my question dear sir is " how long is a country mile"?
Its one reason I hate the current offside āplay onā rule. Its creates this fake shadow game that has happened where a striker has a free shot on goal by virtue of being offside. Thereās no way it doesnāt create a false perception of the match in both the players and the audienceās mind.
Case in point was Burnley a few years ago getting praised for exposing our defence by scoring three goals - but all three where clearly offside but allowed to play on under this nonsence rule.

Klopp is one of those passionate characters that I love to see in sport but the fact is that if he was manager of any other side he would get lambasted and derided on hereā¦

Cue commentator: "Van Dijk has had a couple of let offs now and really needs to get that defensive line (that is catching them EVERY SINGLE TIME) sorted.

I would like to think that isnt the case. He does do stuff that deserves criticism and not infrequently goes too far (see today goading the 4th official, which Im still laughing at), but he always holds up his hands.

Agreed, there is a time when it should stay down but it they then flag as soon as the play is over itās obviously not close.
I think in the build up to the first goal it was offside and then they carried on for another minute going back around before scoring.
Too late to make any decision but something that wouldnāt have happened if it had been waved.
Soā¦it was YOU!
Next time stay the fuck put!

I think Konate is a good player. Wins lots of headers. Big. Strong. Good in the tackle. Fast.
Sort the midfield in front of him and we are a lot less jittery.
Right now we are transitioning and trying a new system, and the midfield is not what it needs to be either.
Konate is a long way down the list of problems we have.

he did say, thats all they do even when they are downā¦
Should have been in here jacking off, but no, peak 22/23 Liverpool.
Robertson and Van Dijk need a long rest to sort themselves out, horrific defending and their complacency is the catalyst every game for us turning into a bag of jelly spanners.

I donāt know, but as I said I would like to think so. You look at the successful managers of rival teams who opposing fans dislike and they simply donāt have the redeeming qualities to balance it all out that Klopp has. And certainly not both in terms of the personality and football. Wengerās sides played admirable football but he has never met a joke he understands. Jose was genuinely funny at times but played stab your eyes football.
Klopp has played football that makes neutrals want to watch and even when heās fucked up finds a way to make the situation genuinely funny or heart warming in his acceptance of his limitations. Like a big German Ted Lasso.

He canāt blame Spurs for those tactics, they shipped 6 goals against Newcastle. He needs to look at why we stopped playing after going 3-0 up and became complacent. Thatās why we conceded three goals.
