    yep that covers it
    why bother with a Sky subscription when all you need need is BBC live texts <laugh>
    though you could just have watched a rerun of the last couple of games between us to get a fair impression of the match

    What we've got at Liverpool are a bunch of players who, when they show up and want to play, expend a lot of energy and that's about it. Other than that they're bang average. Bang average energy expenders.

    They don't create enough, there's no cutting edge, nobody can finish, they're poor defensively. On good days Klopp's management can get us a nice result like the big wins we had last year but most of the time the lack of skill in, or squandering of talent by the players undermines it all. The likes of Milner, Lallana, Henderson, Firmino most of the time last game excepted obviously, Can, Lucas, Moreno, Clyne ... better stop I'm just naming the entire ****ing side here. Oh the CBs and GK. Well, we already know they're a scrapyard job lot. Get them on the flat bed for the big claw to carry as far the **** away from Anfield as possible.

    Despite that we were the better side overall but that's meaningless now. They've got a class keeper. They took their big chance. We took none of ours. The result's fair enough. Klopp knows what needs to be done.

  3. Thing is, it was Fellaini or Mata; both have good records against us.

    You'd probably win a five a side league. The reality is if teams are daft enough to let you knock it about at your own pace then you'll hurt them. If you're asked to actually work hard and play this gangbang high pressing football against teams that are prepared to soak it up then you'll struggle.

    I think Klopp's main issue at the minute is he's not used to such a competitive league. LVG is still coming to terms with that.

    We've lots of players for Exeter it's up to them to come and play.

    Sturridge isn't knuckling down. He's whining of niggles so we will see if he ever gets through a week of training.

    You had lots of players for Exeter the first time, they all suddenly developed 1 game injuries. Do you think that may happen again, because a loss to Exeter after today could put a real dent in your confidence.

    Not worried to be honest. Disappointing obviously but this season will be up and down. Will be great if we can lift a cup!

    We're in good hands, thats the main thing

    Fair comment, but surely he should be doing better than Rodgers did with them?

    Should be doing better with the players that Rodgers bought? Rodgers bought them and he even couldn't get the best out of them.

    Next season will be the proper season to judge Klopp, he needs time.

    Lots of managers buy players then better mangers go in and improve them. That is why you change managers.

    I like to think many managers can get better out of the players LvG has bought <ok>
