Seriously lads, it was a draw, put the knives away and support the team. I'm not entirely sure a new defender would fix the problems we have anyhow and besides, we are stuck with what we have for now until at least January- we all know there were dreadful errors made in the window. Do we need to keep going on about it. If these same problems persist as the season goes on and klopp makes no changes, then perhaps we've earned the right to holler from the highest peaks. As it is, we are thrilling to watch going forward. Klopp has obviously been working on beating teams who put men behind the ball. If we can get a little consistency and perhaps confidence at the back, who knows how far we can go.

Mate I'm not being funny but it's the same old same old, week in week out
Month after month been going on for way too long now really fed up and tbh I think our attacking players are getting fed up of the shambles behind them
Really really frustrating starting to lose faith in klopp and don't even care what anyone has to say.
How we didn't buy a cb in the summer is beyond belief.

Ravinroge, you don't just buy a CB for the fun of it. That is just nonsense and the main reason we had so many poor players on the books for years. Klopp wanted Lovren replaced and went for VVD all in. He also went for Koulibaly but did not pursue that route further. If a CB does not improve us, why buy him? For the sake of saying, "Look we bought a CB". If he does not think he is good enuff, he won't be bought and that is the reality and I agree with that.

Oh BTW, what will you say when this new CB makes a mistake? Will you be on his back? Football is not an exact science in this area. The only thing you can do is to do your homework and get all the info you need on a player and then roll the dice. Nothing more.

Bingo you must be deluded if you think there's not a single centre back in the world other than van dijk who can improve our squad instead of matip lovren or klavan
Who said buy for the sake of it? How isit buying for the fun when it's blatant that's what we need?
Ok then so what your saying is just continue with our defence and hope our defence just improves, sorry mate ain't gunna happen end of.
And I can guarantee where still in this same position until there replaced.

I think we didn't get a defender cos we (and klopp) broke the rules and hadn't the money to sway Southampton, but I stick with my point. I'm not sure vvd comes in and fixes everything. I think the problems are deeper seeded. I think it's down to sorting set pieces and offering cover for a nervous back four in open play. I agree it's frustrating to watch the same problems pop up a little too frequently but we are where we are.

I'm not saying klopp is above criticism- I do however think it's a little early for such heavy criticism. I also think it's important to support the team when they win, lose and even draw against a decent Spanish team.
