Hmm, really? First defeat of the season to a team ranked outside the top six.
On top of 5 draws with teams ranked outside the top six already.

Do well against the big teams, drop silly points to the so-called lesser teams (and fail to win trophies) sums up Klopp's time at Liverpool pretty well so far, I'd say.

superb game management by our boys from start to finish - Carlos nailed the tactics. Tonight was exactly what I mean about Liverpool being flat track bullies - take em off the flat and they ain't all that.

If we were flat track bullies we'd have won tonight. Do you even know what the term means? Come on Aber, a bit more effort please.

Macclesfield Town/Manchester City. It's complicated.
Oh, Klopp managing to drag a match winning performance out of his side in a big game with all the fans behind him, but can’t against a lower profile side when the team actually needs motivation?

I’m shocked.

But still been better season on season with him. Slowly but surely there is improvement. These results happen to everyone now and again. Trying too hard with the trophy jibe though. ;)

It had to come sometime, just wasn't expecting it tonight. Ach well, there's always another game around the corner.

So not much harm done then all in all eh Schtevie.

I'd say that a bit of harm has been done to your relentless charge towards the second place finish that you reckon is on the cards.

Not much has changed in terms of your top four aspirations, no.

Very kind of Liverpool to take a stupid hit to their comfortable top 4 position just to keep the relegation fight as tight as possible
:hb::lol:

The 'beat the big teams, lose or draw to the little teams' that the usual suspects are banging on about after last night's result doesn't really apply this season. Out of our 24 league games this season, approximately 15 of them have been against teams you would expect to finish around middtable or below. And before last night we had lost none and had drawn 4. It really is an outdated stereotype.

Shit like last night simply happens occasionally. Our attackers had an off night, and when you combine that with the setup Swansea used (at home but out and out defence at all times with a goal from a set piece) sometimes you just need to accept it's not going to be your game.

Err no - just because you were playing the bottom team does not automatically mean the bottom team must succumb to your flat track bullying exploits. Did you not hear "The Carlos" speak after the game? He said think of it as F1 - a F1 car is very fast, in F1 - put a F1 car in London traffic and it'd be no good. That is what we did to you - we took the flat track away - we've laid the blueprint in how to combat Liverpool's bullying ways - if other teams have any sense they will replicate.

Gotta be impressed with "The Carlos" so far - I just hope the board help him out so he isn't trying to create mircacles with the squad he has every matchday. Last night was a huge game - one we needed to win regardless of who the opposition were - we're back in the mixer now - we just need some fresh blood to boost momentum.

Carlos smashes all Flopps cringe-worthy post match statements in one go.

Beautiful to watch.

Liverpool miss a decent striker to bail them out now and then. The kamikaze tactics always run out after half a season.

i expect them to finish 6th and i'm a neutral so enjoy football as a whole.

Cheers Lowry mate, I'm a United fan and clearly have a little bias when it comes to analysing Liverpool so it's great to hear a neutral's opinion.

Fantastic opinions, Lowry mate.

You say it will happen, then I'm sure it will happen, just like all your other predictions. Got to get one right sometime eh. ;)

I have just uncovered conclusive proof that Lowry is not Johnny.

That's blown that theory clean out of the water.

If it involves JT not being from or living in Liverpool that was always the case.
