Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [3rd - 7th February 2017]

Incredible. Compete with the champions elect and then lose to Hull. Absolutely pathetic display. Absolute dross.

The best part is i knew after 30 minutes we would lose...we have zero fight.
 
We're a mess. Until we get some depth to our squad we're never going to be able to put a decent season together. We're relying on the same 11-12 players and if and when a few of them are injured, suspended or out of form we look dreadful.
 
Well Lukaku went ahead and blew up Bournemouth's come back, 4 goals for Lukaku, 5-2 to Everton. He set up the other goal for Everton as well, he's a damned beast. He's done a bit of everything today. First goal was just finesse, second goal he setup he dribbled through a few players then cut it back for McCarthy, last goal was pace and power beating the defence and a cool finish. Guy can basically do a bit of anything.

He's the guy Arsenal need, Giroud can really only score in the box, mostly on his first touch, he would almost never score or setup 3 of the goals Lukaku was involved in today. Giroud is a fantastic finisher but Lukaku is a threat from anywhere in any situation.
 
United won't captilise on today's results as we are also pathetic. I would much rather have Klopp than José.

^Thats another reason I don't like José, selling player's with clear potential because he can't develop them.
 
Sorry, there are no excuses for playing the same players, in the same formation and the style week in week out. There's been little attempt to try something different even though our style has been completely neutralised.

If we had better players and more depth I have no doubt we would still be flying under Klopp but we don't so it's up to Klopp, as our manager, to do something different until such time as we do have the squad his football demands.

Totally agree. Hope there's patience with the manger.
 
We really need to*try anything in games like these. Trying the same thing over and over again has just resulted us in losing most*of the games. We*really need top 4 to make recruitment that much easier in the summer.

Precisely, which is why I have been saying for so many months now that we need to buy. And when we do , we need to stop trying to penny pinch and get the players a few million cheaper, we need to go straight in with serious offers so that we dont miss out on players, hell if we need to we even need to go in higher than normal. We are lacking the players to win things at the moment and until we get those additional players in , we cant consistently win things in order to attract players based on merit rather than cash, so we have to go with the attracting option thats available, even if that means paying over the odds. The ends justifies the means.
 
Oh hello another team defends and hits us on the counter. Klopp ain't got a clue apart from attack attack attack.

Absolute disgrace the results we've had lately. What is it about 1 win in 10?

Hope the owners give him a bit of a shake up.

No we don't, we got it with a far better, more exciting team and couldn't even get Sanchez. We need a **** load of money or a manager who can set us up properly to be tighter and win games by close margins. Doesn't have to be negative football, but reckless football is just costing the club.

This is simply not true. We've played different players, different systems but we just haven't been able to play well when doing so.

Teams were playing the exact same way against us at the start of the season and we were tearing them apart. Our problem is we rely on 1 set of players and when 1 or 2 are injured or out of form we're ****ed.

Yep, we don't have Suarez to dig us out of a hole anymore either which is a shame because of all the strikers in the world he's the one that would best suit a Klopp team :(
