Szoboszlai!!!!
#LFC
Szoboszlai!!!!
#LFC
It used to be Endo to seal it. Is it "run dammit" time with Koumas now?
#LFC
Ugh. Plenty of defenders, but my kingdom for one who anticipates the run.
#LFC
The assumption was Barcola on the left, but Rio has lined up there early.
#LFC
Barcola is just so silky smooth. Beautiful touch out of the air and forced a good save.
#LFC
I was yelling for a foul, but credit to the referee who saw there was no contact at all.
#LFC
Two ridiculous referee decisions (or lack thereof) in a row. Got the crowd good and throaty, though.
#LFC
What a clever pass from Araujo... little backheel sweep, after rotating his body to box out the defender.
#LFC
Really good, strong save from Alisson, who was howling mad at Szoboszlai for a half-assed blocking effort.
#LFC
Replay shows a clear foul. Commentators discuss a clear foul. Referee sees no foul and spends all kinds of time arguing about leaving the field for an injury stoppage WHEN HE COULD HAVE PREVENTED THE STOPPAGE BY CALLING THE FOUL.
#LFC
Things you notice... wingers that backtrack. Saw Barcola do it repeatedly in the first half, then just now Kerkez came forward to make a challenge and Munoz is already got him covered. Hopeful signs for a squad that wants to continue to harass the opposition when out of position.
#LFC
Had to step out to pick up a kiddo from school. Paramount has no pause feature, so I've missed 25 minutes. Came back in time to see Atleti asking for a yellow card, which the referee doesn't seem to know is itself a yellow card.
Just saw the replay of the Mac Allister strike. Wow.
#LFC
Good win. For a work in progress there is plenty to be happy about. For starters, the intensity is massively improved over last season.
Szoboszlai is my MOTM, but a special shout out to Isak and Wirtz for some terrific pressing.
Jacquet and Araujo look very promising. As much as I was sorry to see Konate leave, I'm thinking #LFC has a good replacement.
Hope those who limped off …
#lfc
Do we want a penalty or a yellow card?
#lfc
Rio looks off.
#lfc
WTF, they ran half the pitch as an honour guard for Wissa.
#lfc
Gakpo moves more central and boom.
First Ipswich foul at 33 minutes. #LFC have 8 (1 yellow), all accrued in 24 minutes.
Mike Dean would be proud...
The offside decision is correct. Unlucky.
#LFC
Was the second assist an outside of the boot pass?
#LFC
I like Munoz. Direct and speedy. Looks like a nightmare to defend.
#LFC
oh wow, Isak. Just rocked everyone to sleep. Goalkeeper having a howler. Might have been unsighted.
#LFC
The softness of that foul deserved getting a yellow card by proxy of an assistant coach. Very unbalanced in the decisions.
#LFC
Very happy to see Nyoni come on. The lack of midfield investment in the transfer window creates a huge opportunity for him. I think he's ready.
#LFC
Pretty nice first touch from Isak on a well-timed run... good patience not to stray offside.
Gakpo with the assist and showing why he was wanted by other big clubs. Happily #LFC reversed course and avoided shipping him away.
Bright start!
Flashbacks to Ekitike playing through repeated pulls and grabs and not going down.
Commentators are so interested in "ball first" as if that's the only place a foul might occur.
#LFC
Help me understand. Alisson gets called for a penalty last week in which he contacted the attacking player in the box after the ball was away. Gakpo is just cleaned out by a sliding Fatawu in the box after having passed the ball and... ???
#LFC
Elanga blew Kerkez out of the water on the counter and Alisson is beaten to the far post. Not a great start as no midfielder covered for Gravenberch who’d gone forward (and should have shot)
#LFC
If you haven't seen it, the video tribute for Kevin Keegan from the club is beautifully done. It will stir something in your soul.
