Liverpool Post Match Thread

I am not sure that there is anything more to Klopp than press press press.

There isn't - but when his players are still willing to run for him, you have to at least match it or you will get slaughtered, as we did. For 20 mins after half time we gave them a bit of their own medicine and they looked shaky, but we were unable or unwilling to keep it up any longer.

Hard work beats talent unless the talent works hard, and we were really not up for working yesterday. I honestly don't think we're a great team, and most teams outwork us, we just have some individually brilliant players. Unfortunately due to crap lineups and injuries, our frailties were exposed big time.

They've struggled in other games but played exactly the same way. I am not a big fan of the Klopp style and I don't think he will succeed at Liverpool because most managers will react and respond to their style. We were chasing the game of course they were creating better chances. Pellegrini got his tactics wrong and his starting line up wrong. The only thing I will say in his defence is that he did change it at half time, and in previous games he had shown some recognition of the limitation of Toure.

And the changes made zero difference other than making us look like we wouldn't score.

He should have changed it after 25
Mins we were that bad.

Klopp owned him yesterday. We are stuck with him now though so have to hope he sorts this out because 11 points out of 24 is wank!

Any side would miss 3 world class players especially in each area of the pitch ...we WILL still go on to win the leeg

Yeah Liverpool were missing ten. Still wiped the floor with City, because their manager respected the opposition, the league, & the fans wishes & desire to win this game.

Ours is interested in protecting his own arse by topping the Champions League group & the game, the league & the fans can all just fuck off if they get in his way.

Either that or he's just a fucking clown who is taking us all for a ride.

Nobody who has ever seen a Klopp team play, would pick that City 11. Pellegrini says he would do it again. That means either he would do it again because he is prioritising the champs lg, or he would do it again because he thinks it's the best use of our squad for that game.

Either option stinks.
 
3 wins in last 8 league games now & they were all at home against Norwich, Bournemouth & Newcastle. 11 points from last 24 is not title winning form. The momentum from the 5 straight wins at the start of the season has been well & truly lost.
 
My biggest worry if Pellegrini is still here next season is Aguero, he will not want to stay here if we don't improve, yesterday showed that the engineer built ladas not ferraris, I've not seen any tactical genius apart from maybe the Seville game away, so in two seasons he's got it right once. This season we've had a few close calls and managed to get across the line, yesterday showed when he comes up against someone better than him he has no answers tactically and no balls to drop certain players.

That's poor reading. We're lucky Chelsea are shite and Leicester/Vardy are doing the business, otherwise we'd be getting fucking slaughtered in the press.

Klopp gets his teams reasonably well organised & balanced then makes them run their balls off pressing. Then that's it.

If the opposition can't deal with it he wins. If they set up to play against it, he struggles. Rodgers played exactly like Klopp when Liverpool were at their best. Paln A: run like fuck until your legs give in hope you score. Plan B: lose.

Pellegrini just walks head first into it. Arsenal will play in a similar but not quite so energetic manner. But with better players. If Pellegrini decides to be a manager for the day ,we will beat them. If he decides to be a stubborn stupid old ****, we will get fucking mullered worse than yesterday.
