Can the Eds shed any light on the Gerrard situation? Any chance of a return?

{Ed002's Note - Try the search engine.}

Would he be a good influence?

Anyone get the impression that Klopp isn't interested?

Love Gerrard and he was one of the best, but if he was given a role, then surely it would be far away from the training ground.

23 Oct 2016 00:02:38
In the best interest of Liverpool Football Club. I sincerely hope that Jurgen Klopp is NOT interested in having Gerrard anywhere near. He's history and let it remain that way.
Klopp is a breath of fresh air to our beloved Club. There seems to be a fantastic atmosphere amongst the players. No one is the big ' I Am ' anymore.
Let's keep moving forward, and not being dragged backwards!
Time to move on. and be grateful that we have a fantastic Manager, as well as all the Staff he's chosen to work with him.

23 Oct 2016 01:02:21
Gerrard should stay exactly where he is.

23 Oct 2016 02:01:32
I don't want him back as a coach or anything else.

23 Oct 2016 10:51:20
Hey that's not right now. Despite all that is spoken on here, of which most may be true, we have to remember he stayed loyal and gave liverpool his best days (years) when he couldve left to win trophies with any club he wanted.

Who knows where liverpool would have landed up if Gerrard hadnt stayed with the club.

And now people don't want him back even in a coaching role?

23 Oct 2016 11:48:58
Its a bit Randy Ryan at Utd.

If Stevie wants to be a top coach drop down the leagues build your team to suit that divisions style of play and build your credibility.

Sometimes the great players who things came naturally to don't make great coachs as they did not struggle to make the grade and so find it impossible to lead players to be the finished article.

Stevie is and always will be a Liverpool legend and I hope he does make it as a coach and cimes back to us in 5- years time if and when it suits the club.
But it has to be earned.

As we didn't win last week it would be great if we dedicated this win to little Xavier. This one was for you little man.

22 Oct 2016 23:33:06
Spot on mate.

23 Oct 2016 01:05:23
Absolutely, Irish.

23 Oct 2016 03:16:11
Hey irishrover. Thanks so much for that support. Even tho the game was on 2.30 am here in brisbane i still get up to watch it.

This post really touched me all the support from you all.

23 Oct 2016 07:29:31
To Xavier. You'll never walk alone.

23 Oct 2016 21:39:19
I agree to Xavier the win was for you . YNWA.

22 Oct 2016 21:01:58
Always happy when Liverpool win and they deserved to win today, however they need to learn when to shut games down quicker, we had the 2 goals when it became apparent the 3rd goal was not coming ok fine take a 2-0, the last 10mins were all of our own making and not necessary imo, having said that it was a important win, home form is going to be vital to our ambitions this season, we are not top tonight because once again we could not keep a clean sheet, we need to stop giving away cheap goals because sooner or later it will cost us big time, the attacking display was a joy to watch however, we need to find a happy balance.

22 Oct 2016 23:26:59
Great post.
But I think the only way this team can defend is by attacking and closing down the space asap.
It showed how we tired a little bit in the last 20 minutes.

23 Oct 2016 00:30:32
Think they could have switched to a 4-2-3-1 (doesn't alter the team on the field to much) Put a second d minded player on deep and still maintain an attacking attitude.

23 Oct 2016 01:09:16
I get your points but we should also have taken at least two of the clear chances we created and job done. I do agree that we should know when to just shut up shop and control the game.

22 Oct 2016 20:40:05
if anyone read my post on the other posts pages:

19 wins to go!

have a great week ahead.

22 Oct 2016 21:14:15
Why? 19 won't be enough to win the league.

22 Oct 2016 21:46:05
We have 20 points now. with 19 wins we will be at 77 points. Combined with those inevitable draws, I think it will be enough.

22 Oct 2016 20:25:57
Another great win, ok so they sccored against us. it is what it is, we won, another win another 3 points, onto the next game. YNWA!

22 Oct 2016 20:03:55
One thing I have enjoyed this week is asking Man U supporters. don't you wish you had klopp?

22 Oct 2016 23:35:40
If Utd scrape into top 4 this year Mourino could very likely win the champs league with them next year by playing the same tactics he used on us.
Hes done it with lesser teams.

22 Oct 2016 20:00:28
Match review ed?

{Ed001's Note - will do it in a bit after I have eaten mate.}

22 Oct 2016 22:08:11
Ed1 are you a black widow? Eating your mates like that.

22 Oct 2016 19:09:20
I really do despair when it comes to our goalkeepers.

Karius is so lax when he comes out for the ball

That should never have been a goal.

22 Oct 2016 19:23:01
Migs scares me less to be perfectly honest.

While they both have faults I rate migs higher.

22 Oct 2016 19:35:08
2 comedy posts of the year.

22 Oct 2016 19:38:11
When Karius signed, one of the eds (not 1 or 2) said that he would take time to settle and that he WOULD make mistakes. Evidently a man/ woman who knew what they were talking about. Fortunately the mistakes aren't costing us points, they may do in the future but that's the way it goes.
Give him some time guys.

22 Oct 2016 20:05:39
Can't some of you just give the lad some time,

De Gea was weak in the air when he first arrived but Fergie stuck by him and said he would be top class. Maybe we should stick by ours and if he gets anywhere near De Gea'a current level, we'll have a top GK.

Let's back our players and help build his confidence

Keep the faith! YNWA!

22 Oct 2016 20:06:04
Spot on, Sid. Both post make no sense. Karius had a solid game bar being caught under the ball once which he has to work on but his distribution is top class. The goal was not his fault nor was it anyone's fault. It was off a ricochet and they score. Karius will get his chances as Klopp has said so his detractors need to get over it and themselves because Klopp has confidence in him.

22 Oct 2016 20:36:54
lol already calling him when he has barely began it's actually quite pathetic, give the lad time, mistakes happen, he's young, how does he improve if he's sat on the bench? he needs game time. I hope he's on every single game. The most important thing is support from the fans.

22 Oct 2016 23:42:58
The only thing Mingolet have proved since he signed, is that he will not improve. He have been costing us goals and points for years now and he had premier league experience when we signed him. Karius is younger, does a lot of things better than Mignolet already, while trying to adabt to the league and he is just getting started. Why anybody would drop him to the bench for Mignolet is beyond me. Slating him is nothing less than outrageous. He needs the season! Atleast his mistakes isn't costing us points at the moment.

23 Oct 2016 03:37:52
Ive yet to see anything from Karius to suggest he is an upgrade on Migs. I am hoping he will improve with time but so far he hasn't produced. c'mon Karius, prove me wrong please.

22 Oct 2016 17:16:03
For anyone who still thinks that Henderson only passes sideways/ backwards (Mentioned a lot after the UTD game) have a look at this stat. Henderson has passed into the opposition half the 2nd most in the whole league. Stats can be deceiving, but I personally think is difficult to argue with this one.

22 Oct 2016 20:08:40
It's his detractors that make such unfounded and deluded comments. Those of us who actually watch games don't really need stats to make that point. We have our eyes.

For the second week Spurs have given us a chance to capitalise. Hope we can.

22 Oct 2016 17:01:56
And Arsenal, win by 2 and we go top 😜.

22 Oct 2016 09:40:14
It's all about the first goal:
An early goal for LFC and you can open the flood gates. Anything else - a goal for WBA or a goal less first half and this game will be a struggle.
I'm going for the first option, a 4-0 LFC win and for some reason I fancy Origi to get a goal 😎.

22 Oct 2016 09:49:19
That's what I'm hoping for too Ron, get that early goal and work on that.

22 Oct 2016 11:28:00
like your optimism guys, keep it;)

22 Oct 2016 11:10:52
Workman like today for me. West Brom will be difficult to break down, so a steady 2-0 win for me. Mane to get back in the grove today with a brace.

22 Oct 2016 07:33:37
Ed missing you and bennys repartee in the podcasts, please bring them back. Especially loved the special guests and terrible joke of the day.

On another note Karius looks a shadow of himself and i had really high hopes for this lad. Maybe he needs to make that one good hollywood save that kick starts his confidence. I really don't know what's wrong with him, but funnily enough we have not lost a game with him between the sticks so that is a good sign.

22 Oct 2016 08:49:33
I agree about the podcasts, would be great to have them back again.

Karius needs time, still young and I think its a little early to judge him. I personally want to see him on every game, I have no doubt he'll end up been our #1 for quite some time.

Id also like to see Ward next season coming through the ranks, the kid looks special and deserves a shot in my opinion.

22 Oct 2016 12:05:07
Not heard anything from Benny from a long time. Guess I am the special guest for the upcoming Podcast.
lol you are dead Ed01 😂.

{Ed001's Note - we only stopped because we couldn't find any guests to match the quality of you Harry. Honest.}

22 Oct 2016 13:32:12
The quality of Harry eh ed? You not got an asylum anywhere near you?

{Ed001's Note - the inmates are too busy helping out on the websites....}

22 Oct 2016 17:05:05
Utd pages. .

22 Oct 2016 14:49:43
So that's where you found ed002!. It's starting to make sense! The court order keeping him from kiddies and all.

{Ed002's Note - You may soon be suprised.}
