I was so pleased to see JK getting rattled annoyed and criticising his team for not giving 100% in the post match interview yesterday.
The honeymoon is officially over now, so you bunch of bone idle lazy couldn't give a sh1t money grabbing mercenaries can take that as a last chance warning hopefully.....buckle down and play as everyone knows you could if only you tried, or GET THE FCK OUT OF HERE.....NOW!

Didn't we all just know that Andy C was going to score against us yesterday btw?
Don't blame him for looking so pleased about it either tbh.

I'm surprised no one has asked why we let him go yet?

It's interesting that Rodgers reason for selling Carroll was that we won't be playing football suited to him, then he signs Ricky Lambert and Christian Benteke who are similar players surely?

Strange

I'd say Benteke is different in the respect he's not just a target man. He seems much better with the ball at his feet (or did at Villa anyway). Same with Lambert where as Carroll is just a target man for me.

Excellent player....when not injured...another sick note like Sturridge unfortunately.

My "ratings"

terrible: Coutinho, Benteke, Leiva
bad: Moreno, Can, lallana
ok: Ibe, Firmino, Lovren, Sakho, Clyne, Mignolet, Allen
good: Smith

Nobody making runs upfront, Benteke with touch of a curb today, Firmino the only player tracking back, "washereallyonthepitch-Coutinho" and the 2nd goal we conceded was absolutely atrocious, that cross was unchallenged with four LFC players around.

We have a big problem upfront when the most threatening header all game cam from Joe Allen.

It seemed like our players were playing together for the first time ever!.

Is it a communication issue, something is terribly wrong?

One touch finishing hardly counts as good with the ball at your feet. When he did just about manage to buy half a yard from the edge of the box though his shot power was impressive. Good with the ball at your feet, basically means you are good at dribbling, Benteke has wasted 3 1v1s, 1 vs city, 1 vs leicester, 1 vs sunderland.

Just watched the highlights again on match of the day having cooled off since yesterdays shambles. Lucas could easily have prevented that cross for the first goal. He just stood 2 metres away from Antonio, made no effort what so ever to close him down and stop the cross, gave him all the time in the world to pick a cross. Lazy lazy play from him, hope Klopp tore into him for it.

I think that our problem is central midfield with Hendo ending up being a star in it. When he is not around, we do not have a replacement
