Nunez can’t hold the ball for shit and it kills me

[Firemans4Horn 18,534]

Gomez and Matip are washed.

Nat sitting over there thinking ‘what the fuck do I have to do to get time?’

Yup. 1000%. They both look like shit. Gomez is so bad on his positioning.

what the fuck role is his playing on this? Some kind of 2nd grade sweeper?

The lack of transition from our D thru the midfield to our attackers sucks ass since Gini left.

That was exactly what I was talking about. Where the fuck is he going? You can even see Andy trying to figure out what the line needs to be because Gomez is no where 

[hobbes2702 13,509]

Halftime should see Gomez and Keita out for sure. If we didn’t have so many injuries I’d say Matip and Nunez also. Although I can’t fault the forwards much. All we do is try to play long balls to them like we are fucking stoke

[mdmost 44,110]

The lack of production is depressing. I'm not shocked that our defense is terrible without Konate and VvD. But to get nothing up front and not even really be a threat is more worrisome. Klopp doesn't seem to know how to get anything out of the existing parts any longer. We haven't score an EPL goal since Brentford on 1/2. 3 matches without any goals and in none of those games did it feel like we were threatening. 

[mdmost 44,110]

Gomez passing is atrocious.

It all comes down to the midfield. We don’t create any real chances for the forwards. It’s either they beat someone for pace or take a man off the dribble.

FIFY

Naby fucking sucks

[hobbes2702 13,509]

I don’t b know if Bajectic is athletic enough for this level yet, but he is really good 

[mdmost 44,110]

Oh Mo. At least you tried. 

[hobbes2702 13,509]

Shoulda scored Darwin. But again it’s the same shit. Our forwards don’t get chances other than random shit over the top. There’s no chance to find any rhythm 

[Firemans4Horn 18,534]

Darwin has the killer instinct of a rubber knife

[mdmost 44,110]

Wow. It's just amazingly bad now. 

[hobbes2702 13,509]

Joe Gomez everyone.

And Thiago for fucks sake dude

[LonghornJudas 1,138]

He was outside the box

[hobbes2702 13,509]

Sa brought that ball out right?! How’s that get missed 

It’s also amazing how much holding people get to do on Mo with no calls

That’s what it looked like to me at least. Had hands still on the ball a good 1-2 yards outside of it.

I thought Brighton was going to be the low point of our season. Little did I know....

[Firemans4Horn 18,534]

Klopp and Lijnders have shown the adaptability this season of Greg Davis against OU in 2004

[mdmost 44,110]

Gakpo's walking to the bench thinking what the hell did I get myself into here?

I get it but like what would you have them do? The team sucks. What’s the winning strategy with no midfielders and no CBs?

[Hagbard Celine 11,294]

on the studio show: klopp has not adapted to departure of pressing mane; running same tactics, without the tools, and no january investment because fsg are preoccupied with a sale = is klopp up for another run with new owners and total retooling?

 I can tell you that it's not "send everyone forward and Inshallah". The thing that worked for us in the past was that we defended with a high line. We basically cut the pitch in half and didn't need a transitional midfield because our defenders could pass directly thru the midfield or to the wingbacks. Since our defense has gone to shit and we don't possess the ball, it's not working. Having better players would help, but the system is flawed right now. Fuck it, go to a 4-4-2 and start from scratch. 

[mdmost 44,110]

I know what I'm getting you guys for Christmas.

 

[Cheeseweasel 26,443]

Thanks. I hate it.

Derby day.  

 

That's about all I got for this one.

Can we get Origi on loan?

[mdmost 44,110]

Oh no, those CBs. 

 

[hobbes2702 13,509]

Why not give Nat a chance. Joe clearly isn’t the answer.

[Cheeseweasel 26,443]

Remember when we were deadly on free kicks? 

[mdmost 44,110]

Why didn't TAA take it?

No clue. Seemed like the wall was set up perfectly for a right footed shot.

[hobbes2702 13,509]

Well we certainly are fast. Great goal

[pied06 228]

HOLY SHIT the soccer gods smiled on us in that 15 seconds!

Gakpo on a nice pass from TAA!
