I mean you could even see it in the Everton game, Everton hadn't really turned up but even then the quality of their play just completely out shined ours. Their play seemed so effortless by comparison, and I mean if we pale against a side who is clearly uninterested in the match, then I'm really worried when our fitness is put to the test against giants.

As long as you give everything, there is every chance of a upset mate. I always say get to at least 19 points by New Year's Day (or roughly the 20 game mark) to have a fighting chance. Or you could always have a miracle like we had and beat manure, Chelsea, draw at Man city and win two home games inbetween!

Looking at Man Utd during their first game, and their last seasons performance, I think we can at least draw. It'll be an uphill struggle up until that game, bu from there the season gets a lot brighter looking for us until we get to Swans.

True.

I honestly thought we looked really sloppy, especially as the game went on, but the wild, scrappy, hungry style of play seemed to cancel Everton out all together. By the middle of the second half I forgot Leicester were even playing anyone. With all the injuries forcing off key players, it's all the more frustrating - I think Wood only got the goal that he did because he was fresh on the pitch. Ulloa was great though, Morgan was great, some key saves by Moore, some awesome chances by Nugent and Mahrez. And what a climax to the match, incredible start.

Good to get something on the open day.

Lucky Liverpool as usual.

Southampton basically played themselves considering Liverpool have bought what...four players from them? Desperately trying to fill the gap Suarez left behind, I guess. I'm hoping that gap is something we can exploit further down the line.

Someone needs to go back to maths class if they think we signed 4 players from Southampton. Maths isn't my strong point but Lallana Lambert and Lovren makes 3.

When Arsenal play the saints and have Ox Walcott and Chambers are Southampton basically playing themselves.

This thread has gone to the shits.

Why can't you debate or discuss things about football even when they include your club Liverpool when someone says like what i said that Southampton were unlucky to not get a draw yesterday you take it as a personal attack.

To be fair, it was a question, not a statement, hence the question mark. Liverpool were after another player from Southampton that didn't work out. Probably why people thought it was four.

I can take criticism but as other members that posted in here come into the thread and see all the arse licking they can't be bothered posting.

It's not talking about football it's just constantly agreeing with everyone
