Klopp has allowed the poor form to happen. He is the manager, he takes the stick. We have been poor for a few weeks. Nothing has been done about it. Why?
I got hammered the other week after the man utd cup game when i posted i hope klopp has them in the next morning for shooting and finishing practice as they missed so many chances and since then we have been just the same very poor finishing.
I also said Trent is never a full back while he has a hole in his hoop the second goals was very much like Madrid's winner in the Champions League where Trent never attacked the ball. I am convinced Bradley is a far better full back than Trent will ever be. As for the three forwards, Diaz tried the other two Mo and Nunez should never have been on the pitch.
i don't care how many goals Mo has scored, you don't put on the red shirt of Liverpool and go through the motions. We can see this so why can't klopp? I would rather throw Danns on even though he is a kid. He would put more effort into the game. This is not after the fact this is what i have posted over the season.

By saying Klopp has allowed our poor form to happen, do you think he could have prevented it and didn't?
If so, why would he do that?

I reckon he should have played the kids more often
Our poor performances have built since senior players returned
Which is why I think they have tapped out of listening to Klopp.

In fairness he’s looked at the business end of the season and gone with experience, I think a combination of poor tactics and players letting the club down are the issue. Consecutive stupid mistakes almost every game, sloppiness, no one taking responsibility, lack of quality in depth in key positions and players who are at the end of their careers in very visible decline. A toxic mixture to have at the end of the season.

Apart from Quansah / Bradley the kids haven’t really played much premier league football this season.
Even in the 3 cups the kids were accompanied with quite a few senior players for the majority of games.
1
25 Apr 2024 20:03:59
Paisley79 respectfully, nonoe of us were advocating for playing the kids a the time when we emerged as title contenders so let's not start with the hindsight stuff. If anything, we were all looking forward to the senior players comong back to give the squad the bodies it needed and give us a boost. Alas, it did not happen and we got worse. If many were and he wasn't then, fair. Nobody did that so let's leave the past where it is.
As for Klopp "allowing it to happen", that would mean he knew better and chose to do nothing which I don't believe for a second. Now do I believe that he has either not recognised our issues which have existed from jump? Absolutely and that's on him. Now these issues have come back to bite and and we can't get out of the rutt we are in. It's that simple, IMO.

25 Apr 2024 20:31:16
We'll never know what the kids would have done. Klopp works with them everyday and will have a better idea than us about them.
It's a cliché often rolled out when things are not going well: play the kids. Klopp and the players deserve criticism but it's hard to criticise someone that isn't playing.
Does anyone really think that Danns, McConnell and Clarke would win us the League? It's a genuine question because I know very little about them. Please don't use 'they couldn't have done worse' because they could when we are second in the League.

I seen mo huffing at his team mates last night because when the pass was on or he running to make space they wasn’t picking him out I’ve seen Nunez over the last few weeks do the same make runs and by the time someone does pass it forward he would be offside. To slow.

Whomever he picked, the result determines the reaction.
If he’d gone with kids and we’d lost, there would be hell to pay. If we lose, he gets pelters either way.
His subs though, well that’s another matter.

I’m trying to imagine the world you’re describing. I guess it looks like Klopp sitting in a dark closet the morning after the manU game and doing nothing. Which is obviously bollocks, like your premise
You are confusing outcome with performance and effort. It’s ok, it’s a classic mistake that people make. The worse thing is to allow that confusion to get conflated by your own speculation and then pass it off as fact. That’s when we start to worry that there won’t be enough tinfoil for the rest of us.

All the moaning on here by grown adults is nothing short of embarrassing. The league title maybe out of reach, but calling for players heads to roll, and saying we need a complete rebuild or blaming player recruitment is plain stupid and a major over reaction.
Klopp leaves us in much better shape than he found us, but for me, Klopp has nothing left in the tank and should have probably called it quits at the end of last season.
Announcing it like he did mid season, has had a detrimental effect, the players are not focused, the tactics are horrible we have reverted back to the tactics that cost us last season, and there was no reason too.
A few tweaks, a few new players coming in and a new manager with new ideas is exactly what we need.
The season maybe over but we have a trophy in the bag none the less. Klopp will get a heroes goodbye and a well deserved one too at his final game but to claim there is nothing to be positive about going forward is stupid.

Andyjh83, I think people are just really frustrated and disappointed as this season promised so much more than it did in preseason so the come-down is very hard to accept right now.
I love and share your positivity and optimism at the end of the day BUT, the reality is hard to take. For me, we went for the title and we have fallen short and we got to deal with that. Klopp may get a lot of the blame BUT I never forget that he is the reason we were able to challenge for these trophies (and win one in the most legendary of circumstances at Wembley) so I take the good with the bad cos at the ned of the day, you win some and you lose some. This is the absolute essence of sport, if not life itself.

25 Apr 2024 20:44:20
I think if we would have got top 4 last year he probably would have left, he looked tired then. He looks mentally fatigued now imo. This is where his coaches should be helping out. He looked happy and fresh earlier in the season but now I’m thinking it’s probably because he told FSG he was off and knowing he was going was a big release of stress.
1
25 Apr 2024 21:44:00
@ the op I couldn't disagree anymore. Obviously I appreciate your opinion but for me to be challenging for the title we need Salah Diaz Nunez replacements. Not to mention at least 2 decent central defenders. I'd personally try and replace Jones also.
I know this will annoy a few but for me Trent needs to go too.
I've no idea how long these replacements would take but we won't be challenging anytime soon in my opinion without new players.

I've just heard that Arne Slot flew into Liverpool on a KLM flight this afternoon.
My mate asked for his autograph but it turned out to be Michael Van Gerwen on his way to the M&S Bank Arena.

Michael Van Gerwen is still a good autograph.
I went up for an autograph of someone I thought was Arne Slot and they wrote Terry Watson.
Once I saw my mistake in writing, I said "Thanks very much Terry" and cooly walked away.
I'm now trying to sell an authentic Terry Watson signed Liverpool Shirt.

The players should hang their heads in shame, with the exception of Diaz (who I can't believe we are talking about as a possible exit) and also Alisson who can't be blamed for anything last night.
Derby match, title run in, chance to go back joint top of the table. For some of them, possibly the last chance to win a (or another) league title. And they turn up like that.
I can't absolve Klopp of blame though. How on earth he and the coaching staff could look at recent matches and performances and conclude that Nunez, Salah, Jones and Szoboszlai should play last night is beyond me.
Salah, Nunez and Szoboszlai have been awful lately, actually anonymous in Szoboszlai and Salah's cases. We made some changes for the Fulham match and brought in Gakpo, Jota and Gravenberch and it was the best performance of late, with two of them scoring. Why on earth change it back? There was no reason or justification for Salah, Nunez or Szoboslai to come back in (I know Jota was injured) . Danns could not have done worse and would likely have scored one of those chances had it fallen to him.
Looks like the end of the road for Salah. Nunez I think can still have a role but he can't be the guy we have in front of goal when the big chances fall in the crucial matches. Szoboszlai is almost back to square one. I think he can still be a brilliant player for us but early season Gerrard comparisons seem a long way away. Similar contribution level to Keita of late. Needs to reset for next season.

Difficult to pinpoint one thing or blame the players.
I think Klopp announcing his departure mid-season, lack of defensive reinforcements in the summer and bizarre tactics are the root causes of the bottom falling out of our season.
Yes, Darwin should have scored more. Yes, Ibou shouldn't be doing a Lovren impression and Mo shouldn't be on the pitch at the moment.
The emotion has overspilled over since that United cup game. And they cannot get it under control and doubt they will from here on in.
I just hope we can squeak top 4.

25 Apr 2024 12:14:20
Maybe the players are just physically and mentally done for this season.
Klopp demands everything from the players, that’s his style. We’ve had injuries and the AFCON and Asia cup to deal with plus competing in the latter stages of 4 tournaments.
They’re not be judged on one game or even 1 month.
Over the season they’ve given their all.

RR - Jota or Gakpo were unavailable. Klopps biggest fault is not playing Elliot more. Playing this inverted nonsense. Not given Danns more of a go to see if he can back his 2 very composed goals in the cup. He's too loyal to out of form players. Klopp looks absolutely ready to walk away from management.
Last night, he spent longer moaning at the 4th official than he did directing his team. He then made 4 defensive subs, when it was crying out for Danns to have a go. I think this is as far as he can take us.
Players also coming to realise lots of things are about to change. I genuinely believe that has impacted them.

The only “sympathies” I have are that tiredness at the very elite level can significantly hamper your performance when compared to your opponent. However, that is absolutely not is what is going on here. A lot of our first team have spent sizable periods of the season injured, so not playing, thus not building up minutes and physical fatigue.
Quite how our season has unraveled like this is a mystery, though I suspect it is due to any of the below:
- Our quality as a team isn’t as good as we were allowed to believe following the Carabao Cup win.
- Klopp’s change in attitude is noticeable. He’s never been the most ruthless coach, but he genuinely doesn’t care enough now. That is clear.
- The coaching has been poor for ages. I will never know how Klopp, one of the most highly-regarded managers in football, has allowed Lijnders’ unsuccessful ideas to permeate into his team like they have.
- Despite the awesome history and success LFC have created over the decades, we aren’t a club that does anything in a straightforward or efficient way. We suffer as much heartbreak as we do joy.

25 Apr 2024 13:07:12
I’ll be honest I’m at the stage where I’m beyond anger. I’m even past being resigned to this team and manager putting out the same performance and effort each week without fail. I’m at the stage of just utter confusion. I simply cannot explain it anymore. It is clearly a multitude of things but to me something is off with the players and I’m not just talking about their performances. As for Klopp, I simply cannot recognise who this man is anymore. Because this ain’t Klopp at all. It’s almost like all common sense never mind tactical sense has decided to the take that sabbatical before he actually did. He has absolutely no plan B. On the touch lines he looks like he doesn’t have a clue. A player will play well then get dropped the following game. And for the life of me, why is he swapping centre backs every week, like what top manager does that? He brings on Gomez and Kostas when we are 2-0 down to do what exactly? In fact I’ll go one step further. He brought on 3 defenders when we were losing and left Danns on the bench? And why does he keeps starting Jones? He clearly keeps instructing the team to play at a walking tempo with Hendo-esque sideways passing, and that’s despite performances and results taking a nose dive. I simply don’t get it and it’s sad to see our manager go out like this.
People point to the fact that he told us he was exhausted in January. Well, yes he told us he was exhausted and leaving in January. But the timing of that announcement and the way both Klopp and FSG handled the matter was completely wrong in my opinion. Personally he should have left in November when he first informed FSG. I understand Klopp is human and not a machine. So like most humans in normal jobs that hand in their 2 - 6 weeks notice period, they are not focused. Very few give the same effort. In fact the majority down tool’s completely. Now, take away sentiment for one second and let the fact that Klopp has been allowed to serve a 6 month notice period when he told FSG he was mentally exhausted. FSG should have thanked him for everything and told him he has to go there and then. And Klopp in all honesty should have told FSG himself that he simply cannot do it anymore and he is leaving as of immediate effect, because if he is not 100% it would be a disservice to the club for him to stay on until the end of the season. Us fans would have said you know what, at least he didn’t stay when he weren’t 100% focused. Everything starts from the manager and it filters down to the players. And we wonder why the players are walking around like they couldn’t give a toss.
And talking about not giving a toss, let’s start with Salah. Yes, his legs have gone and yes he ain’t the same Salah. But as many including myself have mentioned some weeks back - his body language is all the way off. He will miss chances and then clearly look like he isn’t bothered. For an ultra competitive athlete like Salah that is telling. And has anyone noticed he is simply not running anymore. In fact someone tell me the last time they saw him press an opponent? He is going through the motions and for me, his head is fully in Saudi Arabia. He is most likely thinking about the reported £2.5million per week tax free wages, the all year round sunshine and being the main man over there. If it looks obvious to a lot of us why is Klopp starting him? Because it’s not like he is playing badly or has poor body language but is still banging the goals in week in week out.
Diaz for all his fancy tricks and flicks is not clinical. Let’s call a spade a spade. Plus it looks like he wants a place in the sun, so he can go. No one is bigger than the club, especially someone who doesn’t exactly have a great scoring record. And as for Nunez, he is testing my patience. We have to make a decision on him in the summer. Either sell him and cut our losses or Arne Slot has to be dedicated to working with him day in day out, because I can’t take another season of forwards not finishing. Personally I’m at the point where we cut our losses and sell him. And lastly Mr Diogo Jota. Screaming Jota the Slotta and he is our best finisher is wearing thin with me. I posted his injury record the other day, which if we are having an honest conversation is quite frankly ridiculous. Just sell him in the summer. There is a case for selling literally all of our forwards bar Danns. I mean, we have forwards who either can’t finish or can’t stay fit. You seriously can’t make it up. The defence is a copy and paste of what I just said about the forwards. We have defenders who cannot defend to save their life’s. And can we talk about Robbo. The guy simply cannot cross anymore, he is not exactly been the best defensively for a few years now and he is picking up frequent injuries. So what exactly does he offer? To compound matters his back up in Kostas is ten times worse. I would sell all our backline bar Quansah and Bradley.

I Like Elliot but i do believe we've built him up a bit too much.
The lad played Sunday against Fulham and came on last night and if you put a gun to my head and asked me to say anything of note that he did (or any other game he's started) then ill be hoping the person holding the gun and doing the shooting is Nunez as that's my only hope.

These owners have. given us an extension to Anfield in the main stand stand and Anfield Road end making it one of the best stadiums in world football. Given us a new training facility which is one of the best in world football . Given us one of the best managers we have ever had. Given us one of the best teams we have ever had. Won every trophy there is aside from EL all whilst sticking to financial rules others have simply flaunted . But because they don't spend money like a certain Daddy Shiek or American tycoon they are bad owners? What a load of tosh. Its ok as when the rules change and we can spend what we want without fear of a points deduction and they get fed up with clueless unfreatful fans calling for them to leave they will sell up to who ever from which ever oil rich country wants the club and your wish will be granted, rest assured any trophy won on the back of reckless spending and rule breaking isn't worth the cabinet space.

JK23 - I'm kind of with you when it comes to Elliott. I like him and I think he's always held is own at least, and occasionally he's made a difference off the bench; good energy and work rate if the team is struggling to get going. But I'm not sure we're ever going to see much more than we've seen already.
I felt the same about Jones and, whilst he has been good at times this season, he's 23 years old now. Has he really delivered on the potential that everyone saw in him as an 18 year old, even allowing for a few injuries and set backs along the way.
1
25 Apr 2024 16:50:02
I said ages ago that when Klopp decided to call it a day with us that Jones and Elliott wouldn't be regular starters. They are squad players at best.
Elliott is the better of the two but he's not strong enough or quick enough to play at the highest level in midfield or up front.

Rr and Rigsby agree lads.
Don’t get me wrong they are both good footballers. But they aren’t the kind of player that can grab the game by the scruff of the neck and win it for you consistently.
I’ve only seen us have two truly world class midfielders in the last 30 years (this is where I get reminded of players I’ve forgot) and those are Stevie and Alonso. For me I just don’t see Trent at their level if moved into midfield but some (well within their right) seem to believe he is a world class midfielder.

As a person who works in sports psychology professionally my opinion is that there is a strong lack of focus from everybody. Mistakes being made are things easily fixed on the training ground but not when people aren't focused.
Not that any club would ask me for advice on this but had I been asked on how I felt making the announcement might affect the team I would have told them to wait.
Major news (good and bad) has a powerful effect on people and you go through stages of feeling. This response is entirely predictable professionally, saving it at least until the last month would have likely meant that players wouldn't have had time for it to really sink in and would be getting a slight bump in focus and determination for a short period.
That whole thing was very Ill advised. In my opinion.
The reason sports psychologists have become such a prevalent job in football is competition is almost entirely psychological. Keeping 26 people's psychological state in one place while announcing news that would be both shocking and dismaying for most is impossible. You want that to happen off season.

@Rigsby you don't normally need to since it's rare everyone has issues at the same time. Usually you'll be working with two or three, mostly younger players.
I have been in a situation when an employer had similar news and every single player was asking for appointments over the next week, it's extremely difficult to manage and impossible not to affect team performance overall.

This ain’t a dig at the owners but people do realise all the real estate and stadium extensions we’ve had has come from borrowed money that the club has to pay back and is a huge reason why the owners have a club they bought for a few hundred million now worth 4-7 billion.
Expanding the stadium wasn’t to get more of us into the ground as a nicety it was great business sense which makes money.

Trend seemed like he did not want to defend.
He should be moved to MF and we should give up this fullback moving to midfield tactic. It leaves us exposed at the back specially with Konate on that side.
Salah seems to have his mind setup for an exit in summer.
Nunez will miss a host of chances and we need to live with that unless he can apply himself in training at skill of hiting the target.
We may need to replace salah in summer.
Move Diaz to right, gapko on left and unez/ Jota as CF.

25 Apr 2024 11:30:03
I agree about TAA, bhav.
Build a team around him. He could have won us the game last night had we taken those chances and he set us on our way on Sunday. But get him further forward and tighten the back up. He's the best passer in the team and that's why he is being told to do what he is doing but at what cost?
I'd try to get Trent and Mac into a midfield with a quality defensive midfielder. And we've already got a good young right back waiting to come in.
3
25 Apr 2024 11:42:59
Definitely, forget positions for a minute, what are trents strengths? Passing, creativity, shooting. Weaknesses? Defending physicality ok let's play him right back. He needs to be given a free role in the middle of the park with a defensive midfielder with a bit of strength.
Decisions like this are on klopp.

25 Apr 2024 11:45:33
Simple now for the rest of this season, play the players not afraid to run at people and make things happen. Gakpo left, Diaz right. Then have Gravenberch and Elliott in midfield as they will run at people too. Danns or Jota up top as they're not wasteful in front of goal.
In defence I honestly don't think it matters as long as Quansah plays because aside from him the rest of them are all shirking responsibility.

25 Apr 2024 11:56:03

Trent still needs to develop for me.
He can play beautiful passes but sometimes they’re not the most effective passes. Sometimes you need quick simple passes to transition the play quickly.
He needs to learn that, he’s trying to be too beautiful all the time.

25 Apr 2024 12:17:23
Trent plays as he's told to play. The whole system adapts to accommodate him being free to do maximum damage. It is tactical.

25 Apr 2024 12:43:17
Whats Trent’s ambitions?
It’s a rhetorical question as no one actually knows.
But is it to captain his boyhood club or is it to compete for major honours every season.
If it’s the latter and Real come knocking and tell him it’s now or never. What does he do?
Does Gerrard regret not going to Chelsea all those years ago.
He stayed and gets very little respect from the fan base now. Let’s be honest I bet he does regret it.

“ree to do maximum damage”… but to whom though? As if feels like maximum damage to the team.

Trent has never been a "defensive" defender! Positionally he's always getting caught out and quite frankly looks like a fish out of water most of the time; left-sided opposition players of quality tie him up in knots. Absolutely no doubt he's brilliant going forward with vision and an ability to put passes on a sixpence SO PLAY HIM IN MIDFIELD!

Everyone on about Salah but does anyone think Robertsons legs are also gone? He was awful last night and is 31 now and tsimikas ain't much good, we could be in big trouble going forward if we don't move some of the old on.

Robertson has only just turned 30 To be fair but he's definitely looking worn out right now.

We are actively looking at retirement homes in the Maghull / Ormskirk area for clapped out thirty something footballers. Never fear we have the situation in hand.

think LB is going to be a bit of a problem, not sure what youngsters we have in that role.

Davies of Bayern would have been perfect for LB, but sadly he had no interest in us.

DeanW, left back is definitely an issue long term as Robbo is clearly slowing down. Ed001 speaks highly of Owen Beck. I've not seen him play in a senior game before but he was great at youth level.

Davies is Madrid bound. Hernandez at Milan has looked good anytime I’ve seen them.

I thought robbo tried v hard last nite but on the ball it was the worst I've seen him. think his feet tied together.
But in fairness to him it wastn'lack of effort which many others could be accused of.

I've heard that Robbo has been labouring on site for Ed025 before games.

Robinson from Fulham is apparently top of all the stats for left backs in the prem. good signing if we could get him.
