Klopp moaning? Say it ain’t so.....Klopp was moaning about not getting enough penalties.
Just so happens this one was against him.

Have you seen our next six fixtures....A 100% run to the end of the season will see us right, also a trip to the nearest brothel is in order I think![]()
Please god tell me it’s not any of the bottom sixHave you seen our next six fixtures....
And not getting home before midnight on a school night...There’s always a positive in every situation, in this case it is that fans did not waste money on a ticket to watch that steaming pile of poo masquerading as a football match.
I thought it was a simply splendid game of football.There’s always a positive in every situation, in this case it is that fans did not waste money on a ticket to watch that steaming pile of poo masquerading as a football match.
City, Leicester, Everton, Tottenham, Chelsea to name five of them.
Agreed, but I think quite a few players are having a big dip in form at the moment. There is a deep undercurrent of lack of confidence in certain players. TAA had a shocker again last night, Mane, Firminho and Salah aren't firing on any cylinders at the moment.Oh stop.
You've just watched the last 5 matches just like me. The team, fundamentally, is broken in the last third. Tiny little changes that amount to the absolute shite that we have witnessed.
Too many touches in and around the box allowing the broken defending team to regain their shape / position.
An unwillingness to take responsibility to attack space or move with the ball leading to one more (unnecessary) pass. Ditto the effect on the defending team.
No one is leading the team on the pitch and calling it out, in fact the leaders are the ones guilty of slowing the play in midfield. 5 seconds dwelling on the ball from Gini, Hendo and if I see one more scooped bastard ball to a munchkin surrounded by grocks.......
Our options are poor. AOC is wasted on the right and has played his best in central midfield for us but there's no way he is winkling out Thiago, but that's where the drive has to come.from. Drive at a static defence and force them to play. Three things can happen. We lose the ball, we get fouled, we score. By any metric the idea that we go at a team is better by a factor of 2-1 when in possession.
The full backs aren't functioning well. That's down to teams playing better and a fairly catastrophic loss of form / confidence by TAA. Robertson played really well against Utd, but unless BOTH play reasonably well it doesn't really make a difference as you can adjust your team to match the threat flank you face.
It comes down to this. Whilst Fabinho plays at CB we miss him in the midfield, especially those fizzed vertical.balls to feet that break lines. Whilst he's our sides best CB we're knackered. This starts and finishes with a lack of CB cover and if Klopp doesn't trust who he can turn to then there are no "solutions in the squad". Had Fabinho been in midfield last night then we'd have seen a faster attacking display.
At the moment we look like Wenger's "one more pass" Arsenal, with the results to match.
0 points, deservedly so, half a season to get it right. We'd BETTER be moving on!

Haha, I didn't get as far as your post FF! It was more those vying for top red status talking about the next match like the last 5 with no change hadn't happened!Actually, we said the same thing.
It's an improvised defence and the fallout from that improvisation is making itself felt all over the pitch.
The simple truth is that Liverpool is, de facto, advancing the proposition that it is possible to complete at the highest level in the Premiership without recognised central defenders and our league position now reflects that.

There is something definitely afoot in the dressing room, und Herr Klopp needs to get it sorted ASAP otherwise we'll be lucky to finish mid table on current form.
The absence of VVD and Gomez are not excuses for the front three not putting the ball in the back of the net.
We needed a team of James Milners. Men of steel, to put the fear of God up them....Totally agree with @MrShanklysboots
Too much dithering and square / back passes.
We also don't have an option up front, all our players are comparatively small, so we come up against a defence full of 6'3" players and we're stuffed for high balls. When was the last time we got a knock-down from a cross in the box?
We need e.g. a Jimmy Case who will hit a few cannonballs from outside the box.
