Consistency has been a major problem at LFC for seasons. Klopp looks nowhere nearer to solving the underlying issues. The pass pass pass style of play has to be changed when necessary. Having all the possession, as they did in the 2nd half against West Brom, means nothing when you don't create chances because the opposition have parked the bus as it knows exactly how you're going to play.”

How about given the new manager the opportunity to build his own side. Inconsistency was inevitable while klopp was assessing his players and implementing his own methodology on the team.
Klopp has done just fine. If you can beat the big sides your halfway there.




- as what Captain had done was exactly what you say and that is hardly fair.
