"I liked the game a lot tonight with the desire and power the boys show. It was incredible from them. " ""We won the game and that was the reaction we wanted to show. "
I must have watched a different game.
Thank you Jurgenn for all you've done, sad it seems to all be ending with a whimper.

Damage limitation imo. He was definitely watching some old youtube highlights :) He knew how atalanta plays and still managed to play into their hands. Genius :)

Seriously? I guess these days, no matter what you did, just one stumble enough for you to get all the bashes, sarcasms, the disrespect and all.

I already know that I should never come here whenever we lose games or trophies. And yet here I am. What's wrong with me?

We were really good for the first 15 minutes with quick progressive passing and good movement and then as the game went on we reverted back to players taking too many touches and our slow pointless passing. 20 passes along the back line 30 yards from our own goal before somebody turns back into trouble or tries to dribble through 3 opponent players.

The second half was dire. No passion, no urgency and no plan.

3 games now without a goal from open play and after Salah unforgivable miss half way through the first half I can't remember us creating another decent chance.

Klopp also said Trent was incredible in the first half which is mind blowing to me. Even my missus who knows nothing about football asked who was playing right back because there seemed to be nobody stood there every time we tried to attack or play out from the back. He played a few really good passes but he won the penalty on the one occasion he actually made a run down the right side.

Maybe his man management is better than yours? Instead of making headlines trashing players and deflecting blame he is still taking it on the chin and doing his shouting behind closed doors .

MK that made me chuckle.

You should have married Gareth Southgate. He knows all about right backs and has around 13 of them in every squad.

Time for trent to stick in the deep lying playmaker role with McAlister further up and Bradley RB then we might actually have some width as well as players who can find them.

I thought we were really good early on.
But second half was slow and crap again.
TAA I thought showed some class with his passing but you could tell he wasn’t fit and he was subbed off far too late. I hope he gets fit soon because he does bring something else to the team.
Tactics though again were shocking.

Klopp sayin we played well etc . he got to find some positive spin on it . we need to find our spirit from somewhere, ya never know, the players might actually belive him n put the performances in. league is still there for us. hard I know but possible.

@DirtyMic2ElectricBoogaloo, If you think Klopp will bash the players by calling them out name by name the way you would then, I fear that football analysis is simply not for you.

It's pretty disrespectful to a really well drilled Atalanta team to just say we were cr@p. I genuinely don't think I've seen a team so successful at cutting down all passing lanes and pressing to make simple passes difficult. They were 3-0 up, they played the perfect gameplan to make sure they went through overall.

Only thing that could have made a bit of a difference would have been some more direct running through the middle of the park, try to disrupt the man-marking and create some space, but it was a very difficult team to play against.
