Tbf,Swansea were poor and very lucky to get away with 3 points. We should have scored with our chances.We weren't great though but were unlucky.

Lucky to get 3 points for sure, but aside from the 2 chances in the final minute I didn't think Liverpool necessarily deserved more than a point from that match either.

The two best chances before that were a chipped ball over the top which Salah skied on the volley and a cross from Salah to Mane on the counter which Mane also skied. Neither of those chances were particularly easy imo.
 
Liverpool were good for at least a draw against Swansea, but it's nice when they lose, because Klopp comes out with some funny stuff.
 
They have actually been on good form so hopefully this brings them back to their normal level. Is it possible like last season there's a bit of a bad run in them due to a burn out much like last year? They are going to miss Coutinho more than they will benefit from VVD IMO. Would be ideal with Champions League coming up and them in the FA Cup. Would absolutely love them to be in the Europa League next year and see RAWK explain how it's in fact better than the Champions League again.
 
Think Liverpool can't really perform well when they have lots of the ball, they don't players that can create something out of nothing. Well they did have one, but they sold him. So the blueprint for bottom half teams is to let Liverpool have possession and hit them on the counter or through set plays. At the end of the day against Swansea they had 71% possession but only 4 shots on goal - and the clearest chance occurred during stoppage time.

The man is an absolute melt of a bloke. Such a damn sore loser who somehow gets a completely free pass in the media.

If Jose was coming out with comments like that, he'd be mocked relentlessly by the papers. He's a one-trick pony, his teams might be easy on the eye and fun for the neutral but there's a reason why certain teams can totally nullify him and that's not a sign of a world-class manager. A world-class manager can adapt and find a way.
 
Lol he's found out that transition offence is useless if the opposition does not transit out of a defensive shape. If he doesn't qualify for the champions league this season, I think the knives will start to be sharpened.

Watch the interview to gain some context before getting your knickers in a twist.
 
Are we doing the bit were we pretend to be offended by Klopp saying the standard stuff 99% of managers in his position would say?

Liverpool struggle to break teams down when they have the bulk of the possession, their strength lies in hitting teams on the breakaway. Losing Coutinho means they don't really have anyone in their midfield that can open teams up when they park the bus.

Exactly, they are the most clueless ducks when they are devoid of space to run to.
 
Where are his ‘attacking patterns’ when teams sit deep? Without Coutinho bailing them out with a long range effort what are they going to do?

Flood the midfield, press, counter. That’s not great attacking tactics.
 
He is lucky his defenders have taken the flack for their defensive frailties.
He needs to look at himself.
 
Does he not look at some of the goals we concede and see how dreadful they are. We rarely concede good goals, they’re mostly poor goals and easily preventable but still he never changes.

We’ll win nothing with him in charge unless something dramatically changes.
 
Don't worry, next time Liverpool play a big team they'll probably win like usual and people will be back hyping them. Second only to City etc.

Guy is too arrogant - I think he will get fired for that
 
We’ll win nothing with him in charge if he keeps setting us up the same way.

More often than not the sides that win trophies are defensively solid. And we’re so far from that it’s ridiculous.

He can’t seriously watch these games back and think it’s ok?
 
So assuming they don't win the Champions League.

That's one trophy in almost 12 years for Liverpool. No trophy in 6 years.

No trophy for Klopp in 6 years.
