Teams dont even bother attacking us anymore

Goalkeeping error
Corner
Breakaway goal
Defensive lapse

One or all is pretty guarenteed and we won't breakdown a packed defence

Its actually getting boring now

Despite not really shaping this squad (ie only 1 active window) Klopp really needs to up his game

Great minds and all that

It doesn't help that we have so many out of form players at present

Very easy to beat us.

Who knows where our next victory is coming from, it could be a while yet the way we are playing.

Dismal depressing stuff.

There are two things you need to break teams down.

1. Is to move the ball quickly and try and go forwards at the same time taking risks and

2. Make the pitch as big as possible by getting your wide players out wide and stretch the play with runners in behind that allows space for our midfield to run into.

Early on we were scoring goals left right and centre because we had so many players in the box and our front were so narrow but in the box to get a rebound or a second ball. Now with packed defences there is no space at all and a lack of goals. A bit of luck is needed too which we haven't had this year yet.

Agree 100%

I thought the rot had possibly stopped against Chelsea,wishful thinking.Any chance we can recall Ward from Huddersfield.It can be turned around Conte started badly but changed the system.We are gonna have to do the same!!!!

Put coutinho back on 70k and see what happens perhaps?

All that new found cash is weighing him down and he can not turn as swiftly as before.

Perhaps getting Coutinho more central will help and maybe sticking Ojo out on the left to stretch the play a bit with Mane on the other side...

Sometimes you need a target man for these kinds of games to occupy the opposition's centre backs. With time Origi might be that player for us but he's bang out of form just like everyone else.

Giving Ojo a run and playing Coutinho centrally is something I would like to see as Ojo will give us more width, pace and ability to beat a man.

We badly need another WF with pace and movement to stretch teams.

For me it's simple. We need to go 4-4-2.

We have been sussed out. Get Origi to play centrally with Firmino or Sturridge.

I'm not sure that Ojo is ready both in terms of his development and recovery from injury but if he's fit it can't hurt to throw him in. Who do you drop to allow Coutinho to move inside though? Lallana is the obvious choice but he's been one of our most important players this season.

Coincidence or down to the manager?

OP, I thought after reading your article you were talking about us! No WUM. I really do feel your pain.Chelsea have been ruthless this season, no one else really has. What are they doing different? If you get our managers to figure that out, maybe something changes.

op..pretty much spot on. However if u compare early on in the season to now, well nobody is busting to get in the box; 2 months ago we had 5 or 6 players in the opponents box, now its none or 1.

Couts certainly isn't the first player to get a huge increase in his wages, followed by a meltdown in achievement.

Self-confidence in the team is completely non-existent.

I think we missed a trick not going into the transfer market this January, it all started to unravel when Cout got injured and Mane left for the AFCON.

Two players there we can't do without and no ready made replacements. And to make matters worse one winger we did own that was coming back was allowed to go to Hull, Wtf!

By the time Cout and Mane are back the confidence has gone in the rest of the team.....

Klopp has done a superb job but he's working at a club that can't compete with other top clubs when it's comes to attracting new players,

Until that barrier is broken we can look forward to more of the same I'm afraid.

Buying player in January is notoriously difficult. There are the occasional exception to the rule, but generally it is difficult to bring in quality, after all who wants to sell their best players in the middle of a season?

What I find odd is that we made a profit in the summer, considering the increase in revenue's. If we want to compete then the owners have to be willing to push the boat out. However we want to do it a different way. A way which is difficult to succeed given the spending power of the competition.

I'm not fooling myself that we can compete with the financial muscle of those teams, but in the summer we made things hard for ourselves by making a profit on transfer fee's.

I'm 100% behind our manager. He has had us playing consistently well for a sustained period. However, there are some glaring weaknesses in the squad which are being exposed. Forget get about signings, he needs to find a way with the players he has to make us efficient and consistent again with the players he has, because there is still the CL spot to play for.

Still true.

Fack me, don't you have a club to support.
