Chelsea v Liverpool Match Thread

What a limp end to the season in the league. We are still on course for a collapse which seemed impossible just a few games ago.
 
True but we can then talk about why we didn't do more to prepare the squad for that in January
Yup

People can cry that we had enough midfield depth, but we had Oxo who has a long injury list, snap with lallana, Can and Gini who are inconsistent.

We needed more in January, and those errors are coming to roost now
 
This fucking dickhead club, we fuck around against an average Everton side, we throw away a two nil lead against fucking West Brom, we barely play against Stoke and we run on embers against Chelsea. Literally a win against either of those teams and we are all but qualified, but instead here we are, fucking around on the final weekend of the season.
 
Still proud of the team. They did not lose their heads like the team that lost 2:0 to Chelsea in 2013 – we pressed all the way till the final whistle, limited Chelsea's threat on the counter and managed to create some half-chances against a very focused last year's champions who also had a big advantage in terms of freshness. Klopp did his best to freshen up the team with his substitutions and it worked to an extent, just wasn't enough. Conte had a lot more tools to work with on the bench – bringing the likes of Willian and Pedro, that's some quality. We have no divine right to win this game, Chelsea were better and deserved the 3 points, but we'll beat next week Brighton and will be all right for top 4.

The quality of attacker drops off a cliff after the front 3 also
 
I love Klop but I think he took Mane off against Stoke at home and did some silly substitutions against West Brom away... Im not going to criticise him for this match, considering the tiredness of 3 games in about 8 days... we can do it there no way Brighton Man Utd Slayers are going to be able to keep their net dry at Anfield, and we should still get some rest time before the final!
 
Its on a knife edge....now imagine losing to Brighton .
. Coming 5th
. Losing the CL final.

What happens to Klopp then ?
 
Need to win now against Brighton ti be sure of 4th. Chelsea's defended very well and took their goal well too. We seems to be poor in defence against tall strong players.
 
I try to be less critical with these kids ... we're not going to get a great performance every week ... gotta have patience to reap the rewards
And I'm all for that

But sugar coating helps nothing

He's been shite
 
Shite. Too many players dropping off when we least need it, pointless subs. Chelsea are wank, we would have battered them on form. As it is, we've decided to turn to shite when we've got the biggest game in years ahead of us.

The whole assistant manager issue just compounds the whole thing as a colossal collapse.

Hopefully a week's rest and the lack of excuse that "we can just win next week again" will mean the players don't play within themselves next week and fucking batter Brighton.
 
Also, a point or more will guarantee Huddlesfield premier league football next season, hopefully they fucking play for it on Wednesday.
 
This game feels like the 2-0 loss to Chelsea in 2013.
We play well, they get a goal and just let us shoot from outside the box ... it's really frustrating.

gentlemen, it was 2014
 
Tough loss. I can't demand more from these guys than they have delivered over the last months.... would have been a fairytale if Solanke har scored that last one and so deserved as well. We finally have a whole week to build up some freshness again and we will use this week well. I am happy with the effort given the mental and physical blowout earlier this week.

Well yes. All those posters who said we didn't need to reinvest the coutinho money... that it wasnt a bad move, etc... we've got fuckall in reserve. The club are dickheads for sanctioning it without compounding some way.
 
This squad is badly fatigued. The same 12-13 players have just played their 5th game in 15 days. That's bound to take its toll.

Not to mention that the front three have played absolutely non-stop football since January. I suspect they're mentally exhausted too especially with all the European exertion. I can imagine it being very tiring to see that there's no attacking quality on the bench who can do the business against even lower fodder teams.

Think Klopp needs to consider a 1-2 day break / holiday, if possible, before the Brighton game. The players need to rejuvenate both physically and mentally.

The Brighton game is now a must-win. We can't turn up for it looking as drained as we did today.
 
Clyne, our number one right back who would be back in the team asap now that he's fit and he would oust everyone else, has been utter shit. So well done Modo on another wank prediction.
Wow, you really are pathetic.
Guys been gone a year. Give him a pre season and we'll see who's first choice.
 
We’ve got a weeks rest, that will do this squad the World of good.
Brighton have secured their place in the Premier League and play City away on Wednesday.
We very much have this still in our own hands.

We badly need some energy and rest though.
Think we’ll see a very different Liverpool team next Sunday.
 
Well yes. All those posters who said we didn't need to reinvest the coutinho money... that it wasnt a bad move, etc... we've got fuckall in reserve. The club are dickheads for sanctioning it without compounding some way.

So it is a Coutinho replacemet we have lacked the last months? BS.

Fuck me, irony alert considering your treatment of henderson and lallana after injuries, practically lapping it up. You sad twat.
