Stop talking shite. It’s embarrassing.

He's right though. It's a derby and not one of ours looks interested in getting stuck in.

Diaz can hold his head up, the others have been awful

He's played well. A few of them have been genuinely humiliating to watch unfortunately.

And the unfair stupid VAR decisions that ruined his time here.. The Diaz one against Spurs was the last straw for me…
Oh yes agreed with this also, along with having to put up with the pure shite in the British press

He looks tired and needs a long break. It’s just a shame we couldn’t end on a high with him.

I've got a horrible feeling they'll gift it to Arsenal. And they'll get their title run in win against City that we never got. Please don't let it happen!

I hope Arsenal win it. I've no respect for anyone wanting 115 to win anything.

Jurgen, we’re sorry you had to go out this way. Almost every player should hang their head in shame, there needs to be a massive clear out.

Clear out of some"fans" you mean, right?

"A massive clear out" of a squad that, whilst ending in disappointment, kept themselves in a title race until mid-April in a season where nobody expected us to be in title race at all.

Absolute nonsense.

We need to keep building in the squad, not clear it out.

I would reset the attack though. But we need to add to defence and see about a midfielder

Jurgen is knackered and running on fumes, and its transmitting to the players. They're all burnt out physically and emotionally.
Mostly I'm fine with being right in the race until almost the end and having a cup and CL football next season.
But the fact that Jurgen's time is fizzling out in such an embarrassing fashion is unbearable.

I doubt we will ever find out the reason but the draw at Old Trafford seemed to throw everyone out.

No one believed we could win the title.

Attack let us down since Xmas.

The shot conversion fell off a cliff.

Sadly the season has pettered out, but we never expected a title challenge in the Summer, we won a Trophy to show for it and we have a good group of Kids coming through, we go again next season with a new Guy at the helm.

Feels like such a waste of time watching a group of players give up on the title so easily. Half of them look like they have one eye on the Euro's and Trent looks like he can't really be arsed with the dirty work any more.

2015 Klopp would have torn some of these players apart and dropped them for youth players by now but these days they get a free pass.

I almost, ALMOST feel it would have been better if we didn't challenge. If we were just in a top 4 race it wouldn't be as bad.

But backlash would be that we should have won the title and the players fucked it.

Now tonight cannot be condoned, no question about it. But I do think the overall mood about this squad would be better if we were never in the title challenge, which by all right we never should have been in

I think that's us done.

Fair play. We needed to take points earlier in the season for a cushion which we didn't do. Refs really hurt us this season, it has to be said.

The team deserves our backing, don't turn on the players because of 2 weeks of poor performances. This isn't Chelsea, City, or United, we are not spoiled babies, back the team and show respect to the players.

He's given up. How Darwin Nunez and Mo Salah have played 90 minutes is shameful. Losing 2-0 to Everton while chasing the league and bring on 3 defenders and a DM. Na.
