Live Match Discussion 2015/16

Lovren gone off now, they're not doing well on the injury front are they?

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Joe Allen you fluke bastard!

 

[slink]

Been impressed with Liverpool tonight.

 

[Parkins left foot]

It seems a regular occurance now. But teams only do it when the assistant is on the other side. Referees need to sharpen up and stop this.

Just as you say Frank - corner on the other side where the assistant is ball is on the white line!

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Too easy for Liverpool in that first half. Stoke have rarely troubled them.

With Toure and Lucas as centre backs, he has to add Crouch up front, and sacrifice a defender.

The Grauniad live commentary made me laugh again....................

Tonight’s half-time entertainment comes courtesy of our resident comic JR in Illinois. “Although Stoke have transformed their team from recent years, perhaps they failed to consider that in doing so they have stocked their team with players who can’t do it on a rainy Tuesday night at Stoke.” He’s here all week, try the sweetcorn.

Seems to be a train of thought that they are finding it hard to adjust to the more demanding game under Klopp, On average Liverpool now run 6km and do 74 sprints per game more then they did under Rodgers.

Everton v City - decent game (better than last nights)

Both sides going for a win with Everton the better so far, but cannot stay onside with 2 disallowed goals so far

 

[Parkins left foot]

Everton take the lead just before half time as a fierce Barkley shot from a corner is beaten out, but only to Mori

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Delph eventually gets the yellow card he has been asking for. Everton in control here.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Out of nothing, Manchester City equalise. Superb play by Aguero.

 

[slink]

Everton deserve that second goal, they should have had 4 or 5 here.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

Not sure about the City defending. Giving Lukaku a free header.

City defenders have allowed him to drift in-between them far too often - not surprised that they have been made to pay

 

[Nando]

75m for those two jokers at the back. Outstanding.

It is awful defending but it's quality attacking play that kids should be watching. Always looking to get in between defenders with clever movement.

 

[Parkins left foot]

Everton down to 10 as Coleman goes off injured with all 3 subs already on & 5 mins to go.

Any chance they have for the final they probably need to hold onto this lead

 

[Parkins left foot]

City make their last sub, but with Everton a man down Pellegrini brings on Fenando rather than another attacker - somewhat strange sub in the circumstances

How he's still in this job mystifies me. City must have been waiting for Pep because Pellegrini has been out of his depth for well over a year.
