Match Thread Liverpool v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[PhilM]

That’s the worst feeling coming out of that shed in a long, long time and rightfully they were taking the Michael out of us: we were truly and utterly spineless.

The second half was beyond terrible, and the only silver lining is that I expect this will expedite the departure of a fair number of our starting XI.

Total cowardice and surrender in that second half. All klopp said was don't give them any time on the ball. Midfield was non existent. Soggy nothing, schnderlin nothing and wow delph absolutely nothing

39000 at the next home game as one would expect. 3 points and that will do me. Unless you are stupid, everyone knows that the Champions of Europe and current PL champions by a mile have a reserve team capable of beating us. Why the surprise then? Not nice for those went I know, but we move on and given time, 10 or more rubbish players will be moved on and we might get back to challenging for 6th or 7th which is the realistic aim of a club of our status.

 

[Blue Roo]

After being outclassed by RS youth team what must surely hit most of these players square between the eyes is they just don't possess the skill, confidence and courage to play with the ball at their feet, let alone play together.
They simply can't keep hold of the ball - unless it involves passing to Pickford who will give it away for them - let alone do anything with it.

Ruthlessness is required.
Moshiri and co will not be able to hide.
So maybe a silver lining.

they won't go, they all have contracts that are paying them well, we should just give them up the same way we've given up the last 4 managers, take a hit and put them out to sit the rest of their careers watching.

No I don't think negativity stops our starting 11 put in fight and effort, I don't think negativity stops our multimillion pound signings be unable to pass the ball 5 yards to each other

Its a lazy excuse for poor coaching, poor players and even worse recruitment

Bullcrap, I’ve seen worse teams than the one we have now get backed every game, even when things were bad, for the longest time now as soon as one bad pass happens the crowd turns and that negativity stays throughout the game

Is it impossible to sack a footballer?

Sound mate, Its the crowd being negative why the teams crap

 

[everton1953]

Roll on Saturday, 3 points and onwards and upwards to safety. 17 points required, should get 12 in January and February . Come on you Blues!

Klopp is going to have a real problem keeping everyone of his players happy. Some of those kids looked ready for PL now ... Jones and Williams for a start

I don't think you need to go too far back to think of them taking the mick out of us after similarly humiliating results at Anfield.

 

[BernieWright13]

I've been thrilled since Ancelotti first rocked up and have to say today I expected big things in the half time team talk. We were largely outplayed by kids for a lot of the first half. Shocked that the performance got worse. A whole lot worse. Some of those masquerading as Everton players seemed to have surrendered before the rs even scored.

We need a clear-out for sure, but it's troubling that CA thought snidey morgan and the icelandic pointer the best CM combination today. Surely he won't let either of them near a shirt again?

I think they could do with some 'warm weather' training before the Brighton game.

I suggest Iran.
