Although Asensio has been a useful squad player in recent times. The Brazilian boys are it. I had my stocks in Vini when he was getting stick in his first full season. So glad to see him develop into a world class player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty66 Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 (edited) That Bajcetic for Liverpool looks like he'll be some player too. 18 years old and playing against Real Madrid in the Champions League. Some achievement that. Edited February 21, 2023 by Scotty66 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rgk_lfc Posted February 21, 2023 Share Posted February 21, 2023 Madrid have our number. Carlo has Klopp's number. Whenever Henderson comes up against Modric for England or Liverpool, he spends an hour chasing shadows. Gomez, TAA, Matip, and VVD have all been various degrees of poor. I might be wrong, but I think a big part of it is the lack of protection from the midfield since our press is not working well. Having said that, I don't think gegen or counter-pressing will work against a team of technicians and mentality like Madrid. They will coolly ride out the press and pass around it, and in the blink of an eye, it is Modric, Vini, or Benzema against our defense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We seem to have lost our way a bit with our transfers with Michael Edwards and our transfer committee leaving. But we are being linked to interesting folks for that position. I am confident he can build the next good liverpool team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 I didn’t know Klopp’s assistant released a book basically giving extremely in-depth insights to how their team works. Surprised LFC allowed it. Know wonder they are finding it a bit tougher this year… 🙂 https://store.liverpoolfc.com/pep-lijnders-intensity Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That lad is going to be a player. Would love to have him at our club. I like Harvey too. Re: Madrid: I really like that they've built a team based on being really good at all aspects of football. They don't even outspend everyone anymore. Just sensible signings and getting the best youth in the world. 6 of that team came via the academy or were signed as teenagers - that's impressive. They don't get taught to become robots like at City or discarded because they don't fit a narrow profile. You just have to be able to perform and play. It's not great for winning league titles though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lush Vlad Posted February 22, 2023 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Again, I always feel like I’m overly critical of keepers and the goal was ruthless from City. But the commentator saying the keeper had no chance? He half shifts his weight to his right. So understand he is a bit wrong footed. But he just waves an arm at it with the ball going in the middle of the goal right next to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
