Match Day Thread vs WBA (H)

Only pointing out that many of you don't like Benteke or Milner (Lallana too sometimes) yet Klopp leaves Origi, Firmino and Ibe on the bench. Who is right with the team selections and tactics, Klopp or the fans?

 

are you convinced by everything your manager does?

fans always think they know better than the manager.

 

Fair enough.

He's still bloody useless.

 

I am far from convinced by most of what our manager does and will freely admit it.

 

It was poor of Klopp to keep using certain players but he's hardly had a chance to work with them. He's had no pre season.

He doesn't know how **** some of our players as he's not had the misfortune of having to watch them over past 12 months.

Combined with injuries and squad rotation.

 

Take it you missed my comment about crossing...

 

All fair points

The pre-season bit is stretching things though, they are a settled squad mid-season so shouldn't need too much work, its not as if he is integrating new players.

 

What you said something else unrelated to benteke abuse and it was actually worth reading!

 

That's a separate matter.

He's still ****ed so we will have kolo in over Christmas.

 

The pre season comment is about Klopp not having time to evaluate players as he didn't have a pre season. He is still taking his time to determine which players are good enough.

We bought **** like Milner and Benteke because they're premier league proven but are quite frankly garbage, and our senior players like Skrtel are simply not good enough.

It will take time for Klopp to shift the deadwood left over from previous regimes.

 

Obviously I don't wish an injury on a player (not even a rival). Do we know how long he's out for?

As for Kolo, Sakho was back in (light) training this week. So we might only have to put up with Kolo for one game, if any.

 

We may even have to move Can into CB temporarily.

Few positives:-

- Coutinho was really good in the first half. Class on the ball. Put Firmino near him and these two can do damage.

- Can controlled the midfield. Great on the ball, composed, and wins it back.

- Origi continues to impress. Looks a completely different player. Amazing what a bit of confidence does to a player. Has to be starting the next game.

 

Love watching Klopp's pressers. Speaks about the atmosphere and fan support today.

 

I didn't abuse Benteke at any point

 

Why don't you write to him and ask if you can blow him off mate

 

Someone's a bit touchy today ...

 

Ignore him. Hes obvs ****ed up at his Christmas party on Fri and is#worried

 

Another awful performance from him. We'd be better off having Sturridge on the pitch in a wheelchair than that lump. In fact we'd be better off just having the empty wheelchair up front I never expected him to be a world beater (far from it) but didn't realise just how piss poor he'd be.

I wouldn't keep him as plan g but reckon we'll be stuck with him so let's hope Klopp can polish the proverbial turd.

 

Social ineptitude is not a trait of mine I'm afraid.

So that'll be another #fail right there mate x

 

Not sure about being stuck with him - he's not a Klopp signing so he doesn't have to stick with him. Similar to Rodgers and Carroll.
