Just checked this out of interest.
Feyenoord average 62% possession and complete 85% of their passes.
Liverpool average 62% possession and complete 86% of their passes.
You're in for a surprise because the only similarity is a close enough formation and heavy pressing without the ball. On the ball, unless won high up the pitch which they're good at, it's actually not get the ball 'forward and fast'. There is a an obsession with control and a methodical approach to opening up the space that the wingers at the top of the pitch can exploit. It's not quite City level but it certainly differs from how we play now.
If you want ambitious players who are going to take you to the next level then you need to sell the project. You need a manager who can convince the player of two things the project and that the manager will improve the player. That is why we were able to sign Van Dijk and also why we have been able to keep hold of our best players.
We have also been able to recruit outstanding young players because they know they will get a chance under Klopp.
If you look back to how we became a big club then it was the ability of Shanks to sell the club to the likes of St John when we were a second division club. That is a manager telling a player the club is going places and that he will make them a better player. How does that work when you have a Sporting Director in charge of transfers?
The club fucked up here playing it down. Should’ve called blue murder and demanded all at PMGOL step down.
This summed it up for me.
We allowed an employee to be assaulted by an official.
So whats your point here?
I said the Club should be the attraction, you seem endorse an individual should (not could) be an attraction but the example you gave failed.
fml, I know how Yorky feels now.
I have the utmost disdain for opinions like this who minimise or dilute the enigmatic pulling power of Liverpool Football Club.
Shall we buy Bowen?
