And he still managed to get them through it? You are so fixated on 6 games when their whole season was in turmoil after Van Dijk's and Matips injuries yet Klopps coaching still had them finish 3rd. 

Here's a question. Explain to me how our midfield (which is arguably the highlight of our squad talent wise) has been fit and playing together all 7 months yet still look clueless playing with one another, and is an utter liability in both build up and defensive transition?

A better question is how do you think team escape good pressing team

If you say system you will lose 4-0 to Luton.

By definition a team can’t press all over the pitch and teams escape presses all the time through system, skill, power, pace or a combo. Leicester won the league with an average 45% possession 

you pick mudryck and Sterling and play Enzo deep with Caicedo chukwumeka is close but just in front. No 9 plays deep. The team plays compact defence for the first hour, mostly when we get the ball go long instantly down mudrycks wing. Only mudryck and Sterling chase  eventually defense tires and some gaps open up centrally for Caicedo to run through.

You can't escape press by lumping long ball to Mudryk and Sterling. That will be hilarious. You may as well just give the ball back to alisson.

Yes that’s what would mostly happen. It would still be preferable to what actually happened. And you only need to get lucky.

If you say to your player our game plan today is to kick long ball to Mudryk and Sterling, your player will think that you are crazy. 

 
Nice to see our ridiculous non penalties just being ignored as usual, MOTD giggling about them, the usual f**kwits in the media who cried like bitches when Arsenal got away with a handball at Liverpool literally not even mentioning ours. f**k em.

 
Media darlings that have just gone up a level in that field with Klopp packing his bags!

No two ways about it, they are winning the league this season, everyone else will make sure of it! Watch the same things happen when they play other teams this season!

 
We played like $h! T yet if this game is not at Anfield it could have easily end 3-3. We were denied two penalties, and jota did a block on Chilwell, that goal should be chalked off.

Silva, unfortunately is the only one that can steady the sinking ship at the back.  He see's and anticipates danger way before the youngsters do because of his years of experience, however his brain is faster than his legs and if we are completely honest he should have hung up his boots at this level a few years ago.  The back four this year was clearly destined to be James, Fofana, Colwill and Chillwell, with back ups of Gusto, Disais, Badashile, and Cucurella plus anyone else you want to add to the list, except that its all gone to rat sh*t with the injuries to James, Fofana, Chilwell, then injuries to Badashile and Cucurella and more recently Colwill , so who apart from Silva was going to be the glue to hold it together...because thank fkuc for Petrovic because if it wasn't for him and some resolute defending from Silva in recent games I doubt very much we would be mid-table...more like the relegation zone.   

The rest of the line up has been a mish mash and band aid solutions of talented young players who still can't play as a team, and still find no heart, desire or passion because they've never had to face adversity of this kind in their playing careers...they've stepped up with the big boys now...and they are lost and so is the manager.

While our rotten luck with injuries certainly played a big part in the way the season has played out so far, surely the lack of experieced well - established players should not be overlooked. It's absolutely criminal that we invested vast majority of transfer money into unproven young talent, most of them never tested in EPL. It's one thing when Boehly was doing his shopping tour the summer before last and people were mocking him over his lack of knowledge, but what excuse do Stewart and Winstanley have for concocting this mess? As much as I'd like to blame Poch for being spineless and tactically inept, he wasn't the one identifying and buying these players, although he isn't doing a good job currently of turning them into a competitive team.

That is unbelievably bad and inexcusable behaviour by our players and staff.  I really felt for that kid just left standing there wondering what the heck he should do. ☹️

Shameful, just add it to our players couldn't give a f**k list...

 
we all knew it

Disney+ are in advanced talks to buy the Liverpool documentary detailing Jurgen Klopp’s final six months at Anfield in a deal that will earn the club around £10million.

Mail Sport has learned that Amazon rejected the chance to buy the series before Klopp’s decision to leave in the summer was announced last week due to concerns about having limited access to the dressing room, while Netflix have also expressed reservations, leaving Disney as the front-runners. 

The project has also been pitched to Sky Sports and TNT Sport, although given those broadcasters’ primary focus is on live sport the asking price is understood to be considerably higher than their usual budget for documentaries.
