Just watching his presser now, why is he so combative to the press?
Because he’s a twat.

Ill be the first to admit it, we were lucky ti get away with a win. Liverpools play made it possible for us to do it because they were very one dimensional but they had their chances. Klopp should have acknowledged it in the post match. We were better. 3 points. Bragging rights. Wish we'd have done the same at anfield.
If hes so above draws then why settle for less? Don’t be ridiculous. I would have been livid with a draw today regardless of whether we were behind or not.Not playing for draws and celebrating a last-minute equaliser are not contradictions.
Anyway, great win. Great to nail em again.
Klopp still has no plan B against teams that surrender possession to them. His lack of flexibility has cost his team points. The Liverpool job has exposed his tactical naivety, doubt any one ranks him at the highest level anymore as compared to his successful seasons with dortmund.
Klopp hugs his players and says boom.And then the pundits say Mourinho has lost it
It’s not very bright of him is it? They love him, fight his corner and overlook his antics and yet he gets bolshy, short and arrogant with them when they ask him bog standard questions.
They’re going to get tired of him very soon and when they do it’s likely going to be at a time he needs them the most and it’ll make his life very difficult.
Were you even watching the game? Liverpool did feck all the entire game despite all their possession and it would have been a comfortable 2-0 win if Bailey didn't give them a goal.Ill be the first to admit it, we were lucky ti get away with a win.

Yeah he should have, I think Mata was shocked that he was left open too. Didn't realise he had all the time in the world to take the ball down to score.Don't want to sound too greedy but Mata should've really scored in the first half. 2-1 heavily flatters Liverpool, should've been 3-0.
When United will attack I hope all my players are defending. If somebody says that is parking the bus, then no problem. I would never use that term. I have no problem with defending, I know how the situation is at the moment. They play a specific kind of football, we play a specific kind of football, but it’s all about winning. There are different ways to win football games. We have a history, since the 80s...
when was that? I must have missed itThe clearest red card of the day was Lovrens deliberate elbow on Mctominay. I’m surprised no one mentioned it in commentary.

Also not a celebration. It's called thanking fans, and is common in a lot of European countries. A bit cringey, yes, but not a celebration.Guilible are you. Fall for a bait

I loved the expressions on his face when the cameras zoomed in towards the end of the first half. Had this clueless, defeated look going.
Yep.
It's baffling too. He's not a moron. He has noticeably improved their defense. I'm not sure why he went into a match against Mourinho without a plan to deal with the second ball. It's something I've seen other top managers try and account for against us. There is the possibility that his defenders forgot about everything they learnt in training, but odds lean towards him not paying that much mind, which again is negligence from a manager I consider top-tier.
I’m glad Klopp tries to blame the long balls, the pen not given, and the defensive blunders. The fact is he doesn’t understand JMs tactics and didn’t do anything to prepare his team to have a better balance in defense to counter the tactics. Long may it continue.
I think if you look at build-up for Porto, Klopp was adamant that he can't play weakened squad for Porto because it's CL. Which is exactly he did, out of front three he played all except Salah. I believe before Porto, there must have been no mention of man-utd match either. So basically Klopp got less time to prepare his troops for the match whereas Mourinho had a week and it is evident in the efficiency with which UTD players executed the plan. Also, Mourinho had this tactic of targeting our right side planned. Our CBs are good in the air but out of Van Dijk and Lovren, Lovren is vulnerable against more physical opponent, than on Van Dijk's side we have Robertson, who is good defensively and Mane comes all the way down to provide protection. Whereas on right we have inexperienced youngster with little to no protection from Salah. While Man UTD had Alexis, Lukaku and rashford playing against our Lovren and TAA(3 vs 2)
That is just an excuse though. It’s not like the fixtures were announced only after the Porto game that klopp couldn’t have known it was Liverpool.
When your team has weaknesses your DMs and others have to chip in. Young vs Salah is more of a mismatch than TAA vs Rashford. But he had help from matic and even Rashford so Young could successfully nullify Salah.

We had a rock solid defense to boast. Just because they play some one-touch football doesn't mean they play exactly like us in the 90s.I still think his Liverpool team plays exactly like we did in the 90s, albeit with a squad that's not as balanced nor talented.
Ummm, what?I think we would’ve deserved a draw, that’s a fact, but we don’t have it so it’s not important. A draw at Manchester is always a sign of a good game.

I don't see it, our 90s teams could hurt you in so many different ways so they could usually find some way to win regardless of how the opposition tried to nullify us.
Nah, we were never as focused on pressing after losing the ball back then. If anything, Spurs current style is far more comparable.I still think his Liverpool team plays exactly like we did in the 90s, albeit with a squad that's not as balanced nor talented.
They have the same bombast going forward. But to reiterate, not the same level of players. United had more to offer. But in terms of fluidity and open play, it's the same.We had a rock solid defense to boast. Just because they play some one-touch football doesn't mean they play exactly like us in the 90s.
If anything they are like Arsenal of 4-5 years ago.They have the same bombast going forward. But to reiterate, not the same level of players. United had more to offer. But in terms of fluidity and open play, it's the same.
