The basic point for me is this: you just cant play one way and expect to bag a major piece of silverware like the PL or CL. Look at the way City this year were able to mix up their play when they had to; and look at the way Madrid played on Saturday night in just one game where they switched from a solid defence with bodies behind the ball to contain Liverpool early on and then pushed them back and played a possession based game. Liverpool have one gear and they either press and blow teams away early on or they struggle to a hard fought draw/win or else lose those tighter encounters. Klopp has moaned about not having the bench Madrid have. It would make no difference because tactically he's got one string to his bow.

I've said before that Keita looks bang average. In the Bundesliga he might be able carry the ball over distance and prompt attacks, but here in this league he'll be dispossessed before he gets within 30-40 yards of the opposition goal. They spent about £55M on him IIRC. They need an upgrade on Milner and Henderson for sure, but I'm not convinced he's the solution in the engine room.

Thats it. I think Keita looks fine, a little like how Gana did when he first came but probably slightly more comfortable on the ball. He never stood out for Leipzig like Lookman did when I was watching him though. No doubt he'll be the saviour now, just as Karius was better than De Gea.

Can you imagine what it would have been like if they actually won? Lime Street renamed Mane Way, St George’s Hall draped in “hilarious banners”, and the full kit clowns out in full force. Hasn’t it been a beautiful, beautiful weekend? :D

Karius Avenue has a certain ring to it ;)

Klopp you think would have have supported him seeing as he brought him to the club
also bearing In mind what happened to Robert Enke also a fellow countryman and goalkeeper.
But Klopp is not the nice guy portrayed by the media and for me his face when Salah went off was a picture. It just screamed out that he knew the game was up.
 
As a rival teams supporter (and a dirty Mancster lol) I'v been made to feel welcome on this forum. And before any of yous soft lads say it, I'm not patting your heads like la.

If any of you fancy a pre match slurp in a decent (and friendly) Manchester watering hole, i'Il share a beer or two next season.

Liverpool fans need not apply!

Great mate thanks. I'd like to reciprocate your generous offer, so please meet me and some of the boys in The Lisbon whenever you're next in town. Ask for the Gentleman's Suite when you go in.
