I miss Rafa's ability to be able to play differently...to play the best formation and tactics for the fixture. I hope Klopp can change and evolve from this gengenpressing, our players seem to have downed tools, don't want to play it. If Rafa does leave Newcastle, I'd love us to bring him back as technical director / consultant to work alongside Klopp, mentoring him in the fine art of defensive football. We don't need to press the f*ck out of teams, week in week out it's obviously detrimental for the long haul.

I'm pretty sure Klopp had a good defensive record at Dortmund. So he has done it

He already had a decent backbone to his defence when he went there: Weidenfeller, Hummels, Subotic, Schmelzer We have Manninger, Karius, Mignolet, Klavan, Moreno and Milner to aid our cause  Seriously though our defence needs a major overhaul with a TOP Goalkeeper our No 1 priority in the summer and a proper LB. Hell I even think we need some competition to Clyne because he has dropped off the face of the earth this season!

Reading Carragher's piece, I wonder why players like him are not involved with the club, Klopp has brought in his own assistant, but they do not have the knowledge/experience of the PL and the teams/managers they are up against, so I wonder how much help he gets/wants, the way we setup against Leicester was crazy with Lucas in a high line against Vardy, seems we went into the game with no idea how Leicester would play and Vardy's speed on the break.

Klopp's too far in his career to suddenly become a no 2 or a joint no 1. Remember the Houllier/Evans situation too. If Rafa comes back he will be the Don, the Emperor, nuemero uno... comprende?

Because it's easy to talk a good game. Making it happen as a coach is a different ball game. Ask Gary Neville.
