Oh man, the ETH out brigade would be so disappointed today because we didn't get a thrashing.

The team did well overall into playing Liverpool away, not getting trashed and even getting one point. Might as well had sticked with Mourinho or Ole if you wanted to build up into this type of football.

Very good result given our results under him away to the top sides and the negativity around the team. I think the absences forced him to be more sensible and play our best defender (it's mad that we need everyone else to be out for our best defender to play) and an actual midfield but he deserves credit for the fact that the team hung in there and could have nicked it, I'm not sure how much of the actual play we can build on but maybe getting some players back and the improved morale of a dogged result like this means we can start to improve.

They had LOADS of chances, are you just going to make shit up? They couldn't finish today and that was the only reason we got a point. They carved us open countless times to only feck up at the end, the amount of corners too.
This post is a load of garbage. Luckily, the collectors are on their way tomorrow so I'll be sure to have them pick it up.

Threw a wrench in the plans of the scum, so that's enough to earn some leeway with me. :lol:

Finally, some actual management. We shouldn’t be losing games by cricket scores because we have injuries. Get through this period by managing the team and the performances then do whatever you want when the players start to come back.

We've scored in one of our last five games :lol:

Still, the team was well set up today and put in an overall good performance. Decent substitutions as well.

Of course McTominay would say that, he's playing every game fecking despite being shite.

This game buys ETH more time and some faith for me even though it's at an all time low.

Players seemed to fight for every blade of grass. Especially Varane.

Weird, considering he lost them or something.

Maybe they are desperate to keep him in job since the Potter rumours appeared.

I'm just relieved. I don't have the energy to find any criticism after watching that shitting it for 90+ minutes. Thanks for not letting us live through another abomination.

If the players wanted to get rid of him, today was the day. I want to believe we can go forward and build on this result.
Our players are professionals. Downing the tools is just nonsense claimed by many people here. We're bad because we're a bad team, that's all. No conspiracy stuff involved.

Good selection today but forced into it by Bruno’s suspension. Hopefully he learns from it and doesn’t revert to type in the next match.

On the contrary. I’m far from ETH biggest fan but I thought he got the gameplay spot on today and as an reward has come away with Anfield with more than any other team has managed this season, despite all our problems. He gets some credit in the bank from me today, for whatever that’s worth.

Imagine boosting about us not getting thrashed, not even winning, no, just not thrashed.
We got a decent point with lots of injuries against a team who has won all of their home games. With better attacking play in situations we would have won. I'm sure you would have been the first to stick the knife in should we have lost.
