It’s looking increasingly unlikely a new centre half coming in and continued changes are not the answer, I’m still don’t understand why Phillips isn’t give a run in the side alongside Fabinho he looks a steady player with more experience than Williams, does JK not rate him?

Williams is better on the ball but cannot defend one bit. Phillips has a limited range of passing but is a proper defender. Why Klopp plays Williams over Phillips is a big mystery. Only reason I can think of is we build from the back and maybe Phillips really does not fit that profile of a CB.

Tbf Phillips does struggle to pass the ball accurately further than 5 yards which hinders our ability to keep possession when he is in the team. But I agree that Williams is not a natural defender and is very slow so its horses for courses for me and very much depends on the opposition. I would go for Philips today with the instructions to only pass to our back line or hoof it.

Both are to slow for our style so I don't see why we didn't try bring someone in and if needs must sell a fringe player to help aid that

Unless young Billy is the future and we don't want to get someone in the take his place in the future why not loan someone or go for someone older like a kilo toure type.

Totally agree with Indian Buzzer.

Oh and I read a few weeks ago that Phillips was clocked as our quickest centre back this season so he's obviously not slow.

Disappointing to see Klopp playing Hendo there, missing his drive from midfield.
