Yeah, that’s fair. And I suppose Klopp was also speaking from a position of strength. Still think they need to change the accepted narrative that ‘Utd get all the decisions’.

You’re probably right but managers can shape a narrative too - we’ve didn’t get a sniff at OT after Klopp had his little rant about us getting all of the decisions.

I agree but we’ve seen with other managers/teams that you can put them under more pressure. Madness that none out our lot were over to him after the AWB challenge.

I know we disagree on the manager but think that’s a pretty fair assessment. The worry in terms of time and resources will be attracting players who can genuinely move us forward if we miss out on Europe two years on the bounce. Big call to be made in the next month or so if we’re still mid table.

Spot on. He’s shown nothing at all in 12 months to suggest he’s likely to succeed long-term at Utd. Parking the bus at 1-0 tonight pretty much sums him up.

Exactly why I can’t get my head around the Dorgu signing or the negative approach on Monday. As the personnel improves he’ll need to be far less risk averse if he’s going to have any chance of succeeding at Utd.

I just think it tends to be inherently negative as a set-up and considering how much the robbing bastards charge me for a season ticket I’d quite like to be entertained once in a while!

Totally agree on a lack of appetite for change and there’s hopefully going to be a significant up turn once we sort the midfield out. However, I still think it’s fair to be concerned about where we’re going under him given the performance. Never been a fan of a back 3/5 which may cloud my thoughts.

Cracking results but I think it also fair to find it concerning that we didn’t create a single decent opportunity from open play. Especially on the back of that shitshow on Monday. You’re clearly convinced and I’m not, each to their own. Wish i was because I can’t be arsed with another change.

Not certain by any stretch but I’ve also seen next to nothing over the past 12 months to be certain that it’s going to work out (hope I’m wrong obviously). As for today, it’s a brilliant result won by two moments of brilliance against a side that were blowing out of their arses second half.

It absolutely was dross in that first half! Great reaction second half but I also think it OK to question how sustainable any of this is. I REALLY hope I’m wrong and sorting that midfield will make a huge difference but I’m not convinced by him or the system.
