OTF

It's pinball whenever we put a ball into their box.

Was, but it was an excellent block rather than a poor shot.

Fraser was not expecting that to get through to him there

Needed one more naysayer and that would have gone in off the post.

So close for Longstaff

That touch in the centre where he jumped was bizarre.

And behind a Shay Given lookalike....

We're getting a bit sloppy, Pope bailing us out with a top save.

This sort of open game should suit Anderson if he's given a solid run out.

Looking at the replay he could have gone either side instead of trying to dink it over him.

What a chance there for Isak, bit of a heavy touch before the shot unfortunately.

A bit unlucky for Longstaff to get a yellow there, now a worry with the already tired legs.

Great from Joelinton, first winning the ball then beating the defender to make the pass.

We're right on the front foot from the start. I agree though, but if it continues like this they won't be doing anywhere near as much defensive work.

Pardew would be turgid at the potential left back substitutes on the bench.

This passive joking will be the end of me

Can we please vote on whether that nickname should be retired?

This will really test the legs, hope Bruno is back. Would consider starting Anderson with the two Brazilians.

Seems amicable, I'd imagine he wants to actually play in the final years of his career. He was always one of the best for us when he played.

Howe is bloody brilliant in general but it's encapsulated so well in his press conferences. He doesn't buy into any agenda or speculation, least of all his own, and listens to and answers legitimate questions with honesty, accuracy and eloquence.

Comprehension. Since the board was held up with 5 minutes on it I called it out as being too long for the half that was played. Hairy Hands' numbers confirmed I was right, which is always nice. Say that three or even being generous four minutes of added time are played then Pope's 94 seconds is moved forward one or two minutes and then there can be no contention at all.

It clearly meant a lot to Klopp the way he celebrated, for a moment I wasn't sure whether he'd gone rabid and was worried that they'd have to get out the curtain.

Then why would the Liverpool fans be rattling on about something that they gained advantage from and had nothing to do with? The point was that regardless of what it is noone draws attention to something that they gained unfair advantage from, much less if they had no control or influence over it. At any length I'm honestly not bothered by it, and futher I am more than happy for you to be contrary about it for the sake of whatever you get from doing so. And please don't worry that Dick Keys of all people has statistically eradicated your opinion from reality by showing that the referee had unnecessarily added the 5 minutes of time in the first place by the barometer of time with the ball in play which was well above the average (in top 20%).

I for one would be demanding that it was chalked off by the VAR. It's not Liverpool's responsibility to keep time, that's up to the officials. The 5 minutes of added time was already too many for the half that was played, adding three more on tops was insult to injury. I'm not bothered by it though as I'm still super happy with the way we played with who we had available as well as a fantastic debut for Isak.
