Is Firmino hurt? He's not even listed on the bench.

Minor groin strain. Likely back next week.

Well Sakho is going to have to replace Lovren if he wants back in the team because he'll never replace Matip.

Mignolet is not good.

 

[les Habs]

How many Liverpool players wide open on that goal?

 

[Live in the Now]

Lovren!

 

[StatesideSensFan]

Haha amateur hour defending by Chelsea

 

[Deficient Mode]

What was Chelsea doing there?

Good luck with that. Lavern is amazing. If he can stay healthy I think a Matip - Lavern pairing can be great, maybe even the best in the league (optimisims).

When you play David Luiz you accept the idea that defending is optional.

The goal wasn't only his fault, but the defense was way too overloaded to the right side.

Who's Lavern?
He was Liverpool fans scapegoat not long time ago.

That being said, Liverpool are playing really really good.

Big optimisms

If you followed me on my post history you'll see I always defended Lavern (it's just a fun nickname I have for Lovren).

Not to bring this up again, but given that Rodgers turned every defender into a sick joke and how Lovren has played since Klopp joined up, there's only one person to blame for Lovren being bad enough to be a scapegoat.

I love Kante so much. I wish he were still with Leicester.

Skrtl right?

I think it was a combination of things, and I said it at the time. One there was no cover at all for the defence under Rodgers' system before they switched to 3 at the back, and because of it they were left exposed a lot. Lovren is a proactive defender so without much support got caught running around like a headless chicken a bit. I think part of that though was just the transfer fee and nerves. Honestly even in his bad games you could see his good qualities -- Klopp has organized the team much better on the counter-press and drilling the team to cover back more. Plus, he had to play beside Skrtel *shudder*

Rodgers definitely deserves part of the blame for how our CBs looked, but I wouldn't say it was all on him. Still, since Klopp has been in Lovren has been our best defender IMO.

Excellent goal from Henderson there.

 

[Ar-too]

Henderson!!!!!!
