  1. It's all about balance. Klopp needs to protect both full backs and centre backs. I'd go with: -----------------------GK------------------------ Clyne------Lovren---------CB-------------LB ----Lucas/Milner/Stewart----Can------------ ----------------------AM/CM--------------------- Mane---------------Origi-------------------Phil Can can cover left back and left centre back and whoever plays alongside him can do the same for the right side if Mane and Phil don't track back. Nice balance over the pitch.
  2. Origi needs to be starting every single match when fit. Gives us a whole new dimension and gives space to our other attackers.
  3. We're interested in signing Paredes, according to Sky sources. b******s no doubt, but just the type of midfielder we need.
  4. Firmino is not good enough to play up front. He shouldn't be a starter for me. Same goes for Lallana. Coutinho, Origi and Mane should be the front 3 if all fit. Add Can to midfield, Mane and Origi and they'll have a different proposition to deal with. We were piss poor in midfield and up front.
  5. Klopp has been a breath of fresh air since he's been here, but it just feels he's only sorted out half of our issues. Defence and midfield are crying out for some quality. Left back is becoming a farce now and without Can playing our midfield looks completely lost and all over the shop. To go into a new season without sorting out these problems are going to cost us big this year. This season will probably be the toughest for teams chasing European qualification, let alone top 4. There are no easy games any more.
  6. We don't need £85m or even £50m on a player. In terms of what we have, we just need 2-3 more players. Left back, defensive midfielder and a midfielder that can run the game. We've been missing these type of players since Rafa was here, especially boss midfielders. Never replaced Mascherano or Xabi. All managers since Rafa (and this includes Klopp) have been clueless in terms of midfield recruitment.
  7. This has nothing to do with spending £85m on a player. It's identifying the issues of a team/squad and fixing them. It's not that hard. They backed Rodgers and they've backed Klopp. So you think we've not signed a left back because FSG are not giving Klopp the money?
  8. Nothing to do with FSG. All down to Klopp. To slow on the uptake with regards to faith he shows with Rodgers players. Most are just not up to it. Look at Guardiola, Mourinho etc. Bringing in players at the first opportunity and not f***ing about. We should be in much better shape squad wise as Klopp had a head start on all the new managers and we're still way off by the looks of things because glaring issues were not resolved in the summer.
  9. Big wake up call for Klopp this. If we don't buy a boss CM/DM and a left back at least, it's another season of f*** all.
  10. Not really. We've been here before many, many times.
  11. Massive hole in our midfield again there. Wide open.
  12. Pointless doing a MOM thread today. Everyone has been dire.
  13. f***ing hell Clyne. Wake up. He's been s*** today.
  14. That's the worst part. They are nailed on, yet we've gifted them 3 points.
  15. Pointless long ball up to Sturridge which he had no chance of winning. Can and Origi on please.
  16. That 2nd goal was an absolute disgrace from all. From Sturridge losing the ball, only Klaven managed to put in a challenge. Everyone else was just jogging back not arsed.
  17. Seriously worried about Klopp now. He just doesn't seem to prioritise the defensive side of things. We needed a boss CM/DM, not Wijnaldum. Milner at left back. There will be no easy games at all this season. Soft teams like Villa and Norwich are gone, which we've always done well against.
  18. We've become the Arsenal of the north. Too many lightweights in the team and wide open at the back. We needs some c**** in our team. How many on the pitch at the moment are going to get stuck in and roll their sleeves up? I'd rather have Milner in midfield than at left back as at least he will chase down things.
  19. Desperately need a defensive midfielder. You cannot keep playing the amount of attackers we do. It's just asking for trouble time and time again.
  20. f***.....right.....off. Absolute joke.
  21. Badly missing both Can in midfield and Mane with his directness and pace. Everything is just too slow at the moment and not really creating anything despite all the possession.
  22. The best £50 you will ever spend. Not just for footy either. Every single sports event live. Brilliant on demand as well with full replay of most live sports just in case you miss anything. Their menu system in general is boss with plenty of links for everything including all Sky Sports channels.
  23. f*** me. Just put the game on and already one down. Groundhog day.
  24. I can't see us signing anyone. Only business will be sales. Summer started so well with Karius. It just feels so incomplete with glaring issues in midfield and defence that were all to see in the Arsenal game. Attacking and scoring goals have never really been an issue under Klopp.
  25. Tony B saying Klopp still has faith in the useless f***er. Meh.
