What he means is he is trapped in an unending hell of thread creation where no matter what he does he is getting the blame.. therefore he has to create it as soon as possible after each game.
Thought Konate looked good and Keita had a decent game. Salah was marked out of the game, but having attracted 3 players to him every time he got the ball he should have looked for an outlet rather than trying to take them on.
I thought keita had a poor start but improved first half. Second half he was toast. I actually thoigh a big creative gap between our attack and defence opened up. First half Antonio won nothing at all bit second half we seems to see the cbs drop off too much and the midfield faded I was disappointed klopp didn't send on Jones earlier.

His passes to Mane were never quite on the button lol More than happy Robbie foot on Antonio as he went through was crucial - allowed time for Naby to get back Tough game 3 points in bag Next game
This might be a controversial opinion, but here goes... Diaz is a great prospect, but he's trying to do too much on his own. In his first game I thought he was linking up with Robbo really well, but since then he seems to try and go it alone more. Players rarely walk straight into a Klopp team, they're usually indoctrinated into the team philosophy and style of play. He hasn't gone through that phase and to me that shows. He's obviously a great individual talent, and I'm hoping he'll learn quickly to play the team game. This was the great part of Firmino's game, that even when not scoring he provides the link up to the others around him. I'm not saying Diaz should be like Bobby, just that he's more like Mo and Mané, and with the three of them on the pitch we miss someone to play the Firmino role.
It'd be nice if there was actual... well you know.. end product People are raving away but I'm sitting quietly by waiting for the lad to explode. #confident
The lads quality and will get better, the goals and assists will come. The thing that impresses me most about him his his work ethic; the lad doesn't get tired, he never stops running! Edit; he may have already realised he's not getting the ball from Salah so being a bit more greedy to compensate? Salah was ridiculously greedy yesterday just before being taken off too.
Mate. One is on the left and the other is on the right. You hardly expect them to be knocking it back and forth like vvd and konate?
Is this Schothadzes a portmanteau of Shota Arvaladze, the rather ****e manager that was parachuted into Hull City to get them relegated by their new owner?
