The defense isn't as bad as people make out, and when they want to defend, they can do so; however that's not to say a player like VVD coming in wouldn't significantly solidify things more.

The game has been shit bar three decent attacks that have all resulted in a goal. There's more in it still, but credit where it's due, Watford played a good half.

Stonewall and well taken by Firmino.

We've been shit and are level. Step it up just a little and there is no reason we can't go on and take all 3 points.

And there we go. I'll be pissed if we end up not taking the points now.

Big Salah with assist and goal points now then, he's staying in my side for now.

Watford shit the bed. Firmino's teeth are somehow even whiter this season.

Salah's going out be straight out of my fantasy side if he keeps this up.

as soon as he scored I knew this would be your next post :D

Good point mate.

Like I said yesterday "As always" ;)

btw: Class act from the Watford Fans to commemorate the late Graham Taylor with applause in the 72nd minute. Always gives me goosebumps when this happens.

Good to see some things don't change.

Lots of wanking to the nub coming up. From the Southampton fans in particular I suspect.​

Or rather, the linesman did. It's offside.

What a fucking horrible way to draw a football match.

I just noticed that too. Swings and roundabouts, get them sometimes, concede them others but it wasn't a goal. Oh well.

Actually, no. We haven't had an offside goal given in two years (Benteke vs Bournemouth). United had 7 given just last season.

It's not a conspiracy but it doesn't necessarily even out, either.

Annoying as fuck to be on the back foot already this season. Even taking into account the goal was offside, it should have been cleared.

I ask again, when the fuck is Klopp going to fucking realise that zonal marking doesn't work, and especially with defenders like we have? Is it stubborness? It's by far my biggest criticism of him. If we changed to man marking and trained for it properly, we would concede far less on set pieces, which are our biggest threat for a good reason. Cnuts.

I don't think the problem is zonal marking, I think the problem is with your defenders as it's not like the look great in open play.

Harsh to drop points to a last min goal that's offisde, but I think on the balance of play a draw was a fair result.

I thought Watford's late goal was offside at first but then I saw the replay from the other angle and it looked like the foot of whoever played it in was level with Britos' body. Not 100 per cent sure though. Still think the blame should lie with Wijnaldum for not clearing it properly rather than arguing about offside.

The equaliser was not offside.
What did you make of the pen smat mate, should've been a yellow for Salah don't you think?

No, it was absolutely stonewall. The match was very well officiated tbh. Neither side can have any complaints and 3-3 was a fair result, though obviously frustrating for Liverpool having led into stoppage time.

Having squandered two or three very good chances at 3-2 I'm not sure I agree with you that 3-3 was a fair result, especially considering the equalizer was offside (it really, really was). Best thing about the offside rule is that, in most cases, it's not subjective. His front foot is ahead of the ball when it's played, c'est tout.

That said, I'm not especially worried. As shit as we are we won't concede three goals like that every game but our front three is the best we've had since god knows when.

The best thing about the offside rule is that it can be incorrectly applied to Liverpool's disadvantage, in my opinion.

That was very enjoyable and encouraging.

We were very strong in midfield a d posed a threat in attack.

Janmaat getting injured was so predictable!

Good job the new right back is decent so far.

From the Liverpool point of view Mane and Salah were excellent but no doubt they will demand better in defence.

Draw was fair I think.
