decent attack but good defence wins the title. Its not there yet. summer window maybe?
Coutinho's hit more from distance in the last 3 seasons than Gerrard did over his whole career with about 65,000 less attempts.
Didn't him and Suarez combined cost like £20m squid?
Matip is easily in the top 5 center halfs in the league, at 25 you can only imagine he is going to get better.
Klopp rates Sakho technically but he doesn't like his work ethic and attitude, if he can find a way turn that around then he would be a good option as a partner.
Klavan and Lovren are doing a decent enough job but LFC should be looking for a better option then either of those.
Milner has been fantastic since his transition to LB, however I think that if Klopp signs anyone in January it will be a LB. The kid from Schalke seems to be Klopps target.
As for RB, no problems there as Clyne is one of the best in the league. Probably a toss up between Zabaleta, Clyne, Coleman and Walker.
Biggest problem Klopp faces is keeping Coutinho, especially now Barca are showing interest.
I think Coutinho is a little different, personally.
He has come out and said how much he loves this club, he genuinely looks like he is having the time of his life joking around with Firmino and he is starting to boss it once more.
Amid speculation earlier in the season, he came out and said he was not going anywhere and the club said he is not for sale.
Suarez - obviously wanted to leave. Said it in the press, got his agent to say things, the whole thing was Suarez wanting out.
Sterling - Wanted more coin, fame, was unsatisfied with his slow steady ascent to fame and chased the money to City.
If there's ever a situation to retain a player and stop this cycle of selling off our best players, it is now. He loves the club, the club and fans love him. Add to that, he is hitting some form now and will probs bag 5 more goals before Xmas.
That being said, if he was sold, the club has screwed up and we have taken steps backwards.
Well yeh.
Don't really know what's going to happen.
Like really, I guess a lot of Liverpool fans are saying, who cares if we win 5-3 or 6-1 or 5-4, we win and get the three points. Which is completely valid. Just as valid as a team like Chelsea over the years grounding out 1-0 wins and saying they were doing enough. There's no right or wrong way to win the league.
I mean, the point people are making of our poor defence is that it's going to cost us games.
Which it may well do.
If we play this exciting style and concede, that's the way it is, live and die by the sword.
But while we are collecting 3 points it's a bit hard to argue with.
Obviously a surefire defensive line would be great. But really, I'm not convinced we are as frail as previous years.
id bet on one thing for sure though, that if it gets down to a one game scenario against Chelsea to realistically secure the title that Klopp won't get out coached like Rodgers did.
b'lee dat.
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the team that accumulates the most points in the season almost always win the league and if getting 3points for a win, no matter the margin or scoreline, lead to a greater accumulation of said points thus giving the team with the greatest number of accumulated points the greatest chance to be declared the winner of said title ......it's been a while since I was in school but I thought that's what mathematics was....I could be mistaken though...I am getting on.
Quite possibly, as others may also drop points they are expected to win, some ref may actually see one of Costa's on field assaults and he will be suspended for a run of games, arsenal could have their usual Christmas drop off, man city could implode....who knows what will happen...all I'm saying is I'll take more goals for than against and 3 points as often as possible and let the chips fall where they will
I always think that but there are so many out there who think the superior team below was Barcelona...

Only one stat matters.
Chelks are the real deal but Liverpool are red. yeah n all that
Have to say I'm amused at klopp saying we need to keep Woodburn grounded and was scared the media were gonna talk him up. Club sends an official email "a star is born". Did they not communicate about this?
Man it's tough supporting the Jets and Liverpool.
There's some hilarious memes and jokes about it though.
There was an article about how they visited an orphanage after the game. Klopp made the whole team go and spend time with the children. "It's just so sad to see how sad and helpless they are" - said jake (aged 6).
And that ladies and gentlemen is why liverpool wont win the league. Chelsea lost games to big teams which can happen even when you win the league. But losing to teams lower down the table cost you titles
