    Let's be honest of course Murphy as a Liverpool fan along with all Liverpool fans want to see Rooney play as a DM :)

    The critiscism of Moreno has been poor at times tbh.
    The thing that annoys me with many of the english pundits (Neville,Carra) or others in the media. They are clearly biased towards English players. Clear example was on the BBC where Sinclair & Murphy was saying Rooney needs to now play as a DM lol. Also if David Luiz done what Cahill done Saturday there would be a 30 min segment on MNF about it.
    Neville in co-commentary regulary just brushes aside if an English player makes a mistake.

    Why would English people not stand up for each other, or favour each other? They commentators are English, as far as they are concerned their audience is English, the papers and TV companies they work for are English, the language they speak is English and the culture / fans of the EPL that go to matches are .. English. It's only natural they will be biased towards English players ffs.

    Really don't have any problem with what Ronnie said; I don't even think he's having a go at Klopp, more that he doesn't want to see the same thing happen to Klopp that happened to Rodgers.

    What become a laughing stock and end up managing in Scotland I don't see that happening to Klopp.

    Not sure why you seem to be getting angry using ffs.
    But I prefer players to be judged fairly & not what nationality they are. It is natural for english to favour there own I agree. It's probably why I don't listen to too much of the analysis on sky,bt,bbc etc as much of it is pundits just saying what there employer wants to reach the general public i.e The PL is the best in the world etc. Maybe this attitude could be why they have struggled an an International team.

We don't need herd mentality just because Klopp is the Messiah.

    Regarding the comment about Flanagan not getting a roasting, your feelings are probably correct but we will never know for sure, as Flanagan could never be as defensively inept as Moreno.

    It did need saying, fairly sure I said something harsh about him at the time myself (can't remember what offhand). And despite not being employed by the club he's obviously aware of towing the line because he deleted the criticism fairly sharpish. It mainly comes down to my dislike of Carragher tbh :pac: (he's a c0ck head).

    As for Flanagan, we'll agree to disagree.

    You can tell things are going well when the bickering and debate is based around retired players.

    I can understand where Ronnie Whelan is coming from with the comments about over exposure but I think Klopp is too smart to be made a fool of.

    Rogers was always kind of guarded in what he said. He wasn't telling you out straight what his opinion was and he did say some awfully stupid things. Those interviews after games where he said the team played well after getting beat by a poor team just won't get you any respect.

    I'm tuning in tonight to listen to Klopp, I enjoy listening to an intelligent soccer manager talking.

    Perhaps he got enough dominance and penetration on Saturday afternoon to do him for a while. Will be interested to see how Carra draws out Klopp on some aspects of his management, at least we know he won't be "towing the line" when choosing what to ask.

    Not angry - just a turn of phrase that doesn't read well! Indeed the English island mentality is alive and well if Brexit didn't remind us. The international team doesn't suffer for this reason though imo, in general they just lack the technical and tactical skills required for playing a different type of football at a high level. The game has evolved differently in England and the English type of game can be (attack-oriented / lack of midfield control etc) easily picked apart by other top level teams.

    .
    There's a way to say things though. Carra in fairness was just being an insulting dick about it. It's another example of people treating twitter like they're just having a chat with their buddies in the pub. Criticize, by all means, but do so professionally.

    It's an odd unfounded concern though...Rodgers got himself into trouble with his comments, because that's who he is. Whether it's in pressers, on Being Liverpool, interviews etc, he was a disaster with all his self-aggrandising faux philosophical words.

    Klopp is a very different person.

    Ah here there's no big secret here. The scouting reports for the Manchester clubs will have all this info on Liverpool at a minimum. Most of it we know ourselves watching week in week out. It's just refreshing getting such honest opinions, interested in hearing him speak about Burnley and Watford now

    It's always interesting listening to him, he's fascinating and keeps everyone in the room involved....

    Glad to see the manager say the main man is Firmino.

    Strange, you have a serious dislike towards two Liverpool legends in Carra and Stevie G, yet you will defend wasters like Enrique and Moreno, quite baffling tbh.

    Every man and his dog has criticised Moreno and rightfully so for some of the ineptitude he has shown, here's a quote from you in fact....Moreno, if he'd two brains he'd be twice as f*cking thick.

    So I don't see a problem with Carra doing exactly that. I wouldn't be advocating someone punching a legend like that in the head anyway. Show some respect please and thank you.

    Since Klopp mentioned Moreno was a great lad at training since being dropped I think some people will try and allude to the fact that they don't think Moreno is 100% sh1t despite that being their view on here recently.

    Kind of jumping on the next bandwagon before it leaves the station having misread the timetable :)

    Moreno is **** though. I don't think anyone can dispute that.

    When it comes to Moreno, Lovren, Mignolet, Lallana and other players isn't it great to have a manager who wants to coach and improve his players instead of blaming his tools.

    It may not work in all cases but at least he doesn't right them off and as has been seen with Lovren and Lallana especially they have improved so much under a manager who knows what he is doing.

    Carra annoying Klopp with replays of Klopp as a player falling over and giving goal away. Klopp looked a bit pissed off with that. It was a bit of a classless thing to do by Carra .

    He was only on for the pre-match stuff. not taking part in the actual analysis of this game, which is the right move on his part.

    At least with Lovren, Lallana and possibly Mig he had some sort of a brain with which to work. I have seen nothing to suggest that Moreno can offer anything to the club. I may eat my words (highly doubtful) but that's my view on him. And I hate to write off anyone that plays for Liverpool, but he's sent me over my tipping point.

    Klopp hasn't been shy about shipping players out he kept Moreno.

    That would make me think he sees something in him that he can work with if Moreno doesn't show anything over the season he will be shipped out next summer but Klopp seems to want to coach him.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 36,489 ✭✭✭✭BorneTobyWilde


    Milner is on fire. Sees more of the ball in current role than he did in midfield. It's like we have a 5 man midfield with Milner and Clyne pushing forward.
    Very much
    2
    5
    3
    ..when we have ball, can't see Moreno getting back in side.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,308 ✭✭✭Pyjamarama


    The whole Moreno has no brain thing really p*sses me off. He's had tons of good games for the club. He lacks concentration but that doesn't mean he's stupid, which is what "he has no brain" implies.

    And to say he's done nothing to show he could potentially be a success at the club is to be very short sighed and sensationalist. Doesn't mean he doesn't need to improve a ton to be a first choice reliable option for us but he clearly has talent and has displayed it plenty of times.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,508 ✭✭✭Daemonic


    Moreno has the physical attributes, pace, great stamina and pretty strong for a small'ish player. I think Klopp may have decided to take him out of the spotlight to work on all the other aspects and we'll see him in cup games and other occasional appearances to see how he carries what Klopp is trying to convey to him onto the pitch.
    Whether he can take the coaching on board will decide his future at the club.
