I can’t work out of this is sarcasm or not, clever of Klopp to not win when they’re at the business end of the season and need all the wins they can get ?

Fox In The Box 90 Posted 3 March 2019 Posted 3 March 2019 Why do football fans have to be prone to hyperbole and reducing everything to black and white? The fact Liverpool drew an away merseyside derby and are one point off the top does NOT mean they are bottling. People band around this "bottler" tag... its ridiculous

They've lost one match this season in 29 yet are behind a team who've lost four including three against bottom-half sides. They could lose a great opportunity to win the title.

The amount of games a team loses isnt very relevant its the points total. To win the title in England youd have to beat what is arguably the worlds current best team over 38 games and with man citys current form to keep up with them theyd have to be winning every single game. They arent losing a great opportunity because they arent as good as man city, theyve gone flat out all season and done pretty much all they could, and theyre one point behind.

It is PART of it. As is admonishing. They're racing for the title. It's a local derby. Expectations are high.

It definitely is a great opportunity, I don't know how their position and season can be interpreted any other way. No side has been so far clear at New Year's and not gone on to win the title (in the Premier League era). It's as good an opportunity as they've had in a generation, regardless of Man City's quality.

People band around this "bottler" tag... its ridiculous they’re definitely getting nervous though, from the fans to the manager to the players you can see them all (bar VVD) looking terrified every time they have to do something. whether you wanna call it bottling or not doesn’t really bother me, but they’ve massively tightened up and started to shit themselves when they realised they were about 10 points clear.

Arsenal lost 0 games in a premier league season and scored less points than chelsea who lost 5 a couple of seasons ago. That was the point which you willfully misunderstood.
ThaiFox Posted 4 March 2019 Posted 4 March 2019 Liverpool can't seem to grind out those 1-0 wins which are essential for a title winning team. Man City have had two of those on the trot now. I'd be surprised if City don't win it from here, and that'll then be twice Liverpool have thrown a title away. Not that I have any love for Man Ure and Clelsea, but I'm pleased they both won as it's putting a lot of pressure on Spuds. We know how they like to throw good positions away too, so they could well miss out on champions league next season. If that happens we'll see who stays, and how much of a millstone the debt 'shrewd businessman' Levy has racked up on their new ground hurts them.

Klopp has to really get into them now .... tell them how it is .... or completely the opposite if that’s what he did a month ago they have ‘bottled’ the current phase and cannot be left to carry on from a mental perspective ..... whatever he had decided to do hasn’t worked. So the alternative approach is to drive home a different message ..... if we continue to see them tight and without the intensity and freedom they had before then clearly this group (and the fans with them) will not be able to carry this season through to its ultimate conclusion there is another thought that tactically, they have tightened up (as we did after Dec 15/16) and it simply doesn’t suit their style to do so ...... ‘he who dares wins rodders’ .........maybe klopp isn’t a fan of only fools ........
