Not even surprised teams sit deep and wait for us to gift a goal

Lucas and Milner at the back plus Mignolet and I wish we had the excuse of injury but Lovren and Matip are ordinary at best.

The walking disaster (Mignolet) aside, Despite our usual massive possession stat the Hull keeper hasn't been tested. Once again we seem unable to provide the flair that will allow us to break down even a defensive pub team   

Klopp doesnt seem to realize that playing Can and Henderson in the middle is a recipe for disaster. Terrible setup from the manager yet again.

It's getting to a point now most teams must fancy their chances playing against us. They can either get 1 pt or 3 pts. They just need to be patient!

And where is our glorious attacking play? I have never seen such a magnificent collapse.

We need to throw caution to the wind this half and just go for it, we may as well lose 3 or 4 nil than 1 nil.

Not sure how we could win this when we are having 70% possession and NOT one fuckin shot at goal....NOT ONE 

Think our busiest attacking threat has been Milner, unfortunately he doesn't have the skill/agility to make the most of the unmarked opportunities he's had. not knocking Milner, just wish that the likes of Countinho or Lalanna we're being encouraged to run into the spaces Milner has found himself in

We have just been awful. Clearly the better team, but we don't look interested in scoring. It's like nobody wants to take the shot- we just want to try to walk it into the goal. We don't look anything like scoring, and have 2 strikers on the bench. Defensively we don't look like getting scored on.. Until they get any kind of set piece within 40 yards of our goal, then it's essentially 50-50 it goes in. Just look at the goals we've conceded in the PL in 2017

Sunderland- 2 pens
United- offside goal
Swansea- Corner kick
Chelsea- free kick
Hull- Corner kick

5 set piece goals in 5 games this year. You can't expect to pick up many points when you're giving a goal away to start the game.

We had 10 corners...did fuck all.

They had one...and scored from it.

Said it all 

We dont change tactics either just continue to plug away with our now glaringly obvious strategy and exposing our weaknesses.

Geez i dont know how we didnt score there

Shocking miss by Coutinho.. Of all people you'd want that to fall to it'd be him. Glad we've at least brought on a forward. Maybe he'll be interested in scoring.

Can is outta the way...could only be positive for our attacking play

Finally a sub that shows some guts... Sturrudge in for Can
