Is it safe to come out yet? - by John Brennan

[magicrat]

I named the signings and pointed out that it was not enough. Did you miss that bit?

 

Was I having a pop at you ?  In fact my post complimented yours, 

No offence intended 

[magicrat]

The concerns about the defence and the need of another signing or two are obvious points that practically everyone has made. It's the snide stuff against the manager that rankles with me, as well as the lack of fairness about the progress the team as a whole is making under Klopp, as evidenced by CL qualification when 6th-8th was becoming the norm. It seems unsporting to me, and it's cheap to say stuff like "Cheerleader in Chief."

 

Austrian Dressage Pony was my particular favourite !

I don't believe people have lost faith in Klopp but wrapping him in cotton wool is not the answer, He deserves to be criticised , not abused, for his failure to deal with the defence in just the same way he gets praise for bring in players like Mane and now Salah,  telling us we have 2 good keepers and individual defenders are not the problem flies in the face of reality and as I said earlier I want him to cut this out , We will never make real progress as a team until we stop opponents scoring at will. Finishing 4th last season by the skin of our teeth was the very least that could be expected given we had no European commitments and made little showing in the domestic cups

Yeah - my bad. It is so frustrating. I've always been of the opinion that you sort the base out first.

Flaws or not I still think we're a very good team and a on a good path with a top class manager.

 

All it is for me.

we have a very good team and manager but I think we're most likely on the path to 5th/6th and back to Euro for next season. That's going backwards.

I don't think we are personally. And if we do then so be it. We could finish 5th with 77 points which would be more than we got last year. That isn't going backwards.

Finishing out of the CL is going backwards. Even by FSG's standards.

I bet Brennan thought replacing Benitez with Hodgson was a good idea.

 

And voted for Brexit.

 

I can smell it.

Reading this article reminds me of going for a pint with my dad

He's got some good points and he's not daft and I love him dearly but he seems to have forgoten that it's not the 20th century anymore and people like Farage and Johnson aren't your friends they're the enemy and every time they open their mouth they lie

[s(k)aturation]

I quite like the fact that my Dad has forgotten it's not the 20th century anymore.

 

Among other things, it's a good laugh.

[Hades]

Because someone wrote an article you disagree with? 

 

I've got enough misery in my life. A few more humourous, light-hearted articles wouldn't go astray.

[s(k)aturation]

I thought it was humorous in places.

you have no qualms about bringing misery to everyone on here.

Never unprovoked though, there's a subtle but important difference.

Misery isn't provokable, at least in the TLW sense.  It comes from within.  To be fair, you are quite witty on occasion as well.

 These days unfortunately, its all down to profit from TV rights etc. Trophies just don't seem to really matter.

Klopp out!!

Klopp out!!

Nice.

[Mr T]

He's nailed it unfortunately. Klopp is going to have a painful few months.

 

We've fucked ourselves for the season again.

[ngogswilly]

Seriously worried we're in bother here. We just won't keep enough clean sheets to be a team to do much this season. Not sure what to make of it all.

If the "three corners equals a penalty" rule is applied for the rest of the season we'll be in with a shot I reckon. We'd concede less and score two more a game.

What after 5 games?

[Numero Veinticinco]

What after 5 games?

It’s a wonder it has taken this long. Sure, we’ve lost once this season but it’s Sky generation, oil money bollocks. I hated that as much as anybody but calling for Klopp’s head is bratty.
