3 points is the obvious objective and that's a great outcome but c'mon we really have zero killer instinct atm.
{Ed666's Note - Our transitions and counter attacks are absolute garbage. We were spoiled with Salah, Mane & Bobby.
17 Oct 2026 18:43:57
You can't have a transition with a tree like isak up there in the middle. Took his goal well infact brilliant but boy he punctured all our attacks just by standing like a tree in middle so much so that barcola looked bad making certain decisions because he just didn't want to pass to isak. He just keeps standing in between defenders.
{Ed666's Note - what was barcolas excuse for the counter at the end? Isak wasn’t on the pitch
17 Oct 2026 18:55:22
Was Isak to blame for the late counter attacks failing after he was subbed off?
17 Oct 2026 19:05:10
This is definitely the place to come if you want some negativity.
17 Oct 2026 19:24:03
Wow did we let the throw in coach leave? As i watched our left back 4 times in a row throw it to a Brentford player, i don't think he was the only one either. good 3 points though well done lads. YNWA.
17 Oct 2026 19:33:12
The most obvious chance barcola had made his mind to pass but koumas fell and that just resulted in a brain freeze for barcola.
You guys miss the point though, all counter attacks happened post isak none when he was on the pitch. that's the problem i am talking about. He just stands like a tree dead center.
17 Oct 2026 19:53:36
Lost in fairness it was against 10 and 9 men.
Isak has lots of faults but crazily he's scored all of our league winning goals this season yet all he gets is pelters.
{Ed666's Note - his shot for the goal was going wide hadn’t it deflected off the defender. He was pathetic today.
17 Oct 2026 20:19:56
We were shocking at counters and in particular Barcola showed some real poor decision making, I actually think Wirtz played ok today didn't do much wrong but wasn't a star performer either. Isak took his goal brilliantly but outside of those 2 touches did absolutely nothing. Biggest problem is Our attacking play has absolutely no fluidity, our speed of passing and play is way too slow and just allows the opposition to get back into a low block which then doesn't suit players like Barcola who operate best in space.
Rio and Munoz were real bright sparks and were very aggressive in taking on there defender!
{Ed666's Note - Apparenty Wirtz created more chances today than he’s ever done in a Liverpool shirt? Can someone corroborate that stat please or correct me if I’m wrong?
17 Oct 2026 21:02:03
Problem is Barcola went through twice today 1on 1 with the keeper both times his decision making wasn't down to anyone except him.

"We really have zero killer instinct".
What are you talking about? We've scored 8 goals in the CL and PL in the past 4 days - both away from home and in the case of Brentford, a ream that hadn't lost a game this season.
The overwhelming criticism of the team, week after week and irrespective of results, is genuinely pathetic.
Someone asked 'should we be happy with the win' which is, when you think about it and given the team with the most points at the end of the season wins the competition, not the most perceptive question in the world. Of course, whoever it was then went on to say how poor we were and had a go at one or two players. There's nothing like getting behind the team and supporting the coach and players as they try to build something. This constant whining about a lack of perfection is sad.

Ed666 was It mate? In that case the league will surely award it as an own goal?
{Ed666's Note - I thought it was going wide mate but my eyesight ain’t great and I’d still give Katie Price the best 3 seconds of her life and that includes foreplay and a cigarette
18 Oct 2026 04:47:39
I thought leaving out koumas after that lask performance is major question mark on iraola. He went for the price tag instead of continuing with a confident player.
Our attacks will work much better with koumas barcola munoz and wirtz. While this was just a theory before i think after LASK and 10min yesterday we can say we have enough proof supporting the theory.
18 Oct 2026 07:27:13
The Isak shot was going wide? You sure about that mate?
Also I think Barcola's excuse was he was knackered at the end of the game, his hands being on his knees the last two counter attacks after running the length of the pitch kind of gave that away. Cue the usual 'he's a 100 million pound player, he should be able to play 180 minutes straight even if he didn't have a preseason'.
18 Oct 2026 08:22:51
My f***...now Isak is blamed for our counters.
AAARRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!
18 Oct 2026 07:56:22
Ed666
3 seconds? You stallion lol.
{Ed666's Note - What’s can I say mate I’m gifted

@Fifth, you would thing we lost 3-0 like Chelsea and Spurs did at Brentford with many of the comments Ivebeen reading here and online.
For me, it's as if you are not allowed to be happy when your team wins while at the same time, recognising the flaws and the need to improve in areas A, B & C.
Frankly it seems like it has become some kind of badge of honour to rake your team and players over the coals after they win (esp. at a ground where nobody does) just to prove some kind of "I have higher standards for my club" nonsense that no one gives a crap about.
Really sad, indeed.
