I had that reaction to Lallana and Lovren... but I guess this is the right match to rotate and rest players...

I think some rotation is necessary. Robbo can't play every single game. We're likely to have the ball a lot this match and I'm sure the set up won't depend upon Moreno staying back...

It should only get better, the more Fabinho integrates into the starting 11..

Safe to say he's out of his slump... Great pressure too

Want another look at the pen shout... Initial reaction was it would have been a soft one, but thought it was close enough to one to not warrant the massive wave off from the ref

I disagree... dude had his arms wrapped around Salah in a bear-hug.

If you aren't going to call it, them make it very clear you aren't going to call it, which is what he did.

I was fine with no call. Salah went down too easy.

So I guess if Salah “goes down too easily”, then dude wrapping both his arms from back to front and firmly holding onto Salah in the box isn’t a foul?

Or can defenders hold forwards now free and clear?

Wasn’t a penalty

Looked to me like the jostling between the two was pretty even. Salah was leaning against the defender just as much as the defender was pushing. Once Salah pulled the ball back he didn’t really make much of an effort to pivot and get to the ball. He just went to ground immediately.

Firmino hasn't been at his best today by far... But I think overall our attacking play has looked more cohesive today, just need a little more in and around the box

Passing still not the most crisp anytime we really get forward

Yeah our final 3rd touch is still lacking a bit of fluency, but they are defending deep and thick at the back
