      @Jordon Yearwood you are so wrong. Pep buys ready made player because any club who hires him expect an instant dominance and success as he has already build his image as top top class manager from the get go, While Klopp is slowly getting there, building the image for himself. Both dormund and Liverpool have given him the time to nurture and build the squad without asking for instant dominance. You can see that pep was already burdened the year he joined city , and everyone started asking question without giving him any respite . So he purchased his desired player and won them the league next year . Whereas Klopp was not scrutinized to such micro level and was given 5 years to deliver the trophy, while also buying some of his preferred player.

      City have got a long way to go to even contemplate rivaling Liverpool. The furthest city have ever been in the Champions League is a quarter final against Liverpool, where we absolutely skinned them alive. As for Man United are one CL trophy ahead of Aston villa n Nottingham Forest. Pep done well in a strong Barcelona side n then had a load of oil cash with City, which got them caught cheating, twice, hence the huge fine and the CL ban. What Klopp done with Dortmund and Liverpool is on a different scale. Pep won the league with a team they cheated to buy

Regarding Firmino however, you just described exactly what a False 9 is, particular strikers that successfully represent the False 9 always drop deep in midfield and build up attacks with their team case-in-point Firmino, therefore their heat map will ALWAYS be around the Attacking-mid regions and for some cases even deeper.

    Don't think you really pounced on the brilliance of Klopp's right side, particularly in how Salah, Trent and Henderson all work together for what has been a deadly combination over the past 2 seasons.
    1) Henderson, who many - including me as a staunch Liverpool fan - have criticized, has been brilliant under Klopp; constantly getting better and having more of an impact on the side, especially defensively. With the arrival of Fabinho, he's been pushed to that right sided no. 8 - a position already he's been familiar with in the past under different managers, but this time, his shining light has been defending and covering Trent. His duties in that position allow Trent to focus much of his game wide right and high - providing Liverpool's width. We can expand on Henderson's role further, because he does a lot more such as: Making runs from deep - pulling markers and creating space for players in possesion & for the team to move forward, he's involved in play making - spraying the ball with his trademark diagonal pass (which his long range ability is underrated for) and etc., but it's his defensive side that deserves much credit and Trent benefits tremendously from it.
    2) Trent, as we know, has grown to be the best right back in the league - possibly the world at this stage. However. when he was first put there, the biggest criticism he faced was his defending. Though he wasn't playing under this manager, Liverpool under Rodgers was terrible defensively - especially out wide. Klopp has addressed that brilliantly, especially on the right side and Henderson is a big part of it. Over the past 2 seasons under Klopp, when Liverpool progress higher up the pitch through Trent; Henderson slots in as pseudo-right back; giving Trent license to wreck havoc from wide right. He's reminiscent of an Old-Skool 'Hug The Touchline' winger; while Henderson assumes the position of a modern-day 'Inverted Full-Back' that Pep has been known for deploying in his Barcelona, Munich and even City sides. A lot of the times when you watch Liverpool attack, it looks like Henderson is our right back at times. As a result, with this freedom to attack, it's no wonder how Trent has maintained double digits in assists, and even goals, in each of the past 2 seasons so far. Even though I will admit that Trent has grown defensively, especially in 1v1 situations, he relies a lot on Henderson in our team. Those two have a solid understanding on the pitch.
    3) Now, how does Salah benefit off of this? I think it's a misconception to call him a pure Winger anymore. Since Trent is such a potent threat from the right flank for Liverpool - Salah, for the most part, is now given the license to tuck in and become Liverpool's no. 9 (with Firmino dropping deep into the no. 10). This is where Liverpool want to have their best finisher and the numbers have shown that. Salah's contribution to the team stretches beyond goals. He's our focal point, the highest player on the pitch for majority of the game, regardless of whether he's out right or centrally. His link up play is underrated as well, combining well to bring Trent, Henderson, Firmino and others in the play - while playing with his back towards goal is another underrated quality of Salah; he's extremely strong player at holding up the ball. I remember the days before his arrival when fans were crying for a no. 9 - some still do - but Klopp, of course, executed his plans brilliantly here.
    4) To conclude, Liverpool's right flank is just deadly. Salah may start out right, but gradually as the game progresses - moves central to become Liverpool's focal point. He's allowed to do this because Trent commands the right flank - providing Liverpool with the width in Salah's absence. All this wouldn't happen without the foundation that is Henderson's discipline, tactical intelligence (to read the game defensively and mitigate any threats from opposition counter attacks) and his hard work off the ball.
    When you really put Liverpool under the microscope, they are such a FLUID team when the transition from defense to attack and vice-versa. This is just the right side I focused on. They have brilliant understandings elsewhere in their main XI (Virgil and Gomez/Matip when dealing with airballs, Mane and Robertson, Gini and Fabinho, etc.) and even when different personnel from the bench are involved (The Ox, Naby and etc.). It's brilliant to watch as a fan.

      @VituKhonje Pƙed 3 lety +2

      @@j45yip Indeed. We're just so flexible in our approach. On top of that, every player brings in their own individual qualities - with Klopp allowing them to express themselves freely - and the team adjusts from there. There a ton of unforgettable Jurgen Klopp quotes and stories since his arrival but none speak more to this than what Oxlade-Chamberlain said on LFCTV - (I'm paraphrasing here but...) When the Ox was the new kid on the block and just getting adjusted in training, Klopp would walk up to him in training and ask "Wouldn't it be a good day to start shooting the ball?" I'd be surprised if Wenger ever said that to the man at Arsenal, so every time The Ox scores a rocket (like against Genk and etc )- I think of that line and that manager. There's plenty more stuff like that but Klopp allows these boys to go out there, do what they do best, and enjoy themselves. It's no wonder the mood/confidence in the Liverpool camp is so high. Just love this manager.

    Well done! As a Liverpool fan, that's exactly what happened this season! Anyway there's no right or wrong, Liverpool depends largely on fullbacks creativity because our midfields are hard working but less creative, and our wingers Mane / Salah are better while they acts as forwards in more central roles, and with Firmino is a rare case of AM / Forward / CM, haha!and of course, Pep tactic is because they have so much talented midfields, D. SILVA, B. SILVA, And most importantly KDB! they won every things last two years, so this means their tactics worked perfectly. Believe me, Klopp and Pep will be the best manager rivals in this decade, after the players rivals of C. Ronaldo and Messi

    Summary:
    Pep's style is more based on multi-role players and organized runs with or without the ball and players' awareness and vision of his teammates, and predicting the best outcome of a decision hence working on the players themselves in training sessions to improve their reading of any situation. Dynamic style of play and freedom of players to leave position and make space by making defenders to either follow them, if not, they are free to get the pass and create chances
    Klopp's style is pre-defined roles based on players' physical workrate. Static style of play

      Solomon Anene Yes Liverpool broke the then records for a CB and GK. We have to look at the cost of the first XI, not just at a single player. For eg, City’s back 4 already cost a lot more than Liverpool’s. Not to forget, both VVD and Ali were funded by one single player sale. I read one report Liverpool’s net spend on players under Klopp’s 5 years was a paltry £100m. No right or wrong about each club’s method to success.

    Klopp has the ability to build a squad from scratch with next to nothing available for him to spend, Guardiola only goes to teams where the money is a bottomless pit, he has definitely signed brilliant players, but he has not really built players up to a world-class level, those world-class players now were always brilliant players and the next level was inevitable for them. That being said, there's no doubt he's one of the best managers out there, but I think it would be interesting to see how he deals with a squad of average players and a bare-bones transfer budget and see if he would be able to transform them, and if he never does do that in his career, I think many people would question whether he has the ability to.

      Next season will be interesting for City. Once City sort out its defence and adds a quality CB, a new Left back because of Mendy's inconsistency and injury issues, City will be as strong as ever. The defence is what has let you down this season especially early on in the season with the injury to Laporte.
      Also the injury to Leroy Sane hindered Guardiola's tactics because he lost a pacey winger and City really needed Sane's pace in most games this season. Since Sane is leaving, I think City might add another young pacey winger. Sane and Sterling really caused havoc on those wings because of their speed, so Pep might be looking to add another speedy winger to replace sane.
      With those changes, then City will be at a better position reclaiming the epl title

Everyone really interested in the game recognize that both teams have an insane fitness level, a crazy mentality and simply control the opponent by outsmarting or outrunning them 80% of the time.

    Liverpool also sometimes use midfielders running into the space between fullback and centerback, especially in deep areas when the fullbacks have time on the ball.
    Alot of Trents best work is when he is inside his own half when Pool build up. When it makes more sense for him to stay deep to help build up, Salah often stays wide and comes towards the ball, bringing the left back with him. In that moment Oxlade or Henderson can make midfield runs from deep, diagonally into the space and Trent hits them directly.
    Its actually one of the best ways to deal with Pool in my view. Force the play out to Gomez instead of Van Dijk, Gomez has shorter passing range and is far more likely to play on Trent in a deeper position. Then be ready to press hard on Trent while also keeping your left back narrow, close to the centerback to pick up the midfield runner. Let Salah drop deep, he is far less dangerous at the half way like and you still have 2 lines of 4 in front of him.
    Porto did this very well if i remember correctly.

      The injury to Sane and Laporte affected City. First, lets start with Sane, by losing him to injury, City lost pace on the wingsa and only had sterling that could offer pace on the wing. Playing Mahrez on the wing is different to playing sane. Mahrez works very well in tight space because his highly gifted dribbling ability but Sane is fast and can as well dribble but he works well with space. Also since Mahrez likes to cut inside to take a shot with his left foot, it closes the half-space for de bryune to run into and cause havoc like he did so well last season. So when Mahrez cuts inside, De bryune is forced wide where he is less lethal.
      Laporte's injury also affected City's defence. City should have bought a quality CB to replace Kompany in the summer then Laporte's injury happened.
      I'm sure City are working on fixing these issues this summer but I also think since Sane is leaving, they need to also add a quality winger that is pacey.

    With Alaba and Lahm he has the best RB and best LB at that time. Both were very intelligent to play DM (inverted Fullback).

Pep only requires his CBs to have good defensive skills and know what to do with the ball because their only on-ball compulsory objective is helping the midfielders keep possesion and that's all. Klopp wants his CBs to be very good defensively, but also very good with the ball. They have to contribute to the team a lot more than Pep's pair with more piercing passes, killer passes. In City, Pep's mildfielders carry this task.

      True, Pep uses possession as a means to attack and defend simultaneously. His system is actually quite complex as it involves positional play and positional intelligence from all his players including the keeper who is responsible for City build-up play from the back.

    I see a lot of commentd saying klopp is doing a style thay guardiola used with barca in the past. This made me think why he changed it and why klopp still uses it with effect. Guardiola probably figured he was weak againsy counter attacks and developed a system where his inverted fullbacks stop tje counter attack. I had read that somewhere. Klopp having great wingbacks with power and creativity he prob did nit want to waste this. Still weak against counter attacks I assume his development against counter attacks is havinf the two nr 8 spejnd much time closing space and defending the gaps left behind by the fullbacks. The midfield german motor really. Interesting.

    It is almost like water and fire, one very fluid flowing football from back to front very in control and the other aggressive energetic 100 mph flying full backs and forwards. You can appreciate City's swagger but Liverpool are far more exciting to watch in my opinion.

    High quality analysis. Both systems need high quality players to work though, especially Guardiola's or Barcelona's
    The top tactics always change. Ranieri shook Premier League once with his counter-attacking 4-4-1-1 and very cheap players, then Conte came with the unusual 3-4-2-1

    Unfortunately this season (19/20) Pep were forced to abandoned his attacking philosophy due to injuries to Sane, their only natural left winger.. Sterling has been playing on the left and Mahrez/Silva on the right, which both wingers become inverted wingers.. that style has caused congestion in the half-space as they ran into the area where KDB / Silva usually run into..

    • @thuo1000
      @thuo1000 Pƙed 3 lety

      Exactly brother. Your comment is one of the few that really explain what has been happening to City this season. The injury to Sane and Laporte clearly disrupted their season. By having Mahrez play on the right wing all time or Bernardo, it takes away some of their attacking threat by slowing down their game. Also like you said when Mahrez cuts inside, it leaves no half space for de bryune to run into and cause havoc with low crosses, and de bryune is forced wide when mahrez cuts in. This means that City have only one wing where their advanced midfielder can run into half-space when sterling stays wide.
      Then the Laporte injury also messed city up. City should have bought a quality CB in the summer to replace kompany. When Sane leaves, then City might also need to bring in another quality young winger.
      I'm sure City are already sorting these issues now.

    One of city's issues this season aside from their obvious defensive woes has been turning that midfield dominance into goals.
    They often dominate the ball and still lose. I think sané's value to city is underestimated and losing him will cause problems.

      @@kwadwoasamoah103 if you look at their high risk scoring opportunities they've converted far fewer this year. And let's be honest, without agĂŒero it's scary to think about. That's ignoring the fact that they've basically got the most stacked team and bench in the league and will likely face punishment for breaching FFP regulations.
      City has underperformed. Their total goals are skewed by blow outs vs Newcastle.
