This squad is the stuff of nightmares to actually watch as a supporter, how it goes from attacking brilliance to whatever this was?
Not to mention embarrassing beyond belief when having to face any supporters in the league.
Just trying to put my finger on why we slip up against these so called lesser teams. I mean it's not even like these teams are putting 10 men behind the ball and nicking a goal from a set piece or something and then defending for their lives under a constant attack from us where you can we were just unlucky. The bottom team came to Anfield today and put 3 past us. We let in 4 against Bournemouth after being 3-1 up with 15mins left. I mean there has to be a fix to this as these kind of results have nothing to do with luck. Is it the mental approach and application? Maybe thinking we can just turn up and roll teams over?
I know these weird results can and do happen but we have an uncanny knack of these happening to us a few too many times in a season. Makes it even worse, because it's not like it's due to poor form. We can go beat a direct rival and then follow it up with a result like today.
I mean even last season, lost 2-0 to struggling Newcastle team, lost 3-0 to Watford, lost 3-1 to Swansea, 2-1 to Crystal palace, lost 3-2 to Southampton after being 2-0 up at half time. And at the same time we go to Chelsea and win 3-1, go to Man City and win 4-1 and beat them at home 3-0, hammer Everton 4-0. Just a real jekyll and hyde side to us and we need to fix it, because you will struggle to be consistently successful with so much inconsistency.
Yes we have been much better this year, but these freakish results are still coming along too frequently for my liking and imo it's not down to just being unlucky
