Sunday’s defeat at Spurs hurts especially with all the hype in the media about this being Liverpool’s year to finally lift the Premier League trophy.
We played in the first half as we have all pre-season, sluggish, aimless and generally poor.
However, the second half saw a big improvement with a big step up in the standard of our game.
From being outplayed in the first 45 minutes, we took control of things thereafter, keeping possession, passing and moving well and making chances.
We were only denied a draw by a bad refereeing decision.
So while there is plenty of room for improvement, its not all doom and gloom here at Friends of Liverpool.
ITS JUST A SLOW START TO THE SEASON
