Should have won, now enough of this away day shit time to get back to anfield and get some momentum going.
Premier League Matchweek 3 August 27 - 28
- Thread starter the hea
- Start date
Liverpool were better, but a point each suits us nicely.
He's running with the purse.
If we win later we'll already have a 5 and 4 point lead on Liverpool and Spurs respectively. I'll be happy with that.
Good result for us.
Spurs were absolutely terrible. Honestly can't remember the last time I saw them play so poorly.
Liverpool have thrown 2 points away there.

Neither are getting top four.
High point of the match - Linesman runs away from shaking hands with Flopp!
Frustrating as we should have won. Thought Matip did fairly well as did Mane until later on in the game. Henderson had a decent game despite my concerns. Wijnaldum doesn't look very good at all.
I'm not sure what to make of Spurs. They started slow last season but Champions League football could its toll.
I don't think either of us will get top four based on what I've seen so far.

Alli is a very good talent. But he's started the season poorly. Spurs really can't afford both him and Kane starting the season badly.
I wasn't playing mate.
Could be, but I just find that silly.
Never once I thought about Rooney's dad...or Ronaldo's, or Messi's. Have about Neville's, but just because of his first name!
And Giggs was same as Depay and Alli, wasn't he? But he did something about it, and switched from Wilson to Giggs. Which is also factually way better surname.
really too early to make any predictions.
But Spurs have started poorly...and Liverpool need to play a game for 90 minutes.

He's never scored in August in the PL, apparently. So it's probably that. But still, Spurs need to get their starting attackers firing.
Is that three away games in a row now? Odd start to the season.
Defend like that, you shouldn't win anything. You got exactly what you deserved.
Going forward is great, midfield and defence are as bad as i've seen from you lot in two decades, even Phil Babb and Rigobert Song had more to offer.
Some work on their stadiu I believe
Spurs and Kane started poorly last season as well.
Anfield wasn't ready for the start of the season due to the main stand improvements. It'll be ready for after the international break.
Its pretty hilarious seeing Rawk moaning about the ref after that game, ironic.
Ah okay. A win and draw away to the two London clubs would have been great results had you not lost to Burnley.
Young's assists in his final 3 seasons at Villa: 8, 10, 9.
Valencia's assists in his 3 seasons at Wigan, 1, 4, 5.
He still bought them, and neither possess a great goal threat either.
I'd predict that managers/coaches/scouts are looking for more than just goals and assists numbers.
Liverpool should have won. Got tired towards the end.
I wonder why Klopp waited so long to bring on Sturridge. Mané and Firmino looked done after 70'.
They need to sack off that Dutch mug and put Kane in his proper position with Alli playing off him if you ask me.
I didn't think we defended that badly. Their goal came from one lapse in concentration, not tonnes of pressure and chances created due our leaky defence.
People always say this is the worst Liverpool team they've seen regardless of who is playing. It's not terrible, but we lack a world class player to lift us a few levels.
Would you have settled for 4 points from your first 3 before the season started? It looks kind of acceptable to me, all things considered.
Thing is they can't play dross like Arsenal and Spurs every week.
Huh? That's how they started the game didn't they? Kane didn't look good enough even then. Most of his poor play has little to do with Janssen. He's just really looking off key. Prime example was A) his losing the battle against the Liverpool centre halves and B) general play - see that pass on the counter he got horribly wrong.
How did Mane not see red?
Yes, and they found gold in Valencia taking his numbers from Wigan into consideration. I don't rate Mane as highly as the two in their primes. I think they offer more than Mane in terms of general play (not goals/assists).
No, not really. They don't smile much but at least they don't look angry all the time.
Going forward is as good as you have looked since the Suarez/Sturridge season. But building a defensive unit with Henderson in the midfield (never mind captain) is just asking for trouble, hes poor, and those behind him are just as bad. They all have a mistake in them every game, and none of them do well under pressure. It will cost you, a lot. Just like today.
If he'd bought some decent defenders, I think you would easily be in the top 4 this year.
Yeah you didn't defend badly today. But then Spurs looked absolutely lost in attack. They were getting basic passes wrong and key players seem to lack sharpness.
Liverpool with their passing and running game are not able to keep it up after 60 or so minutes.
Plus it does not help that they have issues in defence.

Bolasie and Williams get their first starts.
For an outsider it looked like mid table mediocrity.
Flopp flapping about Spurs then admitting it doesn't feel that brilliant, then glasses off, and then rambling. Those psycho drugs really aren't working for him.
Rubbish refereeing. First one I understood why he let go. But not giving a card for the second unbooked offense was brainless.
I've watched every Spurs game and they are not up to speed yet. They could run for 90 mins last season. Kane is playing as well as he did for England.
Dembele is a big miss.

No surprise Sourness thinks both the penalty was in the area and Lallana was onside
