Typical Klopp. He had that "syndrome" with Dortmund too.
And Atletico Madrid would have won La Liga last season. They only got 10 of 30 points vs bottom 5 teams.

Atletico look very average this season though, i have watched a couple of their la liga games and i think they look bang average over there.
Liverpool are fun though, i mean they give any of top teams a good game, yet they have 90% possession vs Hull Wolves Plymouth Swansea Sunderland and can't buy a win xd

Now that both Arsenal and Liverpool dropped points, if United draws again tonight I'll be furious -_-

yeah we need a win bad. a win today and a few days ago would put us up on 4th (or 5th depending on city win). with the way arsenal is going we'd be in 3rd easily by the end of the month if we could just get a goal from our 100 chances

Neymar should watch himself

Can you blame him? Aguero hasn't been in best form lately and there's always the injury problem. Jesus has delivered so far(of course, very, very small sample to draw any conclusion from). Moving Jesus to the wings wouldn't be a really smart decision IMO, the times he played there for Palmeiras didn't yield any good results.
edit: there he goes again. Jesus is by no means a top athlete but he's 10 times smarter than the rest of the players on the field. Dude's positioning is perfect.

Yeah i guess, im just more of a person who would play people on what they have done in this league vs someone who is a very unknown quantity. Aguero averages like 20 goals a season in the league for last 5 years doesn't he or something very impressive.
This yanited game pretty dull. Mata with the aggressive tackle which could been a red, not many chances either.

First 40mins were so boring and 2 goals in 2 mins!

Oh I agree that Aguero deserves respect, and I'd very much rate him above Jesus now, but the thing is: Aguero's form has been patchy and Jesus had a very nice beginning. With that in mind, I'd continue to field Jesus until his form drops. Then I'd give Aguero another chance.

Mourinho swiping Chelsea saying how defensive counter attacking football is now considered an art, whereas when he did it everyone hated him.
I do think criticism on his teams are excessive, but they also have merit. When mourinho sets up his team to park the bus, it is purely defensive with no real approach on attacking. Its almost just hoping the opponent screws up or some individual moment of brilliance. Everything feels laboured and only like 3-4 players will attack if opportunity arises.
The way conte has been doing is different. The offensive system is in place. The wing backs often have so much more space to play with, attacking players are receiving balls from more dangerous positions, the penalty box is no longer just patrolled by lone Costa

Can anyone explain what is going on at Liverpool? They were beating teams by 3-5 goals and their only win in 2017 is a 1-0 win over a league 2 team in an FA Cup replay.
This is pretty shocking even for a United fan
