Putting aside discussions about transfers and long-term squad issues, something is seriously wrong with our attitude if this is how we are starting games. We saw it from the very first game of the season at Fulham – the players are not fully concentrated, not ready for a fight. We used to shock opposing teams with our tempo and intensity, now we're the ones who need to catch up to the opponents' tempo and while we're gradually getting to grips with the game, we often make decisive mistakes like Gomez yesterday.
It's an indictment on this team that almost 3 months into the season this problem does not appear to be any closer to getting fixed - I'm sure Klopp tried everything he could to break this pattern and it's still there for all to see.
