    He's been poor, today he was shocking. But can't single him out - the whole team bar Karius should be ashamed

    Well that went well. Thank Karius for keeping us in the tie.

    Klopp needs to stop shoe horning some players. Moving Lallana upfront to accommodate Can needs to end with this game. He cannot afford to play this way against United as they have better players to hurt us

    Poor game. But I hope the team didn't pour too much into this **** waste of time and that klopp does not throw it all at the 2nd leg. There are trophies and then there is the league cup and we have a team just about strong enough to maintain a decent challenge in one competition, which would be the prem

    Was always going to be tough with the teams spine (Matip, Hendo, Coutinho, Mane) missing!

    I admire your loyalty. I will wager now that Soton will score more goals at Anfield than we will. They have a proper defence, for starters.

    Not a bad result, given it was such a horrible performance.
    Hope we're saving it up for Sunday.

    Safe to say we're having our blip, that was ****ing dogshit and we haven't been good enough to deserve victories in a good few weeks.

    Need to snap out of it cos Utd will beat us 1-0 aswell with that type of turn out then the pressure is well and truly on.

    True - 10 mins after his introduction, he completed 3 dribbles. Only Firmino had completed more at the point.

    I usually refrain from praising the opposition and as poor as we were, Soton played brilliant. They won every battle.

    No Matip, no Mané, no Henderson and Coutinho on the bench. That same pile of sh!T will be put out

    Feel Southampton will regret not scoring a second. Liverpool only need one goal to be in the tie again despite that ****e tonight.

    Karius MOTM. Good saves and distributed well.

    Desperately flat in midfield. Can was awful, Wijnaldum too conservative, Lucas his usual self. No creativity and noone to set the tempo.

    Took until Coutinho came on for Lallana and Sturridge to get the ball in forward positions and even then it was poor.

    Clyne was awful tonight at both ends. Really slowed play up when he got it.

    Firmino barely had the ball in threatening areas... but had our two best (only?) chances and at least tried to press.

    Shows we're desperate for pace without Mane and still have no genuine ability in midfield. We played three "hard workers" there tonight.

    Defensively, that was a shambolic performance. Can and Gini offered nothing, Lucas was a doorman to the back 4. And the entire back line made mistakes. Clyne and Milner must be knackered so I can understand their tired performances.

    Hopefully but we need Henderson Matip and Coutinho fit and firing for that game otherwise I forsee another Can bashing coming up

    jeez that was depressing
    The word to sum up that performance - ponderous
    We suddenly seem slow ,we could cope withot 1 of Couts or Mane not both plus there is a worry that the team as a whole looks fatigued with little behind the first team squad of 15/ 16.
    Defence is still as bad as ever without protection.
    Ho Hum getting twitchy about Sunday
