Chicog Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 (edited) For those that don't speak Spanish, Llorente just shouted "Vamos" to the crowd, or loosely translated: "Let's Go!" or "Come on!". Edited January 21, 2017 by Chicog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangrakBob Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 We never seem to have a plan B. Again very flat, no urgency, pace, fluidity. Too many games and not enough depth. Whether Matip got to train in the last session of not I would have had him on the park instead of Klavan. I'm now of the opinion Can is just not good enough. Worst showing by Hendo I've seen in a long time. How do you go to OT and they get a late equalised goal and the next week Swansea put 3 past you at home. We've not won a game without Mane. Going to be a long run in and a difficult job to hang on to 4th. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

petermik Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I read a comment last week from a scouse contributer on this forum saying United were long ball merchants and ale-house footballers,I would like his take on Liverpools tactics in the last 20 minutes of this game 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted January 22, 2017 Share Posted January 22, 2017 I read an interesting piece regards Klopp's tactics for this in that Liverpools forward play is based around the pace of Mane, yet in his absence Klopp still tried to play the same rather than adapt in his absence. Thoughts? Second point was in his decision to play two sitting midfielders, at Anfield to the bottom of the league side thats conceded the most goals? Valid points?

Our attack is not based around Mane, but he is a massive part of it. His pace is so often the catalyst that pull the gaps open for the likes of Coutinho, Firmino and Lallana. Mane is missed big time, and it is obviously quite evident. I don't understand why Klopp hasn't thrown Ojo in, in Mane's absence. Instead Lallana slots in and that is why you have Can playing with Gini and Hendo. i'd prefer Ojo or even Sturridge out wide and Lallana back with Gini and Hendo holding. You have to remember we've had a lot of injuries throughout the season, and Klopp has been having to constantly tinker, cover and change the starting line up because of this and now the amount of games being played in January and we have lost the momentum. It just exposes the fact we have a great starting 11 when fit and available, but lack of quality in depth is very obvious. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
