Same issues. Can't defend and struggle against disciplined teams. We have become very easy to contain.

Gegenpressing is useless since there is nothing to press for. We're forced to play a possession game without players for it.

Newcastle were there for the taking - but we can't finish at the moment - defence makes stupid mistakes, particularly centrally - Klopp left it late to make changes - Sturridge isn't the same player anymore - where were Henderson and Wijnaldum? - and a few more?!

Sadly, one new comment: Salah and Mane were both poor by their normal standards last night.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.


Anyways, I'd like to see us try this, 4-2-3-1, Dortmund style next up against United:

Mignolet
Milner-Matip-Lovren-Robertson
Can-Henderson
Salah-Firmino-Coutinho
Mane

Mane in the Aubameyang role and Firmino back to his role that brought him success in Germany.


Finally, never been happier to have an international break!
