I'm not going to look at a team performance like last night, or any other, and single-out the fucking left back as being the prime culprit for a team that can't make chances or defend or press properly across the pitch.

 

I don't ever recall Barcelona, or Bayern, or Juventus, or any other fucking team saying "the biggest problem with our team is our left back, he's ruining everything".

 

I feel sorry for our entire defence, they're being hung out to dry and all eyes are on them when they should be on the midfield and attack for not giving the opposition enough to worry about at the other end.

 

Genuinely, I think we'd have more joy with the following formation/selection than we currently do:

 

----------------Mignolet----------------

Clyne--Flanno--Sakho--Lovren--Moreno--Smith

--------Allen---Coutinho---Firmino----------

-----------------Benteke------------------

 

Fuck the midfield off completely, just have a backline with 6 in it, and then let 4 players try to score.

I've tipped Flanagan to take his place, but with competition I hope he'll improve and we might have at least a little depth at fullback. He's brainless, but a great athlete and he's also one of the few who show a bit of fight when things get niggly.

 

Having said that, I'd go Se7en on him and glue a revolver in one of his hands and a hair-clipper in the other. He needs to make a decision.

The game in the PL these days is becoming less and less technical, it's just basketball, midfields are largely fucking pointless as a point from which to 'build an attack'.

 

It's sad but true, which is why we see Leicester leading the PL, and yet will get hammered 8-0 in the CL by Barca or Bayern, with consumate ease.

 

It's why Man City are still in the title race, and have been for years, despite seldom having a midfielder of note. Yaya Toure, for me, is more of a deep-lying attacker, and his goals and lack of defensive ability allude to that.

 

 

Wanker league.

I was thinking the same thing just watching this shite game - the physical side of the game is so overwhelming, that the technical side cannot keep up. The wealth of the league has allowed all the teams to buy the most physically advanced players possible - there is no time on the ball - our team wants a couple of touches, and this will not work now.

Leister not only have a quick team, but also a few guys who can function technically in the mix as well - our players better adapt quickly. Knocking it about after looking this way and than does not cut it. In fact WE are the ones who cannot handle the press, not the other way around.

Starting to get annoyed with Klopp giving this clown so much game time. Smith has barely put a foot wrong in the games he's played and Flanno will hopefully soon be fit to take over too.

Moreno just seems to have gone backwards massively. He's just seems to get thicker by the minute.

His decision making is criminal. Just look at that haircut. Fucking hell!

 

Rob Jones was nicknamed Trigger because he was a bit thick by all accounts. When it turned out that Jason McAteer might be a bit thicker, they nicknamed him Double Trigger. Since then we may have had more than our fair share of absolute thickos in the squad but Moreno really does look like his IQ is in the negative so his nickname ought to be Triple Trigger. At least it's more pleasant than some of the stuff I want to shout at him.
