    Sunderland are "the most defensive team I ever saw" said Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp after his side continued their fine start to the season with a win.

    The Reds had 27 shots and 77.5% possession as goals from Divock Origi and James Milner earned a 2-0 win.

    Klopp said that Sunderland striker Victor Anichebe played "left-back" as the Black Cats used "nine defenders".

    If he is we'll just put Lallana, Sturridge or Origi in - No Drama.

    It's called depth, a new word to the Spuds. I'll try and use it in the word association thread so you get an understanding of what it means.

    Yes.

    He'd be a major player for Barca. Him behind their front 3 would be so lethal. Suarez came to meet him, looks like it's gonna happen at some point tbh.

    Yes and look he's a major player for Barca.

    We do have depth Trebs, you know it, matth knows it, even Spurlock knows it.

    I would say we have girth, but I'll stick with depth.

    He is, I was just referring to all the parallels with his time at Lverpool before he left? <whistle>

    Mate I was going to say you have the depth of my 9 year old's paddling pool, until I noticed the puddle in my back garden <rofl> You're using Milner at LB ffs and lucked out with Mane and Firmino.

    Lucked out <laugh>

    Maybe they're good players and Klopp trains them well?

    BTW - Milner is an excellent LB. So professional he'll give you 100% wherever he plays. He's better than 90% of the PL LB's and he's a CM <laugh>

    Plus Treble I'm not denying he'll leave, he's good enough to play for any club in world football. I accept that.

    Had a few #fails for breakfast today Trebs <rofl>

    They are good, but it's not like you've had to dwelve beyond them mate, hence the reference to depth. We'll see the depth when he needs to actually rotate the squad, which tbf playing one game a week hardly requires at the moment. The benefits of failure in previous seasons mate <whistle>

    Exactly why Klopp got rid of so many players mate <doh>

    We have the perfect amount of depth for where we're at this season. Klopp came out and said he didn't want a big squad, no need.

    He knows what he's doing mate. Next season when we play in the CL we'll have a bigger squad, as it will be needed.

    It's perfection Trebs. You seem rather worried mate?
