There's an inevitability about the way Liverpool play.
Is it the system or the players that make them look so slick? How many of our players would be successful in that Liverpool team under Klopp?

Wolves are a very well drilled side. It’s been hard for us to create much so far.

Both. The players have played together a long time so there is a certain automatism that is hard to replicate elsewhere. Klopp is obviously the big x factor with Liverpool. He's cultivated a system that gets the best out of all the key players.

Looking at this game so far though, it looks like an awful lot like our first half against West Ham.

It does make you wonder what could've been if we pulled the trigger after the Liverpool debacle.
4 extra points? Guess its conceivable that could be the difference come May

Can’t believe Coady isn’t immediately jumping up there. Coward

Disgusting complaint for a foul. The keeper was well outside the 6 yard and even then there was nothing there.

Because Coady was really hurt and not faking it for a free out?
David wasn’t faking? He was legit raked down the Achilles?
I just saw Coady lay on the byline not looking where the ball was. I thought that was an act of treachery.
No Liverpool player hurt him so ref had no right to stop it etc etc.
Near enough the exact same scenario

Broja looks a fantastic striker already. Along with Gilmour and Gallagher, all three could do a job for Chelsea this season.

Its not even close, David got caught but he would have got up and played on if he was looking the right way, there is a full thread of your own supporters saying as much over in the United forum. Coady was caught and genuinely hurt, Liverpool also didn't have to put the ball out they chose to. Had Salah scored it would have been a similar situation and no one would bat an eye. Not the same scenario at all. One was hurt, one wasn't the length of treatment and reactions after show the truth.
Coady stayed off the pitch allowing the game to continue.

Liverpool stopped it not the ref.

This is a really dumb take.

If David was faking it why he didn't go all the way but got up later? If he faked it wasn't it better to just lay down there and make a big scene out of that?

Use your brain for a second ffs.

Who says he would have got up? Have you seen many players suffer studs down the Achilles just pop up? This is my point, you will not see players pop up after bad challenges to the ankles, it does not happen.
And fair play Liverpool, a bit of sportsmanship. Would have been easy to whip a ball in on top of the keeper but choose not to. The only difference there is Coady is lucky they aren’t facing Arsenal while David was.
Look at Coady, up running about a few minutes later, couldn’t have been that bad etc etc.
Can’t believe he wasn’t following the ball when he was down injured and didn’t know where the play was.

Hopefully Coady has to come off before he can hand Liverpool his customary gift

Just whacked 25 quid on Liverpool to win. You can thank me when Wolves nick a point. :D

Thiago fouled him four times in the same passage of play and doesn't get booked? :lol:
