Popular Post BangrakBob Posted May 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2018 49 minutes ago, wilai said: Was never too worried about the result last night but it is a little concerning that despite VVD's influence, we have a tendency to switch off and drop far too deep at times. TAA and Lovren are then targeted with long diagonals on the edge of our box. Would prefer we kept a higher line and used our pace to recover anything over the top. Lovren should be keeping him up. Lovren needs to check his emotion too, he gets to wound up for these big games and it often clouds his judgement (that’s me being kind). To be fair to the lads last night, it was a massive test of nerve and all considered they came out on top. What a campaign, just astonishing considering our hopes at the start of the season. Jurgen Klopp in his second full season, and another European final. You do get a feeling this is just the start. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do get a feeling this is just the start. yeah and it's very stark now the areas we need to address. already got naby keita coming in in the summer, sign 3 or 4 quality additions and we'll be in good shape. you're right about lovren too, his head goes to bits in big games doesn't it? even with the big comforting blanket of virgil next to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hackjam Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Well done Liverpool, should be a cracking final, RM are in decline, Ramos will be taken to the cleaners and Ronaldo is not firing on all cylinders lately. Liverpool will score goals against them, that I am sure of. But to concede 4 goals in a European cup semi final is criminal. But my big fear is defense and keeper. That kid at full back had a nightmare last night, he looks good going forward but is clueless in the art of defending. A goalkeeper to palm the ball the way he did for their second goal, into path of the forward, totally amateurish. And then there is Lovren.

And then there is Lovren. don't agree with that at all. what i see is a squad full of players who have won the last two european cups and absolutely know what it takes to win it. they're an experienced, crack team of senior pros who are used to winning stuff. and they will rightly be favourites. that said, i am reminded of the starting XI of the milan team in the 2005 final: dida, cafu, nesta, stam, maldini, gattuso, seedorf, pirlo, kaka, crespo, shevchenko. basically a world star in every position. and we beat them with djimi traore in the team. so, you know. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CarolinaJames Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 That doesn’t mean he isn’t a huge improvement over Lovren.I could be wrong but I thought Toby was injured for most of the season and now there are doubts about his future with Spurs.

carmine Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Been noticing of recent Lovren has a very big trap on him and using it to excess of recent. Now spouting off about Real Madrid. Being as he is so clearly the weakest link and could well get turned inside out i'd have thought Klopp would be telling him to button it. Others, by all means shout to the hill tops but Lovren.....dies he feel Madrid need extra motivation of something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bossed by Bayern, slapped past Juve by the king of their teeth.....

Rc2702 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I like their confidence I hope it settles the Madrid invincible into a false sense of security and Klopp pins articles like this to the training ground every day until the final. My only concern is the Defence gets back to what it had been doing before the last few games and shows more composure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
