To be fair corner delivery aside I thought he was poor last night.
He's a piano carrier who in the absence of the key players is expexted to become the piano player and he's not good enough for that.
In a team with Salah, Mane, Firmino and Coutinho all the bad stuff is forgiven but when it falls on him to create and find a pass, I'm afraid he's not got it in him.
Again a useful player to have, but you wouldn't want to be too reliant on him to load the bullets.
You and I watched a different game than mate. He worked his butt off to get the ball back, delivered 4 great set piece crosses, defended well, and was part of a few counters that fell apart because other people (Lallana). This kid is only going to get better under Klopp. Just watching him makes you realize two things.
1. How good he can be with time to develop in our system.
2. How good of a player manager Klopp is. To get the improvement out of the the likes Ox, Salah, and Robbo I’m just a short amount of time makes you wonder where this team will be two years from now.
