Bogdan should start and get a shout. You can't come back at this level anymore from goal keeping howlers like that and how long have we seen it Mignolet the shot stopper? Sooner or later he starts flapping and this is the result.
It's a strange season and home or not, a draw against that lot (Arsenal lost against them FFS) is not the end of the world.
We need a couple of January players nothing more and we'll be set to give it a right good go. Problem is availability.

...And that Leicester, Arsenal and City all seem to be disappearing in the horizon!
Only Manure left to beat into top 4. Spuds are also in the same situation as us, so there are at least 3 teams trying to force into that last spot - if you count us in there!

Regarding the OP, I think saying the Honeymoon period is over is a load of Bolx. The man was handed a team that he did not build and was struggling, and he's managed pretty well. Only 2 losses, ffs.
If he gets top4 or a trophy this year, it's a bonus as far as I'm concerned. You can't really expect that before he's even had a preseason to establish himself or recruit his own players.

Very correct. I wouldn't necessarily say that a trophy or a top4 finish are required. I'd be happy just to finish higher in the league than we did last year.

Therein lies the problem....happy with mediocrity. Wrt honeymoon period....bar city chavs and soton games weve been crrap. I firmly believe klopp will win us a league but why not say it as it is. Were muck of late and that high press high intensity gung ho stuff has died already. Hopefully its just due to number of games but successful teams play lots of games so we'd better get used to it ( I hope)

I'd agree but with the way everyone is dropping points and there being no stand out teams this year, apart from Leicester of course we need to really push for a top 4 position. Any trophy would be an added bonus but we have a good opportunity to win at least one surely!

Maybe it was impossible to get him in at that time?
He has stated he wanted a time off after Dortmund.
Or maybe - more likely even - FSG understood they had to come back with a better offer for him after 8 games and the growing BR shambles?

It's not about settling for mediocrity; it's about wanting sustainable and constant progress with a realistic target of success a few years down the line.
By all means, you can hope for a title challenge every year, but you'll be bitterly dissppointed and disenchanted whilst giving LFC fans a reputation of living in the past.
