This is all prefaced with the fact that at least 3 of the Genk attacks in the first half were off-sides but not flagged, right? Without immediately rewatching the game I also recall all of those attacks coming from a Genk defender hitting a ball over the top which by passes the midfield.
Yes, those balls over the top either caught our fullbacks too high, or created a speed contest between their forwards and Virgil/Lovren. It's also too early to overly praise or criticise that midfield setup given the injuries and how few games they've all played together.
It certainly gives Klopp plenty of options in future. He can play the conservative but solid Fabinho/Henderson/Wijnaldum trio and rely on the full backs and front 3 for penetration. Or he can play a destroyer/workhorse/creator midfield, with Fabinho in front of the defence then one of Milner/Henderson/Wijnaldum doing the hard yards, and either Keita/AoC or even Lallana driving forward. He also has the option of last night's midfield, with Robertson and Trent in more defensive roles, or asking either Keita or AoC to be the workhorse whilst the other has more freedom (or even take turns going forward during the game).
The possibilities now are mouth-watering, and in hindsight, not getting Fekir has worked out well.
There were so many positives last night - the quality of the goals, the energy, and more footballing filth from Bobby, but it was AoC's smile that did it for me. Those long lonely months in the gym and relentless hard work to get strength, fitness and form back all culminated in his performance last night and I'm delighted for him to have come this far.
