[PL] Swansea (A): The Match

[Assassin]

Sturridge shaves the crossbar

He would be our pelanty taker today

[Tribute]

Sturridge looks like he can't be arsed, young lads finding it tough going. Exactly what Klopp didn't want is to use any more of the Thursday team today and risk injury... was likely hoping the youngsters and some senior heads like Skrtel could put on a decent showing. Swansea are hardly Barca but they look more up for it than we do and given the opportunity for people to stake a claim for Thursday, that's just ****...

That is easily the worst I've seen us play. We are shockingly bad.

[Exiled_red]

What happened to rossister? He had strength.

Injured, hamstring I think, happened a while back, don't know how close to a return he is.

[BobTheCharmer]

**** this, I'm going to get some ice cream

it's ****ing pissing it down here and ****ing cold. What I wouldn't do to swop places. Pistachio please.

[Maxiedge]

Feel sorry for Klopp...his hands are tied. The amount of injuries we have is ridic.

[Exiled_red]

Surely we have to make a couple of changes at half time

[ChesterDave]

Midfield is dreadful. Putting us under so much pressure. Sturridge getting very little service.

[BobTheCharmer]

Injured, hamstring I think, happened a while back, don't know how close to a return he is.

That was ages ago.

This isn't ground breaking news, but if you don't have any strength in this league playing central midfield you will be **** every single ****ing time.

Agreed.
I worry about Sturridge's body language and the youngsters are way out of their depth. I don't think Smith, Stewart and Chrivella are ever going to make it in the top flight. Ojo seems all over the place and Ibe is on the periphery.

We have zero leadership out there.

[Daffy Duck]

why would you let a meaningless game ruin your day?

I have no power over it. Unless I turn it off now, which I won't.

[Kenneth]

Feel sorry for Klopp...his hands are tied. The amount of injuries we have is ridic.

And the squad depth is so poor.

[Muddled]

Get Benteke on and let him battle Williams for the long ball we seemed insistent on hitting in the first 20 minutes. Get Lucas alongside Stewart to guide him through the game and let's try and get Ibe and Ojo to at least stretch the game.

[redmike65]

Ojo should be out on the right wing, and stay there. That he isn't is presumably Klopp's thinking. Anyway Benteke will be on for the second half I'd say plus Lallana so Ojo and one of Sturidge/Coutinho will go off probably.
