Football fans rage over 'terrible' TNT Sports coverage for Liverpool and Everton clash

But football fans on social media are far from happy with TNT Sports, with some users suffering issues with buffering and picture quality while streaming through Discovery+.

One supporter on X said: "TNT sports s***e already."

A second ranted: "Anyone else @tntsports stopping and starting, never had a problem when it was BT Sport, only since it was changed to TNT Sports.

"What is that old saying, if it ain’t broke don’t fix it. How apt."

A third said: "Why did you shut the BT sport app, the Discovery one is terrible, constantly buffering."

Another messaged the TNT Sports X account, saying: "Hey, @footballontnt @tntsports & @discoveryplus, am I going to have to put up with the football buffering every 10 seconds on the app?"

A fourth fan said: "Anyone know of any alternative channels to watch #LFC game. That isn't tnt sports? #LFCFamily"

And another user said: "This new @bt_uk and @tntsports app is s***e. I have BT Sport as a mobile add on with @EE as well as it being included with my internet and I still can’t watch the early kick-off."

The complaints continued to come. A sixth fan said: "It is terrible. Near on unwatchable."

And a seventh expressed their outrage by saying: "All was fine on BT this isn’t fit for purpose."

BT closed their BT Sport app on October 12. But the TNT Sports app and Discovery+ streaming quality has suffered in the time since.

The build-up to Liverpool's match with Everton has been cutting out frequently, sometimes displaying a blank screen.

Given how much football supporters pay to watch matches on TV, they have every right to vent their frustrations.

As for the match itself, Liverpool can join Tottenham and Arsenal on 20 points at the top of the Premier League table if they claim all three points.

Jurgen Klopp has put out a strong side, with Alisson Becker in goal.

Trent Alexander-Arnold, Ibrahima Konate, Virgil van Dijk and Konstantinos Tsimikas start in a back four.

In midfield, Dominik Szoboszlai, Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch all get the nod.

And, up top, Liverpool have gone with a front three of Mohamed Salah, Diogo Jota and Luis Diaz.

As for Everton, Sean Dyche has deployed a 4-4-1-1 formation as he looks to leave Anfield with all three points.

Jordan Pickford starts in goal, with Ashley Young, James Tarkowski, Jarrad Branthwaite and Vitaliy Mykolenko in front of him.

In midfield, Jack Harrison and Dwight McNeil start on the wings with Amadou Onana and James Garner in the middle of the park.

And Abdoulaye Doucoure slots in at No 10 with Dominic Calvert-Lewin playing further ahead.

Klopp, meanwhile, shed light on his decision to start all three of his summer signings in midfield.

"They are obviously three very good players who have shown up in the season," said the German.

"Everyone can see how important they are for us and will be.

"They are not new to each other any more. They like each other, you can see that off the pitch. It's not only about the midfield but it is one of the most important areas on the pitch.

"We have to win - I don't know how many second balls - but also set-pieces and all these kinds of things.

"Everton are in a good moment with a clear structure and will go for it. We will go for it too."
