So the key to getting the best out of Minamino is to actually play him. Useful information for our management team.

 

He had chances here but never really looked good enough. He struggled against the Villa under 18s team in the FA cup a few weeks ago. 

[The Guest]

You can guarantee that had the ref spotted it was the Newcastle player already on a yellow that did that foul he wouldn’t have give him a second booking.  As he had already given it to the other player and VAR was there to correct him he had to send him off then.

[Herp McDerp]

Ward-Prowse's free kicks are practically a cheat code at this point. Must be nice having a dead ball specialist in your team.

[El Rojo]

I’m stuck between wanting to see Minamino do well but also seeing Southampton losing every game after allowing themselves to be beat 9-0 in midweek.

I love Jurgen, but he definitely has weaknesses and one of them is a lack of flexibility.

 

I mean you only need look at our squad. He only ever plays players outside of his core 11, if he absolutely must. And we always play the same way.

 

I know that sounds a tad ungrateful considering what he has brought us, but in this league we won't be given the freedom to dominate. Every team hates our guts. Every manager, due to either rivalry or coming from a generation where we won everything, is out to get us. 

 

We need to be able to change and adapt. Sides have figured us out, so what are WE gonna do about it?

 

I think Minamino is a good player but he needs to be in the right set up. Not shoehorned into a position where he is not suited. Not played in his proper position but surrounded by kids and fringe players. he needs integrating, and Jurgen doesn't do a lot of integration, say the way City would do. I think even United use rotation better so the all round squad is more cohesive.

 

I mean on wednesday he had Shaq on the fucking left of midfield with Robertson and he shifted Thiago back again after witnessing a formation that worked three days previous.

Oh do fuck off, If Klopp decided to change things, integrate players, rotate more, you’d still be on here fucking moaning. It’s almost like our main 3 CDs are out for the season, we buy a 2nd choice LB to give Robbo a rest, he’s been out most of the season, buy an attacker to rotate the front 3? He’s been out for 3 months. So who do you suggest we rotate? And for whom? Minimino, apart from the Palace game, was getting plenty questions asked of him when he started too, so how would you accommodate him? No10? Left? Right? Shaq played 
Sides have figured us out? More like teams can smell blood given our injuries & loss of form. Pretty sure they’d have worked that out the last season or 2  but they couldn’t stop us. I wonder what’s  different? Fucking injuries, best mids having to fill in Def, a ridiculous schedule, player fatigue & not being able  to do as much rotation as we’d like because of said injuries?

Newcastle already down to 10 will be down to 9 here when this lad goes off on a stretcher. It's that Schar who was a cheating prick against us so fuck him. 

[Megadrive Man]

Its staggering that we've dropped points against Southampton and Newcastle this season.

And I'm sitting here wondering just how shit we really are that we keep throwing points away against bang average teams. Hell calling some of these teams bang average is an insult to the term.

[3 Stacks]

To be fair to Minamino, and he's been shite as well anyway, but I wouldn't say our formation, shape and attacking patterns particularly suit him. 

[Herp McDerp]

So leaving aside their cup matches that's 5 losses in a row since their last win. Which just so happened to be against us. This shit is absolutely infuriating, and the first muppet that trots out the 'teams only try against us' bullshit is getting backheeled in the bollocks, cringeworthy behaviour that.

It’s because we’ve been found out, Klopp is too stubborn to change things because he’s got his favourites, he doesn’t ‘integrate’ enough players, not like City do.......or something like that.

That’s a very painful read.

Southampton on for their FIFTH straight league defeat since beating us, conceding 17 goals on the way. 

We broke them. 

 

Good goal from Mini. If he'd been in that position for us there'd have been six not three defenders in the box.

Can she guarantee goals against shite sides? Can she break down Fat Sam's WBA?

[Strontium]

Unlikely that he'd have ever been in that position for us, facing forwards with a ball for him to run onto, as we always seemed to require him to receive the ball to feet with his back to goal.

Klopp and his coaches need to change things up we are predictable beyond belief. Liverpool will come with a high line look for an opening for 90 minutes by passing it side to side and whip in numerous crosses to nobody in the box. Weve watched this time after time and its like we're completely oblivious to it. The away results and results against the bottom 6 aren't some quirk of bad luck its bad play. Some players need to take blame for basic poor play be it technically or just not thinking and so does Klopp for his mistakes too. Nobody is above criticism, these lads and the manager are way beyond abuse they've earnt respect but this poor form, the away form especially and results against the shite sides just hasn't been good enough, regardless of who has been out because whats left has still been far better than the opposition man for man. Its frustrating.

Never a fucking red card.

 

There's just no common sense in football officials any more.

[Marko121]

So, Soucek gets sent off and Fulham can’t have the free kick cos the ball wasn’t in play? 
 

Pickford couldn’t be punished as the ball wasn’t in play? 

[Captain Howdy]

I know it’s become a mantra but they really are destroying the sport. They are so incompetent it’s barely believable. It needs a roots and branch overhaul
