Konate, Tsimikas, virgil, kelleher. All need a massive boot in the hole. That was absolutely shocking.

Wow football be crazy.

That was fun!!🤩

Not winning the league defending like that though.

Some flair in that team now. 4 clinkers and not one from a forward. But yes, few weaknesses defensively no doubt

First one going down as a Leno OG?

Jeez some match...got away with one to be far

Were you hopeful they would win the league?

2nd in the table, not sure why they wouldn't have ambitions to win it.

I'm agreeing, seems some

Liverpool supporters will be more than hopeful. Helped with Manchester City looking vulnerable this season.

Not really. I think City will put a typical City run together after Christmas and win it with a couple of games left.

But for Liverpool to hang in there and be in with a shout, they can't afford defensive performances like that. You won't scrape your way out of it every day.

The defensive side has been pretty good up to today (one of the better records in the division). Based on that i would put it down to an off day.  Maybe not a coincidence that we concede 3 when Allison is out.  I only saw the highlights but thought that Kelleher was badly at fault for at least one, and didn't cover himself in glory for one of the others (bad positioning).

On the plus side, great to see the midfielders get on the score sheet with brilliant strikes.  Goal scoring won't be a problem.

I think with Kelleher few of the goals are absolute howlers....same time he doesn't save many other than regulation ones. Fair few times you'd be sayin Alisson saves that but hey ho maybe a run of games will help

Loved the third goal today in particular. Mo laying it off to Endo, and Endo burying it. Endo's an average enough player, but a leader who always gives 100%, and was calm in the big moment. So many would blaze that over.

Our array of defensive errors was frustrating, I think we take for granted how often Ali bails us out (Kelleher is a decent keeper, but he's not Alisson - even Ederson is not Alisson when you see how poor he was for Son's goal today, although the Brazilian manager disagrees!)

I'm hoping for SheffU in midweek that we put Gomez at right back and play both Trent and Endo in midfield. That will make us stronger defensively and hopefully less likely to give away the stupid goals, while still leaving us with bundles of attacking talent.

He wasn't great to be fair but neither were any of the defenders before the ball even got near Kelleher.
