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

[SpurtingLesbian]

I only listened to it on the radio but it sounded like Klopp lost them that game. They were on top, Coutinho scored, they seemed to be breaking through at will. Then he took Coutinho off, put too many strikers on (I presume he was hoping to avoid extra time) and unbalanced the team. He strikes me as a very old-fashioned manager. Run aroun a lot, put your centre half up front and hoof it to him a la Mick Lyons for us in the seventies, throw strikers on in desperation. I'm not convinced he's a particularly clever manager, although next season should show us, if he gets players for his "system".

no mate, he pure invented trying to get the ball back when the opposition has it. Nobody had even thought about trying that before. Genius.

The only downer was sturridge is fit again and still looks really good

Yep, despite being a prize wally of immense proportions he is a very good player.

 

[ToffeeDoug]

Klopp blaming the defeat on "funny decisions" from the referee. The only funny decision I saw was the blatant penalty he missed (ignored).

How wonderful to see Lucas get his moment in the spotlight for his stupid foul at the end, what goes around must eventually come around for a player who has based his entire career on fouling players and largely getting away with it.

If these barstewards win tonight I shall be demonstrably raging. It's bad enough that my dog died today, 11 year old German Shepherd but this would really put the tin hat on it.

Sorry to hear about your dog, never expect it to hurt at much as it does do you?
Everton have been good for three whole games and Liverpool are out of the REAL cup and doing rubbish - hope this brings some solace mate x

I read that The rest of The pl.clubs supporters may start leaving early also. In protest for The high prices.

A red in my work hit the nail on the head, Liverpool lost its soul years ago to £££, the same fans who walked out in the league are the same fans that are probably going to pay way over the odds for the League cup final (something they don't care about I heard), some of the fans moaning about the ticket prices walked out in the 77th minute to go into the club store to spend a few bob on merchandise, sound logic mate ! Don't get me wrong I think charging £77 for a ticket is scandalous but they are happy to pay obscene amounts for replica shirts with sh**y slogans on the back like GR8EST 8 and crap to fit in with their cult.

Here's the best bit, for 20 odd years I have had LFC fans putting our club down to the gutters, when they are in trouble they spend £100m and more to bail them out, even at times when we have finished above them with a huge financial gap to plug, we never have such fortunes lying around. Yet when Man Utd or Chelsea slap them about with more money they claim its unfair, so here is my view on it:

If you claim for 20 years to be the best and compete with the big boys you should be prepared to pay the big boys prices when the owners want a return on their investments.

Now shut up crying wolf and get back in your holes.

Yours Sincerely

One of the gutter rats.

....they are lining him up for the Cup Final with City and I suspect his recovery is being timed because he has an eye on the Euros and perhaps a summer move.

He was never going to succeed in this league

 

[neil999]

He was never going to succeed in this league

how so?

 

[sageyefc]

how so?

His style of football doesn't cut it in this league any more. Hes tactically shocking as well

 

[MikeH72]

He's not so happy-go-lucky and everyone's bezzie mate when they get beat is he?

....interested in the quotes regarding their promising youngsters coming through, I looked last nights starters up. Other than 18 year old Pedra Chivrilla, I wouldn't particularly put the others in that category. More specifically;

Brad Smith is 22 in April and has 2 appearances to his name.
Kevin Stewart is 22 and has played once.
Tiago Ilori is 22 with 1 appearance.
Carlos Texeira is 23 with 2 appearances.

Compare that with some of our guys at a similar age;

John Stones is 21, played 66 games and received 7 full England caps.
Ross Barkley is 22, played over 100 games for Everton plus 19 full England appearances.

Behind those are proper fringe players like Galloway and Browning.

At least he didn't break his glasses.
