Klopp is such a . Last season he brought on a fking DEFENDER to play in STRIKE so he could play route 1. If I remember correctly they got a 3-3 with Arsenal.

Used to like Klopp even when he took over ar Liverpool. Last couple of weeks when things aren't going his way he's acting like a prick.

Is there a link to the interview with Klopp where he complains about route one?

The one I heard he just said it was difficult to okay against with Felliani and Ibrahimovic.

He didn't say much different to Jose.

Can't stand the guy but managers seem to like him, and I can see why as I never like it when I see you bring him on against us - he is very good defensively in corners, a threat and a menace when you are crossing, and there is a 50/50 chance he will elbow one of players in the face and cause some damage
Mourinho seems to agree, Leon Osman on the other hand actually laughed after the Everton game and said something along the lines of "when he was with us, he would never have conceded that penalty because he would never have been in that position, hes just far too clumsy to defend in the danger zones, we used to get him as far forward as possible"

Fair play to him, he always said it was likely after 3 years with us and his promise to his wife, so he's kept to that. At least he went out with a trophy, albeit somewhat tarnished by the way the club handled things afterwards.

Hope he enjoys his retirement.

Which whilst funny, sounds pretty incredible. When defending a corner I'm pretty sure he'd be deployed in the box.

Liverpool have had two league games against Utd and have scored in open play in neither. Barely had a shot on target.
Yet they are supposedly great.

Not seen anything from this Liverpool side to merit the media obsession. Nothing like as good as Chelsea and not as good as City or United.
I think they had more shots on target than you last weekend?

Who says they're supposedly great? They're better than they have been for a long time, that is all. Whereas you're not as good as you were once ... simple.

You just can't bear them being above you in the table ... jesus.

I'm not sure the son of god has much interest in the premiership.

Also lets not forget for 90 min at Anfield you played with 9 men behind the ball most of the time

And at Old Traff our 1st choice attacking team was not what we play wheneveryone does praise us

that would be


Couotinho Firmino Mane
Lallana
Henderson Wijnaldum

That front 4 is when we are at our best

We had a tiny cameo from a unfit Coutinho, Origi up front who is not even close to the level of Firmino when he plays that role and No Mane out wide with his pace in behind -

Play us at Old Traff with that team you are in for a lot tougher game ORD -

Literally gives me goosebumps when this roars out on a matchday.

God I wished he still played.

Strangely inaccurate price reporting on the BBC site - £14.4m for Schweinsteiger? - he came on a free!

I could see what he wanted to achieve, but it wasn't the United way and it never really worked. But, he won us an FA Cup, something we'd not won for over a decade and was hugely entertaining in his press conferences. Who could ever forget 'Louis van Gaal's Army!' - or his crazy 'dive' on the touchline?

Enjoy that retirement, Louis, you've earned it.

Nope. We paid for Schweinsteiger. The only high profile name coming to us on a free recently is Ibra.
