Liverpool Forum (Anfield) - Part 27

He is a victim of his own success, now FSG expect him to everytime turn rock into diamond.

Agreed that he is a victim of his own success.
Nothing to do with FSG at the moment.
He need to ring some major changes up front to win a match.
Or else we forget about Europe next season.

We have accept what we have now and work with what we have.
If there is need to change the tactics, change it and dun continue to be so stubborn about it.
Once again, we can continue to make noise till the end of the season.
I dun think Klopp will gamble until he ran out of options.

As for Taki, I thought Taki was loaned out to satisfy the local player quota cos we got KBK.
But, it is not the case since KBK is under 21 and not bound by the restrictions.
So, there is no need to send Taki out despite all crap reasons given.

our formation n tactics is so static that every team knows how to counter.
there is no plan B to confuse the opposing team.
every one knows our counter attack is deadly, so they dont give us chance to counter.
4 home loses in a row is no joke. that last time it happens is nearly 100 years ago.

I feel this is the main reason. Every coach/manager has a "philosophy" which requires a certain set of players moulded into the coach/managers style.

Even if players are injured, they will try to play a similar style with variation or rotation, which is what Klopp did. The problem right now is he has neither the players to play his preferred style and the opposing team knows his usual tactics (high line, pressing). Usually you can counter one or the other, but not both together.

 

[Henabi]

Our team always like to bring fans to the lowest point before bouncing up...
we never do things the easy way, why ah why!??!?

Cuz we are Liverpool

We never do things the easy way XD

 

[relaxlabrudder]

Worst thing is Minamino has been scoring

I dunno...
I observe that the problem does not lie on those newly recruited, backup or subbed players. More often it happened to those regular 11.

Their positioning and passing are the ones that are static. Klopp and them regulars are stubbornly confident becos of past successes. They are not part of the "broken" in "if it ain't broken dun fix it". So they carryon their same methodology of atk approach. The main core is there. So the problem lies also the core mindset.

So the part that the football is still effective but not productive comes. It gave klopp the idea his team and the football is OK. But becomes "its like this, we played well but... " belief. A belief that the slum will stop & reform itself. Players jus have to go on playing well.

I dun support that we need to break the team up and sell or get the players klopp wants regardless of. But I will be keen and surprised if klopp make some bold changes and adopt a new lfc to take on the remaining games.

We are following the footpath of Leicester. They won the EPL in 2016 but Ranieri was sacked the next season as the team cannot perform and almost end up in the relegation zone.

Sad to say, but maybe we are only a one season wonder.

It is a good thing for him.
He scored on his debut and 3rd match for Saints.
He show how fast and good he can adapt.

He also show that we are not good enough to utilize him to our advantage.
There is a argument about Klopp's ability to polish stone into gem.
It is not really true in this case.
Origi still did not shine after so much appearance this season.

klopp will not replaced firmino for him.
he was supposed to be backup for firmino but end up no where or play in wrong position

We confirm not one season wonder la. Dun forget previous previous season won cl and 1 point behind mcity. What happen this season maybe e defensive issues really gave a big blow to e team. Although i agree defensive issues or not. Our attack need be more potent

Whether we are one season wonder is up to individual interpretation. But the fact is that for all our brilliance over the past few seasons, we have won the league only once despite leading the table at Christmas for consecutive 3 seasons. To me, it’s disappointing and the fall from grace is shocking.

Our problems go beyond defensive issues now. I don’t believe we will be back to beating everyone once vvd and Gomez are back. In last night’s game, the keeper, fullbacks and front 3 are our regulars. Our main sources of goals are still playing but we have gotten 2 goals from the last 6 home games. I don’t know whether it is complacency or what, but the mentality and hunger don’t seem to be there anymore.

Somehow our style of play had changed to a more prosession approach. But we do not have the technical ability to dribble past the wall like mancity. We need to go back to our previous style of play.

Klopp dun have bird nest or abalone to cook his porridge.
He is left with ikan bilis, some chicken meat and salted vegetable.
He may not have the players to do any tactical change.
Replacing Mr F from the starting line-up is a start.

Actually BR is not doing such a bad job. He is keeping Leicester in the top 6 without spending much and with a squad of average players.

He is good in grooming and spotting youth players.
But, he tend to lose momentum in the final stage of the season.
Or else he can win the title.
It is a matter of time that he can assemble a winning team and win something eventually.
Provided the top clubs dun break up his team.

west ham also doing well very this season.
