There was a moment in the 1st half when JJ blocked a shot it rolled away and I thought Araujo was on the floor and threw his head to clear it whilst a Brighton player was about o shoot.

Did that happen? Or did I just imagine it?

25 Oct 2026 19:42:35
It happened mate, can't believe the passion for the shirt 🔥🔥🔥 incredible Block.

25 Oct 2026 20:00:57
Thanks for confirming!

The commentator said that was a fantastic block by Jacquet. I shouted at the tv. he just threw his head at someone's feet ya blind F@##&**er! that's a block.

I hope ED puts it in his review and comments because its been years since I seen that level of crazy defending. like John Terry in the league cup final when he got knocked out by throwing his head at a Tottenham players foot to stop them shooting.

Have we found our new Origi? Is it too soon to say?

I've got a wife and two kids, but I'd walk away from it all tonight for Big Ron.

I could only listen to it today. It sounded like we played really well in attack in the first half. Defended the lead in the second.
Araujo sounds like he had a great game.
We are definitely turning a corner from last season's dross.
Time to enjoy the ride again.

Huge win that against a very good team, Brighton played really well but we were defensively solid!

Araujo is a beast, exactly what we've been missing. He puts himself about, similar to Jaquet we've been too nice for too long.

He needs to be signed permanently on showing so far.

Wirtz looking good as well without Sob on the pitch (not blaming sob) it's probably an indication that they can't play in the same team.

25 Oct 2026 16:19:35
Wasn't Slob still injured?

25 Oct 2026 16:56:01
Yes he was.

25 Oct 2026 17:11:34
Just as well Arajao and Jacquer were beasts, as the midfield certainly weren't. Brighton dominated as they won virtually every midfield duel. I've never seen us so bad when attacking the Kop for years.

25 Oct 2026 17:28:35
go and ask any man United supporter if they would have Andoni Iraola, whose B team strolled to a win today.

Just "Thank God" he's the LFC manager/coach/trainer.

YNWA Andoni.

Agreed, think how good we'll be if we get 2 serious midfielders in. AI must be telling the powers that be what he needs.

{Ed666's Note - I honestly think we could make do with Camara in January and we’ll be much more improved and keep our powder dry for the other midfield reinforcements in the summer.

25 Oct 2026 19:18:55
Him and Mac would be decent, I like Mac anyway.

Is he still looking likely to join?

25 Oct 2026 15:57:44
Good result that against a inform team. But Man of the match for Gakpo? What's the assistant commentator smoking? MOTM should of been Aurajo as he was solid. I do think we need a new keeper though as Alison was awful.

25 Oct 2026 16:05:56
Gakpo was excellent to be fair, just lacked a goal involvement to cap it off. Never stopped running off the ball, was an exemplary presser throughout, and the ghost of Luis Diaz descended upon him a few times when he carried the ball up the field and rode challenges to get us into the opposition half from deep.

Used his body very well on multiple occasions, always looked dangerous on the ball, and that was the fastest I've seen him sprint for some time now.

{Ed666's Note - excellent? He wasn’t even good..

25 Oct 2026 16:18:58
I would not say Gakpo had a good game at all, not that he was the worst player. Yes, he was very active, but that's about it. He repeatedly held on to the ball for too long, allowing opposition players to descend on him before releasing it. He consistently failed to pass to teammates who were in better positions as well.

And near the end of the match he made a stupid foul outside the box which was reckless. Even the commentator was slagging off his final ball and lack of passing ability, before turning round and giving him MOTM. It's really quite bizaare. Aurajo deserved the MOTM as he was everywhere.

{Ed666's Note - To be fair to Gakpo I don’t think it was a foul at the end I think he was unlucky. But for me and I concur with you mate Gakpo was super wasteful and didn’t have a good game .

25 Oct 2026 16:22:59
Thought the ref was the best player on the pitch. for Brighton.

25 Oct 2026 16:43:37
Alisson's distribution was very poor, we were brilliant fir the first 20 or so minutes. Even my Mrs said "they'll take their foot off the gas as usual" and I think she was right. I'd have taken Gakpo off for Rio, he was very wasteful.
But a good win nevertheless and I hope Flo's injury is nothing big.

25 Oct 2026 17:38:39
Gakpo totally wasteful, poor passing can't beat a man doesn't bring in other players. Poor.

25 Oct 2026 17:42:34
Gakpo was our best attacker.

26 Oct 2026 00:50:29
Are we back there again? I really don't understand why, after a really good win we feel we have to single out players for unwarranted criticism.

Can we not just enjoy a win?

25 Oct 2026 14:41:37
38 miniutes gone and kirkez has been terrible, he could not mark a coupon.

25 Oct 2026 15:04:40
We're 2-0 up against a strong Brighton.

25 Oct 2026 16:27:05
Kerkez gets no help from Gakpo whatsoever so when a lot of the time he it's defending 2vs1.

{Ed666's Note - I’m so glad we have Bacola on the left because another season of Cody and Kerkez on the left hand side is gonna be the death of me

25 Oct 2026 16:28:42
We're 2-0 up against a team who hadn't conceded a prem goal in almost 9 hours and have scored goals for fun. Yet this is what you'd like to post about.

25 Oct 2026 13:04:21
Liverpool: Alisson, Van Dijk, Jacquet, Kerkez, Wirtz, Isak, Mac Allister, Gakpo, Barcola, Araujo, Gravenberch.

Subs: Mamardashvili, Gomez, Endo, Chiesa, Tsimikas, Nyoni, McConnell, Koumas, Ngumoha.

25 Oct 2026 13:17:06
Our bench is still on the weaker side.

25 Oct 2026 13:24:55
In fairness our squad today is missing Szobo, Bradley, Munoz, Leoni and Ekitike JLC.

25 Oct 2026 13:30:27
FMJ - YOU ARE RIGHT, BUT JLC WAS TALKING ABOUT TODAY'S BENCH, WHICH IS ON THE WEAKER SIDE. SORRY ABOUT THE CAPITALS.

25 Oct 2026 13:37:18
Well aware of that KBL, but it's a bit of a moot point with the context of our current issues. Any squad would look the same when missing 5 players from their first team squad.

25 Oct 2026 16:24:49
Love it KBL😂.

21 Oct 2026 21:26:50
Another 90 mins for Ndukwe tonight.

21 Oct 2026 19:23:21
Funny as this match is, I really don't want to play Como they are good.

21 Oct 2026 03:01:34
Just when i write that defence has been good we put out a defensive masterclass.
Well no complaints it was yet another new midfield pairing. Comeback win and a famous night at anfield.
