Jurgen Klopp addresses 'major overhaul' as FSG facing unthinkable Liverpool reality

Your Liverpool morning headlines for Sunday, October 30.

Jurgen Klopp addresses 'major overhaul' question after Liverpool suffer shock Leeds loss

Jurgen Klopp says he won't be ripping up his Liverpool blueprint after a fourth Premier League defeat in 12 games was inflicted by Leeds United on Saturday night.

After Mohamed Salah had cancelled out Rodrigo's early goal following a mix-up between Alisson Becker and Joe Gomez, Crysencio Summerville struck a late winner to end a 29-game unbeaten home run in the Premier League for Klopp 's men dating back to March 2021.

FSG facing up to unthinkable Liverpool reality unless there is a serious re-think of strategy

A shell-shocked Kop could only sit in stunned silence as the noise from the away end filled each corner of Anfield.

They were Leeds United, we were told, they were marching on together, and, to put it in family-friendly terms, they didn't think Liverpool were particularly good. They were right on that score, at least.

The statistics will tell you that Liverpool's 29-game unbeaten home run, dating back to March 2021, is over, but this was in all actuality their first Premier League defeat in front of their own fans since April 23, 2017. You have to trawl back some 2016 days to a 2-1 win for Sam Allardyce's Crystal Palace for that setback. Its place in history is no more.

But this is about more than just the ending of a proud record, whichever one you choose to recognise. No, it is far more worrying than that. This could in fact be the moment when Anfield's aura under Jurgen Klopp was shattered; the moment when a risible, regrettable season reached a new nadir.
