Klopp: It makes no sense to add more players to the squad

I see we've arrived at the annual TLW foam party.  

 

Klopp's fuming, he's ready to leave because he can't have money etc 

 

Unlike many on here, Klopp is a fully functioning adult who understands the realities of managing LFC before he took the job - he won't be screaming blue murder and throwing his toys out of the pram, he'll be busy planning for the season.  There's no danger of Klopp leaving in a huff because he can't replace Origi.  He's a grown up for fuck's sake.

The only one in a huff is you lad.

He seems to prefer to work with a tight squad and doesn't seem to like too many players hanging around not playing regularly , so no real surprises he is looking at a one in - one out system.

Talking sense as always Roger. He said it was very difficult to keep 4 very good centre backs happy the season before Degsy left. He doesnt like big squads.

 

I think areas we need to improve is scoring from dead ball situations around the box and corners. Trent takes all our free kicks in such areas but last season many of them flew over the bar never mind made the keeper work. van Dijk, Matip and Gomez dont score enough from corners either in my opinion.

 

Jurgen comes out and says what he does and some folk are still unhappy at it all.

I feel for our fringe players tbh.

With the ressies (correctly) being used as a vehicle to educate our kids it means that when our fringe players do get a chance then they don't look sharp. No game time anywhere, no minutes in their legs.

Bring back the Central League, I say!

 

Yes, it's a good point. Although you can play upto 3 over age players in the U23s, Id expect our fringe squad players see it as beneath them to turn out for the U23s and knock off a bit of rustiness?

We do not want more players. If something happens somewhere, something can happen somewhere else, but it makes no sense to add more players.”

 

This is the only part of that interview that matters, and it's been obvious since it was established that we need to sell for 3 reasons:

 

1 we have too many forgeiners (transfer committee)

2 we have a growing wage bill and no additional investment to cover it (FSG)

3 we don't want more than 2 established players for each position (Klopp)

 

It doesn't matter which is more prevalent, the fact is they work as a group, and that's how they want to work.

Imagine a player got injured in a U23 game though.

 

People went mental that Jota played in a dead rubber CL game and got injured despite it being the type of game he should be playing in as a rotational player. 

He wasn't a rotational player then. He'd just about got Bobby out the team. Salah also started. It was mental.

they think it's a conspiracy and Jurgen is forced to say all of these things even if he doesn't believe them.  Because he was taken in by lots of false promises and the nasty owners hoodwinked him and they're really despicable human beings who have taken his dreams away.

On that subject has Gomez ever scored for us? 

 

People read too much into Klopp's every word without taking into account he needs to toe the party line to an extent, keep his cards close to his chest and maintain existing squad morale. OK he's not one to lie but he is also not one to be vague and leave cryptic hints.

Dont agree with you about him tippy toeing the party line. He didnt hold back over the Euro League which was very much Henry's ownership.
