      Been some horrid things said about this lad over the past 18 months, despite his (at least to some of us) obvious outstanding qualities that he has. That's both online and also some of things I've heard shouted at him at matches as well.

      Glad he's showing up some of our fan base with his performances this season. Long may it continue.

      Been some horrid defending from Moreno for posters to say horrid things let's not forget.

      Definitely been told on the training ground to keep things simple, like clearing into touch rather than constantly trying to play his way out of trouble.

      If Moreno is going to play left back then we are going to see the good the bad and the grotesque.

      This week was the good, a few weeks back was the grotesque.

      He's keeping his game a little bit more simple but his instincts are still not that of a defender.

      It's good fun watching him, there's definitely improvements in him this season so let's try and enjoy the white knuckle ride while it lasts.

      With him and Robertson at least there is natural competition there now.

      Have to agree on this, there are not many backs out there that are great and going forward and great at defending...the system we play is always going to leave the defense exposed at times but that is the nature of how we play.

      Albe has done OK for himself so far and maybe just maybe as others have spoke watching millie from the bench last season might have really made a difference.

      Great going forward, still has a lot to do defending. Still, like having a new signing actually. Welcome back.

      Another game where he was probably our best player, not sure what that says about the rest  :lmao:

      Don't think he will ever be a great defender but got to admit he has improved as an attacker and fair enough some defensively.

      Maybe not for you, but going forward he was excellent and even defensively for once all the issues were on the other side. Same as against City.

      Don't be fooled.. he was just lucky Muriel missed the 1on1 when he played him onside otherwise he could've lost us the game.

      No it wasn't, Gomez was already red carded.. it was the last Sevilla action around 90th minute.. Moreno being his usual self doesn't know where he is and plays Muriel onside leaving him 1on1 with Karius but shoots wide.. look it up if you have the chance.

      Wrong mate, Gomez getting sent off was virtually the last thing to happen in the game, the chance they had was when Gomez was still on the pitch.

      Think alby has been pretty damn good so far this season.
      Had him as my MOTM today.
      One thing I am enjoying is the little bit of footy intelligence he seems to have picked up in knowing when to back off a challenge or when to commit.
      Yeah he went awol at times last night but overall he has certainly improved.

      Or system?

      Not sure VVD coming sorts it out to be honest.

      He will improve it as he is better than Lovren but he will get exposed if the guys in other positions don't improve in this system get replaced.

      It's a collective thing when you analyse  the way we play.

      Thats a frustrating statement to wrap your head around, but a necessary one in all honesty. But how do you fix it? That's the most frustrating part about it, there don't seem to be any answers for this defense. Klopp needs to look at his personal and start telling some hard truths. He has to do some systematic changes if we want to succeed. Keeping this sh*t show up is insane and NOT what you see from an elite level manager.

      It was Gomez, literally just watched it again. Honest mistake though as it does sound like the sort of thing Moreno would do :lmao:

      You're both part right and part wrong.......

      It was Moreno who was out of line and played him on as the ball was played and Gomez weak challenge and poor control that played him in as the ball came out the air.

      I've watched both their goals again and in both circumstances he's going in the wrong direction.
