I admit that this is the most angry I've felt after a match for ages, but it's because it was so obvious we could have won it and it was a microcosm of all of Klopp's failings. From the transfer market in the summer to the defenders he picks now to the people he thinks he can rotate, his substitutions, and to do it in a derby when we are on fire. It's maddening. Frustrating. Ridiculous.
I'm doing one of my inside rages. A stupid joke. We'll probably best West Brom, and Klopp will feel vindicated. See also: Chelsea, and then Stoke.
Mane lost us the game, no doubt about it. Fuck Lovren messing around. It was never a peno, but he asked the ref who blew for *every* fucking bit of contact, to give a penalty. If we scored with Mane that was game over, 2-0 at halftime and we'd probably score more.
I'd say blame Klopp but only for the subs... Mane was done early one but he takes Salah off. Mane off for Coutinho and it'd look proper different. Klopp's shortcoming is in his inability to make a decent sub. He's shit with them, and it keeps costing us.
Same as against Chelsea. Wait until we concede and be like oh yeah, bring one of our best players on, woops.
We'll likely edge top 4 still, but we'll lose Coutinho and Can, and bring in Keita. Two steps forward, one step back every fucking season.
Gah.
If we beat WBA and Bournemouth though, he can grin like a bastard again, fine. We've all got short memories. If not, he's a cunt who thinks he's smarter than Guardiola. He might be, but he's not as rich.
Still fuming more at Mane though.
