Thought we were poor yesterday and still managed a draw away to a very strong Brighton side. Still loads more to come from this team. Onwards and upwards.

Redcork - On the face of it, a draw away to Brighton isn’t a bad result in isolation, but I don’t believe it’s a good result either.
1. We have now twice failed to capitalize on City losing and though the refereeing performances were atrocious in both games, we haven’t taken advantage.
2. We started yet another game poorly - it’s dreadful that the coaches/ players keep letting this happen.
3. Brighton are a much-admired team but it’s wise to remember they have been thrashed by fairly simple tactics three times in about 10 competitive matches going back to Everton last season.
Not a bad result, but I believe this Liverpool team could do better.

I thought we messed it up. Brighton were there for the taking yesterday. When we pressed and speeded up our play they couldn’t cope but we dropped off them. Klopp/ pep cocked this one up playing Mac as a DM it is not working and everyone can see it. We have Endo sat on the bench watching Mac constantly making mistakes. I feel so sorry for the lad as he’s done nothing wrong. Every game I’ve seen him play for us he’s been good.

I think you do De Zerbi a disservice.
There's a touch of the Klopp about him in his ability to take on the favourites and motivate his players.
Brighton have a good record and usually give a good account of themselves in such games.

Brighton's game plan was not allowing us to play out. They had 3 players typically standing about 10 yards of Macallister. They swarmed him and put him under tons of pressure. Virgil's pass for the goal wasn't great and Alison I think should have done better. Macca not at fault for me. He looks way better turning up the pitch with the ball like he did in the second half.

If we're going to persist w the same mids I'd like to see Dom play 6. He played there when Macca went off against Bournemouth and played a blinder. Has pace that Macca woefully lacks to cover the ground and much better under pressure.

Agree with Redcork here, a point away at Brighton is a good result in the circumstances, they're a quality side and under appreciated by many. We came away with a point from a team that will take plenty of points off every team in the top half this season, home and away.

We should be better defensively though and we should be good enough to close a game like that out but all in all, no complaints from me. We need to remember where we were last season and where we are this season, big transition but still doing very well.

RobbosPress and trust me had Joao Pedro scored that final chance, there would be absolute mayhem. So all things being equal, a point was all we really could have hoped for judging by the way we actually played.
