He’s been great, given Max nor Endo not in.Jones been busy in the box tonight…
Agree with protecting leads but what we're doing far more is actually getting the first goal and leading games. Last season we would concede the first goal almost all the time and we were always playing catch up.One thing we're much better at this season is game management, we protect leads better. It does result in games being much more cagey and scrappy looking but it's getting the job done
Was it reversed or just on hold while it’s being reviewed?Nunez’s ban got reversed, he played during internationals
Liverpool are not letting 2 goals a game in is what is off.Good to get the win but the performances are still not good. Something just seems off and I can't put my finger on exactly what it is.
That ref was an absolute bellend in the 2nd half.
We're all still used to the heavy metal football under Jurgen. Arne's team plays more measured. As QuietB said we are not conceding so easily resulting in chasing games. Curtis Jones is better than just a depth player so have no issue with him starting games. We still need a specialist number 9.
There were a few parts in the game when I was just yelling at the screen for the lads to hold onto the ball for a bit and not chuck it away cheaply.We're all still used to the heavy metal football under Jurgen.

Szo would want to keep an eye on Jones given Slot wants more goals from that position and Jones looked a lot more dangerous than Szo last night.Yeah, I've had enough of posts where we list our midfielders and it's like "Endo, Jones and Morton as depth..." When Jones is at his best, press-proof, retaining possession and making forward runs, he's as good as anyone we have. He's not depth: he's one of our four mids I'm happy to see start any time.
I thought Nunez was really good last night - didn't get any clear cut chances but he was a menace defensively.There were a few parts in the game when I was just yelling at the screen for the lads to hold onto the ball for a bit and not chuck it away cheaply.
As for a striker, if you are worried about Jota's injury record, or Nunez's consistency. I reckon Openda is a good option.
100%We played poorly overall and won against a good side with threat. Plenty to like.

Liverpool have so much more control now. That has to mean less output offensively. Last night they clearly played with a lower press to ensure Palmer had no space to play in and it worked.
It might not be as pretty but Liverpool have let in three goals in 8 games - last year it was 10.
