Mamba, Gulasci came through our academy and is now top of the Bundesliga. Ward is looking very promising too. OK we bought them as youngsters but they've both been coached by JA and haven't turned to shiiiit.

Klopp has said he trusts him, so that's good enough for me.

Simple fact is none of you have a clue whether Achterberg is good at is job or not.

I think our manager is good at his though, and he is keeping Achterberg, so suck it up haters.

Fans never really know anything. Our opinions don't matter anyway because they are dependent on the info we have, which is severely limited.

Going on the info I have, which I admit is very limited, I would replace him. Obviously this could be way off the mark but if fans commented only on what they know is fact then close down all the forums.

The fact that Klopp backs him is good enough for me too, but that doesn't mean I don't have my own opinion, whose accuracy or otherwise I will probably never know.

So if an opinion differs you're a hater?

The proof is in the pudding!

Mignolet has worked with JA for 3 seasons and hasn't improved, so we go and get another keeper and all be it a young one he's making the same mistakes!

Look, it's not rocket sconce, we can't be blaming all these pre Madonna players so we have to find an escape goat and that Achterberg.

Well hes the goat because hes been the one thats been around for several years

Gomez has traveled with the squad today

Does that mean one of the other CBs hasn't travelled?

I think lovren may be injured, suspect he'll be on the bench with klavan starting

Balls

Oh, ive just looked and apparently lovren did travel with the squad

Stop messing with my emotions

In wouldn't mind seeing Klavan get a run alongside Matip to be honest.

Not convinced Lovren is really better than him.

Quite like Klavan. Looked solid enough against West Ham and he's got a good cross field pass on him out to the right back position.

"Klopp has said he trusts him, so that's good enough for me."

Klopp is not perfect either.

Liverpool have scored just 1 goal in their last 7 visits to the Riverside Stadium.

When did we last play them?

At the riverside? In 08/09, we lost 2-0. That game pretty much ended in our title chances.

Mascherano was right back and got rinsed.

Who knew he would turn out regularly as a defender for Barca after that!

Shame we never replaced masch

"Mascherano was right back and got rinsed."

By Downing?

Yup. Downing won man of the match and Brad Jones kept a clean sheet. Sums up our record at that venue.
