Liverpool bounce back with 3-0 win at Huddersfield
But since that victory, Liverpool have lost to the two worst teams in the EPL.
When Sadio Mane slid the ball through for Roberto Firmino he looked to have only one idea in mind.
Referee Craig Pawson denied West Brom a third goal after ruling out Craig Dawson’s effort by using VAR to determine that Gareth Barry was offside.
Jurgen Klopp’s men were then awarded a penalty in the 76th minute when Can was bundled down in the area.
That prompted furious protests by the visitors, with Barry booked for dissent, only for Firmino’s spot-kick to hit the crossbar.
Its introduction and application has been the centre of much debate following Saturday’s FA Cup fourth round tie between Liverpool and West Brom.
Huddersfield have not been in the relegation zone all season, but sit just two points above the bottom three after a six-match run without a Premier League win.
Wagner said: “We have seen West Brom beat Liverpool in a comfortable way, to be honest”.
“What I do know now, after almost two and a half years in this job, I can say for sure it was one of my best work decisions I made in my life”. “Two games ago we’d all been crowing about them saying how great everything has been, but a week in football is a long time”.
Controversial former Newcastle and Manchester City star Joey Barton has launched a verbal rant against Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.
“What I heard was that the actual extra-time in the first half should have been 10 minutes”.
Klopp isn’t exactly spoiled for choice in midfield and Can’s fifth goal of the season was a timely reminder of how important he could be. Liverpool are shaky in defence at the best of times, it’s unlikely that their supporters will be filled with joy at the news that Van Dijk is going to be rotated.
Purslow feels a Champions League quest and top-four push in the Premier League has now been compromised, with those at the Anfield helm accused of prioritising money over on-field success.
“I’m gutted. We were almost there”, Newport manager Mike Flynn told the BBC.
“I think if you compare the differences Burnley has between those of Huddersfield it is maybe like between us and Burnley”.
Despite the addition of the Dutchman, the frailties proved to still be present during their defeats.
“It was despicable”, said Moyes.
‘That usually happens unless you have a lot of luck.
