Looks like Lallana and Ox are Coutinhos replacement. Yaaaaay

 

Who else did you expect it to be?

 

Well, Lallana as been at the club a while and played alongside Coutinho numerous times so really, Oxlade is the replacement.

 

Let's not forget that before Lallana got injured he was a key player for Klopp. If he finds his form he's a very good player. Also his pressing has been missed.

I know some on here don't really rate him but I think when he's fully fit he's a quality player.

 

Key to our pressing game.

If match fit though.

 

He can't be far off surely? Maybe another full 90.

 

He's more fit than Coutino. Better too.

 

Key in what sense? We’re playing well without him?

If only he was key in terms of goals and assists which is his primary job.

 

Yeah, because that's what we lack... goals and assists!

 

So we should judge an attacking midfielder based on his ability to press?

 

You criticise him on anything you can use. You'd say we should sell him because his wife likes twiglets!

Try watching a game with your eyes instead of stats mate, you might learn something.

 

Yet he lets Moreno off with things like defending because he’s good going forward

 

Nobody told me his wife liked Twiglets, sell the batard that's what I say.

 

Knew someone would take that response. I would've

 

but no stats to back it up

 

Lol not sure what you’re on about but I’m just dispelling this myth that he’s a key player.

Fair enough, he runs around and presses well. But this is Liverpool, not Burnley. I expect my attacking midfielders to create and score goals.

 

Is he? Not seen it yet

 

Not really - I think we need to upgrade badly but the lad gets so much stick and doesn’t get credit when he actually plays well.

 

Key player to the pressing approach is different to being a key player for the first team.

 

But he's does, it just doesn't happen often.
