Football’s First Defender

Chapter 628: Rejoin the army

   Klopp combines existing players and has quite his own characteristics in the arrangement of the starting list for the next Premier League game.

   The goalkeeper is still Belgium's No. 2 national goal Mignole. Although Klopp found that Mignolet was in a bad form this season and made mistakes when watching the video, but when Liverpool’s second goalkeeper was equally embarrassed, Klopp could only pick the taller among the short ones. Choosing the goal line defensive ability is still top-notch Minholet.

   At the back line, for stability reasons, Klopp still chose the pair of Yang Feng and Scotter.

   Liverpool's central defender partner in the past few seasons will still be used by Klopp this season.

However, before the start of the weekend’s league, Klopp and Skrtel, who were also inconsistent in the new season, started a personal conversation. Through some training, at least Klopp expressed his hope that Skrtel can recover quickly. Status, continue to assist Yang Feng, continue to maintain the hope of becoming the most awe-inspiring central defender in the Premier League.

   As for the choice of two full-backs, Klopp still sent Klein as a right-back and Moreno as a left-back after struggling.

   Klein proved his strength in Southampton, and his excellent assist ability, as well as the defensive end of the desperate degree, let Klopp appreciate it very much.

   As for Moreno, although he is weak in confrontation ability, his rich experience in the game is much better than the young Gomez.

  Although Klopp also saw the great potential of Gomez, he still didn't want to help him. He still wanted Gomez, who is under 20 years old, to continue to settle in the first team for a few years and accumulate some experience.

   Too early as the starting field, for a defender's genius, the destructiveness may be huge, just like Real Madrid's Pavin.

   Liverpool’s most commonly used 433 formation last season, Klopp didn’t want to change too much.

   However, Klopp has made a considerable change in the selection of midfielders.

  In Klopp's tactical philosophy, the position of midfielder is actually not willing to use that pure defensive player.

   Therefore, Lucas, a veteran who is only good at defensively, will have very little chance of being reused under Klopp.

   He prefers players who have the ability to run, who can use enthusiasm on the defensive end and make outstanding contributions on the offensive end.

   Henderson and Milner are Klopp's favorite types of players, naturally occupying two of the three midfielders.

   For another offensive midfielder, Klopp chose Lallana in the end.

   His running position and passing ability are what Klopp appreciates most.

   When watching the Liverpool video this season, Klopp thought that his predecessor did a very bad job of Lallana.

   Even though Lallana is an excellent offensive player, it is somewhat inappropriate to play as a right winger and replace Sterling.

   is still in this position similar to the midfielder, which can better display the characteristics of Lallana, and it is also the most confident position in the offensive end of Lallana.

   Regarding the choice of three forwards, Sturridge is indeed still in Klopp's plan, but he still has injuries and cannot play.

   In the previous game, Firmino's outstanding performance on the front line made Klopp also shine.

   In the Bundesliga, Firmino's position is an offensive midfielder, but in the English Premier League, which has a very different style from the Bundesliga, his performance in the midfield is actually limited in the first few games.

  Because of the more confrontational Premier League midfielder, it is obvious that a technical Brazilian player like Firmino needs to be further adapted.

   However, Firmino's play on the front line, Klopp thinks it should be worth looking forward to.

   His technical ability under his feet reminds Klopp of Suarez.

Although he lacks Suarez's toughness, he can pass the ball, hit the goal, and has excellent stopping skills. In the position of the center under the passing control system, Klopp thinks that Firmino can try. a bit.

   After confirming the starting position of Firmino, Klopp also looked for time after training and discussed with Firmino in detail.

   After all, it takes the head coach to work patiently for a player who has already achieved some reputation, change his familiar position, and change some of his playing methods.

   In case of not being able to play, the player will not only waste time, but may even be in the original position and not get enough opportunities.

   Fortunately, Klopp's personality charm and Firmino's very challenging spirit made Klopp a successful tactical change of position this time.

   Firmino became Liverpool's starting center.

   And the left wing will undoubtedly be Coutinho who ended the red card suspension.

   A player like Coutinho is also something that Klopp appreciates.

   Last season, in addition to Sterling, Coutinho was the second "thigh" of the team in Liverpool.

   And everyone can see that Coutinho has been growing throughout these seasons.

   The point that Klopp recognized Rogers most is that he defined Coutinho as the absolute core of Liverpool's midfield.

   It's just that Klopp thinks that Rogers did a poor job in the configuration of other "support" players.

Center forward Firmino, left winger Coutinho, and the last right winger position was handed over by Klopp to teenager Jordan Iby~lightnovelpub.net~ Actually, Liverpool’s outstanding performance last season was very impressive. The big reliance is that there is a Sterling on the right that can afford speed.

   After Sterling left the team, Rogers wanted to fill Sterling's gap with technical players, which obviously limited the impact of the team's counterattack.

   And Liverpool don’t have outstanding speed players?

   is not actually.

   Jordan Ibby is Klopp's eyes, and now Liverpool's lineup is the most suitable player for Sterling.

  Although in the choice of passing skills and offensive timing, the young Jordan Iby is obviously not as talented as Sterling, and has the patience to persevere in training.

   But in terms of speed and explosiveness, although he is not as good as Sterling, he is definitely a good player for wing breakthroughs, which has a great effect on Liverpool's offensive speed.

   At least in the eyes of Klopp, Ibi, a low-profile version of Sterling, is definitely more suitable for the right winger position than Lallana and Firmino.

   It is not necessary for Jordan Iby to perform as strong as Sterling in the game, but as long as he can play an impact on the side and play a role in the game, it is an important help for Liverpool's key attack on the left.

   On the bench, Klopp has an excellent high center forward like Benteke. For Liverpool in the second half, the high altitude bombing when the situation is unfavorable is also a very effective offensive supplement.

   After adjusting the positions of the personnel and talking about the players, the "Red Army" under the coaching of Klopp has become "army" again.
