Up there with the most boring halves of football i've seen in years.
Get some shots off from distance. We're not gonna play through them.

It's quiet and they mentioned that, i'm sure i've heard them say it about other teams when it is as quiet.


I'd love to be proven wrong but I don't think I will.

Maybe, i'll keep an ear out.
Not gonna lie though, the atmosphere is generally dross at our games. We all criticize it on here so can't moan too much when it's picked up on.


The whole point is that at times only thing you can hear during 15min spell at Anfield is someone's fart from the Kop. And when suddenly there's a small cheer, commentators immediately say something like listen to that roar from the Liverpool faithful. Always a special atmosphere here at Anfield.
When even deaf men can hear it is silent like in library

When a side plays like this, so static, so deep, if we're not inspired to pass & move properly then it should be 3 passes & a shot over & over. Sooner or later one would either go in, or they would have to change it to stop us taking shots.

There was no purpose whatsoever to that half. We have just wasted 45 mins of the season. All those quality players & the outcome in terms of chances, is no better than Joe Royle's team would have produced vs the same tactic.

The players & the Count need to earn their wages here. We have lost all of the clever play we have seen in recent games. All playing in front of them.

Whole heartedly agree with the sentiment of shooting from distance. Make the goalie work. The surface is slick making it diffucult for the goalie. If we had 10 or 12 shots on target I reckon one would be a goal

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Someone needs to tell this ref that being stronger than your opponent isn't a foul.
