Sevilla away (CL) Build up

[Lecter]

occasionally yes, but the one massive thing in his favour is his blinding pace, he can often recover if he has misjudged a bounce or something.
good player, in 18 months he will be the first name on the team sheet.

Thats the worry for me

Players with pace don't often improve positionally because they have the get out of jail card that is pace

So we're still top of the group, right? If we beat Spartak at home we'll finish top, which doesn't seem too big of an ask...

But we are so predictable. Any one of us could have seen this coming. We could have wrapped up the group today, but we bottled it. We always do this. When a routine win or draw is all we need, we manage to draw or lose.

We're making it difficult for ourselves though, we're top of the group at the moment. But Sevilla will win, so that means that we have to beat Spartak to win the group, which puts us on pressure, of the 5 games in the group stage so far our only wins have been against Maribor.

Just looking at groups ....Real Madrid, Bayern & juve will probably finish 2nd in there groups. Going to need a lucky draw to progress further.

23 goals conceded away from home this season

I think the lack of contol our midfield has needs to be addressed. It is very average.

Let's Keita doesn't go on a red card run next season!

I really hope the Goretzke rumours are true. Juve can have Can for free.

Moreno is a moron obviously. But looking at the bigger picture Henderson was atrocious. We were a man down with him. Wijnaldum wasn't much better but ran himself into the ground covering for our captain.

Can should have started as I mentioned before the game kicked off. That's on Klopp.

However, Sevilla are treating this like a win. It's not. They would have finished second in the group had they lost 10-0 or drawn 3-3. What they needed was a home win against us to finish top. Relying on Moscow to hold us off is not going to happen.

Both Moscow and Sevilla celebrating home draws against us like world cup wins only means we are the Real Madrid of this group. I'll take the flattery.

It's basics for me

Fundamentals of defending

Being goalside and body shape. You should be picking that up at schoolboy level

He's quick and that for me gets him out of trouble but watch him and keep thinking "goalside" and then you will start to worry

Can't say I've ever noticed it really, I will watch closer now.

It could well be the pace I'm seeing. He's good at headers and his tackling, passing is also good. The positives far outweigh the negatives.

He will improve I've no doubt about it.

We could have had Maldini at LB and they were still coming back into that match. We were played off the part in the second half, barely had the ball, faced wave after wave of attacks and could do nothing to relieve the pressure. You've got to be some kind of special moron to completely ignore all of that and focus solely on the defensive mistakes that did happen as we were creaking at the seams. Our problem tonight went much deeper than Alberto Moreno, he was the weak point but he didn't create the pressure. We got completely schooled in that half.

[Slinky Skills]

Just like to add that was a terrible refereeing performance.

[Big-Red-Ed]

Our attacking front 3 or 4 deserve a better team behind them.

You're such a pompous, tiresome bore. You have literally nothing to teach these international level footballers about defending, or anything else for that matter.

Watch his starting position even when making headers

To me if you can't be positionally correct there are no positives when defending

I would have taken a draw before the game

This group was a piece of piss. Yet we made it hard for ourselves. ****in joke
