Crap, it was coming.

[BlackST]

It was coming.
Changes should have been made before the goal.

[RedTrident]

What happens when you lose the midfield.

[MGJohn]

Sadly, yet more confirmation evidence the status of the Premiership is being realigned in the scheme of things.

Who knew? Actually, been on the cards for quite a while.

[Flip Martian]

Good experience for Ibe - he struggled for once this half.

To be fair, we're still not exactly anywhere near the best in the Prem...

[BlackST]

No link up between defensive midfield and attack.
When Henderson plays he sits infront of Lucas or Allen and creates play and brings Ibe and Moreno into the game.
It just hasn't happened tonight. Can and Allen have sat next to each other and none of them have taken control of doing what Hendo does in this 343 set up.

Chelsea, City and Arsenal hardly represented the Prem well. With the spuds all but out our reputation as a league is not in good health that's for sure

[DSLiverpool]

Bren should have strengthened the middle and a big article on little Joey doesn't change the fact he is out of his depth tonight - he was walked past for the assist to Ba check it out, walked past.

Blood power cut. What's happening?

Fair point, yep

[BlackST]

Ba just hit the bar.

[BlackST]

Extra time.
I wonder if Mignolet can do spaghetti legs.

[pinchmeimdreamin]

Exactly what we didn't need.

We will probably lose this and then be knackered on Sunday.

[Flip Martian]

How the heck are we going to win this unless we get to pens...

Totes agree. We've been a man short all night and I can't believe a sub wasn't made earlier. Looked a different side when Balo got dragged off.

[DSLiverpool]

This is hard to watch, we've lost our confidence and it'll be a miracle if we get to pens

[BlackST]

Toure skrtel and Lovren have been run ragged all game.
Just seem unorganised? Obviously the 1st time they've played as a 3 but that shouldn't be a huge excuse in professional football.

Noisy bunch these Turks aren't they?

They don't seem to like it when we have the temerity to have the ball.
