Lighthouse

I thought he was being booed for a foul on Moi, which he wasn't booked for. Seemed to stop about 10 minutes after that incident.

They dealt with everything thrown at them, even when the rest of the team in front of them had stopped playing, second half. Neither striker caused problems, Long especially. When put through on goal, he managed to 'control' the ball out for a goal kick, from further out than Hojbjerg's goal. Then he was put through again and just fell over. Then he fell over in the box again, looking for a penalty and grabbed the ball, so he gave away a free kick. Then he fell asleep and allowed Duffy a free header for their first goal. He is useless.

It will only be the point that keeps us up because of the other shed load of others we've thrown away. It's like congratulating MoPe for the draw at home to Udders last season because that kept us up.

How anyone can say Ings and Long were better than the two centre halves I have no idea. Fair play to Ings for the goal but he did little else. Long did nothing AND lost his man for a their first goal.

Complaining about the ref in this one is like leaving your wallet on your dashboard on a rough council estate, then complaining about crap the Police are when it gets nicked. We orchestrated that situation perfectly, I'm not sure what some of you were expecting.

True but when it's so close to the end, it's extra sickening. We just get worse and worse as the game goes on until it gets to the point, as against Everton and Man City, where we can't even stick it in the car park with 10 seconds left to get a result.

Just seen the replay, he was a good yard outside the box when he headed it. That's not a 'keepers ball IMO. Give credit to Brighton, it was an excellent delivery but Long gave them a free header.

We've proven we can at least play well. We have the talent and plenty of Premier League experience, even if a lot of it is mediocre. I'd certainly rather be us than Burnley, Newcastle, Udders or Cardiff. West Ham, Brighton and Fulham are hardly impressive either. Today was a small improvement on Leicester, which was a small improvement on Burnley (performance wise). I think we will be okay. We have at least settled on a starting 11, something Puel and MoPe never did.

I thought Hoedt had a good game, likewise Vest. It was silly mistakes from set pieces by Long and JWP which lead to the goals, nothing to do with Hoedt.

That was Long's man all day long. Half asleep and gave Duffy a free header.

4 of our last 8 games now. What is wrong with these players mentally, we just retreat into our own box and freeze, every time?

Here please

Flippin' heck Long.

Who's man was that? Looked like Long.

1 min? Hoedt was on the floor for 2 and we had a goal (not that I'm complaining).

He must have a foot like a traction engine!

F**king pick that out!

Lemina, Hoj and Redmond looking decent so far.

The frig was that?!

Here please.

Not people's worth, their salary. Big difference.

I'd imagine most of them are on a last chance to prove they're good enough. The players out on loan (and Gallagher) will be 22-24 by the end of the season, about the age most of them will be moved on if they're not good enough. Sims may get another season.

Against the team that had Origi instead of Salah, Mignolet instead of Allison, Lucas instead of Keita, Matip instead of Van Dijk, Mané injured and when Firmino was rather mediocre. Basically we kept Coutinho quiet (for once) and that was it.

Hopefully that will earn him a start in the next couple if games.
