I get rotation but this makes absolutely no sense, we should be full strength against Everton and then resting tonight if needed.

And with Salah starting tonight, that also suggests he wasn't injured when substituted against Everton!


If I am not mistaken Klopp was making very few changes last season and the 2nd half of the season was what it was. This season he is experimenting the complete opposite. He is probably still learning the best way so as to win the title next season or the season after. Makes sense.

Resting key players against Everton to secure a 0-0 at home to West Brom, this week has been really poor to put it mildly. With Arsenal drawing two games and Chelsea losing one, we had a really opportunity to cement on Top 4 place and put pressure on those above, as usual we blew it and I think the manager needs to take his fair share of the blame.

We had real momentum after Brighton and Spartak, wholesale changes against Everton made no sense at the time and it looks even worse now!

Why can't he just change one or two players? Why does it have to be 5 or 6 every time?

As I said, he is probably learning, can't see any other explanation

'He is probably learning', Big change then, from messiah to trainee in two seasons?

If he's still learning about Lovren, Moreno and Mignolet then I'm afraid he's in the wrong profession.

In all seriousness though Klopp isn't stupid but his persistence with the 3 above will be his downfall, they aren't good enough. They will all have a small run of games where they look decent but we all know they'll be back to costing us games when it really matters.

Scoring 3 against Arsenal at the Emirates and still not winning doesn't have much to do with missing chances but rather defence. We are playing football not handball, therefore shouldn't expect handball like scores

Giving away 2 and 3 goals leads is definitely something to complaint about.

34 out of 42 points is a pretty good return, and we've done pretty well through the festive fixtures. A few dropped points, but we've done much better against the smaller bus parkers.

Yes, we've done better against the smaller teams but unfortunately worse against the bigger boys losing to both City and Spurs beating only Arsenal. We have home games against Spurs and City but away games against United and Chelsea. These games will probably decide our position at the end of the season.
