WBA’s third goal that was disallowed and that was a kick in the teeth and then was ruled out. Then we got a penalty at the other end straight away. I thought that was pretty exciting.
Talking of Shanks. "Emre, it's time you signed a new contract son" Can, "I'm not sure I want to stay boss, Juventus are after me" "Well you'll have plenty of time to learn Italian in between youth games, arrivederci son, don't trap your fingers in the door on your way out" But Herr Klopp rewards him with the captain's armband.
yup I expect minimum 3 changes ofr next game. Matip shouldn't get a game for at least 5 games. windy needs a kick. he's absolutely abysmal. mane needs to wake up or he will be one. Robertson should be back in. i would go 4231 next. stick.horrenderson and.milner in lovren and Gomez and robertson. The message has to go out. they were piss poor v swansea but to react like that at home v West Brom in cup is over the line and changes must happen. i still see no apology to the crowd who supported them all through... they are dmaned lucky they didnt get turned on like some fans would.
Really hope that finally this leads to a review of our "defensive" organisation or it won't matter a jot who we buy. PS @JurgenKlopp FFS if Karius is your first choice goalie just ****ing play him week in week out & let him build a relationship with the defenders.
It's an absolute scandal that the likes of Mignolet, Moreno, Klavan, Matip, Lovren et al have been allowed to stay on this long; and I'm sorry but Karius is also horse ****. We have far too many average players in our squad. The Champions League? You must be ****ing joking!.
Klopp has continuously said he's happy with what he's got in regards to defenders and keepers, could be saying that to give the players confidence, on the other hand he might be deluded and actually believe what he said.
How long will it take him to realise that they are actually ****? How many cup competitions will we have to get dumped out of and be made to look humiliated against teams at the bottom half of the table before the penny finally drops? He must have realised by yesterday's boos that the fans were furious. He can't feel comfortable by that reaction. He might be happy with it, but we're not!
Klopp reminds me a lot of Arsene Wenger, all and sundry can see where the major weaknesses are in his team, but he's to stupid to see it for himself. I honestly think you'd struggle to find a worse goalkeeper in the whole PL and even Championship than Karius, but Klopp is such a dopey manager, that he'll continue to keep faith in him til the end of the season, despite having 145m+ sat in the transfer kitty. It won't be long before your all calling for him to be sacked, like the Arsenal fans are with Wenger.
The defenders are made too look worse than they are by the set up we use and the lack of cover so often from MF. Are there better defenders out there ? obviously the answer is yes but we don't make the best of the ones we have . The slightly bizarre nature of some of the decisions re defensive personnel are worrying as well . Main examples being a) How does Moreno go from being the backup to Milner ,in fact by the end of last season his stock was so low he was normally brought on as LM rather than FB ,yet this season he is automatic first choice. b) The Goalkeepers please just pick one & stick with it and honestly just choose Karius because thats the one he wants plus what little confidence Mignolet had has now gone. c) VVD for £75m
