Jordon Ibe

If it was the training then wouldn't the injuries be happening in training,also the time they are getting the hamstring injury in the game they should be well warmed up?

[danperkins]

Definitely a Rodgers voodoo, only explanation.

[DeanoUK]

Parry out!

[Slinky Skills]

It has to be the training surely? Quite incredible, how unfit where all these ****ers!?

You'd be surprised.

Agreed

We have had injuries and the squad has been stretched. Players have probably been playing more than they should, and that is putting pressure on them

I am going to put it down to cumulative bad luck or a curse by Brendan

Quite an apt choice of words in this situation.

Well before the games, Klopp has been spotted taking a keen interest in opposition team's warm up routines.

[vlahka]

Our clubs a special kind of snowflake.

[BobTheCharmer]

He plays like he left his brain at home. Can't pass for **** and takes the wrong option when dribbling every single time. He has the physique to be good lets just hope its inexperience at this stage. I would love to be wrong about him.

[Gray]

Unfortunately I think you're spot on. He's dumb as ****

Yep, headless chicken.
and to make matters worse defenders just ease him out wide and this kills his ability to make an early cross. Im not sure if he is just relishing his time on the ball a bit too much and isnt in a rush to make a pass... playing for himself and not team mates. lallana is also a.little bit guilty of this.
maybe ibe is looking at the way sterling got himself so much attention and be fancies being in the spotlight. So wasteful, greedy.

His decision making is generally poor and he doesn't seem to learn within the context of the game. Last night he seemed to try the same thing, with little to no success, time and time again, when a more experienced and canny player would have tried a variety of things to get the better of the fullback.

We've always had a tendency to compare him with Sterling, at the moment he's coming up short, he doesn't have Raheem's electric pace over the first 4 or 5 yards to take him away from a marker and he doesn't appear to have the same ability to manipulate the ball either.

That said, he's just turned 20 and has bags of potential - he can be bullish, direct, very fast when he's up to speed, and can finish. He needs to work on his decision making, crossing (especially looking for that early ball which he just doesn't play), and I'd like to see him work on a "trick" just something to give him an extra yard of space.

As a club we need to give him lots of minutes on the pitch so he grows and learns.

[baitman]

He looked **** hot when on loan at derby. Iirc he was mostly played on the left allowing him to cut inside on his stronger right side.

[Shaggy]

He's only been 20 for about a month.

He has loads of work to do but I wouldn't be too harsh on him he's very young and inexperienced in the senior game. The crowd getting on his back after a few misplaced passes won't have helped.

i kicked off with a few around me about that last night.

For me, he is a young lad that needs patience and support. In an ideal world he would be being introduced / managed in a team that has leaders to help him along during games. When Sterling came through, then having Gerrard, Suarez and Sterling during games to help him along will have helped massively.

He just needs confidence. There was an instance last night where he took a terrible corner but we somehow managed to get another one. Ibe walked away from it and Firmino had to walk over to take the corner.

I think though that Klopp will make a good player out of him.

[Exiled_red]

He's still really young and truth be told he's in a poor side. When Sterling came through he had Suarez and Sturridge on the end of his chances, if you are putting balls in and players are scoring goals from them that has to give you confidence, even if you are sticking balls in and the player misses them or the keeper saves it or whatever that has to boost your confidence.

With Ibe he doesn't always get it right but even when he does there isn't always someone there. Just look at the ball he plays across the 6 yard box and Benteke is ~15 yards out. Ibe does exactly the right thing there IMO, but he gets no pay off from it because Benteke is standing 10 yards back, if he wants to get his rewards from Benteke putting the ball in the net he is probably going to have to stop doing the right things which isn't going to be good for his long term development.
