There was a point with Skrtel were he looked like he could develop in to a top class near post aggressive type defender but then he just turned into a foul machine and in turn an absolute liability because he became too aggresive in his defending. By that I dont mean fouling I mean coming out of shape to clear the ball or whatever.

To be fair to him, it's to successive coaching staffs detriments that they've not picked up on his basic, fundamental flaws that most everyone else can see. You aren't going to correct them at his current age, but when they happen over and over it begs the question why they've not been rectified a LONG time back? But then before Klopp and his guys arrived, you were often left wondering if we did ANY defensive work the training ground.
 
Yeah I wish him all the best but he's been a bit of a liability over the years*. He loved to come out of position and dive in for a slide tackle. If he makes it fair enough it looks good, but when he didn't we were so out of shape at the back.

I love that we have the option to finish early to watch the England game.

Yet nobody's allowed out early when L'pool or Everton play ..... F that. Cheeky twats.
 
Tranmere tickets have arrived. Row C !!

You'd love a Euro away. Basically stand where you want. Always amusing when someone actually try's to sit in the seat on their ticket.

But anyway, get in NI in the rain in Lyon!

No Zielinski again then for the second straight game. From qualifying regular to nothing.

Frustrating. Really want to see our new Pole in a game.

And Gotze **** poor again. But saying that, Muller is bonafide World Class and he's been totally anonymous for two straight games. Germany just not firing ..... Yet.

Yeah, seems we're set on playing with two midfield destroyers for the time being. Not that I'm complaining as it's obviously working. He might not play at all the way things are going, unless we need to chase the score.
 
Because he's 49 today and because this is why we love the crazy German so much:

Jürgen Klopp's birthday: Top 10 quotes at Liverpool - The Anfield Wrap

I like #2 best. Anyone not from Liverpool would be like 'huh?' Anyone from Liverpool is like 'Is rite Jurgie lad. Fella's a proper Scouser now like!'



Don't know if you bother with the member packs that get sent out but there was quite a bit about the new stand when I flicked through before. Will look at it properly later on.

Also re-activating my brothers member card. He's on the old card system so I'll need to ring up and get a new one sent out. The daft **** doesn't know his password or anything so I'm going to be on the phone to customer service all night.
 
Firmino not picked as one of the over age players in the Brazilain Olympic squad.

Another major bonus after Phil's Copa ended early.

Both Brazilians for the start of pre-season after a break. Great news.

Too good to be true though as Mignolet will be starting in goal.
 
But for that to happen, he'd need to be conceding goals. Unless he's consigned to the bench, which is hardly encouraging either :P

He can be demoted to driving the darn bus if it means the Belgium buffoon's not in our nets come opening day at Arsenal!
