KDB is an elite player but stick him in another role and what he offers might be diminished. That’s all. Bobby is an elite player in his position, stick him in another role and the same applies. Both are great players but they are different.
De Bruyne is the best player in the league, probably the best midfielder in the world. I think he could fit any team. Firmino suits our style perfectly, stick Klaim in and we lose our fluidity.
Why do people think it's possible to draw a comparison between players who have different roles? It's like trying to compare Carling with - oh, I don't know - beer. They're two different things. People seem unable to see further than the obvious eye-catching players. It's the reason why Messi and Ron get the top accolade every year. Both obviously great players, but does no-one think there are others in less glamorous roles that are equally as good at what they do?
In the type that Firmino plays? Yes, without doubt. As a player in general? No, not even close. #learntoread
Exactly. He may as well said "who was the better keeper; Banks or Pele?" Before claiming it's Pele because he was the better player.
Its catch 22. Without firm coming deep it doesn’t open space up behind for Salah and mane to move into. But st the same time without Salah and manes threat to run in behind firm wouldn’t be able to drop deep as we’d have no one up top. Its not not really about who is most important, that’s like saying which part of a car is most important, the front wheels, back wheels or engine? They all work together and without 1 or 2’of them, the machine isn’t as good as with all 3
This is same argument I have about messi and Ronaldo. Messi looks a lot better eith better players around him because he’s a team player. He needs those players to link up with in same way firm does. Ronaldo however is an individual and can win games on his own in a poor side, obviously in a good side he’s even better. Proof being their respective international careers where Ronaldo can drag Portugal up a notch but messi struggles.
As someone to lead the line absolutely. As a RM or CM no... point he he made was you can’t compare firm to hazard and de bruyne vecause they play totally different roles. Hazard actually played up top a bit few years ago and was pants.
I hit rock bottom with Rodgers, I was rapidly losing interest in football I wasn't enjoying the game and all the financial crap that comes with it bored me. I hadn't watched a post match interview in 2 years, I had no interest in what he had to say. Along comes Klopp and he has such a love of the game it's inspiring, I want us to win as always but I also want us to win for Klopp, such passion deserves success.
Klopp is the best thing to happen to this club in a long time. It’s a shame we had to go through Roy and Rodgers to get him but I’m grateful that we did. I remember klopps quote when he first came - he wants to doubters to believers.
