I MEAN, for the love of everything that is holy, how the frigging hell are we meant to live our normal lives?
Work tomorrow, yer? Yer, yer, sound. These civilians, just wandering around living their lovely, ordinary, no peaks no trough lives and The Reds are fucking bouncing round all over the gaff. The highest of highs, the lowest of lows. Oh the highest of scruffy, spawny, Redshite highs.
It’s hard not to think our name is written all over it when shit like that keeps happening every other week.
Alisson: 7
His passing was a bit shite and that and, I mean, I don’t know, he made one save where he just palmed it straight to their lad in front of the goal, but so fucking what?
Trent: 8
Sounder than any fucker you have ever met. Reckon he is a disco Beat Hotel fella, giving it loads to yer man Greg Wilson.
What’s The Joelly Doing Tom: 7
Thought he was really good you know, twatting into the back of Kane and giving the fucker away every now and again aside.
Virgil: 9
It really is ridiculous at this point. There has never been a better defender to play for The Reds. The block on Kane in the first half, the defending space on his own in the second.
What’s that, lad? you’re the best centre forward in the world, yer? Got an MBE for services to keeping your fucking mouth open and having a fucking big fucking dry old fucking tongue, yer? Fuck off, dickhead.
His influence, his ability to inspire, to make sure it happens, to get us over the line regardless is immense. Second to none.
Robbo: 8
What a ball for the first. Then is just about The Reds’ best player for the rest of the game.
Henderson: 6
That midfield of doom mate, when the team plays well it purrs. As soon as we don’t it is shite. Henderson has a lot to do there but it was genuinely bananas that Fabinho didn’t come on at least 10 minutes earlier. The one where he tried to knock it in the box and he cobbles it out for a goalkick was a low point.
Gini: 6
The six for the midfielders feels a tad harsh because they all grafted like fuck, and it should probably be reserved for the manager rather than them but fuck it. Aside from the first 20/30 minutes I’m not sure what he did. A byproduct of the three of them rather than anything else. Caught in between their line an awful lot.
Milner: 6
See above and that. I don’t really even know. I mean, I spent the last five minutes, which felt like four months, flitting in between a crouched on my haunches pose and a standing on the seat in front. I have no sense of anything and you want intelligent, articulate analysis of something or some jokes? You fucking do it, bellend.
Mo: 7
Couldn’t buy a goal for weeks and then gets given one which deffo weren’t his by George. Well in, George. Best thing you have done aside from play that Arcade Fire/Bruce Springsteen double header that time. Probably score every game now.
Sadio: 7
Had a week off. Saving himself for Southampton away.
Firmino: 8
The Reds’ best player first half. Took 10 minutes to get to the rhythm of the game and then brought the game to his rhythm. Belter goal. Drifted out of it second half.
SUBS
Fabinho: 8
Crying out for him for 20 minutes before he come on to the extent that you start questioning yourself. Have I forgotten that he is shite or something? Come on and was the best midfielder on the pitch, broke it up and got The Reds on the front foot again.
Div: 7
Love left wing Div, you know.

We weren’t great, but we have 6 left to go in the Premier League and I’d take us doing this every game from here to the end of the season if we get the same results as an outcome.
As for that midfield 3. Please for the love of whoever, can Klopp no longer pick those 3 as a 3 in games. Today I was so animated at Henderson that I was hoping he’d would get taken off before he finally gave away the freekick for their goal and instead of stopping Kane from taking a quick one, he did his usual theatrics. Looks good for the cameras and all that, but serves absolutely no purpose to the cause.
Anyways, April tomorrow and we start it at the top of the League and in the Qtrs of the CL. I remember far too many a season, where it was over by January.
Henderson needs to stop Kane taking a moving-ball fre kick there. Its his gaff, or it should be. All Reds fans know that midfield for Klöpp is a 90minute biathlon. Run,focus,run,focus,run,focus…..
Came here for a review of Kanes gob. Not disappointed.
Fantastic three points but that midfield is doing my head in. Hardly any goals, often bypassed by long balls as there is zilch creativity and, despite all the running around, not that much protection for the back four. Fabinho did more in his cameo than the three of them put together. Klopp is brilliant, but when you’re on the way to the match and you hear that the three amigos are on again you just scratch your head and hope that this will be their day. As they say, hope springs eternal.
I have a theory on midfield under Klopp. Midfielders are fullbacks, fullbacks are midfielders. Who are the two most creative, dangerous players on the pitch? Trent and Robbo. Who does the dreary, boring, mopping up? the midfield three. I hear two things over and over from my fellow reds: more creativity from midfield; and Trent to CM. This is missing the point. Trent is playing RB precisely because he is our most creative player. You want goals from outside the front three? Look at the fullbacks. Especially Trent. He will not stop until he scores a hattrick of direct corners. This also explains why Fabinho makes such a difference. He is to Klopp’s midfield what Roberto Carlos was to the position of fullback. The real Scouse Cafu.
It is noticeable that those 3 draws that we had against Leicester, WHU and Man Utd all came without TAA in the side. All 3 games were crying out for him.
However I am certain that even Klopp wants more from that midfield trio and certainly not what was served up yesterday. When the chips came down to it, he was bold enough to remove both Henderson and Milner off and bring on a more combative Fabinho on and the directness and energy of Origi.
Btw, Origi can’t be doing his chances of staying any harm at present. He won that corner that eventually lead to the winner. We need to remember he is still only 23 and has his best years ahead of him. If he can progress then he will save us money in the transfer market.
Anyways, that midfield trio did not play well at all yesterday and it’s not been the first time this has occurred this season. equally there was not enough creative spark from them again yesterday, hard work or not.
Two sublime pieces of 2nd half defending by Virgil & Robbo might just win us the title. Conceding a 2nd goal and losing would’ve pissed all over our chips big time. So so important not to lose yesterday. Don’t care how we do it, but just win the next two and it’s on. My word how it’s on.
You could be right. I still haven’t allowed myself to believe this, I just keep wanting us to push everyone hard and see where we end up at the very end of it all. 3 more points and we are virtually guaranteed 2nd place (as it would take some super human efforts by the teams behind to also turn over the goals tally). That has to be the focus against Southampton, those 3 precious points.
Ox would start if fit.Buy Zaha in summer.Finish on 97 win title.
I just love this type of games to the bone! And I bloody love this crazy rollercoaster we’re on!
My wife has seen every bit of me on Sunday, from the very best to the very worst. One minute I was going on like a lunatic screaming to bring on Fabinho, than went in complete sillence when they scorred, went on being frustrated for ten minutes, started believing again and finally back to being a lunatic when that bal went in of Lloris and Alderweireld.
Supporting City is probably far more easy. Supporting Liverpool is far more fun!!!
Up the ‘keep on giving me nearly heartattacks’ Reds!!!
