lots of long balls from Klopp's Liverpool so far.

Sturridge tries to cut back in the box and gets taken out. Nothing given.

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

LUCAS JUST SCORED! YES!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm glad he got one before leaving (assuming he does in the next eight months).

2316 - Lucas scored his first goal for Liverpool since September 16 2010 v Steaua Bucharest in the Europa League, 2316 days ago. Rarity.

I see what you did there

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Plymouth kind of ran the show after the goal. Trent AA is the only reason it isn't 1-1.

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Plymouth hit the post. Tick clock tick.

 

[deacvision7]

sweet penalty, origi

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Not great. He looked that way three times then hit it there with zero pace. Ugh.

 

[timdunkandthefunk]

Liverpool move on but Biff will always have the replay to tell his grandkids about.

Is it worth watching later for the kids, or should I just skip this one?

Probably skip. Maybe watch after Wilson came on, there were more flourishes from the kids from that point on.

Word. Watched the second half before the Wake game last night. It was alright, easier to focus on those secondary positives when one gets the result, so good to see Coutinho get minutes, Gomez get minutes, and the youth, even though it was a pretty ugly game. Sturridge and Origi need to hit form pretty quickly, but it was a tough match for those two not getting a ton of service. I was interested to see that it was Woodburn dropping deeper than Coutinho for the most part. All the kids seemed mature and calm and patient, although I would have liked a little more aggression and initiative in the final third. Survive and advance.

Good article on how some (specifically City's in this case) club staffing/backroom makeup changes can affect acclimation to new surroundings and how that might play out in results.

Can you name every player to score 20 or more goals in a single Premier League season?


Score 56/64


Some of the ones I missed cost me a couple spots as they did it in multiple seasons. Brain fart. OOPS.

One of the guys on the list I forgot ever existed.


A fun way to waste 5 minutes. http://www.squawka.com/news/can-you...oals-in-a-single-premier-league-season/882099

Daniel Sturridge radar for 16/17. Still decent #numbers, although he has definitely lost some explosiveness. I'm not sure this iteration of Liverpool is the right fit anymore, although I do love DStudge...

 

[deacvision7]

studge just doesnt pass near the 18, eh?

 

[El Chupacabra]

Nope. He gets shots off, which is what elite goalscorers do.

 

[deacvision7]

He isn't an elite goal scorer though...
