Time to make yourself a hero Danny, to get us in the AFCON

 

[Shadey]

Klopp out

 

[Fabio]

Lovely pens by nearly everyone there

 

[Modo]

Captain Sideways strikes again.

 

[Raz]

Klopp out.

 

[Oncy]

Poor game today. Thats crazy playing 2 in 2 days.
Kent was a highlight.

 

[Fabio]

Klavan man of the match

 

[Fabio]

Captain Sideways strikes again.

Hey


Get to fuck

 

[Oncy]

Klavan binman of the match

 

[Oncy]

Paul Ince always sounds like hes about to burst into tears.

 

[Gerry_A_Trick]

Another final loss for Klopp.

 

[the count]

Grujic looks like he could get a bit of game time this season.
I wouldn't be crazy on the idea of Gomez playing right back against Palace,
He seems to get caught out of position ball watching too frequently

 

[mark1975]

What's he doing playing with the reserves? I mean, I thought he was bound for Barca, PSG or Juventus?

Oh look, the retarded, shit stirring version of Modo is back. You must be chuffed tonight, Lallana had a nothing game and Henderson missed a penalty. Go and have an English hatred fueled wank or something.

Yea, fuck you Modo.

He won the last one.

 

[Squiggles]

Klaven and Gomez are just not good enough back up CB options. Neither would a game for many PL clubs.

Give Gomez time. He has played very little football and could well develop quickly. But, yeah, wasn't too flash tonight. And Klavan isn't good enough, I agree.

I think tonight confirms that our squad lacks depth. We've got some truly outstanding footballers but they can't do 50 games in 10 months.

Not only have we stalled on signing first team game changers we seem to have failed regarding the second 11 - only one LB recruited so far unless we consider Solanke.

I'm getting nervous

It's more like he's always just one small step away from saying 'I can't fucking take this anymore' and shooting his own brain.

I think all it confirmed was that there were a lot of tired legs out there. Whoever signed us up to play two games in two days needs a smack. In fact it's obvious Klopp has been distinctly unimpressed with the whole itinerary this summer.


As for the squad, I've said many times that we ideally need six or seven really good players. Well, we've signed an excellent one in Salah and two promising ones in Solanke and Robertson, and hopefully we'll get VVD. So that will be four. We also have some very good young players in Kent, Woodburn and TAA more or less ready to play a role. And, fingers crossed, we'll soon have long-term absentees Gomez and Ings back in contention. Maybe Flanagan too if he really has overcome those knee problems. So I don't think there's any need to get overly anxious. I'd like us to get a couple more players but we haven't done badly so far.

 

[Hansern]

Gomez looks like he can be a player for us, but is still young and unproven.

Klavan just isnt good enough.

 

[Mystic]

VVD will turn this summer from a bad one to a decent one. Keita would have made it a great summer, but that's not going to happen.

I agree. Though to be fair he's been out for ages and it's going to be a while for him to get back into it. A few sub appearances when we're in control would not harm. A very mixed bag from him but this competition has been a good run out.

Probably the sanest post I've read on 6CM for a while.

I know it's preseason ... and I know Bayern have looked shit ... but we created chances non-stop against two of the top teams in Europe.
If we can keep the core healthy this year - Firmino, Salah, Mane, Coutinho - we will be a dangerous team in every competition.
We need to sort out or defense, but until injuries/AFCON creeped up last year, we were doing really well despite that ...

5 games a month?

Hasn't that been the primary concern?
