Klopp's Methods Getting Stick Again...

[Iceman]

Still no options on the bench.

[an tha]

Klopp did "the square root" of fuck all in basle because he had no other options on the bench, not because he was tactically inept.

and here we are a year later and still no options to change games on the bench really....he has to shoulder his share of blame for that still being the case.

[Iceman]

A tramp sleeping on a park bench with one shoe and shyte filling his jeans > better than our bench.

[ZonkoVille77]

Klopp and Gerrard between them are out to ruin the club.

[jimmycase]

He's shifted a load of shite. Rome (and Dortmund) wasnt built in a day.

We were being totally overrun in midfield, the front three of Sturbridge,coutinho and Firmino weren't in the game at all, it was all being in front of them. He could of taken one of them off and put either

Joe Allen or Lucas on to at least stem the tide and try and keep us in the game. He chose to do fuck all, Seville inevitably scored again and the rest is history.

Sorry but that's complete bollocks.

 

He's had 3 transfer windows to ensure there are quality options on our bench in the first place, which he's failed to do. Then there's the Sakho situation and then choosing Lucas ahead of him and even Klaven for example.

 

Secondly just throw some youngsters into the mix. Look at how TAA did in the games he brought in when Clyne was out. Would he have played if Clyne was available? Not a fucking chance. Stick Ejaria in midfield instead of Can for example. Woodburn/Ojo instead of any of the attackers.

 

We have a central midfielder playing left back. We have another central midfielder playing at CB. We have a player in Firmino who should not be playing up front. He's still persisting with playing a high line with our full backs bombing forward leaving our defence vulnerable to counter attacks.

 

And you say he's not tactically inept?

[BCM]

It seems he is working with one hand tied behind his back. -3ml in net spend through three windows

 

He is.

 

Nothing will change with this football club until the owners ditch this ridiculous transfer strategy and invest properly in the players the team needs. No Manager we could get could bring the success the fans want whilst we approach team building in this haphazard manner.

 

No Goalkeeper worthy of the name

No Defender capable of organising and leading.

No Dominant Central Midfielder Or Defensive Midfielder

No Top Striker

 

Run through the spine of this side and its one of the worst in the top 6  We need to spend serious money on about 5 players.

And more than that we need to buy more experienced quality older players. Players that can dig this shower out on the pitch, ive never seen such a bunch of timid shithouses when we are getting beat. Nobody gives a fuck, no bad tackles, no giving players both barrels when up against it.  No late onslaughts when we are getting beat.

Its one of the worst Liverpool squads ive seen in the best part of 40 years, not talking about talent, but bottle, character, World class players , Leaders.

 

Anyway lets buy some more boys in the summer, Just dont be surprised when you see more (Men  V Boys) performances like we saw against Leicester.

Repped as much out of hope as agreement mate

[3 Stacks]

He's lost 5 straight cup finals and we're losing time and time again to the same exact type of team. It's obvious he has a tactical problem.

 

There are other problems, notably the lack of quality in the squad, but he needs to look in the mirror and figure something out because fair or not, his reputation as a world-class manager is going to start to turn.

[Baltar]

It's going to be a big summer for Jurgen. FSG have got to back him with a massive transfer budget. We need to improve the squad immensely if we have any hope of challenging for the title again. Our bench options are a joke. The first 11 is reasonably good but we need to add at least 5 or 6 top players to the squad this summer. And I mean top players, not promising youngsters like Origi or "reliable", cheap veterans like Klavan. Once we have a capable squad then we can offer a fair judgement on Jurgen. I think he'll come good providing the tight arse owners back him properly in the transfer market. 

[Paco]

Still no options on the bench.

We're missing 4 players Lovren sturridge ings Henderson. If they're all fit we don't have Stewart Alexander Woodburn on the bench and it looks better.

 

Don't make me post those benches from 01 and 05 again. 01 in particular was mad considering I thought we'd tremendous strength in depth in that squad. Whether you like it or not its the first 11, we know who that is, then sturridge etc on bench then kids. We can't have a load of other players who have to wait until players get injured to get on the bench especially with no Europe.

[Iceman]

And there it is. 

 

You have accepted mediocrity. 

 

Lovren - shite

Hendo - wank

Ings - done

Sturridge - can't even handle a wheelchair. 

[therevivalist]

Why am I thinking Rafa is coming back!

[therevivalist]

Why do I have the feeling that Rafa is coming back, eventually?

[Tony Moanero]

Absolutely no chance.

[General Dryness]

The problems start at the top. It's the shitness of modern football - as long as the club is turning a profit, the owners don't care if they win anything.

 

Unfortunately these days there's as much money to be made out of coming in the top four of the league as there is in winning it, give or take. The CL is the golden goose, and the domestic cups mean nothing financially.

 

It's a shite state of affairs.

[Paco]

And there it is.

 

You have accepted mediocrity.

 

Lovren - shite

Hendo - wank

Ings - done

Sturridge - can't even handle a wheelchair.

I accept this is the squad Klopp wants at the minute and a bench of origi sturridge Lucas Klavan Moreno can Karius looks better than Stewart Alexander Woodburn etc

[aRdja]

And there it is.

 

You have accepted mediocrity.

 

Lovren - shite

Hendo - wank

Ings - done

Sturridge - can't even handle a wheelchair.

We would've done better if all of the above started.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Not so sure about that actually. I think Klavan is 2. Bundesliga standard, and it's probably where he'd have ended up if we didn't get him. Moreno is just nowhere near good enough, and neither is the current version of Lucas.

Repped for imagination.

[Soleilrouge]

Is there method in his madness or madness in his method?

[Dave D]

Everton keep hold of Lukaku, sign Rooney and one or two others of Schneiderlin level they could push us out of the equation if we don get our shit together.

 

If we were ever in it

[Paco]

Not so sure about that actually. I think Klavan is 2. Bundesliga standard, and it's probably where he'd have ended up if we didn't get him. Moreno is just nowhere near good enough, and neither is the current version of Lucas.

I'm not debating the quality of those players just that bench looks stronger with a 12m left back, 4m, 31 year old international centre back etc. We know that at least 4 of them will be replaced this summer but Klopp isn't going to have 22 squad players of which he can only pick 17 or 18 or whatever it is now for match days because then he's leaving 4 out every week and he has a squad of 18 odd first team squad and if they get injured or suspended he has said before he wants a path for the youth players into first team so once there are injuries you're gonna see u23s on the bench. The more injuries the more u23s.
