        Mikus, Lockdown 2 season mate. It felt like we were losing games left, right, center. I remember the Newcastle defeat. We were so feeble. I don’t know how, but we found something and it was that Alisson header at the Hawthorns last minute that gave us a spring in our step and miraculously went on a run and stole a CL Place.

        We have to find something Thursday. Should we overcome this setback, we can turn this bad spell on it’s head.

          We can change our mindset and pretend we’ve been on a 6 game unbeaten run and have reduced City’s lead to just 2 points 🙂

              It was indeed lockdown over that season 20/21 – though we were actually top of the league at Christmas back then. Whilst we also had midfielders having to come into defence, I still think the root cause of our awful form thereafter was the form of the strikers which was very poor. If I remember rightly Jota was in form up until around Christmas too that season and then got injured until March. And it feels familiar again now. I think Salah is still struggling after injury. Nunez likewise though I don’t think he’s scored against any of the top teams this season. Diaz is more of a winger who can get a goal here and there. Jota has been injured. And Gakpo again has not been prolific. I think it’s mad Klopp hasn’t used the youngster Danns more. We’re desperate to finish some of these chances and he’s looked a really good finisher.

              Obviously leaking goals doesn’t help defensively. But the form of our strikers for me has always dictated the form of our team under Klopp. I think it struggles to win ugly when they’re not delivering.

                Yeah, combination Mikus of both. Leaky defence and the goals. Van Dijk in the near future will have to settle for at best the bench and we’re going to need 2 pacey and robust center halfs.

                This will be our phase 2 and phase 3 will be our attack before the rebuild is complete in my reckoning. Klopp isn’t going to hang around unfortunately to see that all through and maybe he’s being a Gentleman in giving somebody younger with a fresh mind the opportunity.

                I would love to steal right now a young Coutinho and Sterling. They were Penetrative midfielders. Zobo is lacking and so I only really see Diaz and Gakpo, but not as good as those wonderful guys Brendan Rodgers unleashed.
