GWT: PL Matchweek 1

[robertmac43]

These kits continue to grow on me as the game goes on.

 

[Peen]

Should have used Caballero

 

[Peen]

happy kurt baby

 

[robertmac43]

**** That is a brutal way to concede, may be the dagger.

 

[Blender]

Zouma!

 

[koyvoo]

What a crusty goal

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Zouma!!!!

 

[robertmac43]

Poor Ryan, did not deserve that. Brutal set piece defending and lazy attempt to block from Webster.

 

[Blender]

Scoreline is harsh on BHA, but I'll take it.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Sorry pal

 

[robertmac43]

Sorry pal

**** happens. Now I just don't want you to score 4 as I was so sure that would not happen earlier in the thread

 

[Evilo]

Yeah, that's a harsh game for Brighton. Deserved at least 1 point from the game and instead they're down by 2.

 

[robertmac43]

Dunk missing that sitter is going to haunt me tonight...

 

[robertmac43]

March can go, so frustrating...

 

[Peen]

Two awful mistakes and one world class strike.

Bad finishing and lack of consistent on target attempts from Brighton.

Barkley also waiting way too long to make that pass to Werner. I think guys are underestimating his speed.

Not just in France. 22/23.
Yes, I think Milner is shooting them or at least used to because Salah and Mane fought over one a while back.

Jorginho is 21/22, the only miss in Serie A in 2017.

I mean, I am spitballing, without any clear knowledge. However, I believe that Klopp wants a veteran experienced hand with it, and I also believe there’s some statistical data for that situation. Everything else they do is deeply based in stats and analytics, so I really feel there’s got to be some reason. I do know they’ve done them in training and Milner is basically automatic there. With Henderson not really being that type of player, I think it makes sense. I mean, they have crazy data on penalties for keepers and tendency of shooters, as Adrian said post Super Cup. So it would make sense that they’re doing the same internally.

At this point, I think the shift to Salah is two fold. He’s pretty good, and it helps fuel him. He really does want to score each time, and he plays better when he is scoring. If he gets a few cheap ones at the spot, it’s better for the team. Fabinho doesn’t need the stats to feel good. Mane might, but he’s a team player first, for better or worse. I don’t really think the dispute was between him and Mane (there might have been, but not like we’ve seen in other clubs) about penalties, though they have gotten after each other for passing.

That's Barkley though, when he has time to think, he tends to choose poorly.

 

[Peen]

Big save from Kepa there

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Quiet debut for Kai, but he's only been training with the team for a week.

 

[bleedblue1223]

It's clear Havertz hasn't had much time with the 1st team.

 

[bleedblue1223]

Quiet debut for Kai, but he's only been training with the team for a week.

And how much of it was in isolation? Didn't really follow, but I know the first training was isolated away.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Wouldn't mind Abraham in for Mount to see how he and Werner work together

The videos they released of his training were all by himself I think.
