Disagree, I think our midfielders are good enough to hold onto the ball if instructed to play like that. It's just whether they should be clever enough to take some initiative and make that decision by themselves from time to time if it's not coming from the coaches.


No they're not. Thiago maybe - but not the rest. We actually tried to play it around the back but got harried into give aways or kicking it out of play. Milner and Hendo are tidy players - but not wizards on the ball. I think we need midfielders who are much better on the ball.

I don't think Klopp knows how to set up a defensive team, we look don't all over the place when teams put us under pressure, sometimes we do hold, but only just. Most teams defending against us have 2 distinct lines of defence waiting patiently, we dint seem to do that
