    I will also - if you don't have Milner for LB & better CB pairing.

    Love Klopp's free flowing footy - it was like under Rodgers. however you will fall short because of your defense.

    just ask Moyesy - how bad he needs a decent defender - to avoid snatching losses from the jaws of victory. Poor Moyesy.. hope he gets a crack until January window. he can steer Sunderland well once he gets a decent defender.

  6. I may well nip over there to converse with them in their own tongue. They love me for that.

    Not sure if you've noticed but we've got Matip as our number 1 CB now? Possibly the best CB in the league (maybe Alderwierld?). Lovren is also very good since Klopp has come in.

    Milner has been excellent at LB.

    I'm not worried about those positions at all.

    I'm more concerned about who to bet on scoring the most, everyone seems to be scoring.

    You paid the ref you bent ****.

    How much you out of pocket today? I'd say a refs performance like that has to be 10k?

    ....only thing I disagree with is Rooney ... we"ve coped with him comfortably in recent times ... Pogba got MOTM and rightly so ... great vision and speed of both thought and pass ... ripped us to shreds ... Rooney on the pitch would have slowed the game down and Pogba wouldn't have been at the centre of everything...

    Rooney can be played out wide instead of Lindegard.. Rooney is ineffective in the middle.

    But Rooney is not as bad as it is made out to be..

    Lets not forget - Pogba is given freedom thanks to ball playing Herrera unlike Fellaini.

    Easy win for United in the end. Best result against the champions. No help from the ref needed today either.

    Put Mikhi in for Lingard next game and we'll get even better. Worrying times for the rest :biggrin:

    ... I also don't think Kante would have made too much difference against either Liverpool or United ...timing of passes and speed of movement very good from both opposition.... bit like Arsenal are currently doing... :)

    No ****..

    We have the worst defensive back 4 in the league...

    No one can defend - including Makele.

  18. Chelsea are utter pants!

    If we don't knock at least 3 past them I expect Poch and the boys to be very disappointed.

    Beating them is a no-mark achievement these days. Burnley seem a better competition imo.
