so being positive about this at minimum 0-3 loss to please some I just want to see more out of every player, more urgency and thought to what they are doing, more awareness of the situation of the club and more adherence to the philosophy that does work. I don't want to see the defenders and keeper blindly just smash the ball away from goal but i do want to see awareness of the situation at hand. Examples: Alisson needs to see throwing a goal in kills us so he should keep passing it like he does but if there's a real press on it must go, doing a pass like he did last week showed a huge lack of awareness and care imo. Same for defenders passing the ball behind people or not being turned and faced the right way ready for the ball. they need the urgency to get turned and be in the position to receive and make the next pass and not abdicate the responsibility by knocking it right back where it came from. (matip and trent are usually most guilt of this but vvd was there as well. CMS need to see that thier actions in our own half have led to goals and needs to be much better. Elliott and thiago have don't showboating stuff and got caught out recently. Needs to be better. Salah needs to do more and can do more. I'd rather a great 60 and off than an average 90 there. We need to get this into his head and klopp';s head that the intensity must be high or they get benched. Salah needs to do what he did 5 years ago and if that means he will be subbed so be it. we need peak mo salah. I would just like to see that mentality of being up for the fight and ready to go. Fulham absolutely creamed us day 1 but we fought hard. 2-2 was the result of pure digging in imo and really thats what we need here.
nunez 90% confirmed out. Firmino now confirmed as longer term injury after yet another adverse reaction in rehab (how many is this now?) We need to start thinking what might this mean. Alisson trent matip konate robertson henderson fabinho thiago Salah Gakpo (ox, elliott or carvalho) sub = milner.
I assume the same line up though would like to see something along the lines of Allisson TAA Matip Konate Robbo Thago Fabino Ox Carvalho Gakpo Salah
that would be interesting to see. if carvalho could do that and help cms and ox could help with trossachs it'd be a major improvement. could also swap the front 4 about to get gakpo up top I guess?
well assuming the Scottish mountains are meant to be Trossard there has to be serious question mark over him playing as he apparently has "attitude" problems also known as being tapped up by Spurs .
Gakpo looking an inspired choice. Klopp must have known Darwin was going to be injured. Brilliant prognosticating by Klopp. Proves once again he's a genius and anyone that doubts his decisions is a fool.
I also like this idea for a diamond or 2 buses parked in front if back 4. a narrow midfield allowing full backs to run on but the two blocks must actually stand and block. lump it at the last lads over top and then the advanced 2 go join. all good options
Trossard been dropped from squad. Big falling out with manager over training/lack of, wants to leave the club.
Not a tease, it’s all out there on big sites. Agent has gone off on one and pretty much ended his career at Brighton.
