I expected this loss, I expected the end of this era, and I expected ross to make shit posts.
What I didn't expect is lentil lasagna. That's the biggest abomination of all.
I love lentils, I love lasagna.
Nobody is playing for Klopp anymore

I love lentils, I love lasagna.
In a word no.
I would never mix the two - I'd lose my Italian citizenship if I did.
I prefer mine with peppers (regular & spicy) and various other veggies.
Maybe I'll make some tomorrow.
Lentil lasagna is boss if you do it right (lots of chopped mushrooms in there for texture balance
Zero mushrooms for us.
Wife(the veggie) doesn't like them. A vegetarian who doesn't like mushrooms. Worse than Big Becker's fuck up today.
I had a mushroom burger with a juicy Portobello on top for the double mushroom feeling for lunch. Amazing
Sorry, had to correct my post. She doesn't like mushrooms.
I'm ok with them but a mushroom burger topped with more mushrooms. Not for me.
Aye well it was in the fridge and it was for eating so I thought fuck it. Was the most rewarding thing all day given the shite in the match
You can't do it right. It isn't lasagna. It's a sloppy casserole.
Correct. It's hard to fuck up a dish that has so much flexibility, but we did it, didn't we vegans?
You can always find a balance. A little blend of 1/4 of the mixture for a tighter result that binds and you can scoop that boy out like a slice
Removing the meat was like removing VVD from our team.
Yeah, there are hundreds of dishes that are naturally vegan, entire cuisines indeed. None are called lasagna.
I had a lot cheese going on here.
Klopgsdon
I think its time we look away from the defense issues - other than today we have not conceded too many goals with VVD plus the other two missing. The issue is one of creativity - we still have it like we did against Spurs and West Ham, but we don't have it enough and that is the problem. We really need to sort our shit out as Chelsea are now starting to get some consistency and as for the players playing for Klopp - I fucking hope so.
I don't think it boils down to Klopp - but everything is stale.
Why is everything stale?
We've played the same system for 3 seasons in a row. We've had the same personnel in all key roles (GK, full backs, front three, CM trio) for the majority of that period. That team will obviously get bored, tired and lack invention because everyone has played the same way for so long. We tried to buy a single attacker to challenge the front three - injured. We tried to buy a full back to challenge Robbo but we aren't playing the younger full backs without VVD & Gomez. We bought a new CM to make things a bit different in midfield, but the two best CMs in the premier league are currently our CB pairing.
Of course is it shit. And it is really shit - to the point of a game starting and within 5 minutes knowing 'we probably aren't going to have a shot on target this half'.
We have players on the fringes who are good, some great - but we are playing them in a system that doesn't fit for that (that is Klopp) - Origi, Shaq, Thiago, Milner, Jones. We need to find a system that works for them, not try and make them work in our broken system.
It's lucky we have a week off now - get the two CBs ready to start together and get Fabinho & Hendo back into the middle.

I think it's difficult to win leagues, against a relentless City side, when essentially we have a squad of only 14 players we can trust. These really are the only players we can somewhat trust, both quality wise and injury wise, in the squad:
GOALKEEPERS
Alisson Becker
Caoimhin Kelleher
DEFENDERS
Virgil van Dijk
Andy Robertson
Trent Alexander-Arnold
MIDFIELDERS
Fabinho
Georginio Wijnaldum
Thiago Alcantara (TBC)
Jordan Henderson
Curtis Jones
FORWARDS
Roberto Firmino
Sadio Mane
Mohamed Salah
Diogo Jota

*Millie I don't think has the legs anymore for 3 games a week, and 90mins.
Gini appears to be leaving, so we'll have only 13 players to choose from next year.
What's concerning to me is that we could be winning so much if we properly filled out our squad before our front 3 got too old (as Barca did last year with Messi/Suarez/Busquets/Alba etc), but we appear to be resting on our laurels in the transfer window. It's beggar's belief that Kabak and Davies wasn't brought in at the start of Jan (if we thought they were good enough).

So Who do you want.. ?
Worst case scenario . ??
Klopp doesn't make Top 4 he's is in all likelihood, probably gone, if not at the end of the season, next season if things don't improve, right away.
Will be a financial disaster for Liverpool, particularly in this climate and the fact many of our sponsorship deals pay better when in Europe Top Tier..
Gerrard.. for me.. has the makings of being a great manager..
Failing that, we should sound out Lampard.
He won't be gone if we don't get top 4, that's just ridiculous thinking. As for financial disaster, we won the CL, League and World Club Cup and signed one biggish signing. CL qualification doesn't seem to have a massive bearing on whether we spend big, it's down to whether we sell big first.
I agree. (This was bait)
The club will sell to buy..
Madrid and Barca will be waiting in the wings. Like vultures. ..
Players like VVD, Salah and Mane will want champions League football
Trouble is for them. not many teams will be able to stump up the required fees we would want in this Climate
Harvey Elliott is seen by the club as the Natural Replacement to Salah.. in the long term
You would probably see Mane go before Salah for that reason. Tbf..

Lolllll hiring Lampard hahahahhaha that's good that made me feel a lot better thanks
