Nothing has changed. The starting XI is bang average. I'm starting to wonder if maybe we should indeed sell Coutinho. He's papering over a lot of cracks. At least then Klopp and FSG will be faced with how rubbish most of our players are.
Mignolet. Why is he still the starting keeper at Liverpool Football Club? We know he's sh*te, he was sh*te for three straight seasons, that's why we went out and bought Karius. Then it turns out Karius was sh*te, too. But the entire reason we BOUGHT Karius was *because* Mignolet was sh*te. So why have we gone back to the original sh*te? Neither Mignolet nor Karius is good enough. Is Danny Ward really that awful, that he can't get a game ahead of those two clowns? Absolute shambles today from Mignolet, forget the goals, what about when he kicked it (again!) practically into the dugout from a free kick, with no one around him for thirty yards. Or when we had that counter attack going and he just.... rolled it up the middle of the pitch right back to Watford. Or that flop when Lovren ducked out of the way and Mignolet could barely hang on to the ball.
Then there's the midfield. What, pray tell, is it that Henderson does? I mean it, what does he *do*? and what does Wijnaldum do? at least Wijnaldum has the slight excuse of only having one season under his belt for us. What is Henderson's excuse? And where was he getting into the lads' faces in the first half, when they looked like they had just woken up from a nap? No where to be found of course. Some captain.
The scariest part about today is how chaotic we looked. Watford were so organized, they played together, and yet they weren't parking the bus. Without the ball they held their lines, when they got it they attacked. We play so disjointed, like a bunch of chickens running around with their heads cut off, not communicating, totally disorganized. What the hell do we actually do in training? how is it possible that Watford, *Watford*, can be better drilled than we are?
Everything about us on the pitch right now just screams mediocrity.
