    Yeah, with Origi he made a bit of noise about not starting. He's been given ample opportunities and he's been quite poor since his last goal.

    All our remaining games are winnable, but sometime we are toothless especially playing the so called lower teams.

    This is exactly what we have been moaning about for the last few weeks. You are right. Whatever it is we should have sorted it out by now. Some call it a Plan B. I cannot see as an attitude problem , not when Klopp is our manager. He wouldn't have let it happen so many times.

    The frustrating thing about the matches we have to play is that they are all winnable but we could drop points against all of them too. None of them we could say (Ive said bankers too many times in the past) this is guaranteed 3 points, because we are at home and it is a weak team. We even struggled against Burnley at home, but fortunately we got the 3 points <grr>

    Any team which is so far ahead in the top 6 mini league should be chasing the title. we should were it not for our inability to put these minnows away.

    In the past we used to beat West Ham home and away, last year they did us double. They are now becoming our bogey team.

    As a matter of interest, how many times have we won when we have conceded the first goal, home and away?

    I think we are second in taking more points from losing position.

    I would say that 90% of the games we have to play are all going to be piss easy..... If we can just get the opening goal.

    If we score in most of these games the narrow ultra defensive on the break mentality goes and we can then cut sides up.

    But we have to get the first goal... and to do that we cannot be seeing guys like clyne back passing or lallana not really getting involved etc. A lot of our best players need to show their bravery and ability much more to carry the day IMO.

    We don't need 10 men forward hoping for a break stuff, we need positivity and urgency from those who are forward and a solid screening game behind them.

    cue can in the opposition box half the game v everton, clyne back passing to matip most of the day. coutinho sitting on half way line afraid of a kick... etc etc.

    I'd chew yer arm off for 81 points.

    As i said.. if we get that opening goal....

    Every time i listen to results on radio/sky etc I just think.. oh chelsea/utd/city/ whoever have scored... game over. usually when these sides get a goal v small sides it really is a mountain to climb for a small side.

    I think LFC particularly need that first goal. We find it very difficult to break a massed defence. Once we score that first goal, we can see the team relax and the game opening up as they seek that equaliser.

    We concede the first goal, the opposition gets to defend even more with 11 players in the penalty area. That's where a Lukaku (or even Benteke <yikes> ) could prove useful.

    yup if refs would just give us that 1 goal head start things would be easy.

    Hence i fail to understand why we won't run at teams with pace and try win a few more pens. its not like it doesn't work for us :)

    And yeah if we concede one its game over usually.
