If you listen carefully, right before Luke Shaw takes the corner kicks, you can hear Mourinho shouting "you're gonna f*ck this up, fattie".

I'm the 1st one to criticise Mingolet so its only right when he's had a blinder I acknowledge his performance. I agree all keepers make howlers but none as many as Mingolet. I am not suggesting he's the answer to our problems neither.

We're down to our bare bones and Matip apart I'd happily replace the rest of our defence. Klopp tried something different yesterday, something you and many others have said he doesn't have a plan B, And I don't think it worked because he hasn't got the players to play that formation.
If we don't get in CL we will struggle again to attract the top players , that's what happened last year.
I watched Chealsea mid week defend a lead and they never looked it trouble .
Liverpool look like they will concede every time the opposition get in our half.
I would like to see what happens on the training pitch as the defending is schoolboy errors all the time.
The marking from dead ball situations is shocking.
yesterday Stoke had four players in the six yard box to NO Liverpool players but he saved a bad finish from Adam .
While we have a few injuries and are not as free flowing up front and in midfield we need to tighten up at the back.

Until the owners back the manager properly then we'll continue to struggle.

I agree though theyre not relying on a midfielder playing left back and they've got very good defenders

It seems to be individual errors as opposed to how we set up, players losing men and switching off isn't the managers fault.

In fairness the back line had done their job,moved out and they were only onside because winjaldum headed the ball back, it's unfair to blame the defence for that.

Relying on Milner at LB doesn't help, Klavan isn't Upto it and Lovren for such a big fella he doesn't command/organise enough.

Where was he last week?

Ian Wright was talking about the exact same thing this evening - Lukaku at the moment is the flat track bully , at times looks unplayable but other times goes missing. The discussed the sort of club that will look to buy him , the compared his possible transfer to Suarez leaving , he went to Barcelona and improved them - what club will Lukaku go to and improve them if he is making the step up from Everton ? Or will he be looking to go to a club that he knows will look to improve him - or just go to who offers him the most money ?.

Which bracket do clubs like PSG , Chelsea and UTD fit into ?

Love the "flat track bully" comment that gets thrown around.

The same was regularly said about Cristiano Ronaldo, you may have heard about him? He's not done too badly for himself.

I could be wrong but did I see a stat that Lukaku has reached XX League goals (100?) quicker/younger than Ronaldo (maybe and/or Rooney)? Not playing for one of the top clubs that's pretty impressive IMO......

If by saying you watched Chelsea midweek and they never look troubled V City, then you watched a differant game to the rest of us.
All the goals were scruffy and City who have not took there chances all season again missed sitters v Chelsea.
Liverpool like City are ok and am sure that Klopp who I really do like, will be thinking along the same lines as Guardiola. They both know who is going and staying. And both know who they need to make both there teams stronger.
