It's a decent podcast and I admit it took a while for me to warm to it again this PL season after how atrocious last PL. Daz can be a bit dour but cut him in half he'd bleed Burnley and he is only one who hasn't been a reporter as sorts so he just tends to say things as he sees it and I don't mind t...

Weather forecast good for today if any Clarets in Ireland are going to the match.

En route as we speak. It's a georgous blue sky and sunshine day (after a pretty grey and miserable week)

Frustrating seeing us counter quickly but to then almost slow to a halt and start passing it and around the back of their box. Quickly disposessed. Very lethargic apart from Anthony and Foster

Bloody awful conditions mind

criminalclaret

Can you sit up there or is it only for display? Looks class anyway!

I agree with the overall consensus of this thread. Being able to compete/sustain for large periods, going toe-to-toe and digging in against the top teams in reassuring to see. I'm sure Parker is seeing these moments as big learning steps for a relatively young and inexperienced PL side. As frustrati...

That encroaching player is in the peripheral vision of the keeper.

20 players and the referee are in the peripheral vision of the keeper.

Same old Oliver always cheating He was desperate to give Liverpool all three points Yawn. In fact I actually worry avout people's mentality on here at time No one to blame but ourselves. Liverpool could have been playing until Monday and not scored in open play, we gifted it to them after a fantast...

He jumps to block. Arm is natural position. Its blasted at him with no time to react. Big club pen, we won't get those. Big Les is off for second yellow, first yellow should not happen because of the foul on Ekdal before. Like I said small inconsistencies in their favour and then late on he gives t...

If anyone here actually contests that penalty as some sort of conspiracy then you must be brain-dead football fans. Absolutely stone wall peno completely down to Hannibal

criminalclaret

Brain-dead from Hannibal after a masterclass of superb defending.

Can't quite believe we didn't get anything from that. 2 on the trott absolute moronic things to do in your own penalty box in the dying seconds

The first thing I did when I got to Pompeii arena was run to the spot where Dave Gilmour was stood. I won't tell you what Mrs dc said. I was sat at the top of the one of opera ampi-theatres(?) and I was just blown away, absolute stunning. Apparently they have 3/4 open air small concerts and operas ...

Done a good chunk of holidays in Italy over the last few years - Rome, Tuscany, Amalfi Coast, Lake Como, Naples to name but a few. Amalfi / Sorrento do have expensive areas but nothing eye watering other than Positano which as flooded with wealthy Americans and Chinese. But it is stunning to go arou...

Yeah its a very good sci fi movie with a good social commentary. But its certainly a "one and done" movie.

Last 20 mins were unneeded, it had come to its natural conclusion by that point and went a bit OTT but the movie theme itself provided a decent talking point.

criminalclaret

On paper some excellent signing, as others have said won't tell until we get some of them up to fitness, so the international break is actually pretty useful to use for a change. One area I think we should have covered is CB. Don't think Ekdal is good enough for this level, Worall just coming back ...

It’s odd. I absolutely thought that Walker challenge was a penalty, but VAR correctly flagged it up from another angle. We benefited from that one. The Foster offside - what can you say? I don’t agree with such minuscule measurements, but the assistant ruled it out anyway. How he could have been su...

criminalclaret

I don't really buy any of this VAR against us b**ocks, I think we just have sore losers here. Mount pen claim - the right call. Had a ref not had Var and is looked from behind Walker, he is never seeing the pull and so decision stands Foster offside goal - you have to be clear and obvious to be onsi...

Mersons just said on Sky it should have been 6 or 7 to united, he's a complete bell end

It absolutely should have been first half! We were awful!

criminalclaret

It was a clear pull that started outside the box and then carried on into the box It is a pen Trouble is VAR don't give them enough Yeah exactly, I don't any grumbles with the overall decision. A weird weird game if I'm honest. We defended abysmally 1st half and early into the second. And have to a...

Dubravka so close it as well.

Mental match. Lot to be happy with, lot to be annoyed and frustrated with.

criminalclaret

I have absolutely no idea why he choose to do it.

Pen or FK, was brain dead decision from Anthony after a great second half from him.

Braindead from Anthony

Ekdal has been superb for me, even better than Steve today.

Did you watch the first half?

So glad we got Dubravka!

Don't post that in the Dubravka thread

criminalclaret

Are we having fun yet? Seriously, some of the negativity here is unhinged. Sure, we look slow and leaky at times, but we're causing them problems and could be a goal up apart from a questionable offside. UTC Our second half attacking performance has been fantastic, something we never showed at all ...

criminalclaret

It's nice to know we still have a goal threat. And 1 goal down with 30 mins to go is still decent.

One think I do know is that I want to put Lee Hendrie in a wheely bin and personally see it squashed in a compactor. He's an absolute "melt" of a pundit.

criminalclaret

That is genuinely pathetic from us and the exact kind of ‘thing’ you simply cannot do at this level. Yeah I don't mind getting beat by wondergoals (aka Spurs) but can't be giving team glaring space there. On another note, Foster has looked super sharp when he has been given opportunities which is n...

Christ is Mbeumo didn't get it Fernandez has 10 yards of space.

Why are we do ridiculous disorganised at the back this year. It's just defending 101.

1-0 down at HT after that display (Utd playing like a team possessed and we barely look composed in any form) is actually a superb result. A better team would have put 5 past us. Dubrovka making some superb saves. Don't mind us not being able to compete in their box but very disappointed with how po...

Do you just support teams that play in claret and blue? Are West Ham your third team?

Who do you support when they play each other?

Fair rileybobs, balanced perspective and I understand that perspective as well. And communication can always be improved in any organisation.

criminalclaret

This is right, it was avoidable with communication, and it is disappointing to find an “I’m all right Jack” mocking from many posters on here after too, coupled with the lack of empathy from the club. This is the crux of my point though that out of the 1000s who may benefit from these changes, they...

Funny seeing the faces of the Bob lord lot looking over at us. I can’t get my head around sitting down and not cheering your own team on.

Definitely growing into the game. I don't think we are the better team but we are making the right moves into the right places.
