I disagree to play any other formation which will negate the 4-3-3.

If this evening a draw or a lose... do u think Klopp needs more time again? So when is the right time? Next season?

No doubt Klopp is charismatic but to some fans, he is doing worse than BR on stats.

So tell me, was Liverpool playing like fuck or should we give more time to Klopp?

Prove me wrong... give me an excuse...

I am not against u but excuse like give Klopp needs more time is just stupidity... how much time, 1, 2,3 seasons???

Klopp is clueless... His success in Germany was making him stupid in England.

[LeeHsienLoong]

Look at how Man City trash Watford away from home while we drew at home when we played Watford.
This will tell you where the team is heading.
Do not bother even talking about today's match.
As fans we always support the team but at times like this if you still talk about support you must be fucking stupid.

Wow.. Pool gained a precious point @ home! Luckily this week concede only 1 goal compared to last weekend.

[francined69]

no way Pool can win the title with such display against lower opponents. would be lucky if Pool can even be in top 3.

Klopp has to deliver this season. no more excuses!!!

[pomrakthai]

Pom does not know whether "possession rate %" can win the BPL or not, this was exactly what Pool are capable of doing, overwhelming opponents with extraordinary possession but not goals. WTF

Same scenarios haunting Klopp and team:

(1) Could not penetrate "parked bus" formatons
(2) Could not finish off with goals (they like kicking at goal posts)
(3) Could not defend corner kicks
(4) Positioning of defenders are totally useless

WTH WTF

[escobar43535]

Looks like another long and disappointing season in store for us!

Toothless upfront, hopeless in defence. We will struggle for top 4 unless we learn to defend better.

Klopp takes far too long to change things. His arrogance in his plan A is whats hindering us at the moment. He has to use his substitutes earlier.

Question: how many times has Oxlade-Chamberlain touched the ball since joining Liverpool? Talk about a pointless signing. Can we sell him back in Jan and buy a CB? Any CB!!

Salah shines but Reds fail to finish – 5 talking points from Liverpool 1-1 Burnley

James Nalton
16 September 2017

A defensive error gifted Burnley a goal and a point at Anfield, as an otherwise dominant Liverpool performance couldn’t secure a win.

Liverpool 1-1 Burnley

Premier League, Anfield
September 16, 2017

Goals: Salah 30′; Arfield 27′

Breaking Down Burnley – A Bit of a Long Shot

Liverpool had a total of seventeen shots taken from outside the area as they struggled to work their way through Sean Dyche’s side’s two defensive banks of four.

The buildup play was good around the edges of the area, but when it came to playing that incisive ball into the danger area the side lacked a cutting edge.



Coutinho was back to his old ways, performing excellently in midfield but regularly shooting into the stands.

Emre Can had a couple of efforts towards the end of the game but his shots were either blocked or saved by Pope in the Burnley goal.

Jurgen Klopp‘s men enjoyed 71% of the possession and had a total of 35 shots but couldn’t turn it into win.

After a summer when the aim was to use the transfer market to solve this issue, maybe Salah alone wasn’t enough.


Salah the Striker



When playing from the Liverpool’s new signing likes to cut inside off the right wing onto his left to shoot, even from the tightest of angles, after beating a man.

He did that on a couple of occasions in this game, and also sent a header over at the far post, but his goal came from a run made into a central position, and a shot from the left.

When shooting from the right the Egyptian seems able to generate more power and direction on his shots, where as from the right he looks to bend them with placement rather than power. This has seen a lot of his shots appear as if they’re passed to the keeper, as was the case with the big chance he had versus Man City.

He was troubling Burnley in central areas as Liverpool chased the winner, but again his shots from the left were tame.



Recurring Nightmare in Central Defence

Ragnar Klavan came into the side in place of Dejan Lovren to partner Joel Matip and, on the whole, the pair didn’t play too badly.

But there were rarely tested by Burnley, and when they were they conspired to make a mess of things as seems to be the norm for a Liverpool defence.

Robbie Brady beat Alexander-Arnold in the air, and when the ball came in to Chris Wood, Matip failed to win the header and Klavan kicked at thin air. This left Scott Arfield with a one-on-one against Simon Mignolet, which he gratefully dispatched.

Liverpool goalkeepers must be getting fed up of being put in this situation by their defenders, as the same has now happened to both Mignolet and Loris Karius within a week.



Mixed Deliveries

Within the first minute a dangerous ball was coming in from Andrew Robertson on the left, which bypassed its intended target Salah, but found Daniel Sturridge in a good position to get an early shot away.

A few more balls came in from the Scottish left back, before Trent Alexander-Arnold got in on the act on the other side with an excellent cross to the near post. If Sturridge or an attacking midfielder had gambled with a near post run, then they would have had a tap in.

A similar ball came in from Milner just before half time but evaded both the Burnley defenders and, unfortunately, Sturridge too.

These may go down as incomplete crosses, but they were still chances from which at least one goal should have been scored.

In the second half the crossing was less measured and more desperate, but a Milner cross from the left found Trent on the far side, but his impressive left-footed volley was help by Nick Pope.



Changes and Rotation

Klopp’s rotation was in full effect, with seven changes to the side which started against Sevilla in midweek.

The changes didn’t weaken the side, and if anything the introduction of Coutinho in midfield, allowing Can to drop back, made the side stronger – and more creative in the middle.

Liverpool have three away games in the next 10 days, which means further team changes will be needed from game to game.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be looking to start a game sooner rather than later, as will Dominic Solanke, but as was the case here, the mere fact the players are fresh isn’t always enough.

Sadio Mane will miss both games against Leicester in the League Cup on Tuesday and in the league the following weekend, and would have been available for the next Champions League game against Spartak Moscow anyway.

It’s a balancing act for Klopp who, above all, needs to try to find some good form among all the changes to his starting eleven.

No worries and I am not bothered. Everyone have freedom of speech here.

Klopp will be under pressure if Liverpool dun start to win.

[Baigonggong]

Ah Gong really don't know what to say . Liverpool cannot score cannot defend . Same old problem. That headless chicken still headless chicken . No impact at all . Another 2 points dropped .

Now must change the mindset. It was a point gained against Burnley yesterday n the defence did well conceding only 1 goal ..
Hopefully next EPL match would gained another point !
Happy as long as they don't lose!
