KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum How many trophies will we win this season?

We started poorly last season, it took abit of time for us to click, we ground out allot of early results.

Arsenal will be an interesting game, they are good going forward, but they were last season also, they can be got at, our front 3 are playing well, so we need to have a go at them, there will be a few goals!

Good up top but still a mess at the back.

Could be a 4-3 thriller.

Yeah, Klopp needs to work on that rather ramshackle high line, we haven't played it at all well and yes, Arsenal might well relish slipping a few in behind when we aren't looking. However I'm sure Klopp will address it with a week to sort it. I'd expect Arsenal to target our right wing as TAA look's to be still in the Bahamas, not that he was a brilliant defender anyway. Maybe Klopp can wake him the f**k up, between now and then.

Mm.

Either Trent wakes up sharpish, or he'll need extra cover in defence from one of the midfielders. Or alternatively Klopp decides to play Joe out there to shore things up a bit.

But taking that route will per definition hamper our attacking options on that side. Maybe Klopp should put Shaq in midfield?

Can't see Klopp playing with 4 predominantly attack minded players, don't think he's done it last season

TAA on the pitch is almost like having an extra attacking player, which was my argument with instead going for Joe to shore up defence a bit. Then to try and keep the attack going with Shaq to the right.

A way of not selecting Trent, but still keep the attack fluent from both sides of the pitch, with Andy bombing on as usual.

I understand but Klopp doesn't play 4 predominantly attack minded players and for me TAA is better than Gomez in the FB position

He usually is yes, but has been plain terrible at defending so far.

Having Gomez at fb means we'll more or less play with 3 cb's, which will balance out that extra offensive minded midfield/attack.

But anyway: I don't think Klopp will pick Shaq either. Why should he suddenly do that? But wouldn't be surprised to see Gomez instead of Trent. The question is how we then keep the offensive threat up, without Trent's crosses and corners. Salah will be more isolated out right. Maybe Ox on that side of the pitch in midfield?

Which is it then, not sure when I compare your post to your earlier one
