    We're cutting out the middle man this season, he's meeting Klopp in Blackpool later

    High line has been absolutely suicidal today. Stupidity from Ralph to keep trying to play that defensive approach against Son of all players.

    Not even on bench - more weeks to get “fit”? One for the future? Next season?

    Why is our defence playing so ****ing high? Why have we changed the way we were playing so successfully? Ridiculous

    It’s the central midfield where the main problem is, if you play as high a line as us you cannot give the ball away so much.

    Aaaaand there’s Son’s 4th.

    3 matches in a row the same tactics have failed for the same reason, time for a change.

    Worse I’ve seen McCarthy also.

    Btw is Lamela allowed to block off Walker Peters for the 3rd?

    Same as last season, Ralph tried to implement “his” style during the end of season break, we were ****. He switched back to a simplified version of it (like when he first arrived) and we improved dramatically.

    Spot on. Wonder if this will be the one or he will persist further?

    Hopefully the latter.

    We're quite rubbish aren't we. This isn't fun anymore.
    Can't blame the home fans either
