Insane technique. It was coming down fast and he had to do the karate front kick volley. Easily the best goal of the season for me.

That’s because we lack any semblance of match control. Even in games against mid tier sides.
When first half is this good, second half usually ends up boring. Hopefully it won't be the case.
Even Souness admits it was a red. 
The fingerer of Merseyside, Thiago, would like to have a word about that.Pointing of a young god, though
Mane got away with one there (missed it during real time)
What a first half.
Salah is actually best in the world (right now) his control spin turn control through his legs for the first chance that was saved ruled off side was amazing, his control for his run, control, and shot for the goal was also amazing. One of those players they need to replay him on slow motion so people realise what he’s actually done, but then people see it in slow motion and forget the actual speed he did it.
Premier League at its best.

Good point.
And our own captain as well.The fingerer of Merseyside, Thiago, would like to have a word about that.
Kovacic's goal, in terms of footwork, is fecking ridiculous. The step backwards and how he generated the power from that tough position
Salah and Mane paper over so many cracks for Liverpool. The AFCON will expose them.
Nah.
I'm enjoying this!!
It's not a red card. It's a yellow. Not every elbow is a red card. He doesn't swing the elbow, he leads with it and I think actually it's the lower arm that catches Azpilicueta.
Pundits are clowns, if it were a red, Souness would be moaning about the 'modern game'.

At this rate, we could actually make a first XI of pointers
Question, which goals do you think Lukaku was cheering back home?
Awful defending from Van Dijk on the second goal.
Did you have to ruin it for everyone on CAF?
Lautaro's
Inter Milan’s?
Mane hadn’t scored or assisted in 9 games before today. Salah will be a miss. Jota needs to stay fit.
I think they only miss two or three games now though.
Are Inter playing?
Salah
It's because they're so evenly matched at the technical level and putting so much pressure on each other, that the game essentially descended into a lawless back and forth. The fact that the pitch isn't huge as well is a factor. There isn't a huge amount of space to work with so they had to scrap for every yard. It was honestly glorious to watch.
Well, we have a spine of the team, defender, midfielder and attacker, now just need to fill the rest.
Lauti's*
Mane papers over feck all. He's been a weak link for quite a while now
How did Thiago do for you in the last few months? I read he finally came good but couldn't watch it live unfortunately.
Really entertaining game so far. May the goals continue to flow in the second half, and Liverpool end up scoring one less than Chelsea.
That as just too silly. I’m thinking about hiding behind the efn couch to watch the second half. It’s just too tense.
It’s a blatant red. Even sourness agrees.
If he does that after 60 minutes he’s off without a doubt it’s the fact it was after 6 seconds that Taylor bottled the decision.
You that bothered about the fight for 2nd?
Pardon me! Will never do such a horrible mistake again.
I think not, otherwise there wouldn't be any need for question
Am I alone in thinking that Kovacic goal was a little flukey? Don't get me wrong, it was a great goal but with people talking about it as an all-time great goal, I thought he looked very unbalanced and not quite in control when he kicked.
He's a brilliant midfielder, though, very underrated. What a game this is.

Definitely best goal of the year
I still cant call it. We can batter them but it only takes one ball to be right for Mane and/or Salah
If i was TT id be telling the attackers to just shoot at Kelleher, keep him busy

This game is a perfect example of where our rivals fullbacks and back 3s make plenty of defensive mistakes too. Guaranteed to be forgotten by posters on here next time they post about AWB
you are indeed misinterpreting what I said. there are always three possibilities: 1) a dive 2) a foul 3) player does down under heavy but fair challenge. I do not think Odegaard dived but nor do I think it was a penalty. as for bernado, if the shirt was pulled, it doesn't matter if he did the perfect impersonation of tom daley. it's a foul and therefore a penalty. I happen to think the arsenal defender left his leg there on purpose which is also a penalty offence
We’ve got a 100% win rate with him and Fabinho playing together. It’s about 17 games I think. I think we’ve won every game Thiago has started this season as well.
He has played well this season though.
