One bad week and you want him out? How fickle are football fans? Do you remember how awful we were under Rodgers after Suarez left?

A pasting was always on the cards, with Watford missing their top three centre-halves, but they would only have kept the score down by one or two goals.
A middling club can never compete with the talent at City's disposal.
Hats off to City.

Indeed. Klopp has bought vibrancy, but along with it has brought raised expectations. He has improved the team and I'm sure he will improve it further. He didn't achieve what he did at Borussia Dortmund without knowing how to organise a team defensively as well as offensively. From what I've seen so far, the players are culpable, failing to take simple measures that are within their capability.
Liverpool are lucky to have him, considering the alternatives who might be interested in the job.

Never said I wanted him out, but he's doing a reasonable job of managing himself out of a job. He simply has to adapt his style to the premier league, thats what the best do.
What he's doing is not working, so try changing it, sacrifice some attacking flair for stability. Bring the fullbacks back towards defence, tell one of the centre midfielders to sacrifice some of their game to be more defensively minded.
"Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results."
I'm from Liverpool, and whilst I don't live there anymore, I have many friends who still do, go to games and generally talk to them about it. I can tell you now, the mood right now amongst the fans is not good, and its more than just general frustration with Klopp, and if Liverpool carry on like this its only going to get worse. When a manager starts to make consistent mistakes and even the fans know how to solve them, theres a problem
And if results dont pick up then our attacking players playing well will eventually get fed up with our defensive screwup players and become demoralised (eg, Alexi Sanchez at Arsenal)

Overhead kick by David Luiz. Now it's a yellow card. Commentators just said there's a possibility they're moving towards penalizing more and eventually banning it. Still think Mané deserved that red card?

Just imagine watching Escape to Victory now !! Pele scores an overhead volley, goal gets disallowed and Pele gets a yellow card

Have to ask what is deserving of a red in your book then?
