Hi Ed1, have you heard anything from your sources that suggest Klopp is likely to shake up the team or formation this week? Something needs to change.

Thanks in advance.

{Ed001's Note - nothing yet mate, but I never ask about teams etc as I was asked not to mention stuff like that on the site by the club a few years back. If I don't know I can't let something slip!}

I think we should change formation to 5-3-2 personally and try TAA and Moreno as wing backs with cb's of Gomez, Lovren and Matip. Then play Henderson, Wijnaldum and Couts deep with Firmino and Sturridge (or Solanke) up top.

It couldn't be worse than the 2-6-3 we currently play.

Also, I hope Ward gets the start this weekend but I'm not holding my breath. I like Klopp but he seems stubborn.

24 Oct 2017 19:26:38
Salah?

24 Oct 2017 20:36:04
Lovren and Klavan should be nowhere near the starting 11 ever again.

24 Oct 2017 21:19:51
Lovren? really? Yeah solve our defensive problem by having more of our crap defenders on the pitch at the same time! Funny :)

25 Oct 2017 00:39:11
We can't play 3 at back cos we only have 4 centre backs with one of them Gomez is stand in right back also one injury an we are badly exposed we would have too play klavan if any injuries, or Can as a emergency centre back, perfectly illustrating wasted summer transfer window.

25 Oct 2017 07:06:17
We don't have the quality at CB to play 3. Give karius a run in the team with ward as back up 5 games then throw ward in if no improvement.

Get Milner in at LB or as DM.

I think they should employ the 343 and give that a try

Ward/ Karius

Matip/ Gomez/ Lovren (sadly because we have no one else but if I could, I think he needs away from the team after last performance, give him a reason to improve)

TAA/ hendo/ can/ coutinho

Ox/ bobby/ salah

Another possibility would be to try and take matip off too. He knows he is guaranteed starter right now, so isn’t playing as hard as he can. Because he knows he on the team sheet, so just isn’t trying that hard.
I would also chuck ox in to give him a run in a position he wants and try and build up his confidence within the team. Also to give him some gametime. The boy needs it and can atleast play the role abit better among this team. Have Coutinho higher up recently. He is getting confused since he is used to dropping deeper and playing more in the middle/ left and having him up top right now isn’t helping since he is getting used to the more central role. Which is really suiting him. This then allows ox and salah to play further up more and have a little more fluidity up top. And Coutinho actually can drop back when needed. Having the three at the back should help control the game. Allow can to drop more central which allows Lovren abit wider. TAA can cover back is well where hendo can drop deep and Gomez/ matip can cover the wide gaps of any open up.
With the pace we have up top, the team can play counter attack very nice and quick football while still have a defence of 5/ 6 players.

My team for the Huddersfield match would be:

GK-Loris Karius
RB-Trent Alexander
CB-Joe Gomez
CB-Joel Matip
LB-Alberto Moreno
DM-Emre Can
DM-Jordan Henderson
RM-Oxlade Chamberlain
LM-Philippe Coutinho
FW-Roberto Firmino
FW-Mohamed Salah

Basically a 4-4-2, Mohamed Salah's movement off the ball is fantastic and his first touch and flair are great for a player with that kind of pace, meaning Firmino can be the 2nd striker which i think is his perfect role. But i doubt it, we will probably see Mignolet in the line up, 3 in midfield and if we are going to change something it will probably be the finished Sturridge upfront. (I used to love Sturridge but not i rather see Solanke getting his minutes)

25 Oct 2017 13:37:13
Play Salah up top with Firmino then as he's played there with previous clubs. Sometimes sticking all your attackers on at once isn't the answer.

Saying stupid things like we should never play Lovren and Klavan again when they make up 50% of our centre backs doesn't help anything though. Poor Klavan didn't even play against Spurs.

Maybe blame a manager who decided to tap up his main cb target and was then too arrogant to try and go for any other targets? No, blame the two cb's who play for us because it's their fault they weren't replaced.

And the guy calling for Milner? Give me a break. He's lost a yard of pace this summer and he only had half a yard to begin with. He has the turning circle of a cruise liner.

And yeah, my bad I forgot Salah at first but his goals aren't exclusively winning us games.

Maybe if we had tried something different against Spurs we wouldn't have lost 4-1. Then again none of you would have anything to moan about then.

Karius
Milner - Gomez - Matip - Moreno
Hendo - Can
Salah - Firmino - Coutinho
Solanke


We should have a reasonable amount of possession so let Hendo and Can sit deeper to direct the play, and to ensure we have protection for the CBs against the counter attack

Let the fullbacks get forward if there’s space and to provide an overlap to Salah or Coutinho if they cut inside, and to put in decent crosses from out wide

Play Solanke in the box so we have a decent aerial threat and so Huddersfield can’t just pack the defence narrow, and/ or for Firmino/ Coutinho/ Salah to play off as he’s good at hold up play.

25 Oct 2017 21:41:36
GK-Karius
RFB-Milner
RCD-Gomez
LCD-Matip
LFB-Moreno
RDM-Henderson
LDM-Can
RWF-Salah
AMC-Firmino
LWF-Coutinho
CFW-Sturridge.

Thing is, all those saying Lovren, Klavan etc shouldn't be anywhere near the team, should we just put a shirt down on the pitch? It is currently irrelevant what we should have done, we have who we have and selection needs to come from them. You can't field a team based on names we should have signed in August.
