      Mate, I don’t think people realise just how good we can be! Absolutely lethal front 3, with Dom and Mac backing them up - then Trent looking for those pinged balls. I would absolutely hate to play against Liverpool and I’m sure Newcastle are thinking the same thing.

      Yep far too much focus on any negatives right now

      Literally 9 out of the 11 first team players you wouldn’t swap for anyone in world football yet people still think we’re sh*t. Mad.

      I wager that for the folks you are referring to, they worry more about how bad we can be than have confidence in how good we can be. I don't think anyone doubts our abilities going forward, it's our abilities going backwards that has people on the edge of their seats.

      It's not an unreasonable thought process.

      You would think we have a team that’s going to battle relegation with the way they are reacting

      There appears to be zero confidence or belief in the manager and his team - he has proved time and time again that he can create a special team - time some just give it a rest with focusing on any little negative they can find

      Or people are free to think and react however they want since it's really not up to you what people post.

      Zero confidence or belief in the manager.....for some folks that's all they have is confidence in is Klopp. You do like to live in the land of hyperbole don't you :D

      With that many world class players the Title should be a stroll this year 😁

      Nobody is saying we're s*it mate.

      I don't believe our first 11 matches up to some teams above us. I also don't believe our squad depth matches our competitors.

      But sh*t? We're far from it .... but it's vital we can stay relatively injury free.

      We have a manager who has the ability to put a competitive side out irrespective of our market playing owners who if as familiar with 'soccer' as they are with the stock market would prove an asset to LFC.

      Exactly mate. Full faith in Jürgen. Feels like he's the only one holding this together most of the time.

      Defensively and squad depth wise you think we're good enough to win the league mate?

      Squad depth no, but our strongest 11 and no injuries - yes! Big ask but not impossible

      If Konate doesn't make it Joe must come in.Needs an early solid game. Still for me, a quality defender. When he comes in he often has to cover one side on his tod as Trent goes up on his sorties and that obviously brings extra pressure.

      Going with Nunez. Gakpo gets lost a bit in midfield so he could go with Endo, Macca and Dom.

      1-2

      Gomez/Matip can do a job but away to Newcastle given how well they play not the ideal situation. Disappointing for Konate who many (including myself) pin the hopes he main fixture in the lineup.

      I would probably go with Gomez for Konate, plug Endo in the middle and keep trio of Diaz/Jota/Salah up top. Feel bad for Gapko but there will be lots of time for him to play up to this season.

      Play each game like a cup final, with our strongest squad possible, find some consistency. We should not be far off as title contenders.

      So are you saying if we don’t get proper reinforcements it’s Jürgen’s fault?

      ;D there is a valuation that the bean counters place on players so even if Jürgen was desperate for player X they will not spend above that.

      Jürgen has a role in as much as giving the final nod of approval he doesn’t negotiate prices. 👍
