ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

You look at the way Fulham played against us in the second half compared to the way Fulham played against Liverpool and you do wonder whether it is because Everton were just terrible or whether it’s a psychological thing when a side plays Liverpool

When they don't turn up - they really dont turn up. That seems to be happening more and more frequently
 

Sad news about Houllier. He did a lot for the cardiac unit here. He seemed a decent guy.RIP

Definitely, I have posted my thoughts on the todays football thread so won't repeat them all. But I think he really laid the foundations for them in the 21st century, gave lots of younger players a go and improved them and was unfortunate not to win the league in 2001-2. A sad loss for the club, and more importantly for the family. RIP.

They seem to get stuck in certain away games. Last season was probably the one, for 12 months they found an answer to it, but outside of that they've always got a bit stuck. They miss VVD at the back I think. Sides can hit balls behind them and turn them round over and over, which really halts their momentum.

Klopp's comments seem bizarre after the game to me. A side who are 18th with 1 win and 7 points from 11 are not going to look to play free flowing football against you. His defence is absolutely wide open for balls into space behind as well. Arnold goes missing positionally and the two cb's are really slow. Turning them round is the strategy you'd employ.

I do think he's just highlighting how to play them for teams away from home now. Fans for opponents will help too, the roar of encouragement they can get. Another injury for Matip as well, after he naively keeps picking him game after game, when we all know he can't stand up to that level of exposure.

I think that Fulham played really well. Are you just referring to the second half?
