( the only ? ) instances where Jurgen got it wrong and got lucky , and most fans had it right earlier 

 

There was no way he had any intention of giving Robbo a decent crack until Skater Boi got injured.

I hope he gets more stuff wrong at that rate.

The first 15 pages of this thread make a brilliant read. So good.

Hah.  Some textbook twattery on display.  @Mascherano oh dear.

I think it's fairly obvious that Robertson is just a stopgap

Tell you what, the next fella better be amazing.

I think you’ve got that wrong Rog.  He gave him a go against Palace at home and he was probably man of the match.  He was always going to get a run at some point.  He will have seen his potential.  He wasn’t playing to start with because Moreno started that season really well and didn’t put a foot wrong.  Klopp clearly didn’t want to rock the boat.  I think it was Moreno’s position to lose and he was probably in his best run of form at the club.  As fans we’d seen years of his shite and knew he needed fucking off but that’s not how Klopp manages.  We seen a similar thing with Ox and even the Mignolet/Karius situation when Karius first arrived but Mig regained his number one spot for a while.

This is right. Klopp almost never drops anyone in form.

Relentless negativity from Moof.

Not that impressed yet, especially when you consider how much man city pay for their left backs. Get rid and spend big. Folly trying to buy cheap and build a player, plus he's from Hull for fucks sake, who got relegated. 

It’s easy going to the first few pages.  The real MVP’s go deep in the game.

I allowed myself to become influenced by the drama quilts. I’ll be disappointed when I look back

Cheers for the response TG .

 

I thought Moreno was better than usual but feel ' not putting a foot wrong ' is an exaggeration and remember him being pretty ordinary against Watford, Spurs , Man City and Leicester ( I'm sure there were others ). Robbo's excellent Palace performance apparently made no difference to his prospects and Moreno got 21 of 24 starts until his injury that season. 

 

I love Jurgen and only highlighted this as it was so unusual , but I don't think he had realised Robbo's potential talent and I seem to remember him getting a bit snippy when people asked him about the situation ( He wasn't getting on the bench that much either as he only covered one position ) . I don't think there is any evidence that he was going to give Andy any more playing time in the second half of that season than he had been getting, before Moreno's injury changed everything , thank goodness.

Spotted this yesterday on Twitter after our win. Didn't really check Twitter after the Barca game.

 

I know Virg has been boss this season, but Robbo is not far behind.

[Red74]

What a player. Truly world class 

[Numero Veinticinco]

Yeah, Robbo is actually underrated at this point. I think he's the best Left Back I the world, and that's me playing it down. I fucking love him. 

[Tj hooker]

Thought he was brilliant last night 

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Like some say, he’s not far behind Van Dijk as player of the season.

 

Last night he looked like he could’ve kept running like a madman for another full 90 if required. Unbelievable.

He was actually sensational in my opinion. Whereas Big Virge leads by presence and stature,Robbo leads by example. We do have a side with many captains and I think this is why Jurgen doesn't over egg the pudding with the actual captain thing.

[El Rojo]

Remarkable footballer. Christ.

No need to call Hendo a pudding, mate.

8 million.

Was thinning the same thing during yesterday’s game. If it weren’t for Virgil he would be a shoe in for player of the season. It’s almost inconceivable just how good he is

He, Alisson, and VVD are fucking monumental. TAA is obviously exceptional going forward and good but not great at the back. Hopefully Gomez comes back in at CB. Matip has been legit too. Lovren is wank, but we are looking good at the back.

Matip ‘legit’, whilst Lovren ‘wank’? Have you forgotten the CL final where he was our best defender and arguably MoM. Whilst Matip has been decent, Lovren’s ceiling is far higher IMO.

[Pidge]

Bale was Man of the Match, how can there possibly be any argument there?

Self parody is best left to the real experts like Tony Moanero.
