When do we think Klopp will start to instruct our players how to defend at set pieces?
Surely it is not only VVD of all people in the world who is capable of that too?
Working with the players you have is what is most important for a manager. Why is Klopp not doing just that when it comes to our defensive problems?
Does he know how to? 2 years in and we still look like a Sunday Football team.
Klopp won the Bundesliga twice and got to the CL final, you do not achieve that without knowing how to defend, so I guess he knows how to defend/setup a team.
He has identified defense as a problem as he was desperate to bring in VvD, so he knows he needs better players. Hopefully he can coach it into them, but there's only so much you can do with someone like Klavan, there is a reason he was £4 million, so we can't expect him to become a £30 million player, he was never meant to be starter/third choice.
I would be curious to know how the coaching worked at Dortmund, did Klopp do it all? as it feels to me he needs help, particularly from people experienced in the PL, as how the smaller club play in the PL is probably different to Germany, he seems to have brought his own backroom staff in, which are probably mainly German with no PL experience?
