[Albion] Premier League 16-18/9/23

They were saying on R5L that he only arrived back from Argentina on Thursday, after a 12 hour flight. His body is probably still on Argentinian time (ie, ko was 8.30am!).
Possibly a bit of a gamble starting him.

Very fair point and knowing him if kept on he’ll score a worldie out of nowhere, but that first half was as bad as it gets at this level of football. Shouldn’t have been started in view of your info.

What have they said about his performance?

Gives Klopp his standard 12:30 kick off loss excuse.

The thing is I still really I like Alexis, and bear him absolutely no ill will. Thought he was tremendous for us, especially in that final season. I’ll forever be grateful to our World Cup winner for his attitude, grace and skill while with us.

But he looks like a competition winner out there today, he’s lost the ball more than anyone else on the pitch, has the second lowest pass completion, and has skinned about six times. Worst player on the pitch and would be astonished if he’s back out for the second half, Liverpool have been dire.

Good call

Good judgement by Klopp. Might be a good pointer for RdZ when deciding what to do with Estupinan today.

Damn it...Liverpool equalise. Wolves, you should have put this game to bed with the opportunities you squandered!

Hopefully it's nothing serious. At his age it is always a worry when you hear news like that.

1-2 Liverpool

TV Director: There's some muffled chanting, apologise to the viewers for any bad language they can hear, even though they probably can't hear it.

Also TV director: Here's a clip of a player clearly yelling the f-word. Let's slow it down and make sure viewers can see it!

I never really know why the TV folk apologise. It's not them doing the swearing!

Would that be winning Klopp?

Football’s also the winner here, the Wolves time wasting over the whole piece has been a disgrace.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

By my reckoning, you're wrong. They'd need to beat us by 5. How can 8-4 or 9-5 change that?

You are correct. It won’t change as we’d still be ahead on goals scored.

We’ve scored 7 more than Man Utd so no four goal victory for them (no matter how high the match score) would be enough for them to go ahead of us in the table.

Sheff United got what they deserve with the time wasting.
