    Correct me if I’m wrong but aren’t Liverpool the third highest spenders in Premier League history?

    Just touching on Klopp, he has only had 1 summer to buy players. You can’t go out and buy 10 new players in one window. I’m sure he will build his own team (not the team he inherited) over the next 2 years.

    His downfall is not buying a proper striker and a decent GK.

    If Liverpool can get Hart (he’s not amazing but better than what they have currently) then that’s a step in the right direction. As well as a GK they need a CB to compete with Matip and Lovren.

    Amz, Chelsea, Man City and Man Utd are bound to be the top 3 spenders in the PL? I would think Liverpool are 4th.

    My worry is we played 3 teams in the space of a week who sll used the same tactics and we were beaten. It’s absolutely criminal that we conceded three breakaway goals in 3 games. Klopp has done nothing at Liverpool yet some really think he is the messiah. I like the man but he will deserve legendary status when he does something legendary. He got it totally wrong the last three games. He has to shoulder the blame.

    We used the sabe tactics. Pass, pass then mistake. As good as we were to watch a month ago, it’s absolutely horrible to watch now. Terrible at the back and boring going forward. I just don’t get why we haven’t signed more players. Majority of klopp steam are Rodgers players. I’ve seen us capitulate so many times that this no suprise. People going way overboard in October.

    I want klopp to stay for a longtime but he should not be immune to criticism. Some players are badly out of form and so is the manager.

    Amz, our problems are in defence not upfront.

    Shanks, I believe the problems are all over the team. We didn’t have one shot in target in the 1st half yday. We created a few chance v Southampton but we are no were near creative as we were.its so easy to set up against us.

    Shanks you don’t have a striker that can create something out of nothing and turn a game on its head.

    Problem is that managers get no time at all these days (unless you’re the Arsenal manager, of course). I rate Klopp very highly and would love him at my club and as long as he didn’t get us relegated, he’d get the time to put his own team together.

    Imagine how long a young Alex Ferguson would last at Man U today – probably not even a season. It’s instant success or you’re out.

    Besides which, if ‘Pool get three points against Chelski, those cup defeats will be quickly forgotten.

    Top 4 is Liverpool priority, they need a good left back, a top CB to partner Matic, top class dominating central midfielder to partner Wijnaldum, 2 support wingers.

    I hate when fans start taunting others. Liverpool have been and will be a great club. and the fact that they lost to Wolves doesn’t make them a bad club. Chelsea lost to Bradford City in 2015 FA cup, United lost to a third tier Leeds in 2010, several teams lost to second or third tier teams.

    Personally i’m more worried about facing Liverpool than ever before. they are a wounded animal right now. i remember a time last season when we couldn’t win a game, and suddenly we beat Arsenal 2-0. i don’t think it will be a walk over as some may be suggesting. we should be prepared for the game of our lives.

    Klopp is a dream manager for every football fan. look at Guardiola and Mourinho and how many points is he ahead of them while they outspent him? imagine if Klopp had the rescources that Pep and Mourinho has? imagine if Klopp can afford to buy a £89m player? or if he can go and bid for the likes of Griezmann? sometimes you need to appreciate your rivals however way you hate them. the work Klopp has done is commendable.

    Amz, that’s why we have the front three of Mane, Coutinho and Firmino mate. When was the last time all three played together? Way before this collapse. Sturridge is a game changer but doesn’t fit in with Klopp’s style and is in a shocking dip of form. Our defence is the real problem as seen in the Bournemouth and Swansea games. Without Matip we are shocking with him we are no better than ok but that’s because we need another top CB and a proper LB, though Milner has been excellent. You’re right Sean re our attempts but with our first choice front three that changes dramatically. Studge and Origi simply don’t cut it.

    Shanksy while Milner is a decent left back, surely another probably of yours is how narrow you are? You would want a left footed left back to provide you some good width with a decent left foot. Maybe switch Milner to RB and get a left back? Klavan was a shocking buy, no idea what went through Klopps head there! Still think you need an actual striker and not a false nine type in Firminho – just to have a different plan of attack

    A manager is only as good as the team he fields and here lays the problem as Liverpool obviously do have a few top notch players but generally lack sufficient depth, I am sure the owners would bring in a couple of decent signings but so far it has not happened, dont know why?

    When Souness did a combined Utd and Liverpool 11 didn’t he have 7 Liverpool players and only 4 Utd players?

    That just shows that both teams are lumbered with a lot of bang average players, especially defensively and midfield.

    Souness was a great player for a Spud reject, but he hardly pulled up trees as a manager. I wouldn’t use his comments as gospal… 🙂

    Spot on Johnny we’ve been punching above our weight now Utd are doing the same. Funny people forget how shite they were earlier in the season. You’re right amz whilst Milner has filled in better than anyone thought we are crying out for a proper LB and a proper CB to partner Matip because Lovren is muck. Klavan was a stop gap signing and always meant as back up. Unfortunately injury and incompetence from FIFA has seen Klavan play more games than Klopp would have wanted. Mind you for two pretty average CBs they did very little wrong at OT.

    shanksy – you’re right about injuries and fifa incompetence but klopps poor management of sakho could have really helped liverpool the last month or so.

    Klopp has a worse win rate at Liverpool than Moyes did at Utd yet Liverpool created a sarcastic banner reading “David Moyes is a football genius”.

    Did Moyes have a better squad at Utd than Klopp does at Liverpool?
    How many players at Liverpool want to play for Klopp compared to the number of players who didn’t want to play for Moyes?

    Klopp needs to be given time and money to make the team his own. Matip, Mane and Wijnaldum have been good signings.

    I still think though that no Europe and now no domestic cups competitions dictate that top 4 is a must.
