Liverpool FC Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2015/16 (*EVERYONE READ MOD POST in OP)

5starpool · 13-09-2015 8:21pm

I'm tired of watching us be crap. I'm tired of expecting us to not get a good result, no matter who we are playing. I'm tired of watching us playing players in positions that don't suit them in a formation that is ponderous and ineffective. I'm tired of not being able to fully believe in the manager.

If we could get Klopp in then we should. It might not work, but it's becoming clearer and clearer that Rodgers in charge is not working either. I don't like us making willy nilly changes to our manager, but I don't think that would apply at the minute.

We have 4 home games in a row now in all competitions. If by the end of that run of games he has lost matchday support due to bad performances or results then it's just a matter of time by then. Sturridge coming back might force him to play a better formation nearly which might be his only way out at this point.

It was known the day he signed for the club. It was among the list of things that caused fans to raise their concerns. It was the foundation to many suggesting he was a spoofer.

I prefer to use more moderate language myself in order to avoid unnecessary arguments but the core of their arguments have been proven accurate.

The like of Alan and Lloyd got a disgusting amount of abuse on this forum for their views.

While I'd say we're all pretty much singing from the same hymn sheet now lets not pretend Mr Alan and Lloyd were saint's in all this . They both specialised in combative blanket statements and in Mr Alan's case if you disagreed with him you were deluded(now clearly we were, but that's neither here nor there:o). That was bound to get peoples backs up and see them catch some flack in return. I can't help but feel had they used more qualifiers like IMO and couched their arguments a little better, people, and I include myself in this, would have seen past the name of the poster and maybe come around to their way of thinking a lot sooner.

Ah Jaysus. Me heart bleeds. They might be right about a lot of things, but their delivery wasn't always without unnecessary condescension and questionable timing. It's gonna attract heat. Came as no surprise to either, I would imagine.

But I empathise with them having the current bittersweet burden of this foresight, because 'when they're right, we're ****e'. And nobody wants that.

So we are on a two game losing streak and it's sack the manager time. Not really how I wanted us to be compeating with Real Madrid.

Agent Coulson · 13-09-2015 9:09pm

Klopp to be the next Dutch manager is starting to do the rounds out on social media.

We're on a streak where we've lost 7 of 14 league games picking up a mere 13 points on that stretch. So don't be giving it all that about '2 game losing streak' or '5 games into a new season'.

LuckyLloyd · 13-09-2015 9:14pm

I've been posting here in the various guises of this thread for 8 and a half years. In that stretch of time my viewpoint has been a majority viewpoint for periods; and a severe minority at other junctures. I post the way I post.

As I said earlier this morning, I'd love a winner like Klopp or Ancelotti to come in so we could all get behind them and see it the same way (for a period at least).

Are you blind? There's a lot more to it than a 2 game loosing streak. He should of went after that Stoke defeat.

His determination to have Lovren in before Sakho is a sin.

I initially agreed with a lot of what they said but since they had to swallow a bit of pride it's become caricature stuff. Any 'heat' they got was from those firmly entrenched on the 'The Rodgers can do no wrong side' not exactly people worth listening to.

Jon Stark · 13-09-2015 9:39pm

It will be interesting to see if the current state of things will effect Rodgers' schedule for Sturridge. He really is the last role of the dice that Rodgers can make.

MD1990 · 13-09-2015 10:16pm

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-3232996/Luis-Suarez-told-look-Philippe-Coutinho-left-Liverpool-reveals-Steven-Gerrard.html

Before Luis Suarez left Liverpool’s training ground for the last time he spoke to me about Philippe Coutinho. ‘Make sure you look after him,’ Luis said of Philippe.
That told me how much Suarez rated Coutinho as a player. I knew they were close, because all the South Americans and Spaniards loved Luis.
But it struck a chord with me when Luis singled out Philippe as our most special young talent. It echoed my own view.

Philippe is wonderfully gifted and I expect him to become Liverpool’s leading player.
Many Liverpool fans already regard him as our main man.
He has just signed a new deal and he and his wife — who are a lovely couple — seem settled here.
But I also know that the Spanish giants, Barcelona and Real Madrid, will come looking for Philippe in a few more seasons, just like they did with Luis.
And that’s when it will get tricky for Liverpool because the lure to go to one of those two clubs is so strong for any South American or Spanish player.
Until that happens, Liverpool should really treasure Philippe.

would agree with this . Coutinho is our best player & unfortunetly I see him replacing Iniesta at Barca in a few years unless we get top 4.

mav79 · 13-09-2015 10:23pm

The team should be built around Couthino, get players in front of him making runs and have him deeper than the traditional no. 10. He is the one player we have that can pick the ball up in the centre of the pitch and go past a couple of players instead of hitting it back to the defenders.

Lovern was not the reason we lost, he actually played well, the reason we lost is we had no idea of what we were supposed to be doing.
I was a massive fan of Rodgers till that Stoke defeat, it was obvious that he had lost the players then, it's more obvious now , we need to change the manager.
I'm not convinced that klopp is the answer however, but we do need to change.

Once the players stop playing for the manager, well there is only one outcome.

Brendan gave us one heck of a ride two seasons ago, wether that was down to his doing or players who have left, is debatable, but he /they almost won us the league, we really should have....anyways that in the past,
But that magic is gone....it won't come back under Brendan ....
we now look clueless, sure the new players might settle and start to produce some kinda form,but as someone once said 'form is temporary, class is permanent '
And we are a million miles away from being class..
Brendan thank you for your efforts, but it really is time for change.....and it has to come soon, very soon.

Klopp taking the Dutch job rumour seems to be gathering legs. Time for a muffin basket. Stuffed with millions of euros.

Harry Palmr · 13-09-2015 10:50pm

Why would Kloppy want a part time job with the Dutch? Hardly strikes me as his thing at this point. What's more they are worse than Liverpool right now! (just)

Neatherlands manager is only in place for two games, and it looks like they're missing out on the Euros.

He'd be better off just waiting till next summer if he wants a National job.

Grayditch · 13-09-2015 10:58pm

I hope the rumour persists, creating a perceived 'ship sailing away' situation. And that it's on the back page of the Boston Globe tomorrow. Ok that's a bit much to ask.

There is an absolute reek of bullsh*t coming from this.

The Dutch side are in awful form, will miss out on Euro2016 barring a miracle and the fact that Klopp is German born and bred means he would be slaughtered in Germany for taking the Dutch job, especially when the German job could well be available next year.

Of all the jobs he could be linked with, this is the maddest one.

I can't see Klopp tolerating the transfer committee, and FSG won't abandon it, at least not yet.

Didn't he have a similar setup at Mainz and Dortmund? He wants to work with a DoF anyway.

That might be the way ahead, scrap the TC and bring in a DoF, it's what FSG wanted originally.

Harry Palmr · 13-09-2015 11:09pm

Well the TC is basically moribund it seems to me, Rodgers got everyone he wanted this summer and a DoF isn't quite the same thing in my book - for a kick off the typical example in a Bundesliga club is the real boss. The manager is in fact the senior squad coach, he has far less input with regard to the vision thing. a good DoF is worth far more to a club than any coach.

It wasn't messy, but I can't see FSG being completely stubborn regarding the transfer committee's setup if Klopp is likely to come.

He had a 3 party committee, with Watzke, Zorc and himself, at Dortmund and it worked well most of the time, although there were some poor purchases aswell, like Immobile.

Turtyturd · 13-09-2015 11:10pm

'The Rodgers' for DOF.
