Firmino looked like he might not have been match fit so he can be excused but Mane and Salah should be doing a lot better with the chances that they're getting. If anyone deserves to be sat on the bench is one of those two.
The mf has been doing fine and, ironically again, I think we might have the best defence in the league and thank god for that otherwise we would have been no where near the top of the league.
I don't think the MF is doing fine, our MF lacks creativity and goals, out of a team of 11 players you need more than 3 attackers, today we lacked (dare I say it) someone like a Coutinho or Fekir who can see a pass and deliver it, the amount of opportunities we blew today because someone overhit, underhit or misplaced an otherwise straightforward pass was ridiculous.
The one good thing is these days even when we aren't playing particularly well we stay in games because (Leicester aside) we no longer gift the opposition cheap goals, ironically today it was Spurs who gifted us a couple of freebee's, for the past 4 or 5 years it's been us filling the comedy highlight reels.
I was one of the people who often argued for the likes of Simon and Loris to be given another chance but seeing the difference Alisson has already made its amazing it took us so long to spend big on a keeper.
