      And what styles is that...?? The high press that we don't no longer seem to do...??  :f_whistle:

      Have you not read the quotes from Klopp why we changed from high press?.
      Jeez..

      Spurs are flying Arsenal are Flying, City Are flying..

      Is that the same Arsenal that dropped points in 3 of their last 4 Prem games?  Yeah, they're really flying alright. 

      Spurs and City?  Sure, there are other sides doing well -- it's a competitive league and that's to be expected.  City are arguably the best side in the world right now, so it's really no surprise they are flying.  And yet, we are right behind them and nipping at their heels. Doesn't that mean we must be flying as well in order to be the only team within touching distance of possibly the best team in the world ???

      So tell me where i am misinformed. lying, or it is pathetic to say that you can only learn so much in training..?

      This is where you show your complete ignorance of the game.

      Everything is learned in training.

      Experience is what comes from matches.

      First you learn, then you build on it by adding experience.

      According to him and a couple of others, it's all down to luck.

      We've ridden our luck at times -- no doubt about it!!  But then, so did City last season and that worked out for them.  It's hard to win anything of note if you don't get a bit of luck at times....  This season we've done a good job of balancing our luck, defensive resilience, and attacking firepower.  It hasn't always been pretty, but it has been pretty effective!! 😎

      On the flip side, we've been unlucky as well.

      Have you not notice that I have not been replying to you...??

      I will break that for this one reply...

      You Can not get that experience if you don't play, and the more regular you play the quick your learn...  :o

      Remember It is not just about technical experience, positioning etc  It is about learn your strikers runs and where they like the ball played... That you only gain by playing a long side them in matches, not on the training field  xxxxx:action-smiley-065:

      Absolutely clueless.

      What do you think happens in training, do you think they just do a bit of running around then rock up to a match and watch each other thinking "hmm, I wonder what he's going to do today".

      We used to be known as having the most knowledgeable fans in football, then the internet happened and we ended up with muppets like you.

      You don't have to be klopp or to have played football at certain level to know that most of the things you learn comes from playing the game so yes Play them let them fail (sink) or succeeded  (swim) 

      Spurs are flying Arsenal are Flying, City Are flying.. We have just been chundering along. Luck can only take you so far eventually that luck runs out

      Edit:-

      And what styles is that...?? The high press that we don't no longer seem to do...??  :f_whistle:

      Every time you post on a thread you try act ‘knowledgeable’ and ‘controversial’ but you just come off as a F***ing weirdo.

      Biggest weapon on the forum you are, who is so clearly clueless about anything that it’s painful to even see your name on the forum, let alone read your posts.

      P.s adding ... into every sentence doesn’t make your point any more valid.

      It's still far away mate imho but he's truly promising and deserve chance in our first team next season. If it's me I will move Lallana and make Harry his replacement.

      That is your opinion and to be honest... And  Just because you disagree with some one it does not mean they are wrong or have a valid point.

      t's my opinion, like it,lump it agree with it or disagree with it

      P.s adding ... into every sentence doesn’t make your point any more valid.

      Dots after a sentence can mean different things. ... It is usually used when you break or pause your sentence. (Which is how i us it) It usually represents the excitement of the writer ( again this applies to me) about what's happening next. These can be used at the end of a page so that the reader understands that there is something waiting for him in the next page.

      Erm.... After we bought Keita & Fab...

      We are more focused on Defence which before the arrival of VVD, We were leaking in as many as we were scoring & that was not sustainable...

      It cost Rodgers & it could cost Klopp of any silverware..

      Ummm no that really isn’t what it’s for and not what it’s meant to be used for. Hence why it’s so annoying because you’re using it completely wrong.

      But thanks for the attempted grammar lesson, maybe try understand something next time before posting (which would leave you with a very low post count admittedly).

      Or he could just be Harry Wilson.

      Little bit to early to get carried away. Takes a decent free kick but takes a bit more than that as we all know. See how he does in the second half of the season. Very often you get a better idea as defenders know a bit more about him. See how he deals with that.

      Shabs... The point I was making was that these players, well Keita at least was bought in with a view to play high press football so why would the pace of the game be an issue. Why would they need to get up to pace...?

      I learnt to use it that way... But I did Google it to be sure (What does "..." in a sentence mean), and printed the answer for you... Started to mention it then though you may claim that i was insulting your intelligence so deleted that bit...Seem's that I needn't of worried about that  :roll:

      So despite the fact Klopp has said we're not playing the same "high press" football, Keita was brought in to play the "high press" football we no longer play.

      OK.

      Yep, googled it to confirm my understanding is exactly as I’ve known it to be since university and just be 100% clear that your interpretation wasn’t something I was missing.

      The fact you would go and access another forum users search history makes you an absolute creep though.
