He’s so good, hope he never leaves

[Irishnev]

I absolutely love him but he’s as culpable as the players this season - looking bemused on the sideline as he rolls the same lads out and they do the same ****e things is getting infuriating. Him and his back room team have not shown anything to address the rot.

He’s earned the right to try to fix it but I’m not sure he can

Agree with all of this save for the last part of the last sentence. I think he is good enough to fix it but that he needs the energy/challenge of having fresh clay to mold so to speak.

I have little doubt that he sees what we can see and then some. However there are certain players within our squad that we either do not have proper replacements for right now or the replacements are out injured.

Stick a few want to win at all cost characters into our squad and I could see Klopp looking to build around those with the do or die attitudes as he has done in the past.

Right now I reckon a few wells of reserve, physical and mental, have run dry and that we (and Klopp) are stuck with that until the summer.

If FSG bottle the transfer budget, there’s **** all reason for him sticking around. He needs proper financial support to rebuild this ****. If he doesn’t get it, he should walk.. anyone would. It would be impossible to mount a title challenge against state and oil money…

[baitman]

We all know we need better players, some midfielders who can run around a bit and dominate the game. We blame fsg for not providing funds, etc.
But klopp...
How can he stand by and watch these dead beats give **** all.
Trent has been ****e for over 12 mnths, has he got pics of klopp and the tea ladys, just drop him ffs! I don't care who you replace him with. It's now anyone but trent...
There is a serious management issue.
Stop playing henderson. Teach fabinho how to tackle again.
I saw klopp saying this has been going on too long and it has to change, so why has it been going on so long and why hasn't he changed it...
It's getting to the point where he is waffling and blowing smoke up our arses.

Its a bigger job this summer than it was when he took over. from non believers to mentality monsters, then back down again.

The feel good factor seems to have gone. Remember the good old days of the club releasing all those videos and it seemed such a tight knit group, I wonder if some of the departures were big voices in the dressing room and voids have been left

Who knows, but the manager is the motivator and he’s not succeeding at it very well.

[vlahka]

You think theres a transfer budget. It'll probably be sell to buy.

[Doc_Piptorious]

You think theres a transfer budget. It'll probably be sell to buy.

Salah to PSG for 100 million

TAA to PSG or City for 130 million

Jota for 60m

Matip for 15m

Phillips for three pounds and sixty seven pence.

Fabinho back to Monaco for 30m.


Then Keita, Firmino, Chamberlain and Milner all off the wage bill.

Then take the 335m, add in whatever the transfer kitty is to it and get Kone, Thuram, Adyemi, N'Dicka (free), Gusto, Aouar, Klostermann and Tonali. Should be something left over for another player or two.

Start next season with Diaz, Nunez and Adyemi up front.


In midfield we have Thuram, Tonali and Kone waiting to do battle with fools.

Klostermann (Hakimi is off my RB wish list due to being a rapey scumbag--allegedly) becomes our new high energy really quick big ******* right back.

Gusto is the back up right back or Timber is we can get him.

N'Dicka replaces Matip and is there to challenge for a starting berth at CB and at worst is the third choice CB.

Aouar is there with Thiago, Henderson and Bajcetic as the CM back ups.


And we use the £3.67 to get some wine gums.


Easy this transfer lark.

In other news, PL clubs spent a third of a billion least year on agent fees

[el matador]

I sincerely hope kloppo is given the funds to rebuild this ****show next season. Three first choice midfield players and a right back are a must. A central defender would also be helpful for next season.

“Stop playing Henderson” - he had done- Bajcetic was keeping him out of the team, but is injured now. So is Thiago, so is Keita. Who should he have started in midfield today?

I’m not saying klopp can’t be criticized/questioned, but he’s the best thing we have going for us, at the club. If he needs to start from scratch and said look it will take another 4/5 years til we’re back challenging, I would want us to stick with him.

I get all that, I know our available first team is not very good, with too many players who can’t do it anymore and others that don’t have the experience, but we’re consistently less than the sum of our parts. Klopp is obviously getting pissed at some individuals, listening to his post match, passing is atrocious, we try and play out from the back but can’t, we just keep sticking to our pretty rigid 4-4-3 and bemoaning the fact that the team know what they need to do but aren’t.

Even if it is largely personnel related, surely doing what’s need to get the best out of this group this season is necessary, and this can’t be the best way. The idea that there’s one way to play, and until we get the players that make it work we’re going to be ****, well that can’t be rational can it?

I think this 100%… but then I was ‘do they/he think by changing things for the last ten games of the season, does that take even longer to unravel in summer and get us back to playing in the right formation again?’

I keep coming back to the idea that we should just do what’s needed to have a good go for fourth… as some of this team won’t be here after summer anyway, so any new additions will need to learn the system anyway….

Either way, it’s just a frustrating cluster****, a perfect storm of all the ****e things happening at the same time.
