I think you are clueless too.That free role is what pegs teams back, that's what Coutinho did well and that's why Barca paid to 150m. I'm very sure Coutinho will play against top sides for Barca even though he's awful in defense because they have other midfielders tracking back. If you want 3 defensive midfielders you should like Mourinho. I'm sure you'd like Henderson, Gini and Fabinho sitting in the middle and having a repeat of Napoli... against top sides we need a player that pulls defenders away from strikers... Shaqiri in the free role makes it hard for defenders to man mark our strikers, however Shaqiri is defensively better than Coutinho, for an attacking midfielder he gets stuck in as well as expected. To say this type of player shouldn't feature against top sides doesn't sit well with me. We aren't a park the bus side!It's rare for me, but I have no patience for Moreno or Mignolet. If Moreno played okay today Klopp may have picked him in a bigger game that cost us big! Imagine losing points or a CL exit due to a Moreno blunder.. I'm just happy Moreno played sh*t and reminded Klopp why he shouldn't be trusted.
If I said I wouldn't have Henderson against the top teams you get in a fit, however at least I'm making that call after hundreds of games... You just make a judgement on hundreds of minutes.
Thatâs all complete waffle - Coutinho played more in the front three for us than he did in the middle, who said anything about parking the bus - clown , who said anything about 3 DM playing ?! We destroyed City and other teams last season playing âONEâ Defensive Mids and Two Box to Box ( put the one in big letters to help you out ) - if you knew how Klopp thinks then you would understand
Against Spurs he went with Milner , Gini and Kieta - against Chelsea - Milner , Henderson and Gini and the same against City - does that help you understand a bit more. He wonât have someone playing a free role against those top team
And you canât ever justify wanting one of our own players to play badly - complete and utter tosh about âKlopp going to play him because he played wellâ - clueless , he is backup and Robbo will play 99% of the time. You just dribble complete claptrap - some of the worst seen on forums.
