A bit of a basic and misleading comparision. First chelsea are starting at zero debt. Second chelsea have zero capital projects to pay for Third chelsea are lashing cash round on crap. We spent what we spent, we sold what we sold. Klopp declared himself happy. I mean its really that simple, so people shouting arrogance are shouting it at klopp, the man thats brought them every bit of joy they've seen since rodgers was dispatched. Directing ire at FSG is fairly pointless, they are not going to put money in but behind the scenes have made sure during covid we got jota and tsmikas and thaigo while not taking their main stand loan fee out. They built a global commercial giant to do that money putting in. If someone wants sugar daddies i suggest they go get a blue shirt and head for the docks, or just go support man city from the armchair... whichever.
That's why we never lose when Tsimi starts. On current form this season, I don't see any reason why Robbo should be starting over Tsimi. Unfortunately, I don't think Klopp likes benching any of his big names other than when they're injured or needs resting.
how many were corners and frees? sounds good but it looked like any ball we played in was got tot by our lads in set piece.
Wonder if thiago will go into management. Seems a very intelligent guy, speaks multiple languages and is very good tactically on the pitch. Should all help with management side of things.
Same here. Just oozes quality. His passing between the lines, the little shoulder drops to work a yard of space, makes football look so easy. Wonder if klopp is moving away from his high intensity pressing in order to prolong the usefulness of thiago as well. He’s not gonna be chasing players around for next 4 years so tactically maybe changing to allow a more controlled game where can use thiagos skills for a longer period of time.
Yeh, you could be right. Mané and Bobby were vital in our press. One gone and one on restricted time means Klopp will have to come up with an alternative. A lot of people are obsessed with players with pace which isn't always necessary when you have the skill set of players like Thiago. We really needed another skilled midfielder in to rotate with Thiago. Much as I love them both, Jones and Elliot have some way to go. I do actually see a very good player in Carvalho. He has a touch of the S American flair about him.
Interesting see what happens with Morton. Looks like has bulked up a bit from when saw him on our games. Thought he looked a tidy player in the few appearances for us. That clip he has a bit more about him on the ball than I realised. Nothing drastic but a few flicks and drop of the shoulder to create bit of space. Reminds me of thiago in that regard. Here's hoping s very good season at Blackburn and might push for a spot next summer in our team. At 20 he’s prob got a year or two before he’s moved on if not gonna make it with us.
tidy is a classic LFC type youth isn't it? we don't seem to be able to get lads who have the pace or power but they can all pass like trent. look at coady and look at clarkson etc. loads and loads of examples. This lad is a it slow tbh thats his main issue. he is 6 foot 1 inch or so and thats it.
