HOW TO MOVE ON...

...WITHOUT MANE!

Simply put 4:3:3 without Mane just doesn't work, as proven in January. There's a thin line between Klopp’s Genius and occasional Madness as we saw yesterday but he has to stop being stubborn, and move to a 4:4:2 Diamond:

---------------MIGNOLET---------------
CLYNE -LOVREN - MATIP - MILNER
--------------- LUCAS -----------------
---------CAN -------- WIJNALDUM------
-------------- COUTINHO --------------
---------FIRMINO------ORIGI-------

If you look at our 1st goal yesterday it actually came from a direct attack with Origi & Firmino in centre forward (roaming) positions and Coutinho ghosting in and supporting. Our upcoming fixtures are all against teams who are pretty direct themselves, so sacrificing some possession for much more penetration is the surely the way forward short-term.
