Liverpool FC Forum

The mental state of the team is so demonstrably far from the title winning/challenging and CL winning/challenging teams is absolutely incredible. The body language from both Klopp and the team is depressing in the extreme.

Personally I really don’t think it is simply about team investment. That has absolutely nothing to do with our ridiculous injury record and the alarming drop off in form that applies to numerous players. Players such as VVD and Jota coming back from long term injuries are difficult to recognise as the players they once were. Nunez and Gakpo have shown glimpses of brilliance but they certainly couldn’t be accused of making the difference expected given what they cost. Chelsea in the last 6 months have spent £543m net. Liverpool have spent £56m net during the same period. They both appear to be fighting for a mid table finish.

I wish I knew the answer. Klopp is paid more than the CEO of Apple at £16m a year which is crazy in itself. If ever there was a time to prove that he is really worth that bizarre level of remuneration then it is now !!

Last night was perhaps one of the worst performances I have seen from a Liverpool team in a long time and that was after being humiliated by City !!

That was the worst game I had seen in a long time. Absolute tripe from both sides

Not even going to comment on any specific player but they all need to give their heads a wobble and cop the fook on. It's Liverpool they play for not fooking Everton. No leadership and no desire.

I don't think klopp will stay beyond this season. Just looks drained and lost after every game. The players look like they just aren't buying it anymore either.

Regardless of what happens with the manager folks need to realise that we have far to many players who are average or just not good enough. A few have gone past their use by date as well.

Anyway 10 points off 4th with no games in hand. 10 games left to play so need a big reaction against Arsenal on Sunday.  Beat them and it will have been 4 points from a tough week.and we have a good run of winnable games coming up. We need to apply some sort of pressure if we want above us to crack.
