I love Mo but how is he still on the pitch?

Turned it off too. They're not bothered, not sure I should be.

Not our day when stuff like that happens.

Diaz has actually been decent today without getting any reward.
He's hoping his reward will be a move to Barca.
Not sure I blame him at the moment and he's one of the lowest paid in the squad by all accounts.
If the rumoured numbers are anywhere near representative they're welcome to him.

Dyche has worked miracles with this lot. I'd have him as a strong contender for manager of the year.

I'm absolutely fuming sat here at the lack of response from our players. I'd be benching at least 6 or 7 of those

The most frustrating thing is that we've come this far but then to see us put in these lethargic performances over the last 4 or 5 games, when we are this close, it's gutting to see as a fan. Run yourselves into the ground and if we lose, fine but at least look like you REALLY want it. Where's the urgency, the desire, the rallying, the hunger... even Klopp looks like he's downed tools.

Yup, end of season can't come soon enough. This is really not a positive way to bow out.

The wheels well and truly have come off ever since the fa cup loss. Makes you wonder if something has gone on in the background as everyone has gone off the boil at once.

They all look like they've checked out.

Stress and pressure of chasing 4 titles, plus the boss and perhaps a couple of big names going?

Was really hoping they'd get all 4 (a bit of light in our household's football following!), but looks like a damp squib ending to the season and a rebuild job definitely needed. Sad way to see Klopp bow out (even he seems to be in shoulder shrugging mode).

Not heard of Slot before either. Have Eredivisie managers performed amazingly at Premier League level?

The end of Liverpools season is being filmed for a documentary too isn't it?
An hour of the team just sat around going "Shall we just not bother?" biggrin

Certainly makes for a downbeat ending. Probably won't get released now. laugh

No hysteria here. It is what it is.

And for those wondering why Gakpo and Danns weren't used...

https://www.thisisanfield.com/2024/04/jurgen-klopp...

Gakpo withdrew from the squad at the last minute as his partner went into labour. That apparently forced Klopp to bring Danns in. He had played on Monday and Klopp eventually didn't want to risk him in what was such a physical game.

Why have him on the bench then? It makes no sense so close to the end of the season if we needed a win.

Maybe the game was too physical and too out of our control by then.

Surely you know that a game against Everton is going to be physical though. I do think that the subs were too late though.

Sure, but you don't necessarily think you're going to be down 2-0 in such a physical game and chasing the game. He would only have come on (I'm guessing) if we were winning comfortably.

Eze at £60m doesn't seem bad value.
