    Hang on Diego that's a bit harsh. It is factually correct but it was only just over 180+ minutes.

    Maybe we showed the way with the defending bit. The difference being we couldn't score on the break. Klopp obviously needs to change something or all teams will be doing this against Liverpool for the rest of the season.

    Lacklustre...when Spurs were drawing all them games a few months back, they were the same, all the gear but no idea.

    Unlucky boys.

    We definitely need a plan B. Our energy levels have dropped and coincided with Mane's absence. Our pressing will not work if teams just sit back and let us have the ball. Against the non top 6 sides we will have 75-80% possession and we need to be able to go through some double bus parking.

    Several simple things to do.


    1. Put lallana are rcm and leave him there. He played 80mins at lw today and did nothing good.

    2. Henderson is injured. He can't run back so stay ****ing back.

    3. Drop can. He's just ponderous.

    4. Put coutinho closer to goal, lw is always his best starting position.

    5. Firmino no 9, nowhere else. He can't play anywhere else any more than sturridge or origi.

    6. Buy a rw if we don't have one.. simples.

    I just think a shout out to taa is merited. Yes he got skinned twice stupidly chasing up but he was actually very decent for an 18 year old dropped in it.

    I don't watch much premiership stuff so haven't personally seen Liverpool play a lot this season. I have read quite a few bits and pieces though and it seems that Klopp likes to set up for a Charge of the Light Brigade style where it's all out attack for 90 minutes. The opposition earlier in the season seemed a bit caught up with that and joined in. Good stuff but they lost and Liverpool were doing well out of it. Now, fed up with losing the opposition doesn't want to play like that and the players are lost as to what to do about it. They seem to have been trained all week for all out stuff and that's all they know. If it doesn't work they seem fecked. I think Klopp doesn't get the parked bus attitude and it his him that needs to take a different approach to the training ground. As long as other managers see the parking as a means they are going to use it and they certainly won't change.

    Burnley did it to us in the second game of the season, so it isn't as though it's something that people have only just twigged.
    All season we've struggled to break down a resolute and efficient defence.
    Klopp has made vast improvements to the side and we're all fully behind him, but he does need to take a hard look at this. It's cost us a cup final, and already far too many points. He has to find a better solution than just banging our heads repeatedly against the same old wall.

    Not read through the thread yet... ****ing proud of my team, kinda emotional and celebrating. Watched at pub with pal who supports you lot too <whistle>

    Just thought I'd post a quick message, I was going to say unlucky, but you weren't really. Think we fully deserved it over the 2 legs.

    Crazy that theres only 6 games in all comps that you haven't scored this season and half of those are against us. Thought young Stephens, bar a couple dodgy moments was brilliant in his baptism of fire. We also got our tactics spot on.

    I trust you lot will be supporting us in final? <laugh>

    Hard feelings seem to be disappearing for you lot, providing we win the final I'll be happy for you lot to dick us 10-0 in our league game in your quest for top4/title <ok>

    My pal is convinced you should of had a pen just before the goal, was it? (Astro need not answer, got a feeling will have some fun with him tomorrow :p )

    I'll read through tomorrow and discuss the game properly... enjoyed the banter for both games too, been a good laugh <ok>



    P.s. Thank you very much for the £90m, helped buy the team that has seen me go to the San Siro this season and hopefully Wembley :bandit:



    P.p.s. Can we arrange a loan move for Ted to the Mancs? :biggrin:

    What is with this new tactic of putting in a million crosses each game? Clearly not working.

    Was wondering that myself, it's not like we have a good header of the ball in there.

    My opinion is that we've stopped working hard, we no longer press in numbers and the players are simply not sharp enough when we lose possession. The chemistry and passing between our front 3 has gone and that's been a combination of things.

    Coutinho Firmino Mane were playing well together, we haven't been able to play all 3 together for a long time.

    I sort of agree with the plan B thing but don't think we have the players for it. It's not like we can go 442

    I'm gutted but still have faith that Klopp will get this right, we have to sort this mini crisis out quickly.

    ****ing shocking again wasn't it. Sturridge, wow I just can't stand the guy, sell the twat while we can get some money for him.

    Persisting with Can in midfield is a terrible decision, I assume he is phenomenal in training because he couldn't be sh!tter in the games.

    Another week of 2 games a week and then hopefully get Mané back and start again. Chavs will run riot over us
