I think we need to see a change in tactics from Klopp in the coming weeks, not forever but just to negate the issues we have at the back.
There needs to be a change in formation in my opinion, one which will allow us to go into games with a clean sheet first mentality, it has gotten that bad at the back that unfortunately it is a must now. Perhaps when Konate is back fit we opt for three CB's or even have Gomez come in as a RCB with Trent further up the field, although he would ideally be benched before coming back into the fold.
Our back four are there for the tackling too often, this high line that worked for us so well previously is not doing the job this season, whether its because teams have sussed it out or the personnel are just not doing their jobs, it's not working. I would go for something like this maybe.
Ali
Matip VVD Konate
Gomez Tsmikas
Fab
Thiago
Bobby Diaz
Salah
Alternatively, we could go like this for the front three.
Bobby
Jota Salah
Get some confidence back at the back and see how we do up front, with Salah through the middle and Bobby and Diaz not far behind him I think we could still get goals, Fab and Thiago working as a pairing makes us more compact also.
