KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Player Ratings Lfc v Sunderland

Mignolet 4 - sick to death of his nervous displays, simple save for a premiership goalkeeper to make, cost us the win. Pathetic
Clyne 5 - played his part in helping us break sunderland down but in the end poor game because we conceded 2, he's not even picking anyone up when defoe picks up the ball, not even picking up the runner, we gifted them the goal
Sakho 5.5 - I made the point about sakho unable to do much when a player is close to him, he can't block the shot because he's too lanky, when defoe turned and managed to get a clear shot into the corner of the net, it reminded me of the goal which was backheeled right through sakho at norwich. Moral of the story sakho is [oops] at marking players, he's not technical enough, even if he thinks he is. His passing was good as always, he can pick a pass from the defensive line, but I'm getting fed up of talking about Sakho's involvement in very avoidable goals.
Lovren DNF
Toure 6 - positioning at the back was spot on, even if he didn't have much to do, very weak didn't do enough for the build up to the equalizer.
Moreno 6.25 - always made himself available, tried to stretch sunderland as much as possible.
Henderson 6 - found it hard to break down his old club, 2 or 3 passes out to moreno didn't find their target. It think it's fair to say it's not his best game even if he did try hard.
Can 7 - very good from general Can
Allen 6.5 - think he too did well very in dealing with a sunderland setup to frustrate
Lallana 6 - I don't even want to give him 6, I didn't like his display one bit, should of played a simple pass to kill the game, when in front of goal, he too can take blame for 2 points dropped. He may be a useful squad player, but I don't think he has a future at liverpool.
Milner 7 - Sunderland were poor opposition, Milner found it easy, even though this is back to back good games Milner has had.
Firmino 8 - Great strike in the first half. not much to say really other than roll on the summer, because liverpool are very stoppable, as we were the last 3 matches without a goal, we have to face up to that.

Ibe he has ability, but he's a squad player at the moment.
Lucas rubbish

Team score: 6.9 (I know this is not an average of players individual ratings but we were very good until 10 minutes from the end.)

Mignolet-0 Everything that is a basic requirement for a goalkeeper to do he just fails at

Moreno-0 Reminded me of the penalty he gave away against Norwich. Lunges in first time, gets away with it. Lunges in the second time, refs had enough and gives a freekick. Utterly brainless defending.

These two really fukking me off!

How can mignolet get anything more than 0.

His job is to save shots.

He hasn't saved a shot therefore he gets 0


This isn't the first time he's done this. He used to be a great shot stopper. Now he's just sh1t

Nice summary and very accurate scoring. I'd go along with all of that.

Just to highlight Ibe because he is infuriating this season. Very selfish player, has ability, finds himself in great positions but more often than not blasts it looking for glory!

When does he ever play the intelligent ball or pass?

Someone needs a word with the lad and quick.

Why aren't Liverpool allowed to own a dog?

we struggle to hold onto a lead.

The number of goals we've conceded late at anfield this season is one of the worst now. Only 2 other teams (CRYP and Chelsea) have conceded the same or more goals in the final 81-90 minutes at home this season, 5 goals all so far this season (25 matches).

Let me re-type that, because it's wrong:

The number of goals we've conceded late at anfield this season is one of the worst now. Only 2 other teams (Villa and Norwich) have conceded the same or more goals in the final 81-90 minutes at home this season, 9 goals all so far this season (25 matches). - This is right sorry

i hate this info just like your name

Shambles, as usual. Even the best teams have 3 or 4 'average' players that get regular football. Our problem is the our whole squad is 'average' (hence our league position). I wouldn't lose sleep over any one of our players deciding to leave in the summer. To a man, they are all very easily replaceable. We just need to Klopp to be better at finding players than Rodgers was...because at the moment, his coaching hasn't helped us one little bit. If anything we are worse.

The first one is a home stat, the second in an overall stat, so home and away goals conceded in the last 10 minutes plus
