Jags and Holgate played well but Jags is too short and Holgate does not have the physique. Neither jumped for the centre - and Virgil was more determined.

Pickford panicked and screwed up. I hope all those who slaughtered Robles are busily doing the same now to Pickford in this thread.

Why?

And where has this nonsense about Robles getting slaughtered come from??

He isn't good enough. It's as simple as that. He made many mistakes over three years and while I would be happy for him to stay as back up he will never ever be close to being good enough. A decent keeper, that's it.

Pickford has all the attributes to be world class. He made a rash decision today and it cost us. He may not have saved it anyway, as VVD had risen highest and made good contact, and if he'd have stayed on his line there'd have been just as many people saying he should have come off it.

Good corner, good header, some poor marking and a bit of panic from Pickford. S*** happens. It has nothing to do with slating Joel.

Pickford is a quality keeper who’s made a mistake tonight, Robles is a fat dosser who isn’t and never will be good enough for Everton. “Slaughtering” Pickford won’t change that.
 

Someone made a good point on twitter about how Liverpool were getting a lot of set pieces. Towards the end of the game. And we were struggling to cope with there height advantage. So maybe Pickford has made his mind up to come for them

[Poor language removed] happens, even the best keepers in the world make s couple of mistakes every season


I thought it was very apparent when the teams were shaking hands before the game.

Most of their players seemed to dwarf most of ours.

This is every game. Part of why I'd love N'Zonzi. Why Keane has to play and get better. Pickford has strengths and weaknesses. We saw that today. He's still terrific.

In terms of average height it’s probably close given that Bolasie, DCL, Schneiderlin and McCarthy are taller than Firmino, Mane, Lallana and Milner.

But where it mattered they towered above us. Van Dijk is taller than Kenny on Jagielka’s shoulders.
