Alisson has been brilliant at 1v1s this season. Arguably their player of the season.

Said this before as well and it’s definitely the case. Get a chance and it’s like “shit, shit, I’m about to score!… oh, no”
Faced more 1v1s than anyone in the league, mad stat. Cue the “not really, they play a high line.. etc etc”
Odds are in favour of the attacker in a 1v1. Don’t know what qualifies as a big chance though so can’t comment.
Is that any wonder when the opposition miss so many chances against them? If anything that speaks for the alarming regularity teams get behind Liverpool.
Any stats on his performances from years prior?
Spawny cnuts at it again.
Said it before but still nothing to change my mind that Liverpool 2018-2022 are the jammiest team in football history.

How'd you geta corner when the player challenging for the ball was offside. Feckin rules make no sense.
It's to be expected when they play as high as they do. They just shouldn't get away with it so often. With De Gea they would look terrible (like us).
True.
I have often wondered, does VAR check after goals from corners when referee did a wrong call giving the corner?
But not all 1v1s are equal though.
Scoring from 10-12 yards when the GK is passively positioned inside the 6 yard box is much easier than scoring the same shot when the GK is only 3 yards in front of you and covering a much larger area of the goal.
Liverpool play some utter dross a lot of the time yet it’s very rarely mentioned.
Hideous, ping-pong football.

Well if you've already discounted the reason that they concede so many 1 vs 1 chances ( high line/ sweeper keeper who's maybe the best in the world right now) then of course it seems like witchcraft.
Liverpool luck carrying on I see.
The Premier League is so boring these days. These City and Liverpool games are so tedious. It's almost lifeless because everyone knows the result.
That is an incredible miss.
Still surprising.
That just now was definitely another ‘big chance’. The brilliance of Alisson on show again.
The tradition of missing sitters against them continues.
What a miss
Gotta equalise there
Gotta equalise there
And another one missed. It's getting beyond a joke now. They are never punished for defensive errors
The Liverpool fortune of opponents missing big chances goes on.
It’s because they have a World Class goalkeeper.
Exactly , they are obviously playing the percentages.
I seen on Twitter during the week that it looks like they aren't blocking shots around the box so that Alisson has a clear sight of the shot etc
Joao Pedro rifles that in at Old Trafford, the Etihad, the Emirates etc.
Without question.
Without question.
Bad miss but Sarr is a very talented player.
Wonder who'll pick him up end of the season as it's surprising he's stayed at Watford this long.

That’s not true. That’s horrendous coaching if it is.
He'll go to Liverpool for about 8 million. Everyone else will be quoted 60 million, just like happened with Jota
Why does no team man mark Jota?
100%
Watford will make a good game of it, have a few chances, then Liverpool will get a deflected second with 10 mins to go
Not even a bad idea, the amount of deflected goals we concede is crazy.
Still nonsense. You can’t give teams free shots at goal and rely on horrendous misses to get by. It smacks of trying to make sense of this missing sitter run they’re on while ignoring the obvious reasoning.
Johnny Giles always said Klopp was a one trick pony with a very good trick.
Yeah I was listening to Second Captains and they were talking about it. Apparently, it's the higher % play which is the way football is going. We'll probably see the end of long range screamers within 10 years or so for the same reasons.
Liverpool are winning every single game from now until the end of the season. Literally no chance and If teams get a goal you can be sure they get a 90th minute penalty
I said this the other week and was called a 10 year old for saying it
Ok but I'm not denying that teams miss chances vs Liverpool.
Of course they are making mistakes but I feel they are Playing the percentages, they are backing Alisson to save or the player to bottle it. (Joao Pedro has 2 goals in 20 games in the league for example)
Strangely though nobody on here is highlighting (or rarely do) Liverpool's misses (Jota 2 today alone) which were as bad as Watfords.
Yeah that's my take on it too.
I don't think it's possible that Klopp/ Liverpool are unaware of the statistics.
Firmino allowed to push defenders over without a foul being given. Great refereeing.... twat
That was compliment! You are so ungrateful.I said this the other week and was called a 10 year old for saying it
Liverpool’s luck is absolutely incredible. It’s almost like the opposition don’t believe they can score against them.
I refuse to accept this Liverpool as anything special.
