Head expected this even if the heart didn't want it to be this way. Decent periods of play but we don't have the players to beat uninspiring opposition and ran out of steam again. We know how RH has improved the team and we know how the board need to prioritise improvements in the team.

Nice of klopp to bring lovren on again. Real class. Looking at the vast majority of Scouse fans on other message they are their usual magnanimous selves as usual. Or not. Maybe I just don't their majestic wit.

A rare off day for Bednarek who looked bad in all 3 goal situations, unfortunately. He is still very young, and I fully forgive him of course, and he will learn from it.
Only Højbjerg had a good game really, in my opinion. Liverpool were beatable today but we didn´t take our chance to beat them.
Unlucky that an off side was overlooked in the actions leading to their equalizer.

Still - a decent effort against a good side, I guess, and everybody tried I´m sure, though it didn´t always look like it.

Own worst enemies again.
Good goal, poor finishing should have put us 2 up.
Offside equaliser - crap officials
Too much needless giving the ball away and panic
Long did well to last an hour after injury, but total change of shape and tactics once he was binned.
They score from our corner - same old this season. Had to be Salah
Sims messed around with it on the edge of their box, when it fell to JWP, his shot got block and the fast counter was on !! Why commit so many at 1-1 for a corner FFS ?
That was game over but at least we tried to be more positive with some subs.
60 yard ball and Beds didn't even attempt to head it, then got outskilled on the deck and JWP failed to track back, leaving them with a tap in.

Expected to lose in reality, but the nature of the defeat left a bitter taste in the mouth, with no doubt a full on media w@nkfest to follow.
DM was quite complimentary whilst driving home listening to Solemt, however some utter bell piece phoned in to TalkSport and said that they have won it already and what with Carragher, is it any wonder they are hater as a ream

Ward Prowse may not have realised that he was in the starting team line-up last night as he seemed to be quite content with spectating although somebody should remind him that it is a public order offence to enter the field of play while a match is in progress to get a better view.

Frustrating. We matched them for most of the game. PEH was immense. Shane Long almost seemed dumbstruck when the chance fell to him! Good to see some attacking substitutions but our late game management sucks. This was a free hit, just need those 2 wins and based on how we playefwe should be okay. COYR!

I'm not quite as glum as the majority here. The big frustration was that Liverpool were beatable last night - or at least 'drawable'. Having said that, although our usual failings cost us, we looked a decent side for long periods. The linesman's error was costly, 1-0 at half time was needed. Also why commit at the corner when it is 1-1? Taking it into the last few mins level would have meant we got chances on the break anyway, they were desparate, not us. Still, a lot better than this would have been a few months ago.

Most players played well but what has happened to JWP? In the last two games he has gone back to his old ways of being just a passenger. He should of been replaced at half time by Armstrong. We played well until Shane Long went off then we lost our threat.

Don't get the comments moaning about JWP, he created the most chances on the team and in the game with 4 ( Redmond 0 ) and was playing as a forward, but result as expected

Messy

Just my opinion, but JWP was poor last night - by his recent standards

I appreciate he was playing more defensively due to the threat from Mane, but with a back 5, there should have been enough cover defensively.

When he did get forward he had plenty of chances to cross but usually passed it back. Sure he created a few chances from corners or dead balls, but he was always going to, as he took every corner and free kick where there was an opportunity to deliver a ball into the box.

What was frustrating was the fact that he ruined a promising attack by being given off side (a basic error from him), not once, but TWICE !!

Then there as his blocked shot that led to the 2nd goal and he didn't track back his man Henderson - allowing him an easy tap in for their 3rd.

For an England International, he had a poor game.

OK so Redmond didn't create any chances, but looked a far more dangerous player, was more of a goal threat and had a far better game.

Hopefully JWP will be back to his best for Wolves next week and help us to those 2 more wins we possibly need.

Oh and I thought Vestergaard had a really great match last night. Looked really solid.
