Swansea desperately need to get their passing philosophy back, we’ve been struggling since Laudrup left. I’d give Pepe Mel a chance, West Brom played some brilliant football under him.

On-loan Bayern Munich midfielder Renato Sanches is out on the Anfield turf going through a rigorous warm-up for Swansea.
Lols at that time he passed the ball to the advertising board thinking it was a team-mate.

This will end 1-1, mark my words. We always have a mistake in us. Poor performance so far.

Need to give McBurnie more service 2nd half, the boy has bags of ability but there’s no one to support him!!

It it not untypical of Liverpool. We know they are capable going forward and they work hard at the back to make as few chances as possible, but the quality is really up front.
They have scored a brilliant goal, but I feel there is more and they could have killed the game off and it gives teams hope they will make a mistake and will switch off and are not ruthless enough. But one goal should be enough to secure the three points.

Philippe Coutinho delightful goal separates the two sides at the break.
Liverpool 1-0 Swansea
This should should be the second.
Roberto Firmino does all the hard work then makes a mess of the finish.
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain pinches the ball in midfield and gets the Brazilian away.
He sends Federico Fernandez sliding into 2018 with a turn inside the box, then goes past Alfie Mawson, but shoots wide of goal.

A slight break in play as Liverpool midfielder Emre Can receives treatment for a knock.
The German is OK to make it to half time, which is two minutes away.

Mohamed Salah's arm was held down. If the referee saw that he would have given a penalty without a shadow of a doubt.

If Coutinho gets his move to Barcelona, who does Mr Ernesto Valverde drop from the current team ??
A Christmas Network Rail Worker, London.
Liverpool 1-0 Swansea
He has 15 already this season and Mohamed Salah is sniffing a 16th.
He turns inside of Alfie Mawson in the box, but then is blocked off by Federico Fernandez.
The ball reaches Roberto Firmino, who puts it back into the box, but Salah goes down.
The Reds look towards the referee, but Kevin is no Friend, waving away the appeals.
The Egyptian went down rather easily under the challenge of Tom Carroll there.

If Liverpool don't put a game to bed this season, you can't relax. It goes back to the game against Sevilla when they were 3-0 up and it has given teams hope that if Liverpool are not out of sight you have a chance.

The sublime Philippe Coutinho wriggling free again and looking for a second goal, but his strik from the left is blocked by Federico Fernandez.

matthew thornber: Liverpool are like a box of chocolates, the Brazilian one is the one everyone wants.
Nice, but I always want the caramel one.

Love how fans of other clubs desperately trying to sell Coutinho.

Oooh, the closest Swansea have come so far.
Home Alone baddie Oliver McBurnie does brilliantly to evade two defenders in the box.
His eyes light up as he sees the goal looming, but then his low shot is well blocked by Ragnar Klavan.

Dave Coombes: McBurnie looks like that one dude from that one show that looks familiar but you can never quite remember

We see Liverpool full-back Trent Alexander-Arnold foray forward for the first time.
His cross towards the front post is a dangerous one, but Swansea skipper Federico Fernandez defends it bravely, putting his head in where it hurts to get the ball away.

Neil Harris: RE Jay (17:56), if Coutinho plays well he's "playing for a move" if he played terribly then "his mind is already in Barca". The guy can't win.
Liverpool 1-0 Swansea
Watching this match but thinking about Eastenders.
Not going to make it home in time for it.

The speculation around poor Coutinho is somewhat degrading given his professional attitude to the club. Just enjoy the beauty of his sumptuous skills!!
