Klopp calling out the Anfield atmosphere embarrassing he’s got to do that!
Place been like a church Utd game I thought the tv was on mute.

Jay Dub Red, exactly what he should do which is quite disappointing. The way the fans allegedly abandoned the players in parts of the Utd game was quite deplorable and the fact that Klopp had to say what he said and told those with tickets who aren't ready to support the team from start to finish should stay home and give their tickets to someone else, is what I find sad.

Ive been lucky enough to see Liverpool v united at Anfield and the place was absolutely rocking for the whole game, couldn't believe how flat the atmosphere was on Sunday.

It’s a strange one and I believe it’s modern day society. The kop is always bouncing but then the majority of the rest of the stadium is pretty flat with plenty of passionate fans in there trying to creat an atmosphere but outnumbered by people who seem to go in looking for peace and quiet.

Believe it or not a lad in front of me on Sunday decided to FaceTime his Mrs half way through the 2nd half for about 10 mins of the game.

I didn’t know whether to be disappointed or impressed as I’ve never been able to get signal in there ?

Another thing that disappoints me is fans leaving 5 mins before half time and before full time just to beat the queues.

With 40% of the uplift going to corporate I don’t expect it to improve either. It’ll probably get worse.

Good he called it out. Been saying since last season our atmosphere for over 90% of our games has been nothing short of pathetic. I have lost count of the amount of games where we have been so quiet that you could literally hear a pin drop, and that’s no exaggeration. That reputation of having the best atmosphere has long gone, long long gone. Off the top of my head Brentford, Palace and Fulham’s ground beat us by a long mile. There are countless others but those are the ones that spring to mind and that’s just in the league. If we factor in European grounds we fall further down the line.

@JK23: I could never figure out why people leave a bit early when the game hasn't been lost. If you are 3-0 down with 5 minutes to go, may be. But under Klopp we have scored so many late goals that it makes it even more difficult to fathom this. There were quite a few that left on Sunday too.

The atmosphere on Sunday was great for the first 15 mins, which mirrored what was going on, on the pitch. It's a chicken and egg situation. Do the fans feed off the players or do the players feed off the fans.

Regards to fans leaving early, I've never left a game early in my life. However, with the capacity increasing, this is only going to get worse, with it getting more difficult to get away from the area and people trying to avoid this.

I totally agree that the atmosphere is generally better at other grounds. This is also partly due to that support being the same every other week, unlike at Anfield when every game there are thousands attending who are there for the first time and are too busy taking photos.

Gotta ask why is it so quiet though, a lot of the local fans find it very hard to obtain tickets, the corporate seats are for day trippers ( who get charged triple prices ) so not much atmosphere from there, and the regulars season ticket holders have seen every type of game, I think it will get worse especially if super league comes to fruition . so whose fault is it, the fans or the club.

Problem is if you sing and shout then your phone video gets wobbly and the audio gets distorted. Its even worse when we score in the middle of a selfie opportunity.

We need to bring Bobby back just for his song.

Bobbys and Jota’s songs are def a crowd favourite and actually get the crowd going.

We need some new songs for the lads on match day because chanting Nunez 37 million times just doesn’t seem to do it.

Rome - it's an interesting question to pose. What is the purpose of having fans in the ground? are they there to be entertained or are they there to be a part of the entertainment?

I think Klopp is trying to appeal to the "this means more" mantra of the club and re-embed the psyche that the fans are as important to the result as the players on the pitch. So with that in mind I tend to think more that the fans should be there singing and cheering regardless of what's happening on the pitch.

Just maybe he’s trying a bit of a wind up game for the arsenal game me thinks ?.
