If they lose this, Klopp's future could well be in doubt, particularly with a Chinese conglomerate in the background wanting to take over the club.
Why would they sack Klopp? You're as daft as a brush.
Anyhow, a slightly dubious penalty with next to no contact, but Liverpool were definitely the better team and should have picked up the points, just couldn't finish. Spurs still suffering from the Euro hangover by the looks of it.
Liverpool players are struggling to understand Klopp's system and team & positional selections in my opinion.
Why on earth would you play a one-footed right side midfielder as a left back, for example?
And why would you not play Sturridge in his natural position when he is the best available to him?
The guy with the 'Ibrahimovic Bob', Florino or something, was a waste of space in all three matches so far, can't beat an opponent, can't pass, and can't score and is too slow.
He may have been one of their leading scorers last season but I've seen nothing to date in him that would lead me to pick him over Sturridge or even Orrigi.
As for Spurs, they just seem to be in a similar position, with players struggling to work out what to do, particularly in midfield where they were so strong last season.
We played well in parts against Arsenal and deservedly won, we played well in parts v Spurs and could easily have won. We played poorly v Burnley.
I have faith in Klopp, I can get your message to him if you want, I am sure he won't value it, and anyone who does is bonkers.
Out of interest, what success have you had managing professional footballers?

Wasn't a great game to watch, 2 teams more intent on chasing each other around rather than playing football.
Penalty was nailed on, defender was stupid to initiate contact in the box.

Sort of sums up modern "non contact" football. The merest brush and the bloke falls over his own feet.

You seem to be the one not understanding klopp' tactics. Firmino is a much harder working player than sturridge so when we play good teams, you'll find firmino starting because he presses more.
When we play a weaker team, sturridge or origi would start because the press isn't exactly needed due to Liverpool having majority of possession.

They are about to- Celtic in the Champions League!
Looking like Liverpool (your lot) could be Man. City's biggest challenger for the title and from a neutral/selfish point of view I would like it to go down to the wire. Early days and some injuries, suspensions to come for most clubs.
P.S. Just wondering Bomber, do you bother 'supporting' any Football Club in Poland? Couldn't fail to notice the heavy home defeat suffered by Legia Warsaw v Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League. My club has had their share of Poles in the past and they were all pretty useful.

Parents had some Legia players over for dinner when they toured in 1975 in Adelaide and have some signed autographs from then.
That said, I still have a leaning towards Lech Poznan but not with any "vigour".

Turned your back on them, hey?
Only if there's a nice sort walking past, top row.

Top of what exactly, the draw for the Europa cup round of 32? Was starting to worry that Pochettino might finally be bringing some long absent respectability to the haringey spuds but 50 million quid for Sissoko and Janssen suggests normal service will be resumed.

Just you wait, Sissoko is sure to produce a performance soon. When is France's next match?
I don't actually mind Janssen, I think he might turn out OK given a bit of time, just wish he'd hit the target sometimes!

At least Janssen tries his heart out but Kane did look sharp while he was on against us. With Son & that twat Lamela showing big improvement this year and if Kane starts putting them away again, top in Jan is not out of the question I reckon
With Liverpool imploding and Man United and Spurs both lucky to grab a point, have to hope that Burnley and Hull can produce a miracle.
Not holding my breath though

I'm quietly optimistic.
If they reduced the size of EPL to say, 16 teams, Liverpool could win it easy. Top teams, no problems, bottom ones, there's the problem!

Hull actually made an effort and Jeez, the Gooners were lucky to get away with an offside on their penalty.
