They should be all ashamed of themselves

The results show that these lot are spineless and only gee themselves up for the big boys.

They have no excuse what so ever. Leicester are a shambles and just played few days ago in Europe yet they beat us with ease.

The effort levels were a disgrace today and you could tell right from kick off hiw the game would pan out.

Also playing players out of position and then not buying when he clearly does not trust players on the bench is pathetic.

2 wins I think in 2017 out of 12. We are not going to finish top 4 as we are running out playing teams near the top.

There should be some clause in their fat contracts (I notice quite a few getting rewarded despite not achieving anything) that they get a reduced basic if they lose to relegation fodder more than 3 times in a season.

They are cheating the fans. Just look at Ibrahimovic, guy is 35 yet willing play his best in every game.

All week been reading how the Malaga camp went great etc etc. Utter b0ll0x

Lallana back to his old 26m.

Can sh*t as ever in midfield but managed to handle Vardy pace when shifting to CB.

Lucas was embarrassing when chasing Vardy but not his fault. Klopp's inept tactics to blame.

We need to have some steal especially in midfield. We have a team full of softies. It's embarrassing. Against these teams we look like boys playing men.

Klopp still hasn't learned. He needs to approach each game with different tactics. We are not Barca that need others to change their tactics playing against us.

Clyne in the past was rarely having bad games but this season especially last night was poor.

With Origi we look like playing with 10.

It was like a friendly game by our team. They didn't bother to chase

I think we have actually reached a point where we are the furthest away from what the Liverpool teams of old used to play like, certainly from a consistency point of view. It's no good beating Spurs all end up one week then allowing a shambles of a club like Leicester to humiliate us the next.

To me this is Klopps responsibility pure and simple. If you look at the players he's signed so far bar Mane they have been average at best. Karius is a liability, Klaven? Lucas is preferred at the moment.... tells you all you need to know. Wij is the typical player who didn't have the stomach for a fight at Newcastle and we part with over 20million to bring him in. Awful signing IMO.

Klopp has a method of playing that's been sussed long ago but he can't change it or even adapt it to cope with the Premier League. I said it at the start of the season that he would come under pressure and so it's proved to be.

I wouldn't be surprised if the owners sack Klopp if he fails to even qualify for Europe at the end of the season.

Given they are business men and focussed on revenue I would also expect Klopp to go if we don't get CL, particularly now we are sitting watching our rival overtake us into Top 4, securing silverware on the way while he stubbornly refuses to buy players to replace the imbeciles we have and handing a first class defender in Sakho out and so having to rely on the footballing kiss of death Lucas to replace him.
Klopp is on very thin ground. A win against Arsenal, although welcomed, will not change his predicament.

I would be gobsmacked if Klopp is given the bullet. Let's face it, Leicester were going to be completely unpredictable, and so it turned out to be. There was no fight in the team, only fear. Mig did well, but he was alone. Dear Jordan, please come back, there's nothing to forgive you for.
Lucas? Easy to blame the man, but he didn't pick himself. Out-paced from start to finish. Can? Oh dear. And he wants a new, improved contract. It begs the question, who with?

The front three? Leicester played on the break, defence at times seven handed. Fast ball up to Vardy, and the rest is history.

Our reserves. TA-A and Woodburn. Ready to step up to the plate? Well, the commitment is there, but not yet for them, through no fault of their own.

I'd leave Juergen with one name to ponder.

Sahko.

I hope he's back next season.

I have previously stated that Klopp is not the Messiah we hoped he would be. He has still not addressed the positions that needed strengthening under Rodgers GK,CB,LB and DM. We also need a new striker as Sturridge is now a busted flush

His press conferences are also becoming as cringeworthy and as boring and repetitive as Rodgers' were.

He needs to address things in the summer or he could be gone by Christmas.

We have stagnated as a club and are going to be vying with Everton for 6th place

========================
Some fans may call finishing 6th or 7th as progress.

Good job United won the league cup freeing up 6th as EL spot.

Progress from 8th...yes but it is not acceptable

I agree things are working at the moment, but it just can't last much longer.

Sturridge needs to have a go, Firmino needs to be benched and bring back Karius, and give Gomez a go alongside Matip and hell, try Moreno over Milner to give us an injection of pace and a left footer on the left.

Need to see a change, or we will just carry on down this path.

Trouble is if Klopp goes, there just isn't a better manager that we could attract.

Madness to get rid or even be talking about sacking Klopp when the man hasn't had the backing of the board yet.

Needs another season or even 2 and decent money to spend

Disgraceful you sacked the manager that gave you your best season in half a century.......Or was that Leicester.
