He hasn't the first clue how to approach playing this Liverpool side

I never rate the players on the day of the game, but I doubt a night’s sleep will change my view that JJ was our MOTM. 
He wasn’t great, but only a couple of our players were even average. He was good. Shame we didn’t have Timmy on the other side.

Him and everyone else that has gone to Anfield over the past couple of years

Mostly 5s but 9 for Justin and a 3 for Albrighton.

 

This was an issue of tactics more than player performance and I hope Brendan has a bit more tactical nous than Scott Parker for our next PL game

[Hammo]

People are being kind to Fofana. He was  brilliant in his first few games but today the Liverpool forwards rinsed him more than his hairdresser.

7 for Kasper and JJ, 5 the rest.

Did you watch Kasper’s kicking?

I saw him stop a few goals, that's his main job surely?

He’s an outstanding shot stopper. His distribution is among the worst in the PL. They’re both fundamental parts of his job, surely @Webbo ?

You quoted me, you didn't need to @ me as well.

Fofana our 3rd best starter? Definite favoritism going on there. He was genuinely bad in the 2nd half whilst the majority of our midfield and forward players were merely anonymous with the exception of Albrighton who managed to be terrible at both ends of the pitch.

Fully expected to see him have an inflated rating.

 

People vote with previous games in mind. If a player has been struggling, a bad game will be magnified and a worse score given than deserves. If a player has been performing well, they're excused a blind eye.

 

Human nature I suppose but I don't know why more people can't be objective in their rating. I think Fofana has been nothing short of outstanding for us, but I'll call a spade a spade and give him my second worst rating tonight, beaten only by Albrighton.

But about that question I asked you...??!

[Sunbury Fox]

Marc has sadly had a stinker tonight but in his defence:

 

1. He was playing out of position;

2. He's only playing there because both Ric and Timmy are injured ie he's third choice in that position, probably 4th, considering that JJ would play there ahead of him if not required on the left.

3. He was up against arguably the best left sided combo in the world whilst playing out of position.

 

So let's cut him a little slack. Fine to say he had a poor game but very unfair to say, as some have, that they don't want him to play for us ever again, etc.

Kasper and JJ 6's

 

Fofana, Fuchs 4's

 

The rest 3's

 

[NaijaFox]

While Fofana didn't hit the heights of his previous games, he was not horrible (just human and 19)...

In fact, other than Justin, he was the best performer in that backline (albeit that's not really saying much).

It think with Fofana, when he goes for the ball he has every confidence that he will get it. He has every right to have that confidence because usually he does. This is probably a different level of opposition and he will have to get used to it because when he doesn’t manage get the ball it can leave us exposed. I’m sure he will adjust in time. Still very young.

He stopped it being a cricket score, that's more important to me.

Liverpool in our home fixture last year were insanely good, as good as I have ever seen any team ever. They would have beaten anyone that day and thrashed most of them.

[Gevans_97]

Agree with some of the previous comments re: Fofana. He was poor last night and lost his head, got skinned multiple times and committed himself a lot. Would have been at fault for at least one goal had Kasper not been on top form. He’s class and will recover, but a real eye opening for the lad. 

[Blue ROI]

Justin worthy of an 8. Might be disputed by many but for a rookie he did well and about our only threat to them for a lot of it.

Kasper a 7. Shocking distribution but some great saves.

 

The rest 5 or lower.
