17:30pm
Why bother bringing in laca for 10 minutes when we are already 3 down ? If he isn't fit enough to play when the game is in the balance, why risk him now when the game is over ??

Wrong tactics today.
You don’t go to Anfield where Liverpool haven’t lost since MARCH 2018, and play two up and try and play out from the back.
Dixon is crucifying Dick and sadly he’s right - you fight and disrupt. Not try and out play them.
Touch and go or long ball over the top- tikka takka is fine when you’re at home, super confident and on a run.
I’m very sad about today. Fucking deja vu.

Xhaka starting ahead of Torreira? Really?
Sideshow Bob is not the colossus we needed in defence.
Pepe is fast, direct.....but is he TH14 without the end product?

Re: AWAY to the Victims SAT AUGUST 24th 17:30pm
Agree with this 100%. Liverpools strength is the high press. You don't play out from the back like pillocks. Really poor tactics today.clockender1 wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2019 6:09 pmWrong tactics today.

How long did it take henry to score his first goal for us ? How many did henry miss in big games ? Pepe is just in the door ffs

How many of their goals came from us playing out from the back ? Our (dicks) biggest fcuk up today was playing TOO DEFENSIVE and allowing them to gain possession and control the game - we need to go with 3 up top and pin their full backs back instead of allowing them to take the game to us

Hope I'm wrong but I try to be objective rather than go in with blind optimism like a lot of fans, if we had a fully fit squad I think we could give them a real tough game.
Re: AWAY to the Victims SAT AUGUST 24th 17:30pm
I don't disagree with the general synopsis, but I do think that Emery was trying to hit them on the counter and then not actually trying to bypass all of the traffic from the press. We did get pinned in for long spells and coughed the ball up loads because of playing out of the back with short passing. No - they didn't score, but it is still poor from Emery.augie wrote: ↑Sat Aug 24, 2019 6:15 pm

It does look like we are going to carry on from last year with changing tactics every game and not settle on a couple of formations which work. That is going to cost us with a lack of fluid play.
Also, I have to echo the comments from others - Xhaka shouldn't have been picked today.
