I never said we cannot change things, we are more than capable of changing things now we have a world class manager but history has shown that more often than not we have crumbled while having to play dirty and always ending up conceding.
I quoted a post from Al555 a page back where it said we need more players who are more mentally resilient than our current crop and can handle being under sustained amounts of pressure and can see out the win.
We can do it but I just think it's a bit premature to say we can play this way, when we were going through that bad patch month or two back, for me if we came through some of those with wins that would of proven we can do it consistently and have learnt to play dirty.
Look at Chelsea at Stoke Saturday they have been doing that all season and has proven they can do it week in week out, we are not their yet but we are on the right path and eventually will get their under Klopp, I am sure of it.
Chelsea are proven title winners though, so I don't think using them as a comparison is the right one. We all forget the season before it was pretty much the same team, who downed tools when Mourinho was manager. Therefore they already had the players to win the title, also the know how.
As far as we're concerned it is different as we are yet to reach that point. Klopp has made a pretty good start on it though. We are now doing fine against the bigger teams, Serbian Scouser made an excellent point in another thread, that Klopp has only once been beaten by any of the bigger teams, since his arrival in the Premiership one defeat in twenty four games. That is an incredible achievement already.
As we all know it is against some teams who use certain tactics were the biggest improvement needs to come. Once we add better quality players to the best ones we have currently, we will hopefully have the capacity to do better against teams who park the bus. It still means that we have to acquire the knowledge of challenging for titles, and that means knowing when to close down games, and to be patient at other times, when you are chasing a result. But for me its just part of the journey we need to go on with this manager. Sadly there are no guarantees in life, but I feel totally confident that he will soon have us in a much better position, to be challenging for honours.
