Yup correct, we all know Rodgers is technically inept. Fortunately we weren't caught and stole 3points. Rodgers post match interview appears he wasn't too convinced he made the right decision to keep courtino on. (Fortunately he didn't) He needs a whack in the head sometimes.
I won't take anything away from the players. Preserverence is key.
Rodgers does foul up tactics all the time but so long as he doesn't stay mutually arrogant to change, Liverpool will be alright. If you noticed, he conceded that he has stopped imposing mignolet to pass only to defender when going up. We get harassed by teams knowing Brendan in the past didn't allow goalkeeper to launch a quick counter attack upfront or goal kick upwards as we were all too technically naive.
Launch attack from the rear, mustn't lose possession as in #Rodgers101 tactics. <<< The stoke post match interviewer reminded Rodgers.
Some mixes needed to for Liverpoolfc play and Rodgers need to be less arrogantly stubborn.
I won't ungloss the teams effort with the win. Courtino & Liverpoolfc 1, Rodgers 0
Gk launches high ball into opposition half, striker heads the ball, another striker chases down the second ball, and score. Simple and effective.
Not everytime, must tiki taka, pass, pass, pass, only can score.
It is a big loss if Benteke aerial power is not being effective used.
What is football about?
To score goal!
Whether it is aerial, long range thunderbolt, tap in, it doesn't matter as long as the team can consistently put the ball into the net.
The positive about yesterday is, fullback look pretty solid in defending with Clyne and Gomez at both flank.
Midfielder simply too crowded and narrow. Hendo, Milner, Coutino, Lallana all were playing more central, except Ibe.
