Liverpool were so 'un-Liverpool' like in attack, and so 'Liverpool' in their defence as they slumped to defeat at Old Trafford. The second half was a better performance and the ref was a nutcase, but that does not take away a shambolic defensive performance in first half.

Job done, professional work, blah blah blah. That was a little boring, wasn't it?
Liverpool (5) 0-0 (0) Porto. Onto Old Trafford and into the quarter-finals.
Another clean sheet for Big Loris
Loris Karius (7):Â Keeps clean sheets, looks cool. And now he's done the simple stuff in a simple manner! Lively off his line in the first...
It was a tough opening half to the game as Newcastle defended in an organized manner, but once Salah put Liverpool ahead, there was always going to be only one winner.
This is how the Reds fared.
Loris Karius (8) -Â Was a spectator for most of the match, but when called upon, made a world-class save...
THE REDS. THE ABSOLUTE REDS.
These Reds, our Reds, your Reds, my Reds.
What a night. Liverpool return to the Champions League knockout stages after 9 years with the style and swagger of a side who had won the whole thing for nine straight years.
Breaking records, breaking Portuguese hearts and breaking the net, it was a...
Struggling to wrap my head around that one, in the aftermath.
How much context will the draw have in our season? Probably not that much. Who gains momentum from this one, probably neither. Both teams will feel they should have won.
John Moss won't be getting a jokey referee rating from me because there aren't enough...
A win, something we can all breathe a sigh of relief at.
A turbulent couple of weeks for Liverpool with transfers, or lack thereof, and some disappointing results, but tonight we can all just smile. Save the transfer rage for Wednesday the 31st and Jim White's yellow ties.
Can, Firmino and Salah were on the scoresheet...
Typical Liverpool eh? Beat the Premier League leaders one week, lose to the league's bottom the next. It was a disjointed Reds side up against a spirited Swansea outfit, who displayed tremendous team-spirit and character to come out with a 1-0 win that ensured Liverpool couldn't extend their advantage over Spurs to more than...
Trying to compile my thoughts rationally and not give everyone a 10/10 will be difficult, but I'll do my best.
Seriously though, wow! Manchester City are one hell of a football team, but Liverpool aren't too bad either. Of course, The Reds do their thing and make it hard for themselves after being 4-1 up,...
Some things are just meant to be, such as Everton not winning at Anfield. What looked to be heading towards another frustrating Anfield derby this season turned into a game that put a 75 million pound smile on every Red's face. Virgil van Dijk got the winner at the Kop end on his debut...
YESSSSSSSS! A 2-1 victory against Leicester City on December 30th isn't one that's going to go down in the record books, but at this moment in time, it feels like a big one.
The Reds went behind to Jamie Vardy's goal but came back strongly in the second-half. That man Mohamed Salah provided a beautiful...
