The real Champions, Champions of Europe are playing today, so no chance
Brighton & Hove Albion vs Liverpool *** Official Match Thread ***
My take on it was that we were being bossed in midfield after Klopp had brought Henderson on at half time........so he sacrificed a striker to add a number there. With Maupay already off, it had to be Connolly over Welbeck IMO. Didn’t work out because of his almost immediate substitution but Lallana is the most likely to create a decent chance (along with Groß). [emoji2369][emoji2369]

Possibly. It's just that then having to replace Lallana he went with Ali J when he had Moloumby on the bench. So we beefed it up for about 8 minutes!
Bit unfortunate that....makes taking the point all the more impressive
Agreed. Of course we really should have been leading at half time by a goal or two. Given we weren't, then pulling it back at the death with a patched up team was very, very sweet.
Pascal may need to start every week as a nominated penalty taker - I wouldn't give Maupay another one.

Agree, we are now basically back in the pre-VAR position where you win some you lose some.
Should go back to the man in the middle making the decisions along with his assistants - would be no worse than now, and the game would flow better...
Have working goal line technology, not gnats dick decisions on offsides, then most will be happy!

Yes totally agree.
Great performance and fully deserved result without Tariq and Adam L effectively all game. Possibly fortunate with the pen but we missed very good chances and 1-1 is a fair result. Tactically spot on from GP and team. Dunky had an excellent game as did JV, BW, SM, YB, AC etc etc. Just a great TEAM performance with AJ in the mix too. Well played Albion

I thought we might get something today... not sure why?!? just that old feeling - and, we did... well done boys! a progressive and historic result in every sense.
Here's hoping we continue this trajectory against the Saints.

Still buzzing after today, great effort. Feeling like we can give anyone a proper game now. Just real pity about the injuries

Well I think we fully deserved the 1pt today. The BT commentary team were so bias think they had red shirts on. Kept harping on about the two goals scored that were both offside, think they need to understand offside means they do not count.
Just knew Maupay was going to miss and it seemed somewhat odd he went off within minutes. Hopefully Lallana is not injured too bad either, he seemed to run off ok.
Connolly and Welbeck played well and I thought Veltman looked solid. Bissouma or Solly Mom. AJ also had a good cameo

The penalty was as soft as you'll ever see.
The question you have to ask: if it was up the other end would it be given and would the plastic scousers be complaining then?
They had a soft pen at the Amex when Gross touched Salah's shoulder in the box and he fell down like he'd been shot.

Not negative, just realistic. Very happy to be proven wrong today.

The Foul on Welbeck is more of a pen than the one Klopp is defending Salah over.
