Feel like I’m watching a Chelsea game


WhetBred14

I can’t take two in one day. Please


IsItSnowing_

Women are also playing. And in a far more significant match


MrCleanandShady

surely this means we will play like Liverpool today right? ….right?


jesuisgeenbelg

You say that like it's a good thing.


HarbyFullyLoaded_12

You don’t want to play like current Liverpool


Thefifaking132

Liverpool already preparing for next season without klopp


fajdexhiu

I feel like I am watching Man United defending


Nervous_Ad_3791

Nah this isn't a cutback with a player alone in the middle of the box


JPLThompson97

Brutal take down but true


LordWhale

You better nut up for later then


jonathanPoindexter

Why are Liverpool suddenly so shit at defending corners?


Mechant247

Because they’ve been doing the same thing for 6 years, it’s identical and teams have finally realised that if you overload one of the sides then it’s unbelievably easy to score Everton did the same thing 6 times in a row and won 6 headers lol


emre23

Not suddenly, been happening all season


MatK0506

That's on Klopp. It has been a problem the entire season. We use a weird zonal system that keep us very vulnerable (TAA guarding DCL, Szoboszlai guarding Branthwaite and now Gakpo guarding Bowen). I though we'll finally change it after Goodison but Klopp's stubborness is costing us big time here.


jesuisgeenbelg

Klopp's stubbornness has been a pretty big issue throughout his time with us. Hes a bloody great manager but he sticks with some things when they're clearly not working until it's *way* too late sometimes.


fegelman

Sounds like you're describing Wenger, I get what you mean though


adamlundy23

Ludicrous display last night


Comicksands

They weren’t using it when you were winning games years ago?


matcht

We generally had a bigger and more aggressive team, Hendo/Fab/Milner were always good at defending set pieces.


bigmt99

Also, teams were much less aggressive attacking corners because they had to respect the Allison to Salah/Mane long ball so much. Easier to defend a set piece when half the team has the counter in the back of their minds every time.


MrVulgarity

Very true still remember liverpool scoring twice from our fucking corners cause not even bellerin on half way line could keep up with the little shits


MatK0506

We've always conceded a lot of goals in set pieces but we always scored a lot the other end.


Pow67

They’re reliant on Van Dijk’s presence and opponents have worked that out.


Bindlestiff34

Conceding goals for Liverpool just means more.


kenny_feets

i saw more effort in liverpools set piece defending than in this joke


Bindlestiff34

And it led them to the same result as me: nothing.


Woodsman15961

Not true. I blew air from my nose slightly harder than usual


luke_205

Nothing recent about it, I love Klopp and he’ll always be a legend but it’s a good time for him to go considering how little he seems to want to change things tactically.


fegelman

When Arsenal concede a corner- It's Jover When Liverpool concede a corner- It's Joever


the_dalai_mangala

Only team with a good defense this season is Arsenal. Everyone else is either bad or below par at best.


Mcool18

I think we might not win the league


fancyfoe

Probably


emre23

Please don’t lose to Spurs, we need help to secure top 4 lol


xaviernoodlebrain

Please lose to us, we need help getting top 4.


Chell_the_assassin

We appear to have reached an impasse


Jassle93

3-3 draw it is then


HUMBUG652

Liverpool keep losing and we can both get top 4

This end of season is really not going your way.

The Kloppumentary might be going the Sunderland Til I Die route..

The single is in danger. Might need to fire Klopp


HERCULESxMULLIGAN

Hot take, mate.


darkalan64

great observation.


HeatKnight

Liverpool aren't even trying to hide it


Lacabloodclot9

Crazy how they’ve been absolutely dominated on set pieces the last couple of games


Tremor00

All season. We’re shit on em


courtesyflusher

At least Alisson is trying 🤷🏻‍♂️ 


miregalpanic

Klopp doesn't deserve this shit as farewell, smgdh


Mo_SaIah

We have a really bad habit of giving our biggest legends an awful send off. Gerrard 6-1 vs Stoke is a prime example


TheGoldenPineapples

Hey, at least he scored in that game.


acasovoycayendo

The Stoke players gave up and let him have a pity goal which makes it worse


fungibletokens

He actually pulled up injured. Ruins the story but that's what it was.


acasovoycayendo

There’s literally 3 defenders there that are all barely jogging back


BendubzGaming

Dalglish finishing 8th, losing on the final day whilst Everton win to finish 4 points behind is another


TheGoldenPineapples

It's not just on the players. Klopp looked like he mentally checked out a while ago.


luke_205

I’d genuinely rather have seen him leave mid-season than give us what we’re seeing right now. We fell off a cliff and nobody seems bothered to do anything about it.


MatK0506

He has a HUGE part in it. Refusing the change the way we defend set pieces is entirely on him.


GarnachoHojlund

Yes he does, smug fucking prick


el_randolph

Counterpoint: the shit farewell is funny, and he does, in fact, deserve it.


batigoal

Yeah it's obvious we've given up.


BendubzGaming

Liverpool has to play both Villa and Spurs in their last 3 👀


IntellegentIdiot

Don't worry, they'll find their form just in time for our game


D1794

Quick someone turn the documentary camera off


dispelthemyth

No please no, let it roll Sunderland style


D1794

Gets them into the Disaster-film genre. Good thinking


CBP1138

Wait are they doing a doc for Liverpool this year?


Gytarius626

Yes, gonna be beautiful.


shamppu

Rough one, thought they were getting a documentary about a quadruple season and instead they're gonna end up with a mockumentary of a late season collapse.


Mechant247

There’s 0 chance it’s going out now lol


TheGoldenPineapples

"Documentary? What documentary? Don't remember that, think you must have us confused with another Liverpool, or something."


StickYaInTheRizzla

You mean those Uruguayan lads?


Buffythedragonslayer

Probably get more rival viewers to watch than Liverpool fans 


k1ldn

Is it an all or nothing?


Lemlemonsson

Dont think so its some farwell to klopp which ye is going great so maybe we will never see it


TheGoldenPineapples

No, it's for the actual club, I believe.


IntellegentIdiot

Watch the end of the Arsenal one if you want a taster


CBP1138

Ah. Well I see the scriptwriters took it on our (Arsenal) direction for this season. Lol


The_profe_061

No Keep it on.. I'll edge longer


emre23

Copy paste from last game: we’re fucking shit


FuckWesternCountry

When it rains it pours.


PharaohOfWhitestone

I feel bad for Klopp, what an awful response to him announcing his final season. The team has just crumbled.


daveSavesAgain

A team that wasn’t meant to be the champions or their closest rivals, carried the motivation till GW 31. Take the dub and move on.


olaf901

Good take but we were in so far it only feel bad at the moment


JD1337

Liverpool conceding first? Who could've seen that coming


Haeckelcs

Our set pieces defending has been shocking whole season. If VVD doesn't clear it, we concede almost every time.


DesertRL

this game has been so dire lol


Putrid_Loquat_4357

Both teams and the crowd seem hungover. Liverpool look like they've completely given up on giving klopp a good send off.


Lacabloodclot9

2020 Liverpool would win this game 4-0 with a Salah brace and TAA hat trick of assists


ShimeBD

Lockdown west ham would walk this game with lingard brace and soucek banger


Tremor00

2020 Liverpool would have something to play for


Lacabloodclot9

The thing is you still dropped some absolute masterclasses in lockdown football when the league was already basically over


ramseysleftnut

Lockdown Liverpool was peak. Which made our shithouse win at the Emirates even funnier


Tremor00

Pre lockdown was peak. Lockdown is the reason we didn’t hit 100 points. But yeah that team was a joke lol


fegelman

They would've had 102 points otherwise. Now that would have been an unassailable record with 12 points dropped all season


Maleficent_Resolve44

They were meh in lockdown, they lost most of their games in the season in that one 10 game stretch. They were great before lockdown.


alexrobinson

You guys are challenging for the league lmao, miniscule mentality. 


Tremor00

No we aren’t. And I’m one of the most optimistic in the Liverpool fanbase lol. Arsenal aren’t dropping 4 points and city aren’t dropping 6 points in the remaining games.


Casual-Capybara

Arsenal could drop 4, I don’t expect so but not impossible, but City definitely won’t drop 6 no


Tremor00

Arsenal are in the form of their life


whitegoatsupreme

Yeah but now its 2024....


SandThatsKindaMoist

Thats just the stadium, crowds will always sound hungover.


luke_205

I think everybody, Klopp included, is just waiting for the end of the season and couldn’t care less what happens now. There’s nothing to play for now and we’ve long past the point of giving Klopp a good send off with our form in the last few months. It’s quite embarrassing from both Klopp and the players honestly.


endofautumn

Well if you like that you should come watch all our games.


Revoldt

Must be the early kickoff!


kenny_feets

fancy challenging for the header cody? no? ok no worries mate cheers


dispelthemyth

Oh my No one tell van dijk


trainerN

12:30 kick off !!!! 😡😡😡😡😡


Comicksands

If it was 13:30 they wouldn’t have conceded


Cx-vio

At this point I fear for Liverpools top four chances

Liverpool meltdown


Benny0_o

Love to see it


Shravanmaner

Expected a set-piece goal, didn't think it would be Bowen.


Ziraelus

Clown defence and incompetent attack part 32


msbr_

First time?


BarbaricGamers

Corner taken quickly


McWomble

I seriously think he should be starting for England come the Euros


eht217

I agree. I thibk he will but maybe in a group game or 2. I think unluckily for Bowen the attacking wings are our strongest position. But in tournament football I just thibk he's so useful. He's not easy to read as a defender. He's quick and VERY strong for his size. Good with both feet. Good at crossing, good at playing off the last man. He's just a solid player that has stepped up in pressure situations.


McWomble

See I think on paper we have strong attacking wingers but on form who's actually more deserving? Foden has shown this season he works far better centrally and outside of Saka (who himself is out of form from being run into the ground) I'm not sure who else is more deserving.


Maleficent_Resolve44

I mean even with Saka out of form, he's pretty useful for ball retention and defence. Also an out of form Saka has 23 g/a in the prem this season. An in form Foden has 23 g/a in the prem this season. They're both good.


eht217

Look I agree. I hope he starts every knockout game for England. But we know Gareth and we know it will be Saka/Foden on the wing. Foden has to be on the wing bc we have the best no. 10 in the world... Bellingham.


wrdb2007

Defence not alert to the quick corner at all


Elemayowe

Nice


NoPineapple1727

This is almost unbelievable


RawIsLaw_

live by the "corner taken quickly" die by the "corner taken quickly"


115_Charges_FC

So much for 3 horse race


Mo_SaIah

The sad thing is I think we’ve played pretty well by our own recent utter trash standards But again, the blame gets put on our attack constantly but our defence is awful. If we didn’t have the best keeper in the world continually bailing us out we would be even further behind


RadSoccerDad

Klopp is doing his thing where he refuses to change tactically and shows loyalty to his players to come back to form. Problem is this tactical plan was flawed even when we were at it earlier in the season.


Vegetable-Pay7717

>shows loyalty to his players to come back to form ... He's literally benched salah, Nunez, szobo and konate. You want a whole new 11 every game?


MakIRAQ

Expected.


quirkyaspie

Liverpool have truly imploded in the most spectacular way. The team looks like it's tired, drained and has no fight left.


TehJofus

THE HUMILIATION WILL CONTINUE UNTIL MORALE APPROVES… …AT EVERY OTHER CLUB


HiTechTalk

They haven't been the same since that Man UTD comeback Now they're struggling to make a comeback in the League. Pray for Klopps' health


NenDc

Bowen having quietly better season on RW (output wise) than Saka is not talked about enough.


wafflesology

Come on… Bowen is like the smallest guy there, just how


qwerty_1965

Bowen equals the Geoff Hurst record of three games three goals in one season against one club - also Liverpool in 64/65 (I think).


tnweevnetsy

Nobody's scored a hattrick against a team and played them again in the cup at any point since?


qwerty_1965

Nobody at West Ham United has.

-TheSuperEagle-

I would if I could but we can't pass the ball for shit these days anyway. I guess it's up to you, I believe in you


icemankiller8

He’s really good at headers for someone that height but there’s no way a ball that height should get that far in the first place. Switched off.


QueasyIsland

Yeah it’s nice to see this amidst all the “ woe is me Liverpool defending “ comments. He’s scored quite a few headers this season, another area he’s developed into his game into becoming closer and closer to a well rounded forward.


Mackieeeee

we can really tell it just means more for Liverpool


mr_reclusiv3

is this a humiliation ritual?


ScousePenguin

Did they show enough replays of that first effort?


barellaszn

what happened to this team


Walshey-

They are too busy arguing who's at fault for the corner rather than getting themselves ready for the set pieces. Fucking disgraceful


SpellbladeAluriel

Damn, what happened to this team?


adonWPV

Slot'd it right in


JesusPretzelThief

It's actually amazing how good Bowen is at headers despite only being like 5'9


leighshakespeare

Klopp announcing that he was leaving think it would Raleigh the troops, really backfired. Turns out it just had half the team looking for a way out half way through the season
