Consigliere Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Pogba's goal looked offside. Relieved that we managed to score as it was starting to look like yet another match where the keeper has a blinder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polishgenius Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 It's amazing how much we're already becoming reliant on Mkhitaryan when he still hasn't really played great for us. He just provides an incisiveness that no-one else does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Antony Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 5 in 5 Origi, such a talent. Had a nice pass on Lallanas 2nd as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Consigliere Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Refreshing change to have us scoring late. Crucial win especially given the other results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iskaral Pust Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 Jammy United (seems a while since I said that), and Chelsea eke out another narrow win. Arsenal lost some ground as all of the other top six won. West Brom are now the only surprise team in the top 9. Well done Origi to score yet again but his overall play isn't quite there and Firmino is really suffering out of position and missing Coutinho. Our mesmerizing attack from before the last international break isn't easy to recreate. Mignolet did well on his return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Horse Named Stranger Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 So the reports of Ibrahimovic being too old and slow to be relied on scoring goals have exaggerated? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iskaral Pust Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 We got a clean sheet despite missing Matip plus Middlesbrough actually trying a few attacks. Notable that Klavan rather than Lucas was chosen to replace Matip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iskaral Pust Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 There was one game, I think a LC game, where Klavan looked a bit suspect, plus he was party to the 2-0 loss to Burnley, but overall he has been quite solid: composed, good passer, tackles well, although lacks a bit of pace and occasionally a bit slow in moving the ball along. I think Klopp likes Lucas personally, which got him more chances at CB than performances ever merited. It's fine for Lucas to play CB in the early LC games to rest a starter and get some practice in the role, but not to step in as the back-up in a PL game for Matip when Klavan is available.

A Horse Named Stranger Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 I think Klopp values Lucas as a ball moving defender more than Klavan. But that's just my guess. The problem is, that Lucas supposed offensive upside has a too much of a tradeoff, his defensive play. Or at least it looked like it this season. Now it's basically a question of what you think is more important. More fluid ball movement (Lucas) against a deep lying opponent, or defensive stability (Klavan).

AncalagonTheBlack Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Just watched the pre-match press.Seems Klopp used Rocky IV in a team meeting once to motivate the players,no one except 2 guys knew the reference . Also,Rocky is one of his fav. movies.He also enjoyed Creed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Horse Named Stranger Posted December 16, 2016 Share Posted December 16, 2016 Nah, that movie is plain horrible. Well most of them are. I mean Rocky V is clearly the worst. I mean it'S bad even by Stallone standards. But then it's really a toss up between III and IV. But III has Mr. T. So the one with Lundgren is clearly worst. The not horrible movies in the series, Rocky and Rocky Balboa. I haven't seen Creed, but that one is rumoredly not bad. So there's no way that Rocky IV makes is to the top 3.
