Over the past few seasons, we were successful because we are speedy and we can pull the opponent's fullbacks out of position to exploit the gap between the fullback and the centreback. Salah and Mane running near the touchline on the right and left sides. If that doesn't pull the fullbacks out of position, we get TAA and Robertson to double up to create more chaos by the sides. By doing this, we created gaps in the middle between the centreback and defensive midifielders.

Now, we have no threat on the left after Mane left and Diaz is injured. Nunez and Firmino hardly exploit the gap on the left side. This allows the opponent to park the bus and concentrate more on the right side. Everyone knows Salah will try to spin and spoin to try and find gaps. Salah, VVD, Bobby, Henderson and Milner also have slowed down. We tried to outrun, outsprint a younger Leeds side. It's suicidal.

If Jurgen wants to play his usual game, we need to buy younger speedy players. We are carrying so much expensive deadwood in Ox, Keita, Curtis, Gomez.

Until we

Later someone will said Napoli is championship team.

Liverpool simply a different team when playing in European competition.

Nice distraction.

Will take any win we can get at this point, and a clean sheet is a nice bonus!

Part of me is annoyed that we won that you know. We can beat the best team in the PL and beat the in-form team in Europe but don't ask us to get a result against the likes of Forest or Leeds. Sheesh.

Must say Konate is so much better than Gomez. Nunez is great and think Ramsay will be great for us. Thiago done superbly up against some real physical players in that MF, a truly amazing player. Shout out to Tsimikas' in-swinging corners, they are lethal! Oh and an excellent cameo from Harvey Elliott. Hope Milner is ok and also must say Napoli's Kim Min Jae is one hell of a CB!

So looks like it is either Bayern, PSG, Real or Porto for us next. Can't play anyone else, i think? That first leg at Anfield will be electric! Give us one of the big teams. Underdog mentality, first leg at home, another one of them big magical Anfield european nights, fingers crossed!

Back to the present. Let's see what team turns up at the weekend.

Ha ha, don't try to be sarcastic...
Napoli not championship team unlike Rangers but they have nothing much to play for, they can lose 3-0 n still retained top spot! Why would they go all out against Pool?
The good thing is Pool won which is a morale booster!

Regardless of which team Kloop fields and whatever result, I will still be supporting our team. It's like your kid taking his final exams. Regardless of his results, he's still your kid and you won't love him any less. As long as he tries his best, that's good enough.

Of course if the kid keeps failing, we will whine in our hearts. If he still keep failing after that, we will blame the lack of intelligent genes from the wife's side...
