When Klopp arrived, he said he builds teams from the back. Definitely wasn't the case with us
well game one he got a 0-0 v spurs so he clearly tried to get a base going.

Yes you're right. It's sort of the accepted way of building a team but he's definitely focused more on the front than the back.When Klopp arrived, he said he builds teams from the back. Definitely wasn't the case with us
If go attack first, makes it more exciting.
an ultimately futile.
until we got alisson and vvd we won **** all. yeah we had mane firmino and salah and yeah we had a wee run to the CL final there in 2018 but we were also miles off til vvd arrived in the january to make it happen and alisson was icing on the cake.
Klopp could get lovern and moreno to a europa league final as well.
So his only point was about it being more exciting. Was there any excitement in there on the way to the CL final?

So seems like gravenberch will be done once Paulinha goes to Bayern. Would be a huge loss for Fulham as was quality last year.
Wonder if just waiting for Fulham to sign a replacement before the other 2 moves happen.

Some of us like exciting football.
Some apparently don't.
Sounds like a house-buying chain.
Better be quick.
THE final or the final.So his only point was about it being more exciting. Was there any excitement in there on the way to the CL final?
Cos i am talking about the final. the concussion final, the shoulder final.
I would contend the season itslef was "alright" with 75 point making it aligned with the prior season
We lost miserably in both domestic cups leaving the road to the cl more easy.
Our group was easy, we had two also rans where we won very easily heavy victories as it were. the porto game was then far too easy a game and second leg was meh. the city game was then the quarters so if that was exciting enough for you we followed it up with the roma debacles where we nearly turned easy wins to a huge upset by being a bit ****.
city played laporte at LB and otamendi at Cb in the 3-0 at anfield.
As i said it was a piss easy group and the team only came alive once we got vvd in there.
again we still won nothing but won things by adding fabinho and of course alisson to the team.
Goals might get you top 4 but defence gets you titles.
funnily enough klopp's first LFC signings were (in order)
Grujic (no 6)
Caulker (CB on loan lol )
Matip (precontract agreement signed in january)
Mane (first attacker)
Karius (what an error)
Klavan (CB)
Manninger (3rd choice GK)
Wijanladum (wh othem played deep on the elft rather than lw or 10 as expected)
Interesting set of "attacking" buys there
Maybe klopp's just bought a lot of forwards cos his old set were worn out. We've bought in jota, diaz, nunez, gakpo. one per window.
when jota arrived so did thaigo and tsimikas.
Diaz arrived on his own
Nunez came with carvalho and doak and its widely stated we really messed up in that window not getting a CM
Gakpo arrived on his own and we finish 5th.
This window we've bought 3 cms, and no cbs (thus far) and its being widely stated we are going to be in trouble at the back.
Klopp is just having to make do and fill in where he can fill in while hanging on to less than ideal players.
Origi and minamino were dispatched with thanks when klopp could
this seaosn we finally get shut of ox and keita etc and get in some players
We know ful lwell the cbs are an issue again but seemingly we cannot stretch again so will "make do"
I have stated several times I hope the forwards click cos i am only looking towards 4th and europa this season and feel if those forwards do gel they will carry us.
But to get to challenge city we need the back line rock solid.

Mourinho Chelsea mark I
Mourinho inter
If you pick the right club to go to....
Ie spend a **** tonne of money so actually build the entire team rather than one area
As JB pointed out, I said "more exciting"
