I was reading an article a little while back which did some analysis pre and post VvD injury.

Turns out that after he got injured, we played a much higher line, and indeed general shape, whereas pretty much everyone expected the opposite.

The last few games, we've dominated possession. Suffocated the opposition. The centre backs have been stationed beyond the centre circle. The opponents side of the centre circle. That's just mad.

The result? Fewer goals conceded overall.

Defence is not the problem people are making out.

Problem is the lack of goals, I've always said that I think you need to be scoring 2 goals if you want to win a game and we haven't been doing that in most of the games we have dropped points in recently

I agree that defence isnt the problem but many perceive the lack of pace of phillips or williams to be a weakness because of our high line.

Well, we’ve signed a 16 year old central defender, Stefan Bajtecic.

[ChesterDave]

He's starting on Monday

So true. I was joking with my daughter that we need to see a heat map of our CBs at the ends of our game with WBA as I'm sure no player except Alisson would even register in our half.

It's a good ploy. If the likes of Newcastle's Callum Wilson are going to break our offside trap then he'll have to start from 60 or 70 yards out instead of 40 or 50 (since he'll initially be tracking our CBs who have pushed so far forward). That's a hell of a sprint when the ball breaks for him. Klopp really is a genius thinker.

need a long term partner for VVD

Big V has a long term sick bay partner in Joey G. We don’t need any more

The words long term sick partner should be enough to settle that

I had a sometime sick partner once. On occasions she’d sit on my cock and demand i call her Auntie Lorena.

Thinking about it, Mebbe she should have ended up with Fredo.

Who was Auntie Lorena out of interest?

[Roboklopp]

Lorena was her name, the auntie bit was one of her alter egos.
