First 60 mins we were excellent. took our eye of the ball for a while afterwards which is understandable because we was so dominant. but we've conceded 8 goals in our last 3 league games which is a little worry. but we can't complain can we . thought Slob was excellent today.

Agree10 Disagree0

Kelleher brain fart, Red card v Fulham, leading 5-1. I don't think its a worry to be honest, Konate should be back very soon which will improve us a lot defensively too. Hopefully he can keep away from injuries for the rest of the season.

22 Dec 2024 19:32:45
Slob was up there w Mo for MOM for me.

22 Dec 2024 19:36:45
I would of kept Kelleher in the starting 11, I think the defence look far more composed with him between the sticks, also coincides with konate being out injured.

22 Dec 2024 20:06:34
In the interests of fairness I think we should acknowledge that Ali should’ve done better with the first and the third goals today.

Kelleher got pelters when he had a poor game against Newcastle and we were constantly told how Ali would’ve saved all 3 goals. Unfairly I thought.

Well today we saw that although Ali is undoubtably the best in the world he is still capable of a brain fart or two. The first was a simple save if he’d just moved his feet and the third was a looping cross he should’ve come for.

Thought we were superb today other than that. Could’ve scored double figures, the scoreline flattered Spurs big time.

Ange has to be the most stubborn, talentless manager I’ve seen in the premier league for a long time. He was just asking to be spanked today and just stood there shaking his head for 90 minutes.

22 Dec 2024 20:21:18
I hope they stick w Ange tho Beckers. Win lose or draw never a dull game w them!

22 Dec 2024 20:27:07
conceded 10 goals in the last 5.

Not concerned at all. teams are taking moments to score goals.

I don't get the sense at all that we have been poor defensively as a unit.

22 Dec 2024 20:42:25
In the last few games we have had a back line with no Konate, Trent only back from injury, Robbo sent off, Tsimikas out injured, Bradley out injured and Quansah having a wobble- all things considered not doing too bad!

22 Dec 2024 20:56:32
Was a fantastic game to watch and most importantly we won it as well.

As supporters of a club the 2 things we surely look for is entertainment and success. They don’t always go hand in hand but under Klopp and now Slot we as LFC fans have been extremely lucky.

Over the last 8 years only a handful of clubs have been more successful but have they been as entertained doing it

I suppose only they can answer that.

Merry Xmas to you all.

22 Dec 2024 21:08:03
Once again, I thought the game was brilliant. Fun to watch and Mo is just incredible, 15 goals and 11 assists in the 16 PL games.

It’s a good thing that we still have ways we can improve but, as I usually say …. If you’d asked me at the start of the season ……. P 25, W 21, D 3, L 1.

Top of the PL and CL Qualifier tables.

Enjoy the festive season and wishing everyone a sincere Merry Christmas a happy and healthy New Year.

22 Dec 2024 21:33:57
Quite the entertainment needed before Christmas. The lads done well. A few silly mistakes but hopefully Mr slot sorts them out.
Hopefully the players out with injury come back playing well. If they do were going to be racking up at least 70 points this season.

22 Dec 2024 22:10:07
I always thought there might be a chance that you really are just a negative fan neggy but that post has convinced me you are just trolling trying to get a reaction.

Fair play if that’s what floats your boat I suppose. I’ll just bare that in mind before I bother responding in future.

22 Dec 2024 22:18:23
I think we lost momentum when we made subs and that gave spurs a lift. A fantastic win though.

23 Dec 2024 00:06:23
We were always going to concede with how pitiful Spurs played and how easy it was to create loads of big chances n score for fun. It's just the way the game is.

That being said, I agree that we need to start cutting down on the amount of goals we have been conceding of late cos some of them were very avoidable, even today. Just saying.

23 Dec 2024 00:13:36
Great performance and result.

Honestly I’m so so impressed with Slot.

Gravenberch looked like a pub player before this season, most - including me - had completely written him off.
Konate - similarly looked out of his depth and inconsistent before this season.
Curtis Jones - had no future in the first team.
Luis Diaz had a rough season last season

And the biggest worries have been Mac Allister and Szoboszlai.
Mac Allister has certainly been improving in the last few games a bit today Szobo looked back to his best.

I’d say that was Szobo’s best game for Liverpool.

Slot and his team of coaches have improved almost (Darwin) every Liverpool player this season.
Even Mo looked finished last season, this season he’s been incredible.

Credit to Slot, the coaches and the players for putting the work in.

23 Dec 2024 00:14:48
Beckers, this is why I do not engage in the tired, "Oh, inser player here would have done this or that" mess. There is literally NO way to prove that esp. when we know "insert player here" has been in the same position and still messed up.

23 Dec 2024 00:33:19
I don't class Walter as a troll BP, think he's just playing a character for laughs, not necessarily to wind anyone up. I get a kick out of him, because I think we all have a mate like that, the mate that was in the pub tonight talking about how we shouldn't have conceded 3, the 3 contracts situation, that sort of thing.

Totally get it if it's not your thing, just wanted to defend him a little as I enjoy him as part of the banter on here.

23 Dec 2024 01:09:08
Alisson is back and people are still talking about Kelleher?
The mind boggles. It's apples and bowling balls.

23 Dec 2024 02:51:58
@ Beckers - the first conceded goal was all on Macallister and his slack play, I’m not sure how Alisson is supposed to be at fault. Third goal was a hit on the half volley from like 6 yards out after poor defending from Robbo and Van Dijk. Alisson was not at fault for any of the goals, and Kelleher wouldn’t have done any better. Alisson also made a great stop at 5-3 as well which stopped their momentum building further. Kelleher was criticized because he made a glaring error that clearly lead to a goal vs Newcastle - nothing Alisson did lead to a goal, and the suggestion that he was somehow lacking is frankly laughable.

23 Dec 2024 03:06:32
Well said Rugby, Walter is sound.

23 Dec 2024 04:43:11
Credit to the referee who didn't balls decisions up quite as badly as others have done.

23 Dec 2024 05:12:24
Absolutely superb performance from Liverpool, after a few weeks of slightly sub-par performances. Defensively not exactly perfect but no matter how poor Spurs’ form is, to go there and win in such a manner is quite the statement.

Gravenberch was solid as ever, TAA handled Son with surprising ease, but my highlight was Szoboszlai. He started with a spark last season, faded and has been under some criticism. But today I think we saw what we can give to the team - the kind of nonstop running that Klopp’s midfielders gave, but with quality they never had. His link-up play, particularly in the air was so good and his pace is a tremendous asset. The third goal was a great example of what he gives us when we play this well.

23 Dec 2024 06:05:34
We simply need Konate and a LB.

23 Dec 2024 06:13:41
Szoboszlai, what a player, you can hit the ball long to him and he can hold it up, he’s always using his brain thinking about what runs to make and what position to take up, a perfect blend of an engine that never gives out, confidence and swagger to take risks, elite athleticism to press and charge into space, excellent strength in 50/ 50s, all he needs is a bit more selfishness in goal scoring situations, but his awareness of his team mates in and around the box is supreme. Man of the match for me along with mo.

And diaz making that run in the closing stages from one side of the field to the other curving into the box, insane!

23 Dec 2024 06:50:48
@Walter is the forum equivalent of Max Wall ……

“I lost both me parents when I were 5, ah but what a game of cards” ?.

23 Dec 2024 07:02:57
Love Szob as a player. I think at times he could be more selfish and take a shot himself, but it’s a small critique. Top class attributes elsewhere.

RE Neggy - of course he’s doing it to wind people up! In what way is it just for giggles if the giggles don’t come from the wind up reactions he gets? If nobody took him on with his posts, he’d most likely disappear.

I could understand the comedic value if it was on occasion. But sitting as we are in all comps and it being regular just becomes tiresome and eye roll worthy for me.

23 Dec 2024 08:21:37
The first goal keystone cops defending all round, from Trent’s hospital pass, to Mac, then Mac losing the ball cheaply, through to van Dijk and Gomez going “no, you Claude” to each other, not closing and turning their back when Maddison went to shoot, Allison was caught blind by it. Not massively sure he’s the one at fault after all that calamity. I’d expect Slot would have a few words to say to them about that.

23 Dec 2024 08:53:26
Guys I’m not bashing Ali at all I just thought we should judge him the same as we did Kelleher.

The first was a good yard maybe more, inside the post. If he dives he saves it but he was caught on his heels. You could say he was unsighted, and he was but he still had enough time to dive and get something on it.

The third, as soon as that ball is crossed I’m shouting ‘keeper! ’ It was a looping cross dropping on the edge of the 6 yard box. I’d like to see the keeper come and punch that away. He’s not coming through players it’s a simple punch clear.

Both minor errors but errors nonetheless. I just felt that some criticised Kelleher for conceding the rocket from Isak and the close range effort from Gordon and said Ali would save both. Yesterday was a reminder that Ali is not some mythical goal saving God, he will concede goals he should save too.

23 Dec 2024 09:29:33
What did you make of Salah's performance Viktor?
Did he look finished and washed up?

23 Dec 2024 11:02:07
But Gomez was excellent today. He just needs to return to being excellent every day. The goals conceded were just aberrations: the 1st from (Ed’s pet hate) Mac pretending to be injured, the others after we turned off the gas.
Most impressive performance I have seen since we blew away Leicester in the title winning year.

23 Dec 2024 18:08:15
Not sure what I've done this time. I am a simple guy and say it as it is. No troll here no character just me a fan.
I've been on this site since the torres transfer to Chelsea and been me the whole time.
Being a troll or playing a character for that long is some commitment. ??.
