Looking so much better.
Great pressing, good quick passing
 
Does Lallana have photos of Klopp in a compromising position.

Can't see who he manages to keep starting games, 0 goals 3 assists. Top quality stuff for an attacking mid <doh>
 
Enjoying this <ok>

Good effort from Lallana, curling away from keeper, good save.
 
So frustrating that the players can play this way and last few weeks just haven't even looked close to it.
 
Perhaps too early to criticize but Mignolet does this thing that I truly do not understand how a professional football goalkeeper can allow himself to do. He collects the ball, and with 3 Stoke players out of defensive position in his immediate vicinity (yet not threatening him whatsoever) he gathers the ball and holds onto it. He has no sense of urgency. He jogs back, looks up as if he's picking out a pass, then pings it straight to a Stoke player and loses the ball. So not only has he waited too long for a counter-attack but he's also given it away to a Stoke now with all players back in position.

He does it all the time and I'm not sure how hard it is to tell him to ****ing release the ball earlier even if it's just to your fullbacks.

When Cout and Firmino link up it really is a joy to watch. Just need to do it on a more consistent basis.

If we don't get at least 2 goals from the front 3 they can shut the **** up and accept they deserve to be Benteke's Bitches

Firmino has same major flaw as Benteke up front regarding needing space and creative assistance. Not really much of an advantage over Benteke but at least Ben gets a chance to rest.

It's psychological, we're within a couple of games of winning this cup, in the league I don't think players can convince themselves they've got what it takes over the season in comparison to others
