Jürgen Klopp

[-V-]

It's going to take time, transition yet again. Chelsea and City games were excellent but....

Klopp and the backroom team deserve to be slaughtered today. You can put newcastle down to a fluke but then West Brom and now Watford too!

This is the premier league, the hardest league in the world and they will need to grasp that quickly. They haven't been doing their homework on the opposition and its costing us.

Yes we have been unlucky with individual errors but tactically its been poor

I'm not sure how much you can blame Klopp for what happened. He came out with a team ready to attack and be creative. Almost all the players decided today was the day they would have their off day. And 'off day' is me being super polite.

I think he got his initial tactics wrong in both the West Brom and Watford games

We should never have played Benteke last week that was playing right into their hands. We should have started Origi and Ibe last week and even today we looked brighter when Origi came on

I think the lad has to start he's the only striker we have fit who has genuine pace and that's hugely important in today's game

Conceding as we did meant we never really got a chance to see if the tactics were right. I don't really disagree with you though, but I also don't think anyone should or will blame Klopp while he does learn about this league, and also because he's working with imperfect tools that aren't of his own choosing, was thrown in mid season to what was a bit of a mess, and has had to deal with a pretty unsettled squad due to injuries.

We'll probably go an beat Leicester next week now just to be random.

I am ok with the situation we will have ups and downs till he gets things organised and the players he wants

He's learning what these players can and can't do and at the same time he's learning what the opposition tactics are

Aye, me too

With Rodgers we kept making the excuse that he was still learning from his mistakes blah blah blah but with Klopp you genuinely feel he is. The last 3 games have been steep learning curves but you sense that he's picking up on the same issues that we're all discussing and that it will all look to be solved one way or another.

If possible, in January...

Rodgers shot himself in the foot by not signing players to solve the problems in his squad. Hopefully Klopp does.

[~LFCHistory~]

He can only do so much with a squad that has no strikers or GK's worth the name.



Also you can factor in that he's the latest Liverpool manager to be conned by the fraud that is Martin Skrtel. Like Rafa, Hodge, KD and Brendy he sees the shaved head and tattoos and thinks "damn, there's a tough, no nonsense street fighter to lead the defence and scare the opposition. Great !!"
Sadly the reality is that The Skirt is actually about as tough as Alan Carr.

[Fosterbloke]

The squad, which is not his, is clearly not good enough you cannot polish a turd.

There's one sitting at the top of the table right now. They were bottom this time last year.

We were excellent when Klopp got here, now we've reverted to type and we look **** again.

He is so honest ..

[Nicey]

Honestly he is the only thing postive about the club right now ... he is completely on the same hymn sheet as the fans .... we are all scratching our heads with these players

[Alex]

Kills the press with kindness. He is clearly a bit annoyed with them, but because he smiles while saying it they lap it up. Its brilliant.

[Nicey]

He seems like just a very honest reasonable down to earth guy ... the vibe I get from him is, look I will try and do my best for you ( Press) but hey lads lets be reasonable

It does not help that some of them are just distilled bellends

Klopp has what Rodgers never had; Previous success to back up his ideas & methods. I think that and his charisma will take him a long way here & make sure people don't get on his back too much early on.

I think until next season he is completely untouchable. By that I mean he can't really be criticised this season. He's got a squad of players and he's giving them all opportunities. It's down to them to perform & I think right now is about marking their cards. He needs to know who he can rely on & it's better he found out immediately than waited.

I know prior to coming in he said this squad was better than what was being suggested. I do wonder if he's starting to have a rethink. The mental strength displayed by most is worryingly low.
