@orlacsm Only downside being he will need at least a couple of months to get back into stride so I don’t think we see the best of him this season unfortunately. Next season we cook!
@GrizzKhan I dont think there was much wrong with the tackle, that’s what you would expect in a cup game against a lower league opponent…hard tackles flying in. Agree on the sending off part though!
@asim_lfc The best compliment anyone could give Iraola right now is how he has managed the young ones, could have easily overplayed them and burnt them out but his man management skills have been top notch. Rio and Nyoni will be superstars!!
@faayfr Good on him, he is a real one :) May Allah SWT bless him with a long and healthy life. Makes me miss my dad (read best friend) a lot more today :’)
Think Iraola deserves far more credit than the general consensus seems to be right now, he’s lost ONE match at Liverpool, to City. They’re 3 wins from 3 in the UCL, on 15 points after 8 games (71-ish point pace), utilising Nyoni, Koumas, Rio, McConnell. They were one of the teams whose transfer business was most worrying, Araujo’s done well but RB, LB, central midfield, he’s managed those issues near-perfectly. Still so much to be improved on even from a coaching POV but in a transition season with a sub optimal “rebuild” in the summer, you couldn’t have asked for much more.
@UTDAlex81@htomufc Lol, shows you haven’t watched a single Liverpool match and just here spouting shit out of envy. The work Iraola has done to lift the squad, fans while achieving results in a harder set of games (yes, a dig at United) - needs to be appreciated.
@LBLFC_ Easily the best midfielder on the pitch tonight. That turn to take out Caicedo was unreal, only if the final pass to Gakpo was slightly better it would have been an all-time great assist.
@sxlmss How far Grav has fallen off is unbelievable. Couldn’t make simple passes, looked so low on confidence when taking the penalty that I was 100% sure he will miss. I really hope he gets back to the levels he was playing at couple of seasons ago, we will need him this season.
@CouchNish What a game bro, daughter woke up early to watch the game with me. By full-time the whole family was so invested that we had to get a late slip at school 🤣 love this club man!!
