Hiya, and welcome to The Redmen TV. Liverpool lose against Fernebache in the Champions League in a game that is just sheer madness from Liverpool, to be perfectly honest. It's around 45 to 50 minutes of that game. We're at Deishan Side. The rest of it. It's absolutely horrendous from a defensive point of view. I don't quite know how scoring I think a goal. is Liverpool's biggest downfall. However, we scored two goals and they were our biggest downfalls because whatever happens after those goals, I couldn't quite tell you because it was just all Fernebache.

And the way in which we concede goals, the ease at which we concede goals is madness. Absolutely madness. We started the game quite well. Rio, our best player on the pitch, closely followed by Trey, which, look, two wonderful players. But at their age, they shouldn't be the ones who were the best players on the football pitch for Liverpool in the Champions League game. Oh, way to Fernebache. But they absolutely were. And Liverpool started well. We started with the ball high up the pitch, but we were rushing it a bit too much. We then calmed down, took full control of the game, and we score. And we had a couple of opportunities, a couple of moments, no clear-cut ones really.

But we score from a ball coming on the edge of the box, from Rio, who does really good on the left-hand side, who literally was on out ball. We can talk about the other two up top, and Dom in the 10 in a minute. But Rio does really good, gets a shot blocked, and it comes out to Trey. He hits it first time on the volley, I think. In fact, Virgil wins it at the back post, it comes to Trey, and he hits it on the volley. Does really, really well to get over the ball and keep it on target, takes a deflection past Ederson, and he deserves that. First of all, let's congratulate him. He shouldn't have been on the losing side tonight because he was brilliant for Liverpool. He should probably have a look around him to the other players who played, but he thoroughly deserved that goal for his recent performances. And for me, I think there is a conversation to be had right now that Maka and Trey are the midfield pivot, they are the midfield too. And if Ryan Gravenbeek or Sobbo want Trey's shirt, they are going to have to start doing better than him. Because right now, for me, Trey has to start these games of football alongside McAllister because the performances he is putting in are just miles better than both Grav and Sobbo. Anyway, we take the lead and it is somehow the worst thing that you can possibly do because from there, instantly from kick-off, they hit the bar, they have a goal which is just so easily preventable and Jacque, probably his worst game for Liverpool. And look, I praise him so much, but I am going to slightly criticise him today. And look, comes with being young, you learn, all of these moments are all about experience and obviously developing and being better. But if you're in a wall and you're turning your back to a football, first of all, why are you the footballer? Why are you turning your back to a football if you're the footballer? Secondly, what is the point in being in the wall if you're gonna turn your back? Because that's the worst thing you can do. Just let it hit you, mate. Just jump and let it hit you. It might not hit you in a place that you really wanna be hit, but let it hit you. If you turn, that's worse than having no wall because it can deflect, it can wrong foot the goalkeeper and that's exactly what happens. And yeah, that one, easily avoidable, you literally just don't turn you back on the football and Sabo next to him also does that. He's just not the worst at it in this instance. And they go back on terms and then for the remainder of the first half, it's Fernebache. Lukaku puts one in the box, he really should get on the end of it, but it was a one way traffic after that. Liverpool completely lost themselves, completely lost the way of the game. And we were the ones who were glad for half time, half time comes and you're happy that Liverpool are on terms level and going into the half time and hopefully change things about. And it's so strange how basically a repeat of the first half happens in the second half. Liverpool start well. I don't think they had loads of attacking quality and I'll get on to that now. Bradley Barcola is a number nine, didn't work at all. You couldn't see him. The only time Bradley Barcola did anything in that game of football was when he cropped up on the left hand side in that second half and takes a shot near post that Edison has to save. But aside from that, Bradley Barcola did nothing in this game of football. And Victor Munoz really didn't do much either, to be honest. I think we struggled to get both of them into the game.
