I can understand Howe sticking with Trippier through a bad spell because, as we stand, he leads the league in assists from right back. Burn seems like a bit of blind loyalty from the outside but, at the same time, a lot of our set pieces, both defending and attacking, see benefit from having his height. I do think the way forward is clearly Livramento and, tbh, I’d be amazed if Howe doesn’t think that also but I do think it needed a game like today for the trigger to be pulled. Burn will know he was shocking and can’t complain if Tino is in against Forest

Aye referee must have been blowing out his arse

Very surprised we didn’t go on to win that after we equalised tbh.

Let’s hope this never happens again. My heart can’t handle it

That has to be the end of Burn as LB. It’s a miracle we got 18 months out of him there but the experiment is over

Aye, get Burn off. He’s getting destroyed by this kid

Burn is definitely struggling like and they’re restricting him to about 5 yards of space in the corner flag when he has it deep. I’d be tempted to swap Murphy and Miggy tbh. And then at least Almiron can offer something other than fruitless running backward

Also, I’ll be amazed if Barnes or Wilson can do any more than about 15 minutes so I’d adjust your expectations now

It’s far too easy to pass through our press these days. Especially when they have Barkley transformed into Bellingham when he’s playing us

Some of our passing has been woeful here, like. So many slack and loose ones. Easy ones at that

Every time with that cunt.

Almost like having a massive points deduction is enough to give you a short blast of determination to get results or something

Expected more from Richarlison scoring against Everton. How dare he rein in his tendencies to be a total cunt

If we’re going off usual Mackem stats, that puts the real attendance at around 78 people

Actual children

Outstanding in Arrested Development too.

What I will say is that, when they do have a bad result, they seem to bounce back well enough. Whether or not that’s down to Ten Hag or not is a question but I wish they’d just bomb out and lose 4/5 off the belt so some proper questions get asked

You don’t get opportunities like that unless Mammy and Daddy know someone or are someone. Singer went to some 43k private school too. I think we have solved our conundrum

That’s never obscene moments of individual quality saving a mediocre team, is it? How does this keep happening?

Tindall taking the press conference as Howe is unwell. Brace for an absolute whirlwind of piss taking

Shove the whole fist up there if you’d like

Nobody gets a fucking thing at Anfield at the best of times so expecting it during Klopp’s “farewell tour” is madness

Having this Man City team up against Burnley is tantamount to cruelty. Sounds like it’s played behind closed doors as well. That famous atmosphere

Changed the thread title to something more respectful now that’s he fucking class

Been listening to Bill Ryder-Jones’ latest album a lot in the last week. Essential sad bastard music
