he looks to clumsy for my liking.

will score goals because he gets in the right positions but doesn’t have that polished finisher quality.

Said this after Fulham -- their full backs are knackered and they're going to be mega susceptible to counter attack goals all season long. Robertson didn't even make the 90 and its the second game of the season. You don't get to play the same 11 week in week out on a Quadruple hunt right into end of May then start a season beginning of August without consequence. The full backs cost them the league & European Cup in the run in last season and they're picking up from where they left off.

Means the way to play them at OT is to sit back and try and counter with pace ... no Ronaldo ofc and especially no ****g Eriksen in a centre forward position .. we'll see what he does ..

I saw something this week, apparently Ole really wanted Thiago, deal was done other than length of contract, we offered 3 years and Thiago wanted 4. Joel Glazer said no to the 4 years. United delayed hoping he’d accept the 3 years and he signed for the dippers instead

Saw that too.

Apparently we went back to give in to his demands by which point he’d signed for them.

Sitting back with our defence, midfield and goalkeeper is basically waiting to be beaten.

It is categorically & absolutely the only way to play them. You will see. Thiago is out so they have lost invention from midfield. Darwin is out. They won't have much guile to break down the defence beyond Diaz and Robertson/Trent can barely run at the moment. If you try and play expansively against them however with our slow midfield bringing the ball out we will get f***ed NQAT. Have to keep it tight and play down the wings on the break.

Have a look at Palace's goal tonight .. Trent was closer to the Palace goal than his own when Eze played a through ball from Palace's own half Those full backs are knackered for the time being. Time will reveal all ..

RE: Klopp 'over-evolving' them .. not sure its that .. they're just an ageing side now and have a hell of a lot of minutes on the legs. If you think our yanks have been tight with the purse strings take a look at what they've spent beyond what they've brought in on fees

Giving Salah a massive contract and paying £90m for Nunez is very un Klopp like too.

Getting in behind the full backs has always been the key, witness Rashford to Greenwood for the equaliser in the cup when we beat them at OT. It’s not £#%&!ing rocket science. If we had a keeper that could kick we’d be able to draw te press on and go over the top into the flanks. We haven’t though, and we can’t. The halfwits in our half will rip us apart on their own. We need to keep the ball out of our half as much as possible.

Time will tell all. Given they've conceded 26/26/22 in 3 of the past 4 seasons with one of the meanest defences in the history of the league 'getting in behind the fullbacks' hasn't really been a thing before (in fact some could say it has been rocket science to try and navigate it) .. but you will learn.

EDIT: Re: the FA Cup game .. they had a kid from Kidderminster & Fabinho at cb then .. this time the rhyme & reason is different

Arrogant @#%&!.

I literally gave you an example of where it’s been utilised before.
