Fuckin disgusting performance
Didn't expect that. Especially not the second half. Not a shot on target against a team with 10 men for most of the game. Can't remember a worse game in all honesty.

Matip, our centre back, was the most dangerous player on our side and the ONE player wanting to try and create something and run at them.

Shocking!

Did you watch it? Would've been terrible for the neutral imo. Arsenal did well. Hats off to them. Backs to the wall and they dug in but we did absolutely nothing. Holy shit. Terrible.
no, I had a long day yesterday and so I slept in... but the majority of games that have send offs aren't particularly entertaining... still hard to believe you boys had almost 80% of possession, 17 shots but only one on target

zero shots on target up against 10 players is embarrassing
I did say it at halftime, we've got absolutely nothing against 10 men while Klopps ingame management is absolutely non existent. I still can't believe we didn't make a change at halftime, basically let you have the game lol

Absolutely usless without him

Nothing to do with that, we're just useless against 10 men when they choose to sit deep and that's with and without Salah.

263 minutes against 10 men for 3 goals scored with only 1 of them being from open play.

Spot on really. We've never been good against 10 men when they're all behind the ball.

Absolutely no creativity from the midfield. No one going at the defence until Cujo came on.

We can say we missed Thiago and Keita in midfield, but that would be an excuse. We were just shit.

Klopp got it wrong. Should've made a sub after he got sent and gone more attacking straight away as it made no sense to have both Milner and Hendo on the field at the same time.

Worrying how toothless they looked without him. They've gradually declined since the title winning season.

Klopp is obviously one of the best in the world but he always seems to fail when plan A doesn't work. Wonder where they go after this season, Mane and Firmino look a shell of themsleves, Salah and his contract saga, Henderson and Milner look past it, Van Dijk hasn't looked the same since his injury and Klopp has probably another season, maybe two at a stretch left in him. Still they have a solid foundation to rebuild the side with Allison, TAA, Fabinho, Jota and Elliot.

Obviously they're still the second best side in the league but they're going to start playing with fire if they dont start upgrading their side.

We have a reasonably good core with a few promising youngsters coming through, the issue for me is Klopp's loyalty and lack of ruthlessness with the roster. We literally can't register a new player right now yet there's still no sign of Klopp pushing anyone out. We could've easily cut our loses on a few guys and reinvested back into the squad but we haven't and here we are.
