Or maintain status quo. He clearly knows how to find open spaces which often the striker creates. Putting him as striker would nullify what he’s good at. Tongue in cheek, I get it, but yeah.

Of course this idiot Michy is offside. Staggering he’s still a Chelsea player.

We are garbage.

I get the point you are trying to make. There is of course a clear difference in experience between Klopp and Lampard but you can hardly hold that against Lamps, though some here are trying real hard. But another point to be made is that Liverpool's board backed Klopp correctly in the market with bringing in exactly the players he wanted, no alternates. Historically, our board is not known for this, often times operating in parallel to what the manager wants. This is the biggest rebuild under the Roman era, the board have got to get this right or else we will enjoy a decade of being the new Arsenal. It's really not so far fetched.

You did, this match was depressing. Maybe not so much the loss, that can always happen in the most elite competition in the world, but to see how far we are as a club to compete with said elite teams is just damning.

Unfortunately I think you're right and this is pretty damning. We lack so much quality for elite, Champions League football.

Agreed however, with Alonso and Giroud hardly playing, can they keep up the intensity of two matches in a week?

Agreed. 343 suits us. Some fans point to the Arsenal match and how it failed but that was a half of a half against one team.

Tariq also gone.

I know...I know. So does he, better than anyone.

Of course he would say that. I expect nothing less. Proper way to handle the media.

Except ours at the moment. Strange what’s happening right now but we’re better without him in the team.

Sure we can. We're in the knockout stages of it.

We’re not getting a Timo Werner in January. No one is. Nothing wrong with a stop gap to help us see the season out and look at the CF position again in the summer.

Absolutely. I think it’s such a great fit. You could also argue that there’s a lot Tammy could learn from Cavani as they have similar builds. Cavani would also bring in a much needed level of experience in our young squad.
