Speaking to the Core Committee, Club Secretary - Anikendu Ghosh was optimistic about Liverpool's progress and rather focused on the remaining 8 games. The Core Committee comprising of Swarnendu, Chandranath, Mehboobar, Purnobrata, Sagnik and Krishnendu instead felt that there was a lack of fluidity in the game and instead had kind words for Lovren.

The lack of a Plan B was another misgiving of the supporters and complimented Mourinho on focussing on the weaker links of the Liverpool defence and felt that the game was lost by Liverpool due to their lack of cohesion between the midfield and attack.
