Should it be "Poo-Lee-Sich"? That what I've been saying.

Like this Chelsea very much. Told this on Sunday as well . Very well drilled and cohesive. Press as a unit and players keep moving.
We were lucky we got them first day of the season. This Chelsea once settled down, wouldn't be easy to play against.

Even more Chelsea if you call him Chopper Gilmour
That's true. I mean, Henderson, wijnaldum and the like don't exactly scream creative quality, does it.
Of course Klopp realize this, it’s some of his trade marks but does he want to? That’s a different question. We know Pep would not change the philosophy...
I think after everyone plays 10 or so games, we'll have a good picture of what the season could look like. Too many of us are obsessed with drawing conclusions this early
the amount of ball Chelsea are winning in MF is repelling the LFC press, for me
win the ball back & exploit the nominal DM (Fabinho) being caught out of position when they do, leaves them attacking the CBs who don't look so comfortable when that happens
I like it

The lack of signing the 2 midfielders was diabolical.
But that is how you pronounce the latter name though, and they probably call Pulisic that because he's American and they don't tend to stick with literal pronunciations.
But it wouldn't be the caf without fickleness!
Forgot they were on the pitch for the first 30 minutes. But as Ole says, we're a work in progress. and how good Chelsea look tonight won't change the fact that they were shit in defence and we took advantage with our pace. We won 4-0 and they can rue their missed chances but that's football.
Hopefully we'll learn that we can't concede as much possession in midfield and win games.
It makes sense, it means we have actually a manager and a team that is able to hurt even the best teams, like Chelsea...
Yeah - they're pronouncing it Americanized.
Maybe Pulisic asked for it to be pronounced that way too.
From a Sunday maybe, not the recent one.
You should stop hitting the woodwork though, that would be my advice.
I thought chelsea signed him just to sell more shirts.
I'll send a Whatsapp to Frank now, cheers.
Welcome to the fickle world of the matchday thread
People went way over the top about Chelsea on Sunday. I like how Lampard's got them playing so far. Very good to watch.
fecking hate Steve McMannaman. Hated him as a player, hate him as a pundit. He's just an absolute bellend with no redeeming qualities. 
That's the rule.
I probably to it myself from time to time tbf.Welcome to the fickle world of the matchday thread
We're going to regret not signing a midfielder.
That's how the man himself pronounces it.
It really wouldn't
You and Us both
Pulišić (-shitch). Though to be fair he wasn't born in Croatia and the name has been Americanised. Just sounds stupid to me. In Germany no one called him - sick (no pun intended).
Very enjoyable half. Such a relief to play some good football after two years of abysmal stuff.
They are very good side.
The difference was marginal Sunday.
Key of course is taking your chances.
It's staggering how many people think Liverpool were lucky last season!
You don't get 97 points and a Champions League win by luck!

I am personally hoping for gomes to be given a chance. That guy is great.
Looking at Liverpools defence - they have so little depth. Why did they get rid of Lovren? if they get a couple of injuries they could really struggle.
1-1
fecking basic stuff man.
No, it's not. Mateo has three syllables, not two.
Jokers
Did Kepa ever saved a shot? Better than DDG my ass
Ohhhh okay yeah I get it now
We started the 17-18 season with Klavan, Lovren and Matip as our CB's and were stuck like that until we signed Van Dijk in January.
Crazy isn't it?
Yes. In the first half.
Such a scrappy goal
Poor goalkeeping from Kepa
That makes no sense.
