I think Pep could turn him into a proper footballer, like he did with Raheem.
Liverpool are hardly that though? More dangerous when the other team has the ball imo.
they overload out wide like Dortmund used to. They are lethal on the counter attack but they are able to sustain pressure too. They use the full backs very high up the pitch.
Quit living in the past mike, Liverpoolâs best weapons outside the front three are the full backs.

A will you stop
Thatâs more of an indictment of the midfield. For all their attacking prowess how many goals did the full backs score last year?
Itâs the system, TAA had 12 assists and Robertson 11 last year. The next closest defender was Pereira with 6
How many did they score between them?
One. Full backs donât overlap inside.
Those assist numbers are mind boggling.
Judging full backs on goals is extremely strange

He is excellent going forward alright. Donât watch enough of Liverpool to judge his defending as I donât like the way they play

his defending is fine. He fills the positions heâs supposed to, is quick and brave. He gets a bit too close to the CBâs when the play is on the other side of the field (either told to, or is ballwatching). Thatâs an easy fix.
Youâre the one that said Liverpoolâs full backs are not defenders and should be excused their defensive frailties.
It is not fine. Both full backs are bailed out by exceptional centre halves and goalie.
@mikehunt is a self-hating Liverpool fan. He doesnât rate any of the players or the manager
