Match Day Thread Time to look at our defence 2023/2024

I think Clyne and Matip on that side are fine going forward to next season. The other center back and LB has to change but that obviously will happen.

I think Moreno might be our worst defensive player we've ever had. Certainly in my time of watching Liverpool. Djimi was dreadful but still understand how to defend. If anyone actually pays money for Moreno then we've mugged them off.

A quality CB needs to brought in, and LB. Would listen to offers for Lovren and Klavan but i think Lovren should go with Klavan being a Kolo Toure for ourselves. Promote Gomez as either the replacement or the next in line due to injuries.

 

I watched the game between Brighton and Newcastle last night (Championship) both defence are
much metter than our defence.
No manager has have the courage to fix our leaking defence since Rafa Benitez left. Scoring goal is good
but, you need to prevent opposition from scoring at your end too.

 

Our defence were under immense pressure yesterday and coped well. City and Liverpool two attacking teams from one end to the other.
To our defence, well done.

 

Our full backs were beaten a number of times yesterday. Our left channel is constantly exposed

 

I think they targeted Milner being a former player and not a natural LB.

 

That was Man City's entire game plan tbf, hence Sterling and Sane starting in the wide positions. Silva and Sterling were doubling up on Milly too.

 

If a player is doubled up on then they will always struggle.

Simple as.

Milner did his job and scored.

Klavan lost his man behind him once... goal.

 

Did well but conceded a goal that can be avoided.

 

Terrible defending cannot keep clean sheet at home, also cannot hold on to a lead.

 

Update:

Defence is still ****

 

27 goals conceded in 16 games by #LFC against the bottom half of the EPL

Goals Conceded vs Bottom half of EPL:
30 Palace
28 Swansea
27 Liverpool, Hull
6 Spurs

 

Excellent we came back from losing position, Tottenham came back from losing position and won away to Swansea. Work still need to be done.

 

We're by no means near the finished article but I feel we need CL in order to complete the squad to klopps standard.

 

Without champion league football we cannot sign class players, and possibly going to lose some of our good players to club playing champion league football.

 

I've never felt so disconnected and indifferent towards a Liverpool team in my life.

They're just annoyingly pathetic and average.

Culture of underachieving and apathy seems rife at the club.

 

Should we call it progression or regression?. ^0 points the same we had for the whole of last season. Hope we are collect more before the season finishes

 

Hardcore.

 

We have a lot of points on the board but it doesn't feel like it.

People keep pointing out we do well against the bigger teams but who cares really?

You get the same amount of points each bloody game.

No good beating Arsenal if you cant beat ****ing Burnley.
