Well seems my "white flag" approach worked! 
Not a classic game. Expected Liverpool to dominate the ball and Newcastle to perhaps try and sneak something on the break and certainly expected more from them in attack. With a fit squad though I think we'd have had a tougher time.
I have to say I'm very satisfied with my team's showing but from Liverpool's point of view take it as a bad day at the office
Nice of Newcastle's defence to turn up.

Not a single shot on target from either team
Ooof! that hurts.
You're right to a degree. Based off recent performance we have been poor. But I just hope from Newcastle tonight was a showing of what we can do.. what we're capable of. Newcastle were fragile today and probably expected more from Liverpool going forward. And Liverpool probably expected Newcastle to turn keel over. We didn't.
As i said before, we're fragile but I think the neutrals got another taste how how good Newcastle can be. We're not a top team. We don't have a top team mentality. We have a losing mentality... sleeping giant kind of thing going on that the coaching staff at Newcastle are trying to put right. Newcastle have taken a lot of flack over the last few weeks and rightly so. Performances have been poor. From a Newcastle point of view I just hope it's not another false dawn.

Too many players in the squad that aren't of the quality we need to move forward. Klopp will need backing in the summer and some average players will need moving on.”
