So so disappointing result. First half not much in it and getting back to 1.1, there was hope. But in all honesty we just look like we are playing with no confidence, when we have chance to move it quickly forward we end up back in our own half, usually with 2 or 3 of our midfielders. Yjiago needs to play more forward or am not sure what he offers apart from a yellow or red card.
So a must has to be to get Hendo or Fab into midfield ideally both but that might be to soon, if not why go out and but CBs. We are in a fight for 3rd or 4th. Klopp and the team have a week to use to get things right. Am sure we can turn this around but wonder how many more defeats before Klopps position comes under the spotlight.

Klopp just said the performance was good apart from individual errors, if he really thinks that we are in deep trouble,

OP, that’s all well and good BUT today and as tough a customer City is, I thought we played well on the while. We stayed in the game and at 1-1, anything could happen. And then this guy from absolutely nowhere came to Anfield, kidnapped AB1 and boom went the dynamite. I am still stunned out of my wits.

Specialk, do you think he was saying that for those listening, but had something different for the lads themselves in private?

I would be amazed if he told the lads that performance was acceptable. Game summed up for me first half Wijnaldum burst foward and it was 4 v 4 rather than have a go at skinning your man and creating a chance he stopped, slowed down and passed back. City got back and we played around at the back for a while. We are at our best with quick high risk football. We look now like we did when BR got sacked. Possession more important than goals apparently. No one wants to take a chance to be positive just in case they loose the ball. So much fear at the moment.

Agree with that Oli. At 1-1 it could’ve gone either way with neither team looking more threatening than the other. Sadio should’ve scored in the first half and they got a soft penalty but that’s all they offered going forward.
Second half they isolated the full backs a bit better and got the goal but again didn’t look like adding to it. We managed to get a soft penalty ourselves and put it away, game on.
Then bang. In the space of a few minutes the game is gone. Not because we are the worst team in the world or they are the best but simply because Ali had a moment and gifted them the game on a silver platter. That’s it.
I’m not having a go at Ali at all he’s been brilliant for us but today he had a shocker. All players have them.
If Ederson had done what Ali did it would’ve been us with a comfortable win and everyone saying how well we played and how little City managed to create against a makeshift back 4. Fine margins that today went against us.
