Though I am not sold on Jose and fear the worst, yeah, the narrative around this game was astounding.My god the english press have it in for Jose. The amount of drivel written about Klopp being superior to Jose because of the style of play. Referring to Jose as yesterdays man compared to Klopp. Its absolutely shocking. Ok im not totally staisifed with his style in first half, however jose been here 10mins, we have 5 first teamers out and playing against a very good team. What also really grinds on me is that Liverpool are effectively the same, a counter attacking team, only they like to win ball higher up instead of defending sitting back. Give Liverpool possession and they are not as effective. Then theres Sky with 3 liverpool pundits for the game. Carragher spitting about Jose needing 5 players and Poch only needing 2. What the fuck his he talking about. Its the reason Poch went, cos we need an over haul. Neville has totally got it in for him also. I would Kevin Keegan love it if Jose can work his magic and prove all these haters wrong.
Leicester, the 2nd most in form side around, went toe-to-toe with Liverpool and got eviscerated, so what chance did a misfiring, out of form, low on confidence side shorn of their talisman and with numerous players who’ve been error-prone for over a year have if we tried to do the same?
