LFC XI: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson, Wijnaldum, Milner, Keita, Salah, Firmino, Mane
I would accept Barca blowing the brakes off Tottenham as a small token of apology for our game not being televised.
Just going to say it, Keita is very unimpressive. For all the shit Henderson gets, he does not back pass to the other team. His work rate off the ball is terrible too.
Looked like shit well before the header, unless he didn't tell the doc that something twinged in warm up.
Our midfield isn't playing very well. Not creating anything, giving the ball away, going to need to be much better in the 2nd half and on Sunday.
This ref just going to let Napoli do whatever they fucking want to our players today. Also they've broken up 2 or 3 counter attacks and he hasn't carded them.
The midfield is non-existent. There's no where for the defense to play the ball so they are kicking it up to no one. Then when our forwards get the ball they are isolated.
Agree 100% the midfield looked bad. That game needed more from them and I don’t think the guys we started had enough, obviously. Should have rotated more. Salah looks like he has no confidence, or he’s pressing too hard to try and do everything.
This match is the first I’ve felt like we missed Ox. Didn’t have pace in the midfield. Could have gone with Shaqiri instead of Sturridge and done it sooner.
