      What a sh*t team selection, Klopp obviously agrees with some of the "fans" on here who don't care about winning this.

      IT was obvious after 10 mins that Ox is not up to speed and that the midfield was sh*te so why not shift it around a bit? Plus why no Bobby?

      F**k me. Started well, wasted a few chances and then got absolutely dominated.

      Need to change it up, and agree with the comments re Gomez at RB. Hate him playing there, makes the team feel so unbalanced.

      Midfield totally non existent and we look unsure at the back struggling with the run in behind, Matip stinking the place out.

      To be fair, mate, there's a lot of quality  defenders in world football who could look sh*te with a midfield playing as bad as that in front of them.

      Taa needs to come on. So hendo can be in midfield. We are making it easy for Chelsea.

      Tbf to ox, we can't seem to hold the ball pass it to the front men. Midfield isn't doing its job.

      Him staring at the midfield without supporting them is doing a greater damage

      This performance has been pathetic. What was Klopp thinking with this line up?!

      My thoughts too.

      Klopp has been boasting about how good this squad is that he doesn't need to buy, and then we come to the Super Cup, and he puts out a weakened starting 11. What?! Where are the top players?

      Why is Chamberlain playing ahead of Firmino? Gomez ahead of Arnold?

      We've been playing rubbish for the past few weeks (despite the excuses and exaggeration by some who pretend we've been great) and now this in the Super Cup. The team are still hung over from the Champions League celebrations. We won't be the Champions of Europe if we carry on like this.

      The way i see it, gomez is sitting and defending. Hendo is providing width on the right which usually is done by Taa.
      Now since hendo is missing in the middle, it makes it easier for Chelsea.

      So IMO the problems start at rb position.

      Struggling to think of a performance that has pissed me off this much for the last how ever long

      We had a few that done me in last season  when we went clear of City. All them draws against sh*te like West Ham, Leicester, Everton and United. Of few of them involved Joe Gomez at full back.

      I'm watching this in Spain it's spoiling my holiday, pedestrian midfield,are Mane and Ox deffo playing because I haven't seen them. Started reasonably but  as it went on that goal was coming, get Bobby on..

      That’s the best they have up our game in the second half and we can turn this around but I do agree we need some subs on especially Bobby upfront mane back wide and ox in the middle instead of Milner or hendo.

      What is Klopp actually thinking by playing Ox in a front 3 instead of Shaqiri? If Klopp doesn't want to play Shaqiri as backup for a wide player then why did he not sign someone?!

      Milner has been horrific.

      In pre-season when I was saying about how bad we were looking the more it went on and how it doesn't bode well going into the season people were jumping in and saying it's irrelevant and means nothing. Well, right now, the first half vs City and large parts vs Norwich has been exactly like our pre-season performances. Passing is sloppy as hell, midfield getting run all over the place and the defence letting their man go time and again.

      Need to wake up because they aren't even playing that well themselves, we are just making it easy for them.

      Think Matip has actually been decent though. Could have done better on the goal but not a lot else is getting past him.

      Not going to disagree there but it looks a little like the last half hour of Norwich in the back. Too many fundamental errors with positioning and marking for me too easy to shift it all on the midfield.

      We're desperately missing TAA (in place of Gomez), Gini (in place of Milner), and Bobby (in place of Ox).  It's crazy how bad we look with only 3 changes to our "best 11" -- probably why so many people were shouting for us to add quality depth to the side over the summer....

      We can do this. Kante is looking immense. Just need to shut him down.
      Try to fix our midfield and take control of the game.
