Liverpool have the best squad left in the competition
That's debatable. The most expensive, yes but that doesn't make it the best

Liverpool have the most unbalanced squad left in the competition.
We also have the most injured (and drugged) squad left in the competition.

I believe in Klopp, but one question bothers me: If he was after the draw, then why didn't he make that third substitution -the substitution that never was- in the ninetieth minute to kill off the game?

Lucas was dropping back I think, to almost form a back 5. perhaps klopp instructed this from the touchline, and thought his touchline instruction was enough, tbf it was hard to see villarreal scoring with almost the last kick of the game. just bad luck, and errors by some of the player, who I thought effort wise were terrific and deserved a draw.

I like my 2 strikers so will always be a bit wary of klopp..he has done amazing things with individual players but damn that was negative tonight..does firminio really give u that much more work than sturridge..the only reason firminio started was he doesn't run behind so can fall easily back behind the ball,,,danny would have been on the shoulder of defenders...
terrible decision for me, a proper striker and we win that game. villerall whilst no mugs are so so

Yes but he didn't exactly do that on Thursday did he?
Has been struggling since his arrival at LFC. Doesn't seem to be up for it - Had a few good games though, but generally poor so far, especially considering the fee we paid for him.

That's debatable. The most expensive, yes but that doesn't make it the best Exactly, most expensive yes. Only Rodgers and his girlfriend might think that we have the best squad. We don't have one top player except Coutinho but on a good day and Sturridge every now and then, rarely for a full game.

We have a poor squad to say the least. Yes if we choose to play only one striker, then it has to be a REAL striker. Not a false N:o 9, which Firmino is for me. Firmino should be behind the striker, operating between the defensive lines - but he is sooo similar to Lallana. Don't ever want to see those 2 on the pitch at the same time ever again! 2 players strolling around aimlessly with no visible purpose is too much against good(ish) opposition.
