I could see that. Gomez is a fantastic player; he came out of absolutely nowhere this season, who'd have thought?

Solanke nearly again from Robertson...great early pass from Hendo.

Robertson is a breath of fresh air for this team. Solid defensively, disciplined and outstanding going forward.

Coutinho is too selfish. Not surprising.

Also I can't help but feel if it were Sturridge or Firmino instead of Solanke in a lot of these positions we'd have a goal or two by now.

I mean if you aren't going to play Solanke in these games...

I would have liked to see Sturridge partner Solanke is a diamond today, but Sturridge probably can't go twice a week anymore

Solanke needs to play. Also, it's funny the way Robertson keeps getting these opportunities, but if I was the defending team that's who I'd want to have them. Can't really adjust their defending to adapt to that as Coutinho would get so much more of the ball. It's a nice weapon to have.

I'm not saying he doesn't; he's just been a bit off, fumbling balls and a step or two behind in the timing. This type of game will be good for him and I'm hoping he'll score sooner than later. He's doing most of the right stuff. It was just an observation that we're playing really well (on both sides of the ball).

Also Ward hasn't really been tested in terms of his shot stopping, but he looks real good in every other facet.

Can is three or four times the player and isn't going to get himself sent off. But like I said about Grujic before, I don't rate him. Never will.

1st shot on target. Off a dead ball. Against the run of play.

It is the same game every week.

We just can't seem to score against defensive teams, and they can't not score.

Also why does Klavan keep going so far forward? I saw it happen a bunch of times in the first half too. His guy scored again.

This has literally nothing to do with coaching. The ball was going wide and our bloke knocked it in.

I disagree. They aren't preparing the team correctly if the same goals keep happening. It's insanity.

Can't clear the danger off a corner kick. Bad bounces happen. Being consistently unable to deal with corners is coaching.

that's the first goal conceded by Liverpool on a set piece in at least 48 hours
