    lol the guy took a **** squad and got us top 4 in one of the most competitive leagues last season. And on a budget.

    Klopp took a relatively **** squad compared to our rivals, added some decent options and got us top 4, as wel as two finals which we’re not used to.

    We’ve seen progress in each of the seasons - bar the past four games, we’ve added to this team but boosting our attack. Our defence and midfield are still dross but we’re still better IMO. Salah Mane and Firmino have been excellent this season, undone by our **** defence.

    Not only that, we have players desperate to join us over rivals. We’re finalmy competing for one top targets.

    Klopp is a very good manager, the best one since Rafa. I still have faith.

    Fair play Jimmy, my gripe with him is that he's now admitted he's as sick as us with the defensive errors but the transfer window is now shut and we have to make do with some more underachievers until at least January.

    ahem... theres no 5 in the world better than that.

    and january is no time to buy..

    so... those are klopps words. I doubt anything will change this season.

    He NEEDS to change his system and FAST. if you cannot ****ing defend, fix what you can with what you have.

    5 or absolute max 6 can press. no more. the rest must sit AND we must focus on shape and recovering and keeping good shape at all times. Mistakes can happen but if you never get back into a good shape then you will have spaces all over.

    Look at how ****ing dire leicester were yesterday. I still think they had no RB the whole first half. It was ridiculous. they were focusing on chasing coutinho around wh osat deep and passed it and robertson had a free bloody run all half.

    Once we conceded the first goal to a good header clearance off a corner... our heads went. we failed to get out and play offside from (criminal defending) 9/10 i see a stright ball back in form that scenario a flag goes up. most sides would not even think to play a straight ball back in they look for at least a good angle to a wide area to minimise chance of a break on them.

    then we were wide open. midfielders abandoning their duties to pretend to be attackers (grujic) henderson decides to be a LW.. we see nobody marking up form a throw. loads of space and a free run in. You can see when we chase any game we lose shape and players start losing their position and going and doing their own thing.

    IMO we lack leadership. We have a game plan but the minute something goes wrong it goes out the window and we lose it.

    But January will come and again **** all will be done; again we'll be fed the crap that we don't buy in January. This **** will go on until May.

    So now Klopp is sick of it all. I'd like to know where he's been and what he's been doing while we've been tearing our hair out. Time he did something about it, then.

    80 shots and 3 goals suggests our attack isn't all that...

    Two cup finals and top 4 finish, yes so do I.

    Why are you wasting your time here btw, shouldn't you be on your board whinging about VVD. Those whining comments aren't going to write themselves ....

    What ... that's some weird logic you have there. How can any player we've never had impact our season. Maybe you need to worry more about your own.
    Always next 132 years chumps .... <laugh>

    Just had a quick look - it's far worse than I thought -
    1 League Cup .. 7 years ago
    1 FA Cup ..... 42 years ago <yikes> .... and that's it <laugh>

    'chumps' doesn't even begin to describe it .....

    When it comes down to it, there's been little progress since last season. The attack is all very well and all very pretty, but it's goals that count and we're not scoring enough in the great scheme of things and leaking too many. Overall, it's bloody same old.

    Maybe I just knew - I actually remember the FA Cup final, Clive Thomas the referee famously said afterwards that Southampton's goal was probably offside so they shouldn't have even won that cup <laugh>

    Mick Channon when asked was his name pronounced Channon or Shannon said 'I don't really know, say it any way you like'. <laugh>
