Chelsea (A): Build Up

I ****ing love Klopp.

Macca spot on what he's saying on BT. We are creating enough quality chances to score goals. Lot of long/pot shots, players not getting into wide areas, everything very narrow and condensed.

We have players that should be killing teams with their movement and work rate in Coutinho, Lallana, Firmino & even Milner when on form. Have to get in the right areas today & create chances.

Don't think we are creating a lot of quality chances. We do create a lot of chances but a lot seem to be more hit and hope rather than carving open a back line open and then missing a clear cut chance.

Surely you mean the other way round, i.e we are NOT creating enough quality chances?

Totally. He talks a whole bunch of sense to be honest. It's the total lack of intelligent running that the likes of Suarez and Sturridge gave us that is killing us now. Defenders can hold their position knowing that there isn't a dynamic mutha****er who is going to drag them around and combine that with a total lack of width. Too packed in the middle and no space to get through.

Ultimate mind game today would be for Klopp to walk out at the bridge today, shake Jose's hand, sit down in the dug out then for Eva to walk out after him and take her seat next to klopp as the new LFC doctor.

I think Jose's head would explode.

klopp stands to greet her as she approaches the dug out, holds her in his arms, gives jose a sideways look, then gives her a long lingering kiss while cupping her tight little tush. watch maureen explode.

I've just thought, this is the first formation where Klopp has tried something new and not gone with the obvious.
Tactics should be interesting. I'm expecting a very high line from us and lots of gegenpressing

That's a big Chelsea side, very workman like can see them trying to pick up fouls to load the box up and nick a goal from a FK

absolutely mate. Huge game for our attacking midfielders in Coutinho/Lallana/Milner to show that they have quality and can cause problems for Chelsea. They need to be better than just work rate.

The chavs are showing a lot of love for Lucas in the tunnel...

[dizzycat]

Firmino has a huge opportunity to show us what he can do to today. I can't think of an available team that would offer him more freedom to impress than what we have. If he can get tight on the center halves we could have a very interesting and fun afternoon. It will boil down to the quality of his movement I guess.

Shoddy posting. I expect a dramatic improvement before the day is out, otherwise you are getting transferred to RAWK.
