Feeling deflated at the moment, that was a piss poor performance.
The FA Cup is important to me and even though we are out it would at least be acceptable if we went out fighting, we didn't. We can blame Klopp for making too many changes but the buck has to stop with the players as well. It is common knowledge that we play the same systems throughout the Club, from Academy through to first team. There is a slight excuse for players not having played much first team football together but there is no excuse for not trying. Origi and Sturridge did not give an absolute F**k, they were shameful, embarassing.
As much as Shearer grips my sh*t he was bang on when he said that this game was an opportunity for all the fringe players to put their hands up and prove they are worthy of wearing the shirt, not many did. Origi has no place here, neither does Moreno. As much as i like Sturridge it is time to remove all sentiment, it is time for him to go also. We are now a title contending side, these are not title contending players. I'll include Mignolet in that as well. I can't have a go at the youngsters, they should be being nursed by the senior players, it didn't happen.
Make no mistake, Wolves are a tough nut to crack at home but we didn't even turn up, that is what hurts to watch. Klopp gave a lot of players a chance, some of them didn't even try.
