Heisenberg Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 This has the classic look of a game where we start bright, don't take chances then leak a weak one. Mystic Heisenberg
BotleySaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 **** sake. Mane 1-0. As I was saying.. we are just too slack at the back when it matters.
Edmonton Saint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 That's why you need to take your chances . Played well and then a moment of quality from them
OttawaSaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 The usual suspects will now flood to the board...
Plastic Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 So predictable it’s not even funny. Yeah. We just don’t have that.
Bad Wolf Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Waiting for someone to claim they're "lucky" and "don't deserve it"...Always makes me laugh.
Useful Idiot Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Totally losing enthusiasm for this league to be honest. Can't remember the last time I actually enjoyed watching a match.
Sunglasses Ron Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Sickener right on half time. Stuff like this always a danger against the big teams, if they’re not playing well then they can still score out of nowhere. Tough job for Ralph now.

OttawaSaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Mystic Heisenberg I’ll bite. That was far from weak. Your trolling attempt though was very weak.
Heisenberg Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Don't need any Burnley style collapse here Played well enough, although that will sting at half time
Colinjb Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 That is highly irritating. We have been playing well until that point. Most important thing here is the reaction. Show we learned from last week.
St Marco Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Might be losing but I think we have been the better team thus far. Just a pity we didn't take one of our chances.
Saints foreva Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 We do not deserve to be losing but how has Mane found that much space in our box?
sydney_saint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Looked like a foul on Bertrand by Salah in buildup. Didnt that happen last time we played them here. Would love to read the fine print of the rule book of the exceptions to the rules if they are wearing a Liverpool shirt
BotleySaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Want to see that penalty shout again. Sorry, it happened at the wrong end.
John B Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Having outstanding players like Mane does help to win matches We just don't have any really top class players
saints-til-i-die Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Pleased so far. Much better than I expected. Well done Saints!
Bewildered Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 So predictable, they just seemed to turn into headless chickens the moment it went into injury time, like the pressure of staying level at HT was too much...
mrfahaji Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 (edited) Waiting for someone to claim they're "lucky" and "don't deserve it"...Always makes me laugh. I know what you mean, but in this match you'd expect Liverpool to be attacking and looking threatening. Perhaps Saints would be doing a 'backs to the wall' job to stay in it. But that hasn't been the case. We have looked the better side and they just have a few world class players who only need half a chance. It's sickening. Edited 17 August, 2019 by mrfahaji
obelisk Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Unlucky to be 1 down but if you give Mane the freedom to wander where he wants in the penalty area then that's what'll happen.
niceandfriendly Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 We've been excellent. Unfortunately as we know Mane is a class act. I'd have actually liked to have seen us attack them a bit more in that first half, even though we did pretty well in that regard. Adams has been dangerous, missed a great opportunity. If we really go for it we can get something from this.
niceandfriendly Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 We do not deserve to be losing but how has Mane found that much space in our box? Bednarke was slow to get to him, and Hojberg pulled out of the challenge
stknowle Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 We've done ****ing well so far against one of the best teams in the world. No doubt their midweek game is a factor but even so we've done well.
NewYorkSaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 This where the £ advantage of the top teams really shows. Adams looks really strong. But Mane a class above. His market value now >£50m. We don't have that to spend. That comparison apart we won the first half. Exciting to watch, and I love our midfield. Bertrand, Redmond, Adams also exciting in combo. We'll be a team to reckon w this season. Just not top 4.
doddisalegend Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Sat here at SMS feeling a little robbed A very even half of football we certainly weren't out played in the first half. Sent from my moto g(6) using Tapatalk

GDog07 Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Disheartened about the goal before half time. But the performance so far gives me hope of a decent second half and that we’re not going to be as bad as people think we are going to be this season.
OttawaSaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Others have said it but to win this type of games we need a bit of luck and bury those chances, Liverpool have the luxury of rope-a-doping us and then letting the quality of Mané, Salah and Firmino do the business. Huge gulf in top end talent. Redmond takes about 4 or 5 attempts to find his range from there, Mané just needs one, pure class.
saints-til-i-die Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 We shouldn’t be beating teams like this! Proud of our performance so far!
Micky Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 The result is pretty much irrelevant to me to be honest, it's all about the performance. That will tell us more about this side. Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk
Pamplemousse Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 It's only 1-0. Confident that if we created the kind of chances did we create, we will score one. The question, sadly, is whether we'll concede any more...
St Marco Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Keep doing what we doing and we might get something
hasper57saint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Thug Milner gets away with it yet again. I'd like to see someone really clatter him and the Ref wave play on. We can get back into this. COYS

Sent from my SM-T590 using Tapatalk This but we need to mske sure and play like this vs the BHAs, WHUs and Newcastles of this league.
LGTL Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 (edited) There was a foul on Bertrand in the build up to the goal but he decided to stay on his feet. Edited 17 August, 2019 by LGTL
BotleySaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Romeo will be off one way or another.And Milner will stay on despite doing worse.
OttawaSaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 State of that from valery What exactly happened there. Was he supposed to kick it to Liverpool? He was on the ground getting hacked, why the drop ball?
OttawaSaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Important we have a strong second half here after the capitulation at Burnley.
Colinjb Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Changes needed here. Djenepo for Romeu. Move Ward-Prowse into the middle.
BotleySaint Posted 17 August, 2019 Posted 17 August, 2019 Not playing badly but we lack anyone who can turn the game. Be clinical. Too ordinary.
