Sky have no interest in us though. File under 'to be expected' and dust off when we play City.

It's been the same on DAZN. Matt Holland is the co-commentator and all he's talked about is the Brighton mistakes and how great Liverpool are. He seemed to ignore all the great chances we created and didn't even say much about our goal.

Anyway, I actually enjoyed the last 30 minutes of that half. We look really good going forward.

It physically pains me watching Dale Stephens slowly chasing shadows all game, I’m sick of watching sides taking the piss passing around him. His positioning is appalling and then he can’t catch up as he looks like he’s towing a caravan chasing back. He looks totally lost and out of his depth. Will always be a club hero for being part of that promotion side but he needs to be put out of his misery now.

Propper on the other hand has been excellent since his mistake.

I think what has become painfully obvious is his lack of pace. He isn't that old but he has gotten even slower i'm sure.
He can still pick a pass and make a tackle but Premier League midfielders just glide past him now. The only way he'd be effective is playing right in front (and i mean right in front) of the CBS but you can't play like that.

Not gonna lie and was gonna say it at 0-2 but think we’ve played bloody well. Look the most dangerous going forward we have for ages. Just 2 silly mistakes and their class showed...

Watching replay Ryan should have saved Henderson’s goal , if only he was 6ft .
Come on lads at least take Stephens off please for Biss and let’s get another goal . Would take a draw after that embarrassing start

People saying MacAllister has been anonymous??

His first time pass to Lamptey was ridiculous and a massive part of the goal.

I know - but that’s okay it’s a forum.
To me he pulls players out of position by sitting in pockets of space.

His drawback is his pace, intellectually he’s a genius in footballing terms

Gross is like an upgraded Darren Currie, both fantastic footballers, both would be playing a lot higher up the league if they had any pace.

Those mistakes aside its been a really even game and we've given a good account of ourselves, but that's the problem in the Premier League even more so when you are playing the champions, mistakes get punished.

Because that's where the interest is. We can be too precious sometimes. Nobody cares about Brighton or the like in World football- they care about the superstars.

Piss off Souness.

Biased ****.

He’s right tho. A lot of games start with a bit of sparring. If Liverpool are pressing sparring won’t help you if you pussyfoot about

Souness probably right though in that you have to be more pragmatic first ten/twenty minutes and play it a bit longer. However, we have stuck to it and have created some decent chances.

:lol: I thought this was a joke, just checked the team sheet and he is playing! I tuned in at 0-2 and genuinely didn’t realise he was playing.

Graeme Souness is such a dinosaur, literally so miserable and no credit for us at all. Sooner he’s sacked off from the pundits team the better

I seriously dont know what he brings here except saying Liverpool is a great side (wow didnt know that) and that we should just know our place and give up.
