How many clear chances for Palace now?

But this will be counted as a comfortable win for Liverpool but if it was us, it would be us being lucky.
Not really, Liverpool have completely outplayed them, but Palace got few decent counter attacks. 11 shots, 66% possession, 5 corners...

Leicester v Brighton 0-0 at HT. Won't be easy for Leicester to take all 3 points at all, Brighton are in good form atm.

Don't know if it's just cause I've been watching United a lot, but every team seems to have massively improved their counter attacking this season.

Decent half but sloppy mistakes let Palace in towards the end of that half. We’ve been poor in games when leading at times this season.

I don't think defending is great tbf, if van Dijk was quality as he used to be probably neither of these counter attacks would probably happen

To be fair to you, you have highlighted this a bit lately. I wasn’t particularly aware of it until I saw you mention it, but you lot certainly aren’t as clinical at seeing games out from winning positions as the 2017-2020 variety in retrospect.

Burnley normally shithouse a result away from home every season against one of the big 6, usually us or Chelsea. Today is not going to be that day.

Definitely. We lack control in games and we’ve led in as many league games as City but they’ve seen all of those games out whereas we’ve dropped points in five or six of them.

You always have a chance against this version of Klopp’s Liverpool.

Arsenal are going to win it 2-0 or something in the end.

Palace are going to score again. Seen this too many times this season.

Is this tiredness from Liverpool? They've switched off since about 30 minutes
We’re a bit short at the moment. After today we’ll have Thiago, Elliott, Origi and probably the AFCON gang all back.

I don't understand why so many people rate Matip highly.

His balance is poor, his passing is erratic, he's weak in the air for someone his size.

They could do much, much better than him.
