Credit to willian and alonso
Both are good

Alonso was solid today
I thought his side will leak like highway but i was wrong

Top of the group!

And yes, head to head counted

With the performance of Mount...Barkley days in chelsea surely numbered.

Damn it's annoying to lose to this lot, but you know what the mickey mouse cup is a huge distraction anyway. If anything we need to analyse why we play so awful against utd under frank, it's like everyone turns into these slow thinking and slow moving zombies, such a far cry from our other performances against much, much, better teams.

Pulisic should've stayed on imo, pedro never should've come on, I struggle to recall anything useful he did for his cameo,other than giving away some really useless fouls.

Why was bats taken off again? If there was a game to try and get tammy and michy combining as a pair in the last few minutes, surely this was it. It's like making subs just for the sake of it, same as the pedro / pulisic one. Lamps will learn I guess. Hope we continue our winning steak in the league. A lot wrong with today's performance.

Exciting! I think we can sign new player in january. Hoping we can sell alonso and sign new left back. Pedro also need to replace. Giroud maybe will leave in January too

Ajax front three keep attacked his side, 3 from 4 Ajax goals came from his side

His direct error was 3rd goal we conceded, he and tomori forced Tadic to sideline and Tadic had nowhere to go, however Alonso tackled Tadic and fouled and gave away a free kick lead to Kepa own goal

Lampard sub him out before 2nd half start

First goal was indeed unstoppable, but never should've happened.

I'm not so sure about the second either, even with the lines he looked borderline off imo,especially his upper body / chest. With how those 'magic lines' can be drawn during VAR checks (similar to Sheffield's first goal yesterday which was somehow disallowed for half a boot length), he could easily be off. But of course no checks occurred and we'll never know, this is what bugs me.

Whenever VAR comes into play, all goals / offsides come under 200% more scrutiny, and refs are free to decide which teams are on the receiving end of such checks. If there was no sudden VAR check on azpi's potential equaliser vs pool, would it have been disallowed? Of course not, as the linesman didn't even flag for mount being 'marginally' off.

So who decides these checks? Do we need like what, more than 5 players in the ref's ear? The managers screaming at the assistants? Does the ref selectively decide what to check and what not? It's such a horrible mess with certain teams always getting them in their favour.

Aye. I didn't see anyone feeling bad for us last week when Firmino's armpit was deemed offside. But sure LiVARpool rocks on I guess.

congratz winning first epl title~

sure la, leading 8 points, can speak louder, walk also got wind

jorginho bad game. emerson awful. too casual after leading.

Emerson my god worst than Alonso. At least alonso have a sweet cross and can score freekicks. Alonso even have better acceleration and pace than this Emerson...

I honestly dont know whay some of u guys rated this emerson so highly compared to alonso. This Emerson cant really defend priperly as well
