Klopp inspired me to do a google search for famous "wind" quotes.

He would do well to heed the words of Homer, not Simpson: "Words empty as the wind are best left unsaid." Or Catherine the Great: "A great wind is blowing and that gives you either imagination or a headache!" Or William Arthur Ward: "The pessimist complains about the wind: the optimist expects it to change; the realist adjusts the sails."

I still read that as Homer Simpson.

For those keeping score at home: Thus far this season Klopp has blamed the wind twice, blamed a dry pitch, blamed snow, blamed the grass and blamed an opposing teams injuries. We've got 2 more months left.

Was at the game. Didn't get that impression either from the fans or the players. If anything I felt we were almost too desperate in the 2nd half.

Genuinely baffled by your observation.
I was also at the game. Not sure whether it was the stadium, the kick-off time or the fact that we'd suffered back to back defeats, but it definitely didn't have the feel that past NLD's I've been to have had.

Rodgers said Vardy was still feeling the effects of a collision with Foster where Vardy looked like he was knocked out cold which is why he was subbed off(aka a concussion) The collision was I think at the 15th minute. What in the world is the concussion protocol for then? What an absolute failure today. Luckily he didnt suffer any more damage in the 70 more minutes he played and he got a goal. But not taking him off immediately is all sorts of stupid if what Rodgers said was indeed the case.

Liverpool had a 10 point lead on New Years Day. There now 1 point behind.

Would be hilarious to go the whole season, only lose 1 game and still not win the league. But I want them two lose more than 1!!

I said the same thing and I wasnt even at the game.
I'm fairly sure there has never been a London derby against Chelsea and a North London Derby against Arsenal where between all 3 teams and over both games you could count how many shots there were in total on both fuckin hands.
Pathetic frankly.

Edit- just to clarify each finger can only be used once :ROFLMAO:

To follow on from my post, after watching the recent games between so called top 6 teams I am left wondering if we need to chane to 4 points for a win, 2 points for a score draw, 1 point for a no score draw and 0 points for a loss, because watching these teams keep possesion for possesions sake and not even knowing if the goalkeepers are still on the pitch or have fked off for a cup of tea is really started to bore me to tears.
Playing with fear.
Dont try anything, you might lose the ball. Oh no!!!!
Unless you have the ball around your own goal area of course. Then you can fk about and risk losing possesion until you're blue in the face and the ball is in the back of your net lol.
Wtf has happened to the beautiful game?

Klopp needs a few lines of Rennie for all of the wind he’s full of.

Blimey, :ROFLMAO: wind my arse!

Victim mentality. It's the Scouse way.

Pretty sure he's blamed rain too.

He's trolling
Trying to troll maybe, and failed horribly. He has no choice as it this point. He's already blamed all the elements and any other incidental environmental factors, manfully confronted a gobby 12 year old and just had Everton put the nut in his title hopes.
