[Albion] Liverpool vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Marxo]

That was very unfortunate.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

Can’t say it wasn’t coming. Need to step it up, they’ve been all over us.

 

[The Fits]

After that start it's a shame. All the pressure is coming from very tentative playing out from the back. Makes us look a bit silly as the defensive unit don't currently look up to all of the over playing.
Still, still in this.

That was very unfortunate.

It was shit defending, let’s be real.

 

[Bodian]

Was it actually a corner in the first place?

 

[El Turi]

Are all the offside players directly behind Veltman when he’s trying to clear the ball not interfering with play?

 

[Littlemo]

Pervis. Try and keep an eye out for that Salah chap please. FWIW I would have Veltman doing that job

To be fair to Pervis, most teams double up on Salah for a reason, he’s still one of the best forwards in the league. He’s not getting much help.

 

[Zeberdi]

That was a goal waiting to happen - poor defending by Veltman - poor clearance then played Diaz onside

 

[METALMICKY]

Need to get the ball to Adingra as he's got the beating of his man all day long down that side

 

[KZNSeagull]

Close from Danny. We are knocking it around nicely today

 

[macbeth]

great start spoiled by an awful individual error. again.

 

[Bodian]

You'd think so. If Veltman had simply left the ball, it would probably have been given as offside.

 

[birthofanorange]

It's been all them, really. Just wish we could have managed a second to give us a bit of a cushion. Still, long way to go. UTA

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

Liverpool have benefited from a lino not giving easy offsides

 

[The Fits]

Welbeck looks bang up for it though.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Can’t say it wasn’t coming. Need to step it up, they’ve been all over us.

I don't think I've ever seen us set up this defensively under RDZ.

Their right looks so vulnerable, Mitoma would have a field day. Adingra doing well though.

 

[Washie]

That was a goal waiting to happen - poor defending by Veltman - poor clearance then played Diaz onside

Diaz was onside when Salah headed it.

 

[Algernon]

Salah's got a bet on.

 

[dazzer6666]

Harsh. He instinctively took a swing at it as any defender probably would have done

 

[WhingForPresident]

Welbeck looks bang up for it though.

When he plays like this, his all round play is world class IMO. Obviously his finishing and composure leave a bit to be desired at the best of times.
