As soon as we went 5-0 up Lovren switched his little brain off and started thinking of other things. He then lighted a cigar and just chilled for a bit.
The result: Horrible decisions, and then the usual backlash with a total loss of confidence. Not only him but the whole defence and midfield. Meanwhile old Lovren must have re laced his boots on the wrong feet, because for the remainder of the game he was plain awful!
We just need to realise he can't be relied upon. 90 minutes is too much for him. 60-70 minutes or so is apparently the most he can produce!
On the other hand he just needed a minute or so against WBrom to f*ck that game up!
Horrible player! Get rid!
Not exactly. When Salah was substituted Roma's whole teamed moved 25m ahead and there was more pressure on our defenders. Lovren just panics in dangerous situation. We would have won by 7 if Salah was still on.
I think your comments are correct and perfectly feasible.
You could almost hear the sigh of relief, and see it in the Roma's players faces when he went off.
They're all terrified of him and his astonishing brilliance that's take us all by suprise this season
and at 5-0 down, Roma had nothing to lose, they may as well lose 7-0, so they went for it and tried to get a goal, which they did, then our usual doubts crept in and we lost shape and didn't try and close the game down, we should have played the last 20 mins like we played the second half at home to City at 3-0.
I understand why Salah went off, at 5-0 if he would have got injured we'd all be saying why didn't Klopp take him off as the game was over, but taking Salah off took away allot of our threat, so Roma could press on without worrying about Salah on the break.
I don't know why Woodburn wasn't on the bench? bringing Ings on wasn't offering a threat to Roma, he will work hard but we need pace upfront, so Woodburn would have been better in that situation, stretching Roma and ready to run with the ball.
Hopefully loaning players like Grujic, Kent, Ojo & Wilson will mean they are ready for the squad next year, as it has left us weaker this season now we have so many injuries.
