That is about right - and there is one common theme - the midfield in the three losses away have always involved Milner, Henderson, and Gini as midfielders for most of the game. Am I right on this ?
Lallana is bad luck - have believed this since the penalty shoot out in that cup final against City. It's just he way it is - some players are bad luck and people/coaches are fooled into believing they provide something extra when they don't.
The possession thing - I think Klopp is more than capable of playing that style - in his first full season we were pressing and having possession - averaging over 61% that season, and the margins between us and our rivals was very little in comparison to what it has been since the second half of last season. I just wonder if Klopp is just holding back the intensity so that the players he has don't get fucked up and injured in the 2nd half of the season. Last season - if you all recall -by the time the CL semi 2nd leg - we had no fit midfielders other than the three that played tonight. It's a shame - as actually we have three forward attacking mids - Kieta, Ox, and Shakiri (if you consider him a midfielder of the attacking variety) -two are crooked. I don't think we can actually accommodate another in the squad
First Moron gives up on LFC, now he's given up on the Enlightenment. He'll be burning witches next.
I hate that cliche. We won't 'click' unless we radically improve in just about every area.
It's bollox - we have the players - it's just not working because of the coaching/methodology right now. Clearly he is asking them to play a different way which is less exhausting - and we can understand that given the injuries last season, but basic pass and moving into space has somehow escaped our players minds - it's fucking ... stupid. The build up play from the middle is just completely lacking - we keep trying to move the ball to the right/left in crowded areas - and then not one of our front lot come into the gap in the middle to receive a pass and then run a bit with the ball. Everything is so fucking pedestrian that I think most over 50's would have enough time to setup a defense to stop our front men.
A late home win against Napoli to stay in it. Couldn't be anything but Liverpool, lads
He did that last season at the same stage. Next.
Got to be Studge for the miss from 5m. Changed the game.
Why 2 clear goals ? On head to heads it's aggregate that counts. So whatever happens away in Paris if we win at home to Napoli we're through whatever the scoreline.
I actually think you guys are being too harsh on Lallana. I think he was great yesterday. Pressed the ball holder, ran his legs off and also showed glimpses of his world class technique and creativity. I really think Klopp should keep playing him, he's a great option to have in the squad and might just give us some of that Coutinho-esque magic from time to time.
You really can be boring Modo.
If there was serious concern about safety, I would fully support it.
However, from what I read - and please correct me if I'm wrong - it was about 'distraction' that his presence would cause ... If that meant 'safety', I take back my criticism.
I forgot to add that I think the next few weeks will be a big test for Klopp.
His team is clearly struggling, he was clearly pissed off yesterday and the team was fucking flat. He's gotta figure out how to fix the middle & front 3 ... If he doesn't, we'll still finish top 4 imo but is that good enough?
From the pre-Arsenal thread :
What I didn't mention was that the 3-4 matches before that Highbury game, while we were getting the results, the performances were poor.
I hope last night was not Klopp's Highbury
God - I'm getting negative these days. Cheer me up someone!

There was a similar time under Houllier in 2002
If memory serves me correctly, we'd finished 4th, 3rd and then 2nd in the 3 seasons prior. So many were sort of expecting us to make the final step and finish 1st in the 2002/2003 season.
Everything started really well, by November we were top of the table. Then we went to Middlesbrough, Dudek fumbled a cross for them to score the winner, and we literally fell flat and never recovered after that. The next 18 months were dreadful, and Ged was eventually replaced by Benitez.
I think that was more a case of Houllier's dreadful football finally catching up with him. Don't think it will happen to Klopp.

Its ok mate at sometime today you should get a response from @LeTallecWiz ... he usually finds good points in a shit performance...shit that you obviously misswd...and then @Oncy will come on here to cheer you up...no doubt he will re assure you the next game will be different as Klopp will play @Oncy 's cock up front and in midfield. Nothing will get passed that !!!
Feel happy now ?
Think about that fully signed LFC football I kindly sent you that you donated to your local school. In my mind that means both of us are super cool. 🙂
Also if anyone wants Tom's address it's hilariously. Tom Brown, Ireland. 😀
Oh God - I also remember that Boro game clearly. Not that I was at it or even watching it, but I was on our last weekend away with my lad as an only child, 2 weeks before his sister was born. I was in the hotel pool with him that afternoon and they had the local radio station piped in, with score updates.
How come I only remember the bad days these days … ?
That would probably work.
Thanks again for the ball … I believe a few quid were raised as a result of it
Moron moron moron ... You need to get laid dude, badly.
That's not a nice thing to say. We should get behind all of our players. They're doing their best!
Klopp's use of the word 'distraction' was clearly a proxy for 'safety'.
