This is boring. Needs a goal quick. Preferably for Liverpool as Man Utd would have to start playing.

Great save that. Pretty sure Coutinho would have tucked it away if he'd been given the rebound though.

Lukaku is a naughty boy. Hope he gets banned.

I wasn't talking about the non-incident with Lovren (the fanny) but the foul he'd made 5-10 minutes before.

Did Lukaku actually touch Lovren?

That tackle wasn't ban worthy. It was a yellow card.

So far I suspect this is pretty much what Mourinho wanted. I think we have to massively improve in the second half though.

He may have brushed him but no there was absolutely nothing worthy of that reaction from Lovren.

Kicked him in head, not sure if it was meant.

Banned for what? It wasn't even intentional. Lovren then decided to roll around 20 times.

Dull first half as expected. Lukaku is clearly getting frustrated being pretty isolated and needs to be careful. Reminds me of when Rooney would be sat on his own up top with no assistance and doing dumb fouls.

He easily could have avoided it. Lovren did make a meal of it to be fair.

Lukaku should have been booked for the first one. Lovren is a banana split for his playacting.
We need more composure in our passing and our delivery st the corners and two dangerous free kicks has not tested Pool enough. Liverpool looked decent in their little purple patch - Firminho, Salah and linking well.
Should really be 1-1 but for a great save and poor follow up and a better finish from Lukaku.

Kicked him in head :lol: :lol: :lol:

His foot brushed against Lovren as he stumbled over him and Lovren successfully completed 27 spins on the floor

It was about as intentional as Mings on Zlatan, although obviously that one looked a lot more painful. :lol:

Someone obviously kicked you in the head.
