We need to fundamentally change the way we play.  We don’t create chances anymore because we just continually do the same thing and it just no longer works.  We watch the same game every single week.  Everything is so predictable.  The quality of opposition literally just doesn’t matter because it’s so easy to play against us.  Van Dijk and the other centre backs coming back isn’t going to change it.  We just don’t get to the byline and that’s the bottom line for me.  We can’t break sides down anymore with cute bits of passing and dribbling around the box.  It just doesn’t work.

If there’s any good news, it’s that even with a fallow FSG summer special, as long as they don’t decide they need a scapegoat and sack Klopp, there’s a good chance we’ll be able finish fourth next season. City, Chelsea and United as the top three by miles is starting to look like a foregone conclusion given what they’ll spend, but I’d favour us to be the best of the rest as long as don’t actively weaken the squad as a result of missing out this time around.

Well I think questions need to be asked now. Our league position isn't going to be pretty. What, 8th at best. Klopps position will be under threat if the owners don't take into account the factors of this season. 

Get a grip of yourself.

5 losses on bounce in league at Anfield for first time in our history.

Absolutely fucking abysmal.

 

Excuses about how many players missing/centre half crisis are all well and good, but that is fucking disgusting.

 

We are rudderless, aimless, spineless and frankly look like we have totally run out of ideas at home.

 

1 effort on target tonight and that was tame.

 

Same stuff, same result so far.
 
High line like we have Gomez and VVD playing is getting exposed again at will.
 
Same old problems all over and nothing being done to change them.
 
Surely Klopp can see the issues like we can and if he does, why does he do nothing about them?
 
Has done the same thing game after game, after game and it’s the same shite result.
 
We can't play how we do with Gomez and VVD in and with our proper midfield defensively or in terms of how we go other way...so do something different that suits players we have available and playing.....its becoming embarrassing and looks like a real blind spot.
 
It is like we are putting out a team and hoping for best when we all know it can't work how hope it will.
 
What is midfield set up is or what is it meant to be doing?
 
They offer no protection whatsoever, nothing creative, they don’t move the ball forwards, they don’t close down and support a press. I have no idea what they do or are supposed to do....it is aimless and totally ineffective.

 

Full blown crisis now, and deeply fucking depressing - we keep doing the same thing, getting the same results and nothing new is being tried to change it.

 

It's fucking terrible.

Yep, we hardly ever turn the defence these days. But when teams can sit 5 men 15 yards from their goal line and still expect to score because both our midfield and defence are decimated, it makes it pretty hard.

 

Quality goal from Mount. Glad to see Fabinho get through 90.

Something is really wrong and I don’t know  what we can do. Nightmare season.

Burnt out by the looks of things. Starting to doubt even with Virg we would have been much better, The whole team is running on fumes.

Neither do the management team by the looks of it. In all seriousness is it tactical, have the players stopped playing, is it injuries, no crowds, tiredness.
