Jurgen Klopp challenged his Liverpool flops to prove they have the stomach for a fight after capitulating in a woeful 3-0 defeat against Watford.

Klopp's side fell apart after a blunder from Reds goalkeeper Adam Bogdan was punished by Watford's Nathan Ake in the third minute at Vicarage Road on Sunday.

Showing little resistance against tenacious opponents, Liverpool conceded a sloppy second goal when Odion Ighalo bullied Martin Skrtel into another mistake in the 15th minute.

Liverpool never threatened a response as Watford wrapped up their first home win over the Reds since 1986 when in-form Ighalo headed home in the closing minutes. It was the heaviest defeat of Klopp's two-month reign and by far the worst performance.


Coming after praise was heaped on the German and his players following impressive wins at Manchester City and Southampton, Klopp wants to see what kind of response Liverpool, without a win in four matches, can summon now the going is a little tougher.

Klopp is saying the same thing I said all season long - "the players need to step up" - (they are making my manager(s) look bad). Some ah we on here want to make it out like seh is the former manager fault, the current manager seems to believe these players can do it (I don't agree, but will give him the benefit of the doubt as I did the former manager) so we have to low him. For my money, FSG have to buss out the check book in January, or else rebuilding in May will be a MASSIVE task and almost certainly leave us behind the 8-ball especially if we don't finish top 4. Still, all is not lost. The league is very competitive which works to our advantage. No run away winner, no guaranteed top 4 and no reason to believe we can't improve. Walk good Herr Klopp, me deh ya fi banish the wagonis' dem!
