There are a few too many people enjoying themselves saying I told you so about the Ox. This guy's first training session was just two weeks ago and, due to the heavy schedule, it's all been match prep and match recover since.

Klopp needs time to instil his philosophy on him, to get him playing his style. I'm still confident he'll prove his worth with us and we'll have another story like Lallana winning over the fans. The ox gets a pass from me till Christmas. By then I think the boo boys won't be so vocal.

Many people on this site would rather be proven right than see Liverpool succeed.

I would love to be proven wrong by the OX but I don't think it's going to happen.
Lallana was one of saints best players and captain when we signed him, it's very different.
I really just don't see how he improves out squad and only stops our promising young talent from getting a game.
Just my opinion and I have full faith in Klopp I just don't get the OX love in.

Did any of you go to the Tranmere match in 2016. Manes first game.

No time needed there. Didn't need to learn anything.

Oxlade has 120 games experience in the prem. Comes from a champions league team. What does he possibly have to learn when crossing a ball? When taking on a man? When making a ten yard pass? He was and is awful. 4o million are you kidding me.

Mane hadn't just spent 12 months playing left wing back in a team with no confidence, and the 5 years prior to that being used as a bit part player by an absolute imbecile of a manager.

Give the bloke a chance at least!

Careful having an opinion on AOC as some on here can't see the wood for the trees.

Top, the difference was Mane was brought in to play his natural game. AOC had been playing Wenger football for the last five years. He needs to unlearn that and then start playing Klopp football. It will take time but I'm confident well be impressed by the results.

Never been a fan of OX BUT he is an LFC player now and will get m support. Those slating him should give over and move on.

Bingo

Does that mean you could abuse players until they are signed by Liverpool. Lol! I remember you tore his undi and boxers for fun when he was at Arsenal! Lol
Now you realize the difference between having an opinion and supporting. They are totally different my dear friend!

Do people not understand that under the right manager and with the right coaching methods players can actually improve?! We seem to have this football manager mentality where each player has their own score for each attribute that can't be changed. Just give the lad time to work with the team and coaching staff he said himself he's come here to improve. Let's not kill him before he even starts!

I still can’t see that Oxlade can contribute anything meaningful to the team. He’s a very ordinary winger at best, his signing looks particularly stupid when you consider how awful our centre back options are and how weak we are in midfield.

Like our defenders and keepers are improving with every training session and game under Klopps reign Ings. That what you mean.

ACO is a player who has always been full of promise but never delivered on a regular basis. I think and he himself has admitted confidence is a big issue of his, now I'm not making excuses for someone like that he makes enough money blah blah blah etc etc etc but I do think klopp will manage to unlock something in him. Now I'm not expecting a mane but a very useful playe rlong term.

Klopp did him no favours playing him in a team like that if he is low on self esteem he'd be bette restarting against a team we'd hammer get him up and ready instead he set him up for a potential failure as has happened and eveyone on his back. Almost everything he tried failed but atleast he tried something in the opposition half the only other player to try was woodburn and our left back. Everyone else was happy with sideways passing.

John

Why did he not go to a nidtable team where he would be given guarantee roles to reshape his career?

{Ed001's Note - because he wanted to play for Liverpool. He wanted to play for the team he supports.}

Agreed Putney. Due to high number of games there cannot be as much training and the intensity of the training there is can't be that high surely.

I don't get fans who take pleasure in saying "see our new player is crap! told ya so" I bet you feel real rosey when you hit reply. Give the lad a chance it was his first start playing along side a few reserves among some first teamers. He is a quick skillful and strong little player who has a decent football brain. There are lapses in his game but give klopp a chance to develop him. Klopp is good but he's not uri geller!
