He trained, he’s been in contact for months, he scored and put Liverpool through to the next round. You don’t think Klopp motivated or guided him? He scored a game winning goal last night but it remains to be seen if Klopp gets the best out of him defensively. After just one game it's impossible to know but he's there to do a defensive job and scoring important goals will no doubt just be a bonus. Kind of like the great Robert Huth who was sold by Hughes, but who knows why? Klopp is, none the less, a great attacking coach but his defences have proven to be somewhat leaky! I wish our defence was as leaky as his , I think he sold Huth due to his injury situation you know the one where he spent 6 months on loan never missed a game at Leicester, then went on to be an integral part of the team that became PL Champions with his errmmmmm injury problems played in the Champions League, thank God we replaced him with Wolfy

Bojan, the next Messi, failing at Stoke and on loan. Imbula, Porto’s 20 million Euro signing, failed at Stoke and on loan. Berahino, plenty of opportunity to shine, failing at Stoke City. Shawcross, raw untapped talent turning into rawer, untapped talent. The starting eleven, playing each game like a testimonial. Are these failings in part due to a lack of motivation? Perhaps it’s not too late to set new challenges for the remaining games. Has complacency spoiled them or can the current management team motivate them? I think we’ll just about do it. Its an injury issue too If bruno had have been fit all season it would have been different

Hughes needs to bring back all players (if possible) pick his best 11 in the most suitable positions/formation and tell them they get the rest of the season. If there not happy at the end of the season they can leave, but they have to earn that right between now and the 38th game.

Perhaps it’s not too late to set new challenges for the remaining games. Has complacency spoiled them or can the current management team motivate them? I think we’ll just about do it. Bojan was our second top scorer in the last season where he started more than two games in a row. Imbula has his faults but has massive talent. Barely played last year despite good showings and needing midfield drive. Berahino has looked good this season despite only starting 3 games, none of which consecutive. Shawcross is captain of the club and is still the best defender we have having seen Zouma's recent form. The starting eleven are being told to sit deep and lump it to a stationary beanpole, and are given what seems like no defensive training whatsoever. The management aren't utilising them correctly, there are issues in the squad (defensive midfield mostly), but if we played to our strengths, tried to attack and keep the ball rather than parking the bus and hoofing it to Crouch, we'd be far better off. Well Lil, I've just watched that shocking press conference that Mark gave and some of the absolute rubbish he spouted included the comment that 'we continue to work correctly, we always work correctly' blah blah blah and that gives him confidence to know that the results will come. Utter bollocks.

Is it motivation though or the type of player we go for?

This is what is needed before every game but doubt it happens...... Yes, that’s the one!! But will Big Pete allow Sparky to buy the background music from I-tunes or will he buy the one that came 5th in the Eurovision Song Contest? Probably take out a 1 hour loan, payable only if the team fluke a win.

Klopp is not exactly renowned for his work on defensive play Virgil Van Dyke? Throwing £75m at a player doesn't make you a Master of defensive strategy. Liverpool have been a defensive nightmare during all of Klopp's reign- and for the £ 360m that he has spent what have they won? Klopp is good entertainment but he is someone who promises but has yet to deliver.
