Kane has achieved world class status. Fans can argue about it all they want, but defenders up against him are terrified before they even step on the pitch. It showed vs Lovren, Matip has carried it on - even Varane and Ramos the other night. That's what world class means, and he's there.
I mean, it's like a recurring joke isn't it? There are teams in the bottom half of the table who defend better than Liverpool.
All time Premier League attendance record today. They're going to tell their grandkids about this Dejan Lovren performance.
whats most impressed me today isn't the goals, its how quiet Coutinho has been errk... until just now. Lloris!
De Gea and Lloris are miles and away the best goalkeepers in the world. I don't watch enough of Neuer to class him, but the likes of Ter Stegen, Navas, Courtois? Nah, the gap from those top 2 is massive.
I would qualify that as positioning and shot stopping. Lloris is average when it comes to passing/distribution.
I would say Neuer is the best in the world. His instincts are what set him apart from all the others. Ter Stegen is way overrated based on the club he plays for. I'd argue that Oblak and Buffon, even at his age, are better than him.
probly a mistake to leave winks on the last 20 minutes or so he's made a number of mistakes. but up before that he and alli had been fantastic in midfield. probly tired from having played RM earlier in the week as well as this full match
