I think the interesting thing with people guessing what we do this summer is that :
(A) you have people making predicted changes based on improving this version of Klopp’s Liverpool and what it’s missing from his peak teams. I was guilty of this a few days ago,
(B) people predicting Slot’s preferences based on how he’s played with Feyenoord and a different group of players, in different league.
The challenge with A is that we aren’t continuing with Klopp’s tactical framework.
The challenge with B is the assumption we are guessing that Slot will set up very similar and ask players in certain roles to do similar things to what’s he’s done at Feyenoord.
The 2 things above plus what happens in reality might overlap but they may also be significantly different. You then add in the Hughes/Edwards angle and it’s set up for a very interesting summer. One that I think it’ll hard to predict what happens.
I think what is missing is the very real possibility that there is an influx of feyenoord players. People don’t want to consider this but for me this is a very real possibility - at least 2 if not more
