Sssssshhhhh, we don't come out well on that either
Although I put that down to Murray starting instead of Andone.
Yeah, but the stats don't count our shots that ended up looking like crosses.

[Football] Liverpool's 3 shots on target was their 2nd lowest of the season, in the league

Or seemingly the ones blocked by defenders.. who knew?

No. Simply a statement of fact.
Always worth reminding everyone it's zero points for a defeat. I'm sure someone benefited from the insight.

Good point, Alisson tipped a shot from Locadia around the post in the second half.

I thought we had a shot on target with the Gross shot that Paula blocked or does that not count under the modern day football banner ? , the fact is we have been beaten by probably one of the best teams in Europe by 1 goal AGAIN at this rate of improvement next season should see us bagging at least 2 points from Liverpool, they won’t see their 2 games against us as clear cut wins as they probably did last and this season, we’re getting there slowly, but we’re getting there .

That Gross effort blocked by Fabinho looked on target to me. But still not a lot to yell about.
A great job done.
Lazy by Ian Wright to criticise CH’s approach.

I really enjoyed the game. It took great discipline to restrict a normally rampant Liverpool side to so few chances and the Albion should be commended not lambasted for it. Whilst we may not have had 'shots on target', we did create a few openings against the most parsimonious defence in the league and the possibility of a point was there until the final whistle. You can concede possession to Liverpool but you cannot gift them time and space without getting battered.
With United on a roll at the moment a similar approach on Saturday may give us the opportunity to gain an unexpected point at Old Trafford. At the very least we should approach game with a level confidence that we may not have previously shown.

Ian Wright always wants teams to go gung-ho at the top six. It's not his problem if they get trounced. Point one of this gives a more measured and realistic view from the Guardian's Nick Ames https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ue-10-talking-points-from-the-weekends-action

The point I didn't quite make on this thread but was alluding to instead of 'the media' making a big thing about our shots on target, why aren't they commenting on Liverpool's failing in the same statistic.
After all according to Transfermarket they did come as the Albion with:-
Salah - £135m
Firmino - £72m
Mané - £67.5m
Shaqiri - £22.5m
£297,000,000's worth of attacking talent.
