Match Day Thread vs Crystal Palace (H)

Thats generally the view of our fans but I feel that if Pochettino can't finish top four (ahead of Liverpool) then he's missed a big opportunity as Klopp has to deal with the duds signed by Rodgers, while getting to grips with the league and if we can't take advantage of Chelsea's **** up of a season, or you being in transition, then you have to question if Pochettino has what it takes as manager.

Although, I'm one of the few that doubt Pochettino, so I have to take cover on rival team boards!

 

Honestly I think the only givens in the top 4 are probably City and Arsenal. I think Spurs will get top 4 if they continue a decent season. United are the low fruit for picking. I suspect they'll not be top 4 come February. Not if they stick with LVG.

 

Credit to Klopp, he's telling the players what they have to do. He's more annoyed with them than the early departure of the fans. The sad thing is that near the end of the match when we go down we can't find a way back and it's lethargy and resignation that makes fans go early. We've seen it all before, not that I condone it. It won't be any exception under Klopp because they're not watching his squad.

What irks me is how quickly we seem to go a goal down lately. It was a sloppy start yesterday and we were all over the shop until we settled down.

 

Conceding late goals is what we need to address. We have ourselves to blame not to take our chances
with all the possession.

 

United have only lost one league game since August, they've kept 8 clean sheets in 12 games, and you think they should sack him? lol.

 

Gutted with yesterdays result but we have to move on, the Palace center backs were both brilliant. Too many of our players were not up to it yesterday and we got bullied, Can and Lucas were poor in the middle and if you lose it in there you lose the game.

Fans leaving way too early, I like it that Klopp brought that up.

 

Are they boo's of satisfaction then?

 

It was a tired performance but had we taken our chances, things would have been different.

Not the end of the world - this is gonna take time. Can't wait for Klopp to start bringing in his own players, and for Sturridge and Hendo to start.

 

I think Sakho is the only centre back capable of defending. Maybe I am wrong !,

 

Unfortunately, you're not wrong.

Klopp will address it.

 

It's the style that's getting booed. Difficult to argue with the majority of results.

 

You're winning. Stop booing,

 

And LVG is responsible for the style yeah?

 

The only booing was when we were drawing a game that should have been a cakewalk and the manager withdrew a striker and replaced him with a midfielder.

Winning isn't everything. Fans want to be entertained as well.

 

Yep but I doubt he'll be sacked for the style of football if he's getting positive results.

 

It's not a question of giving up....they do it whatever the score....to "beat the traffic" Morons. Never ever left a game before the final whistle (although I did consider it once...3-0 down to the scum in half an hour....Giggs ripping us a new arsehole....final score....3-3 )

For the record @Stan, Old Trafford really is the worst for it with the Emirates a close second (if you went to games you would know that surely). However you have a point about the atmosphere beforehand quickly dissipating and rarely picking back up throughout the full 90. Same is true of quite a few grounds nowadays and the Anfield crowd is as guilty as any of them. Not exactly new news is it. What is new though is a manager with the bollocks to say something about it. He can shame every last one of them as far as I'm concerned, next home game I reckon they'll be trying to tiptoe past him

The spoilt prawn sandwich munchers who bemoaned the fact that they're not scoring bucket loads of goals are irrelevant to the point I made. There's no reason to sack a manager who's delivered what he has season to date. They're 2 points off the top ffs.

 

He will be there for the rest of this season for sure

Everything will depend on where you finish of course

 

Klopp out!

 

Nope, several grounds I've been to that have a worse atmosphere than OT, despite the fact that when at those grounds the recognised best away fans in the league (Man United's) are doing their best to bring some life into them!

OT's atmosphere has gradually got worse over the years. As ever Liverpool are following in our footsteps. It's 90 seconds of YNWA followed by 90 minutes of YAWN.
