    Yup.

    0-3 is better than I feared.

    How it was 0-0 at ht I don't know.

    Thing is, all well and good saying drop the players make changes. Not sure it’s fair to shove doak Bajcetic all into team at same time and suddenly they get beat 3-0 and taking a massive confidence boost

    This score line and performance was inevitable. Failure to invest is the root cause. Klopp has massively over-performed for half a decade but is now suffering the consequence of not refreshing the squad in a stronger way.

    They would learn more from failures than successes.
    It would be far more beneficial to give them time than for Ox to start a 5th consecutive game

    Well we wouldn't need to.

    We missed nunez big time today.

    We could for example do this

    Alisson
    Gomez matip konate
    Trent keita milner Robertson
    Salah nunez gakpo

    Now clearly that solves nothing at cm but one buy would.

    It's very clear to me that as Brighton faded thaigo who never ran a leg came into it then faded, not good enough.

    We could try Elliott or carvalho who should be as far from our goal as possible.

    A 4231?

    We could recall Tyler morton who is a cm and at least might run.

    There's lots we could do but we don't seem to want to

    We definitely need a complete rebuild from defence to attack. But will Klopp have the heart or stamina for it or will he be given the massive resources for that reconstruction?

    There is shame in losing to Brighton. Sorry but we’re Liverpool, not Hull City. This was a team that almost won the quadruple last season. The fact we’ve come to Brighton and lost 3-0 is shameful and shows how bad we’ve become.

    Tyler Morton would be an improvement in midfield, as would my Dad who played for the RAF he is 91 mind

    Klopp has more than enough credit in the bank to front a rebuild, which is clearly needed. With that said, I hope he has the energy/desire to oversee it, he looks bemused and bewildered whenever the camera pans to him on the touchline. That was a really strange performance today.

    With the players we have at present we cannot play 4-3-3 effectively plus we need to stop pretending to press as we are actually doing neither pressing nor sitting off the opponent and trying to catch on the break .

    Problems are we need a lot of new signings as the team is getting old. Will we be given the money by the owners? Even if we are will we be able to attract decent players with no CL. And finally will players want to sign knowing Klopp only has a few years left on his contract

    regardless of whether he has energy or desire, he simply won’t have the money. We are heading for mid table mediocrity without serious investment.

    Well, I'm going to face up to it, if no one else will. Klopp's tenure has probably run its course

    Trouble is Utd have hijacked our sale so I think we are stuck with FSG for now

    This season has shades of the season after we won the league. Decimated by injuries, doom and gloom all around and we limped over the line into a CL spot. Then the magnificent season we had last season. Now this really weird season. There's a pattern about it all. We haven't managed to sustain the energy needed for two seasons in a row yet.

    Has it though? FSG had the chance to capitalise and back Klopp while we peaked but they milked it and now we're at the end.. Invest and let him rebuild as he's proven that he can build a team from the ground up. Realistically there's no one who can come in now and take us on.. Im not saying he's not made mistakes but I think there are various layers to this and ultimately Klopp is one of the last ones you remove

    I think everyone should take a brea5h and just think to themselves did they really in their hearts think we would pick a different line up today or that we were not in for a hiding again.

    the issues are obvious and starting each week. they are not getting any better, and cannot even give 60mins so something aomehwere has to change.

    we don't get to make that change.

    we'd all buy klopp anyone he wants tomorrow but we don't get that call.
