My gripe with the high line is when we have a healthy lead we don't adapt. Against benfica for example, Klopp should of just sat back and hit them on the break let them have the ball and defend as a unit, against Chelsea we were 2 nil up we didn't adapt and we almost lost the game we ended up drawing 2-2 which is frustrating. Players need to take the initiative and sit back midgame when we are leading.

not beaten any of the top 4 this season and gave up soft crap defending goals against all of them.

And we've not been beaten by them either...and your point is?

We have 2 defeats ALL season in PL, both AWAY:

28 Dec - Leicester 1 v 0 Liverpool
7 Nov - West Ham 3 v 2 Liverpool

my point is we give up too many one on ones too easily. and thats undeniable cause we can all watch it happen.

Are we conceding an excessive amount of goals leading to us losing games and going out of competitions?

Klopp is using the technology to our advantage as I've proven time and time again and yet those still not happy use feelings as their arguments!

again the same as rafa lovers using stats to justify insanity . you can't disprove other teams getting easy chances, when we can actually see it!

We are now the League Cup holders and still in every other competition!

What exactly is it that you want EMP? because you're definitely providing the "nuts" to sprinkle on top!

better defending

The point is quite simple, our very high line works against the lesser teams whereas we concede a lot of chances against the better teams. If you watched games, you would have noticed how many times our GK has to defend one on ones. Did you watch our Spurs game? Yes our system allows for more chances to score but we should be able to change system as well. We were 6-2 up against Benfica but conceded 2 because we still held the high line. Brendan lost us league because of poor defending, remember? In the season we won it. We had by far the best defence and we were not playing that high line, yes we scored less as well, but we were champions. If we had been able to keep our lead against Brentford, we would be above City right now
