mikuz:Our pattern of play does not allow for holding on to the ball for long. We are a high pressing team, once you get the ball, you move quick by identifying a pass. You are asking which mistakes, against Man City in 2020/21 season, he held on to the ball too much and was dispossessed. City ended up scoring from that. He did same thing very often that season which lost us points. The guy is a good player but dude needs to actually play the tactics. He is deployed as an 8 but tries to play as a number 10 by getting into tight corners and trying to dribble. The problem is we play a high line and if we get dispossessed, voila a counter attack against us. 1 Like |

Minemrys: You are spot on my bro. We have the quickest transition from defence to attack in the EPL but it's not always attack attack attack, there are times when you need to sit back and suck up pressure that's where he comes in and he's been doing that excellently well except for the few cases you pointed out which is pardonable seeing that no player is immune to mistakes. He's already playing the tactics - ball retainer. He's role's is limited. He's not been given the freedom to go beyond that like Countinho. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by mikuz(m): 11:35am On Jul 24, 2022 |
CAPdan21: I could have still fancied another natural DM in that midfield. Hendo plays optimally when he's deployed as a CM. Nothing beats playing in your natural position. Fabinho as DM and Hendo as CM is always a joy to watch, he hardly puts a foot wrong bro. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 4:44pm On Jul 24, 2022 |
mikuz:It was a mistake selling Neco Williams. I still don't know why Trent isn't playing DM yet. Cause this season would have been a perfect season to do that. I don't know if Gomez or Matip can play there. Would be interesting lol. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by EerinLakatabu(m): 6:26pm On Jul 24, 2022 |
Trent play DM He’d get eaten alive as a DM. I think Hendo can deputize for Fabinho easily. In fact there are matches where I think playing Hendo as the deepest of the midfielders is better for the team. He’s quicker in transitions even though his penchant for sideway passes could be annoying. Minemrys: |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by AnfieldFan: 7:09pm On Jul 24, 2022 |
Minemrys: Trent as DM Neco wanted to leave.... |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by mikuz(m): 9:19pm On Jul 24, 2022 |
Minemrys: Trent playing defensive midfield is suicide mission. The only two persons who can hold that spot down for us are Fabinho and Henderson. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 10:34pm On Jul 24, 2022 |
mikuz:I hope you know RB isn't his natural position. Or that Fabinho is a natural Right Back. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by mikuz(m): 10:48pm On Jul 24, 2022 |
Minemrys: Does it matter, provided that they are doing there jobs excellently well in their current positions, why change the status quo? |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 10:14am On Jul 25, 2022 |
mikuz:Am saying some tweaks can be made to see how improvements can be made to surprise opponents. Under Guardiola, Trent will be playing 2 positions now. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by uniqueuser(m): 11:46am On Jul 25, 2022 |
Minemrys:LOL Trent as a DM? then Fabinho as number 9 ba... Trent should stick to his RB, we also have Gomez, Milner and the new boy Ramsey as backup... selling Neco wasn't a mistake, we can't guarantee him game time. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by mikuz(m): 12:51pm On Jul 25, 2022 |
Minemrys: Tweaks should be made to improve the team's overall performance and not to diminish it. Trent is the best player in Liverpool for RB position while Fab and Hendo are the best people for DM. There is no need for us to tweak anything as far as I'm concerned bros. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 7:52pm On Jul 25, 2022 |
uniqueuser:How are you guys all sure that Trent can't play DM? Robertson can also play DM if I am to believe but not sure. The reason why I am saying this is, I smell midfield injuries this season, and it's about time Klopp starts looking at Midfield options. New boy Ramsay? Baba, no just reason am. Milner can't play there against some teams. Hope you watched the Man City game at Anfield where he was almost red carded? Our only serious RB cover is Joe Gomez. And he plays differently to Trent. Ramsay on the other hand is not premier league material yet. Unless we want to keep Sepp van den Berg. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by mikuz(m): 9:12pm On Jul 25, 2022 |
Minemrys: Trent has to be the worst person in Liverpool to ever play DM. His defensive lapses will ensure that we ship in 5 goals every match. It's like you are under estimating the sensitivity of that position. Milner will do a better job than Trent will ever do in that position. Why are so bent on Trent playing there? You don't want us to compete this season or what? Please leave it for the veterans. Disembark from this your postulations bros 1 Like |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 12:07am On Jul 26, 2022 |
mikuz:How come those lapses haven't prevented us shipping goals while he plays RB? Hope you know DM is different from CB and there are many ways to play the role that isn't strictly about defending. He can play it differently like the Kante kind or as a deep lying playmaker. Playing as a CDM or DM is all about reading the game and having an eye for passes that transition defense to attack. It's just one full preseason that he will be given to test himself in the role. And the fact he has played as a Midfielder or is a natural Midfielder gives him an edge. His lapses at RB are because he of the role he plays at RB where a lot of times he overlaps. As a DM, he doesn't need to overlap that often. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by mikuz(m): 3:52am On Jul 26, 2022 |
Minemrys: Because he has more defensively gifted people to cover for him whenever he overlaps. If you play him as a DM he would be useless both defensively and offensively. They will overrun our midfield. Why are you so bent on him playing there? Just like asking Salah to play striker position when he ll score more goals for the team operating from the right. Trent have been phenomenal playing RB for us these past years. See the way he's breaking assist records every season. He's a great asset offensively but defensively he's just average. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by uniqueuser(m): 12:09pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
Minemrys: I strongly believe we will be seeing more of 4-2-3-1 as against 4-3-3. Trent doesn't has that physicality to play DM. About injuries...fingers crossed, with the amount of matches we played last season ehn...sha options dey |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 1:25pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
uniqueuser:Between Fabinho and Trent who has more weight? Or pace. You can't judge him based on how he plays as a RB for how he will play as a DM. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by CAPdan21(m): 5:56pm On Jul 27, 2022 |
Minemrys:Why should we weaken one of the strongest part of our team just to do trial and error in a position we are adequately covered??...Leave my boy for him position abeg |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by kendrick93(m): 10:29am On Jul 28, 2022 |
AnfieldFan:I also think he should have been played in a more attacking role.. Right now he's basically doing a Gini role.. When he was coming up at the academy he used to player either behind a striker or on the wings.. Quite surprised Klopp trusts Elliot in attacking midfield role but can't do same for Curtis.. IMO Curtis is the better player than Elliot and would perform better in a more attacking midfield role |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by Minemrys: 5:28pm On Jul 28, 2022 |
kendrick93:Eliot also plays as an 8. Klopp does not use a 10. Or attacking midfielder. The AM is the false 9. But since we have a number 9 now then yes, but sadly that role goes to Carvalho now. |
Re: Liverpool FC Fan Zone: Champions of England by kendrick93(m): 7:59pm On Jul 28, 2022 |
Minemrys:Yeah but Elliot doesn't have much defensive responsibilities unlike Jones who's game is more restricted when he plays in that left side of midfield... |

Goooalllll!! |

See Trent they say we should deploy to DM. He's about to continue from where he stopped last season. |

kendrick93: My bad, son of man don't do pre season |
