He's one that always shows up. Great turn around for the 2nd half by the team.
And he had to do it with zero protection from the ref; repeatedly kicked from behind by Albiol...
Still not sure how they were successfully bushwacked in the first half.
Credit to Emery and Villareal but as soon as the 2hf started, you could see his players were not able to sustain the intensity...
Yeah, was like magic. Suddenly the spaces started popping up everywhere.
Perhaps because of his emphasis on the human/mentality side of the game, its not often spoken about, the level of his tactical management of the game.
https://www.theguardian.com/football/bl ... ague-finalBut Klopp felt the situation turn when Naby Keïta did likewise on to a pass into a seam of space. The midfielder had Sadio Mané in front of him, plus others, including Díaz and, at last, Liverpool were looking forward.
“We turned and we were running with four or five players towards their last line,” Klopp said. “Honestly, when I saw we could turn with the ball and for the first time pass through their line, I knew we had a good chance to turn it around.”
It felt like a relatively small moment – not as eye-catching, for example, as Díaz’s menace. But when a team have a style as well-grooved as that of Liverpool, a way which works, which they all know does work and will continue to work, it does not take much for the certainty to return.

Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
..expecting a tough game vs Spurs
Form is temporary; Class is Permanent!
Liverpool, European Champions 2005.
We watched this very boring video, 500 times, of Sacchi doing defensive drills, using sticks and without the ball, with Maldini, Baresi and Albertini. We used to think before then that if the other players are better, you have to lose. After that we learned anything is possible – you can beat better teams by using tactics." Jurgen Klopp

Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
As expected tough game. Really good setup from Spurs for a predominantly transition game.
Not enough invention up top by LFC for this kind of deep seating tactic.
Advantage remains with City.

Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
I thought Origi in for Mane at 75 minutes would have been a good call. Henderson should always rest at 65 minutes. Can't carry tires Henderson and Fabinho on the field together after 65 minutes in a game like this. Whatever happened to Jota?
Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
Good point for the Mersey, have City recovered from the mare in Madrid? The Toon may have come too soon.
Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
I think we have blown it with that draw with Spurs. Oh well, the quadruple was fun whilst it lasted. Now to concentrate on the other 2 cups.

Double entendre. The Toon did indeed come too soon from a Liverpudlian perspective.

Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
Foregone conclusion it is not. West Ham will not be a stroll in the park at the Olympic Park. Wolves away could be a long night.
Villa have nothing to play for, should be a comfortable innings for Pool. As long as Liverpool don’t drop any more points, they’re still well in.

Re: Liverpool - Football Thread
An important win. Allison oils have been better off not saving that offside attempt. Any rule that gives you a disadvantage from making a good save should be scrapped. Linesman even had the benefit of the cut of the grass and still got it wrong. Should have flagged as soon as Allison made the save. Madness. Anyway, we go again Saturday. Massive game. Hope Fab is ok. YNWA....
