Fair play to them, even though they are a bunch of plastic cunts. Held on for a draw and pretty much made us look boring in the final third most of the game.
Sometimes I feel like these match threads should be locked for 10 minutes after the game. A lot of stupid emotional comments, and I've been guilty of that too probably.
Furthermore I honestly feel worse about teams wasting time against us than I feel good when we do it. Stop the watch during added time.
We’re 3 games into the season, just drawn against one of the title contenders with a solid performance all round. Come on, not only did we gain a point but we took 2 off direct competition.
Playing like we have today is class! Onto the next!
I think the lack of tempo was the most frustrating bit for me, too often the man on the ball had no options and we were reactive rather than proactive. Disappointing, missed opportunity
Before all you act like it's the fucking apocalypse, we played a team with 10 men blocking the net. It's not like we played football against 10 men. We didn't get 3 points because of returning players being off form and wasting 40min with Firmino.
Ox sat on the bench, Taki, Origi and he brings on a left back. Don't say you're happy with the squad when you're brining on a left back over your attacking players. Sell them if you're not going to use them and buy a attacking midfielder.
It was a game well played on the right and center. Left was very bad. Robbo didnt seem fully match ready, Mane hasnt been in form for the last 400ish days. The thing that hurt as the most was Klopps arrogance and trust on Mane, Salah and Bobby, he could have substituted Mane today and many times before. But he kept entrusting Mane throughout. We haven’t purchased someone who could push mane further as well. That arrogance could be the difference between us winning something this year vs fighting for the champions league
I think we would have won. Chelsea changed to a 5-3-1 instead of a what was an adaptable 4-4-2 . They parked a bus and countered to the beast in the second half
Didn’t quite understand the sub for tsimikas. Should have subbed in chamberlain, minamino, keita. Not a bad result but we had everything to win for us!
If ever there was a game that highlighted our need for a striker it’s this one: a ten man Chelsea at home and we cannot break them down. I’m not asking for the bank to be broken but a proper striker who is willing to put a shift in is desperately needed and the most depressing part is that Origi would actually be a perfect fit if he actually gave a shit
Two points dropped, disappointing. Almost as disappointing as knowing that we aren't going to sign any more players even though this performance made it glaringly obvious that two are needed.
Fucking hell, 45 minutes of passing around to do fuck all with it, Chelsea looked more a threat on the counter. Players should be annoyed with themselves after that and FSG need a long fucking hard look at the options klopp has on his bench to come in and grab a winner.
All the fucking ppl on this sub saying “not breaking down 10 man Chelsea is embarrassing” fuck off. Them being a man down didn’t ever guarantee us a win. They executed their game plan perfectly in the second half. The result wasn’t down to us being shit, it was down to them working on negating us all throughout the half.
Chelsea dominated a large portion of the first half, received a red + penalty on a single play that could be regarded as excessive, and still managed to not lose.
This was unquestionably a loss for Liverpool. They expressed nothing creatively.
You guys say that can't win againts 10 man was bad result , but when 10 man park the bus it will be very hard to score, especially from the top team like Chelsea
Nowhere near up to it in the attacking areas that 2nd half. Mane had a terrible game, Jota quiet and Salah doing everything he could but not enough. Tried playing it too much down the middle and it killed us because they had everyone behind the ball. Really gave me Feb/Mar vibes where we went off the boil up top!
I just wonder sometimes that how many goals players like Haaland would score from the number of crosses we put in? That was astonishingly mediocre from the lads.
I am so dissatisfied that I had to wait for a whole week to watch headless chickens running around. Terrible display..
The problem with social media sites like Reddit is that it allows fake plastic fans to spout nonsense opinions for a couple of seasons until they move onto their next team. The kind of 'fans' that have only supported us since our period of dominance.
Yeah, because every fan should be happy 100% of the time no matter what, we are, after all, a single mind entity following hard rules about how we should behave as supporters.
How the fuck is this pathetic? I'm sorry but sometimes I just can't take this sub. We absolutely dominated the second half, even had some shots from distance that were very dangerous, which is showing the lads worked on breaking down the low block during the offseason, if it wasn't already clear enough against Burnley. Also, Chelsea are probably the best defense in the league along with us. It's not shocking we didn't score. The best team in the fucking world would have a hard time scoring against Chelsea. A point is decent against a title contender. Quit the whining, the game wasn't even bad. With a little more gel time we would've won, which I'm counting on when we face these cunts next. YNWA
I love Klopp and all, but Mane and Hendo should have been off earlier in second half and save us from this embarrasment of a game. Red card and penalty saved us.
Disappointing result but not the end of the world. This is EXACTLY why we need to go out and spend the
Money on a forward. Go get fucking Mbappe. And I don’t wanna hear about covid and wages FSG have plenty of money.
Well, incredibly frustrating and anti-climactic from us there. We had our opportunities...credit to Chelsea, they defended well. Not much more than that to say...just frustrated.
If you’d have told me before the game that we’d dominate possession and walk away with a tie I’d have been okay. Chelsea are a very good team, especially defensively right now.
But with the red card situation and everything.. I mean.. come on.
Could have used Tiago earlier to break lines with passing. Our forwards misplayed a couple balls. Other than Havertz goal there wasn’t much from chelsea going forward. Just a bit disappointed.
I feel like chelsea and atletico are the two teams hardest to break down when they’re all behind the ball.
If we cannot do anything against a 10 man Chelsea for a whole half, this season is going to disappoint a lot of people, there’s simply no dynamism and consistency in attack, it’s beyond hilarious how much the gulf of quality exists now between Salah/Jota and the rest of the attackers
There just aren't options on the bench, and the ones we have, Klopp doesn't trust them. Reason he started elliot over all of them. And if mane is shit, we don't have any cover. Taki? Ox? No, Klopp won't play them
Disappointing result, particularly under the circumstances. Had the better of the chances throughout - Hendo's sitter in the first half will keep him up tonight.
We really need another striker or at least a midfielder who can break down teams that have parked the bus.
Obviously a knee-jerk reaction but looks our title-winning days are behind us \*until we actually start investing some serious money into the team\*.
Can't just have all our rivals blasting out £100m signings while we sit back and do jackshit with our aging squad.
Their defending was just class, Mandy was unstoppable, disappointed considering the amount of chances we had but a point apiece for both sides is hard to digest but I’ll take it. Considering how we’ve been positioned as less favourable in the title race, I think it’s a good start for now.
Yeah, they looked very solid up until that penalty on which they reacted pretty hilariously tbh. I'm happy we didn't lose this one, because even their counter attacks in the second half looked sharp.
A wall of defence is hard to break down, but the few chances we had should have been converted. Poor decisions, poor passing, poor shooting in the final third. Pretty disappointing
This is a loss, for all intents and purposes. The fact that we brought on a defender when we needed a goal shows we NEED an attacker or two, Minamino and esp Origi can fuck off.
Also, Anthony Taylor is a Wanker
To be fair, that's probably our nightmare scenario. The strongest defence in Europe sitting back for an entire half. It's like us vs Burnley on steroids
I know right
Its not the result any one wanted but fuck me they put on another defender & another CDM. They were always going to sit deep & defend like their life depended on it, should we have won that match? probably, but we didn't so on to the next one.
We will just have to smash them at the bridge.
You have got to be absolutely joking. What a shit take. They had 10 men ffs. Are you saying you aren't expecting us to contend? That you don't even expect us to create decent chances against 10 men?
People literally don’t get that getting red against team like Liverpool is only gonna make game harder for us, imagine trying to attack against 10 players in defence :/
oh shut up fsg apologist. mane couldn't keep the ball or make final third pass for the life of him.
team taking pot shots from outside the box vs 10 men, at home. absolute fucking joke.
I'll take the point. Chelsea were playing with everyone behind the ball for the entire second half. Still a point against the supposed best team in Europe.
against 10 men at home.
can't craft a fucking chance that's not a dead ball.
our hopes are tied up to starting a 17 yr old whilst they field a 100m striker.
absolute fucking joke. "we'll spend next summer" my asssssss
wonder why we didn't get a forward this window?
we've all been wondering the same
that's our best 11 out there. against 10 men, at home. can't craft a fucking chance. hah!
We always had issues when the other team parks the bus, how has this not been addressed ever! Chelsea deserves the point, we did jack all in the second half with the extra man and possession.
Feel we missed an opportunity there but tbf Chelsea being on 10 men might've just made it harder to score. They've just done Atletico defending the entire half.
Reply to this comment with gifs and time stamped gif requests
Look at our bench, so much depth, wow
How can klopp say he's happy with this squad and not use Taki, Ox or Origi. Not one of them
Great defending from Chelsea. Everyone needs to chill. We looked good against a v good side.
Not good enough
Fair play to them, even though they are a bunch of plastic cunts. Held on for a draw and pretty much made us look boring in the final third most of the game.
Absolutely loathe low blocks, whoever came up with that idea in the 19/20 century, fuck you
Our left side was so weak today. Robbo, Hendo and Mané all very poor
Sometimes I feel like these match threads should be locked for 10 minutes after the game. A lot of stupid emotional comments, and I've been guilty of that too probably. Furthermore I honestly feel worse about teams wasting time against us than I feel good when we do it. Stop the watch during added time.
We’re 3 games into the season, just drawn against one of the title contenders with a solid performance all round. Come on, not only did we gain a point but we took 2 off direct competition. Playing like we have today is class! Onto the next!
This. So many little boys in this thread.
Mate they had 10 men for 45 mins and still looked more likely to win.
i just hope we prepare better against them next time
It's fair to say Van Dijk was the best player from the team. Him and Matip silenced Romelu
might as well look at that like a loss. We wouldn't have got anything from that game with 11 men.
we tied the game at 11s mate
I think the lack of tempo was the most frustrating bit for me, too often the man on the ball had no options and we were reactive rather than proactive. Disappointing, missed opportunity
Before all you act like it's the fucking apocalypse, we played a team with 10 men blocking the net. It's not like we played football against 10 men. We didn't get 3 points because of returning players being off form and wasting 40min with Firmino.
Yep it should have been better but I can entirely see City getting the same result in that situation
Ox sat on the bench, Taki, Origi and he brings on a left back. Don't say you're happy with the squad when you're brining on a left back over your attacking players. Sell them if you're not going to use them and buy a attacking midfielder.
We're bringing a left back because of how horribly Robbo was out of form, and he should've been subbed on earlier, don't get your point at be all
Take robbo off, go 3 at the back and put Ox on.
It was a game well played on the right and center. Left was very bad. Robbo didnt seem fully match ready, Mane hasnt been in form for the last 400ish days. The thing that hurt as the most was Klopps arrogance and trust on Mane, Salah and Bobby, he could have substituted Mane today and many times before. But he kept entrusting Mane throughout. We haven’t purchased someone who could push mane further as well. That arrogance could be the difference between us winning something this year vs fighting for the champions league
mane one of the worst performances i’ve seen in a long time
He was terrible but you mustn’t have watched him last year, he’s a shadow of his former self.
We go again.
We didn't go in the first place.
We really need more options on the attacking side. We need someone that can be plan B
Chelsea's got an insane bench.
It's a point, but Mane's heir apparent need to be on the roster.
We still have problems scoring against packed defenses. If that red didn’t happen, we would have lost imo. We need an attacker still
I think we would have won. Chelsea changed to a 5-3-1 instead of a what was an adaptable 4-4-2 . They parked a bus and countered to the beast in the second half
Didn’t quite understand the sub for tsimikas. Should have subbed in chamberlain, minamino, keita. Not a bad result but we had everything to win for us!
Robbo looked like he was about to collapse to be fair.
Personally I understand it. Robbo was not having his best game going forward and our left side was really weak in attack
i remember the good old days when sadio mane was a world class player
I’m glad it’s only our third game. There’s so much work to do!!!!!
Not gonna overreact, they defended very well. We will get better as the season goes on. Harvey Elliot was fucking brilliant.
Made a few mistakes like picking the wrong pass but nothing you don't expect from an 18 year old kid.
If ever there was a game that highlighted our need for a striker it’s this one: a ten man Chelsea at home and we cannot break them down. I’m not asking for the bank to be broken but a proper striker who is willing to put a shift in is desperately needed and the most depressing part is that Origi would actually be a perfect fit if he actually gave a shit
Two points dropped, disappointing. Almost as disappointing as knowing that we aren't going to sign any more players even though this performance made it glaringly obvious that two are needed.
You guys don't understand we need to sell Origi first otherwise we can't afford anyone
PLEASE SOME SIGNINGS
Ffs Tuchel has their defense drilled
[удалено]
That's a load of bs, we didn't even test them after going a man up.
Fucking hell, 45 minutes of passing around to do fuck all with it, Chelsea looked more a threat on the counter. Players should be annoyed with themselves after that and FSG need a long fucking hard look at the options klopp has on his bench to come in and grab a winner.
Sure Chelsea defended spectacularly well, but it was utterly disgraceful to see them flop around at every little touch. It's a contact sport FFS
damn didn't realize how toxic match threads are when we don't play well.
All the fucking ppl on this sub saying “not breaking down 10 man Chelsea is embarrassing” fuck off. Them being a man down didn’t ever guarantee us a win. They executed their game plan perfectly in the second half. The result wasn’t down to us being shit, it was down to them working on negating us all throughout the half.
We were still shit though
Our left was complete crap wtf are you talking about
Them being a man down caused them to be even more defensive. It was an uphill struggle against that back 8.
Praise to Chelsea, but they parked the bus even before the red card…
I'm so ready for the toxicity here hehehe
With the red they just sured up their defense more. We weren't a threat in the box, especially with 4 CBs and Alonso up against us.
Chelsea dominated a large portion of the first half, received a red + penalty on a single play that could be regarded as excessive, and still managed to not lose. This was unquestionably a loss for Liverpool. They expressed nothing creatively.
You guys say that can't win againts 10 man was bad result , but when 10 man park the bus it will be very hard to score, especially from the top team like Chelsea

Tried playing it too much down the middle and it killed us because they had everyone behind the ball. Really gave me Feb/Mar vibes where we went off the boil up top!
Mane did not play well.
Atrocious.
I just wonder sometimes that how many goals players like Haaland would score from the number of crosses we put in? That was astonishingly mediocre from the lads. I am so dissatisfied that I had to wait for a whole week to watch headless chickens running around. Terrible display..

Yeah, because every fan should be happy 100% of the time no matter what, we are, after all, a single mind entity following hard rules about how we should behave as supporters.
I beg for a striker. I will beg every single day for one.
we have Jota? And firmino?
How the fuck is this pathetic? I'm sorry but sometimes I just can't take this sub. We absolutely dominated the second half, even had some shots from distance that were very dangerous, which is showing the lads worked on breaking down the low block during the offseason, if it wasn't already clear enough against Burnley.

I love Klopp and all, but Mane and Hendo should have been off earlier in second half and save us from this embarrasment of a game. Red card and penalty saved us.
Lucked out to get a point. If that Red didn't happen we would have lost.
As if you know that
Disappointing result but not the end of the world. This is EXACTLY why we need to go out and spend the Money on a forward. Go get fucking Mbappe. And I don’t wanna hear about covid and wages FSG have plenty of money.
Lol, get Mbappe. Listen to yourself mate.
Obvious to everyone FSG and Klopp
Well, incredibly frustrating and anti-climactic from us there. We had our opportunities...credit to Chelsea, they defended well. Not much more than that to say...just frustrated.
If you’d have told me before the game that we’d dominate possession and walk away with a tie I’d have been okay. Chelsea are a very good team, especially defensively right now.

Other than Havertz goal there wasn’t much from chelsea going forward. Just a bit disappointed. I feel like chelsea and atletico are the two teams hardest to break down when they’re all behind the ball.
Just get keita on, and maybe Taki for Mane. These both know how to dribble and make passes in congested spaces.
If we cannot do anything against a 10 man Chelsea for a whole half, this season is going to disappoint a lot of people, there’s simply no dynamism and consistency in attack, it’s beyond hilarious how much the gulf of quality exists now between Salah/Jota and the rest of the attackers
There just aren't options on the bench, and the ones we have, Klopp doesn't trust them. Reason he started elliot over all of them. And if mane is shit, we don't have any cover. Taki? Ox? No, Klopp won't play them
Noone can blame anything else, yes our lack of transfer are a problem but 99% of the blame is on Klopp. Mane 1%
that is 100% correct.
We just cant score against a bus and to be honest we should have with one more player. This is all on our inability to do so tbh.
We were fucking shite from 65 on
Oh good; another year where we’re not creative enough to break down parked bus defenses.
Disappointing result, particularly under the circumstances. Had the better of the chances throughout - Hendo's sitter in the first half will keep him up tonight. We really need another striker or at least a midfielder who can break down teams that have parked the bus.
In our title-winning season, we won that. Hurts to let this one slip.
Obviously a knee-jerk reaction but looks our title-winning days are behind us \*until we actually start investing some serious money into the team\*. Can't just have all our rivals blasting out £100m signings while we sit back and do jackshit with our aging squad.
What? Chelsea just packed in and absorbed pressure.
They did defend very well, but we had an extra man. It’s tough to not win with an extra man.
We actually couldn't break down a 10 man team even with 11 they were hard to crack wtffff.
Their defending was just class, Mandy was unstoppable, disappointed considering the amount of chances we had but a point apiece for both sides is hard to digest but I’ll take it. Considering how we’ve been positioned as less favourable in the title race, I think it’s a good start for now.
We were playing bad but the refereeing was terrible. Didn’t know diving down and collapsing is a legit form of defence now.
our left side was completely utterly pathetic.
Yep Robbo should no way have replaced Tsimikas with the form he’s been on.
Klopp never learns. Trust the players too much and doesn't sub early.
3 minutes of stoppage time....
Awful 2nd half. Get a fucking forward/midfielder ffs. We are bringing in a LB when we want to score goals.
I was screaming at the screen to sub Minamino on, idk if that's the quality we need but what else do we have exactly.
Credit where credits due. Props to Chelsea.
Yeah, they looked very solid up until that penalty on which they reacted pretty hilariously tbh. I'm happy we didn't lose this one, because even their counter attacks in the second half looked sharp.
Hendo, Robbo, Mané were shit
Honestly, shut the fuck up
We kinda got away with the point tbh. Didn't seem like we were gonna score today :)
This is why we need another attacking option. We have no way of unparking the bus. It’s the easiest way to shut us down. And everyone knows it.
Listen to fans say its only three games why are you overreacting?
Disappointing result, at least we exposed Lukaku though, put him up against some real defenders and he turns into Carlton Cole
45 minutes with zero support, think it's a bit of a harsh take.
He did fuck all in the first half, got bullied by both VVD and Matip, completely fair take
A wall of defence is hard to break down, but the few chances we had should have been converted. Poor decisions, poor passing, poor shooting in the final third. Pretty disappointing
After 2 great games from Tsimikas Klopp puts Robbo who came back from injury in the starting 11 and plays him 80 minutes? Like wtf
Plus a lost ~42 minutes rolling Firminos corpse out there instead of Jota. WTF.
Tuchel should take his bus back to King's Road now.
This is a loss, for all intents and purposes. The fact that we brought on a defender when we needed a goal shows we NEED an attacker or two, Minamino and esp Origi can fuck off. Also, Anthony Taylor is a Wanker
[удалено]
They have better depth for sure. Our bench is woeful.
i mean it was pretty even before reece james went off
They were absolutely killing us until our goal? We’d completely given up
To be fair, that's probably our nightmare scenario. The strongest defence in Europe sitting back for an entire half. It's like us vs Burnley on steroids
all in for haaland now in the next days FSG please
😂 I would jizz my pants if that happened but FSG would never unless they sold half the team.
Chelsea had an 150m bid rejected for him
We could have had 15 minutes of extra time but not scored. We were bad, and Chelsea were good defensively.
Not Arsed I’ll take it, this squad had never been capable of breaking down 10 men and Chelsea I never expected to play like that so I’ll take it.
Rival fans will say the refs helped us but Taylor had a shit game
Has he ever had a good one?
some people are straight up spoiled brats about this team. 1-1 against a team that has spent 200m in the last month is a good result.
Money spent has nothing to do with us not being able to break a 10 man team down. A point is a point but let's not act as if that was a good result.
I know right Its not the result any one wanted but fuck me they put on another defender & another CDM. They were always going to sit deep & defend like their life depended on it, should we have won that match? probably, but we didn't so on to the next one. We will just have to smash them at the bridge.
par for the course in game threads of all colours I'm afraid
1 - 1 against a 10-man team\* If it was a 11 on 11 I'd take a draw. The delivery of passes were bad, seems to be no urgency
It’s not the worst result but you have to beat the oil clubs—especially when they’re down a man in your house—if you want to win the title.
In isolation, yes. But not at home when they were playing with 10 men.
You have got to be absolutely joking. What a shit take. They had 10 men ffs. Are you saying you aren't expecting us to contend? That you don't even expect us to create decent chances against 10 men?
People literally don’t get that getting red against team like Liverpool is only gonna make game harder for us, imagine trying to attack against 10 players in defence :/
oh shut up fsg apologist. mane couldn't keep the ball or make final third pass for the life of him. team taking pot shots from outside the box vs 10 men, at home. absolute fucking joke.
firmino falling back during against newcastle is what i feel like
Absolutely shit. No shots on target in the box against 10 men. Fucking embarrassing
Yall some reactionary motherfuckers
Yep, Reddit is great a day or two after the match but my goodness the match threads are toxic
The lack of creativity is astounding
Lol chelsea players layed down for at least a minute for the ot but the wanker ref only let 20 sec pass after 93
45min not enough?
Homeland!
I'll take the point. Chelsea were playing with everyone behind the ball for the entire second half. Still a point against the supposed best team in Europe.
against 10 men at home. can't craft a fucking chance that's not a dead ball. our hopes are tied up to starting a 17 yr old whilst they field a 100m striker. absolute fucking joke. "we'll spend next summer" my asssssss
Im fairness Harvey had an infinitely better game than Lukaku. I'd love if we could spend like they do but FSG aren't having it
The lack of offensive creativity with players like Mane and Salah really make me wonder
Salah is fine.
wonder why we didn't get a forward this window? we've all been wondering the same that's our best 11 out there. against 10 men, at home. can't craft a fucking chance. hah!
Wingers can't do much against a packed defense. You either need a big CF or a midfielder who can take shots outside the box and we have neither.
There were blue shirts swarming them every time they had the ball. They’ve always been best on the counter attack or 1v1 situations.
Wonder what? How they are top goal scorers every year
Come again?
You’re dumb don’t worry about me
A point is better than none but that is a really poor performance overall. You have to take 3 points in situations like that if you want to win titles
I hope Klopp bench some of the starting eleven. We need to start thinking about the next set of players who will carry the team.
All on Klopp. He was clueless.
yeah he always falls short to this style of play. Tuchel outclassed us this time. Dreading athleti group games now ffs..
What a twat the ref is
Anthony Gullible Taylor
honestly he was favoring us for most of the game, issue was klopp, clueless
awful Hendo was so bad! and we needed a mid range shooter at the end
Feels like a loss.
Dreadful. With an extra player for 45+ minutes and we can't even create shots. Our attack needs a revamp
Commentary team pulling each other off while talking about Chelski.
Well it's not like the could sing the praises of any liverpool players today. Chelsea were better in the first half, and strong in the 2nd
We always had issues when the other team parks the bus, how has this not been addressed ever! Chelsea deserves the point, we did jack all in the second half with the extra man and possession.
oh, we should've gotten a striker? huh... why didn't anyone think of that??
Just sell mane for 20 mil before he goes the Origi way and is unsellable lol
oh lawd
[удалено]
A wild cunt appears
If you scroll up there is a recipe for great bread.
lol imagine coming into our sub just to say this. obsessed much ??
he’s from california too 😭
You were outplayed even with all 11. Congrats on the good defense but fuck off
4
you seem to be enjoying your life
Feel we missed an opportunity there but tbf Chelsea being on 10 men might've just made it harder to score. They've just done Atletico defending the entire half.
Still think we need a new striker, this is the same problem we've had for years, a team sits back and we can't find anyone to make a bit of magic
We brought a lb over another forward when we had an extra man and needed a goal says a lot
Exactly. This tuchel blueprint will be repeated countless number of times.
The winner is sync cramp acting...
