It appears there are far to many prima-donnas in our squad who just aren't prepared to roll their sleeves up or be honest non-pampered/spoilt brats like many teams who have never had our success.I don't know what else to put it down to.

When you see Stoke or West Ham etc there is a grit, honesty and determination to give your all for 90 minutes. I just don't see that in a lot of the non glamour games with our lot.

Sturridge is needed back like yesterday to hopefully mask this mess whilst Klopp has 2 or 3 windows to change things.

Be interesting to hear anyone else's thoughts on why other than our squad is totally inferior to anyone around us.


I agree 100%. The big name and established players have no guts at all. Other sides are running faster, tackling harder and putting in more effort and are up for a fight.
we have more than a few players who only give 60% and they think it is ok to lose.

For me it's down to the type of players we've brought in. We have no balance in the squad. It's full of talented players and not worse individually than those of the teams that beat us lately. But they're all lightweight, technical players that won't stand up physically even if they wanted to. We've also not bought any top level, experienced pros (Milner maybe?) Which isn't helping.

Well said, quite a few of our players don't have the right work ethic, attitude and application. Without these talent is worthless.

Klopp is left with an average/below average squad - I don't rate anyone in our current team. I cannot name a single player that would get into a top 4 team. Give him time to build his own team and then judge.
