The solution???

See to that you get better at either of those solutions. It's not much harder than that - but have we tried?

Oh, and as you say Darc - get better at defending ffs! A defensive coach and a proper goal keeping coach should be able to work wonders with us in just a few weeks.

A draw instead of a loss against lower teams would have put us out of reach from Arse and Manure. That's how bad we've been against the these teams this season! Against top 6 we've been world class of course, so that's not a problem for us!


Yes but we're still 4th despite being the 5th in terms of wealth/resources. We are still overperforming

I would rather say we well overperformed until Dec helped by less games as we were not in Europe, but crashed in the second half as we didn't have enough good players to continue the good work.

Simple. Attack with pace and use the flanks. Spread their defence, get to the corners, cut the ball back for strikes on goal.

East peasy, but Clyne and Milner refuse to co-operate or are told to stay away from the opposition's corner flags, and seeing them check and cut infield time after time annoys the fook out of me.

Playing balls into space and making triangles have also disappeared from our play, which also pizzes me off.

Our back four cannot player the type of football Klopp is trying to integrate, though it's not 100% the player's fault. When you have players like Milner, Klavan, Lovren and Clyne as your back 4, you can't expect them to be 'ball playing' defenders. Either buy players that are suited to the style, that is players who have good ball control, or develop a new strategy.

Maybe we need to buy Klopp an laxative so as to get the lump of shiit that's blocking his brain activity out of the way. The other option open to us is to block entry to the pitch for that imbecile he calls his "brain" so that he might start thinking again, because that external "brain" he lugs around with him sure as hell isn't performing.

I'm starting to get the feeling you don't rate Klopp,just a feeling like.


That job interview was going so well until I realized I was fukked up on acid in the middle of a cornfield naked and talking to a scarecrow.

well as I've said before he has his strong points and his weak points, but he also seems to be a slow learner, and seems obstinate and very one dimensional. His man management skills are his greatest asset, maybe if he wasn't allowed to select the players or determine tactics on match days he could be a brilliant motivational speaker in the boot room before kickoff.
If we can somehow stutter and scramble over the CL qualification line, with the benevolent contrivance of our enemies, we might sign a couple of decent, gutsy and determined players and give Klopp another season who knows? I'm more in hope than hopeful. He will be with us next season for sure so we'll see.

Yes a few players with great minds who could help organise things on the pitch would help Klopp I think.

Arsenal seems to get 3 points away at St Mary's tonight, so we need to get a win against the Hammers this weekend now!
