Paul,
I didn't see the match, nor have I read any match reports, but I did hear Klopp on the radio (BBC) briefly and from the 30 second snippet, he seemed to think that we had the better of the game and were the better team except for the crucial lapse at the end. While he is our manager, and one might think that that is what a manager might say regardless of the result, JK has been very forthright in his comments and so I take his word that that was the case, i.e. that we had a very good game.
Hearing this, that we were not walked over nor a mess, made me very optimistic about the return leg and I fully expect us to take the tie at Anfield.
Regarding the wagonist/bloggers, I hate to imagine the vitriol that would have spewed forth on the internet, including this very forum, had Brendan Rodgers been at the helm.
Add indeed the silence from the usual suspects (of windbags) is indeed, proverbially, deafening. Maybe I'm one ?! 
Last observation; until and unless the waggonist/bloggers understand who THEY are, you will forever get these yappers pretending to be visionaries and more full of knowledge than anyone else, (anyone hear the expression hindsight is 20/20 vision?). They can comfortably (and cowardly)write drivel about Klopp or any manager (and I'm speaking in general) from the refuge of their living room and beat up their toothless gums and frankly, chat sh!t. This is NOT to say that the managers are beyond criticism, however the manner in which it is done demonstrates clearly how a genuine supporter should comport himself. I witness here that some Arsenal fans have become more than disgruntled with Wenger... their point(s) have been made, it is understood where they stand with respect to him, and yet I don't get a sense that they have contemplated throwing out the baby with the bath water.
BTW, thanks for the synopsis of what transpired yesterday! I'll see if I can watch a replay.

We need one of those matches where everyone wants to, and does, get on the scoresheet.
