@DavidGilbert43 Horrible. Now. Move on #lufc

@Awilco93 Can we start playing Rodrigo up front now please. #LUFC

@Weysider You know what, we got thrashed. But I’d still rather watch this than aim for a 0-0 and try and sneak a winner.

@tomhilton89 Let’s just hope it brings them back down to earth. Everyone was off it, some more than others, the one positive I’m trying to take away is that they kept trying. 3 points against Burnley, yeh? #lufc

@aarons1308 We are 14th in the league with Burnley and West Brom to play next, we go again Leeds! #lufc

@DaveDuracell Its a strange old game. We lose by a big scoreline, still look great and terrible in equal measures at various times, yet we still sit in 14th and for now are comfortable ahead of relegation rivals. As always, onto the next one, we should still stay up if we keep this up #lufc

@ThisIsGaryKing I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again with #lufc - we’ll win some we don’t expect to and we’ll take some drubbings. The squad level and skill aren’t as good as most. We will be fine this season and we will build. Calm down.

@Neil_A_Brook Cheap possession turn over and wasting chances when we made them. Love each and everyone of these players but their quality only stretches so far, today was the most evident of that. #lufc
