HOW throw-ins made Liverpool great again

- What makes Liverpool such a good team? Brilliant individuals? Team spirit? Great fans and a great coach? Sure! But there’s something else: Throw-ins. In mid 2018, Liverpool still hadn’t won a trophy in three years under Jürgen Klopp. Their stats were generally impressive, but they were the third-worst team in the league at throw-ins. Then a little-known coach called Thomas Gronnemark arrived. So how did he use the most neglected set-piece in football to help Liverpool win last season's Champions League and maybe the Premier League in 2020?
Could Gronnemark help your team? Tell us in the comments...

I remember when everyone was laughing at klopp for hiring a throw in specialist.
“Incomplete coach” they said, “stupid last ditch decision” they said.
Guilty. Words now swallowed, washed down with champagne.
@@dylanjohnstone5119 you said that aswell, now playing like you didnt, sure m8
I did too 😅
I remember when pundits and writers where making fun of Liverpool hiring a specialist free-throw coach. It's that kind of attitude that slows progress.
Old school English football heads have generally been reactionary.
The brits can be a bit hesitant to changes...

@@511dydy What on earth does Britishness have to do with it? Every country has traditionalists. Most countries more so than Britain
Everyone laughs till they realise it works then they imitate
probably since the day everyone was laughing at the guy who carved a stone and made a pointy spearhead and said ''thats how we are gonna kill animals now''
*in football
I’m a Liverpool fan but we didn’t win the league because of throw ins
@@anthonycroucher9183 shut up bandwagon
@ Zoom what do u mean bandwagon we didn’t 😂 and if u believe we won the league because of throw ins ur dilousional
I honestly forget that throw-ins are a thing in football, but come to think of it, with the right strategy it can really make an impact.
Yes if a team can settle in and make a quick attacking position while in athrowing position it may affect the game chances of scoring will be high
Euro 2016: Iceland 2-1 England
throw-ins also played a key part in making iceland team great
you would not forget the throw in if you are stoke city fans🤣
yeah i mean Rory Delap
SNói Tómasson 🙄🙄🙄
*The year is 2025*
Thomas Gronnemark just surpassed Jeff Bezos to become the world's richest man. He made his fortune as a throw-in coach and built his throw-in empire through consultancy all over the world
Ian Clinton now you must pass insane throw-in exams to even have a chance of joining any club whatsoever
That actually sound like a fantastic future :-)
Thomas Gronnemark - The Throw-in Coach oh jesus youre the real one! Hello!
@@ThomasThrowin Holy Shit! I know I'm supposed to wash my hands but I'm not going to because those legendary hands of yours replied to my comment!!! 😵😵😵
Just amazing! Well done Thomas👍🏻👍🏻Super
When theres no football to watch "you start to watch throwing in videos
yeah, I've been throwing myself in to these videos lately
A key point about throw-ins that was missed here is HOW OFFSIDE RULES DONT APPLY ON THROW INS. It can really be exploited with good movement and tactics.
A fullback with a long throw in is such a weapon it’s like a free corner chuck ur centre backs up and challenge for the ball
You ever heard about rory delap?
Ankle Socks not until I searched him up his throw ins are weapons they better than most peoples corners and it’s funny how the refs had to organise the field just for a throw in I don’t get why full backs don’t work on throw ins like they do with corners it’s such a weapon and there are offsides so if u had an opposition goalie who was only 6 foot who is getting challenged by matip Fabinho and Van dijk at the same time it causes huge problems
even Roberto Carlos was a very good thrower at times. I remember his clean throws , he was good too.
As an Arsenal fan it did make me laugh seeing the panic our players had when playing against Stokes long throws. Delaps throw was so good because of the flat trajectory and pace he could put on it. We would rather put it out for a corner.
@@mrtoad1408 not only Arsenal.. almost every team are afraid of Delap's throw in hahaha.. i remember some team set they subs to warm up behind Delap so he didn't have enough space to run 😂
I remember the time Trent Alexander-Arnold used to take a single throw-in in a very long time to find his teammates.
Everytime I saw TAA takes the throw-in, I told to myself "it's not gonna be quick"
He only takes quick corner.
It’s almost like he pushes the ref to warn him
It’s so frustrating. It’s like he’s a little kid that doesn’t understand
How much time do they get?
@@nofurtherwest3474 referee here: no set time, it's left to the appreciation of the ref.
Who else remembers Rory De Lap at stoke city? Guys hand’s a cannon!
Pulis‘s Stoke were terrifying anytime Delap was allowed to use his hands.
The Pulis Stoke was so much entertaining to watch. Rory Delap throw-ins to Peter Crouch, fake free kicks and corners. You see different stuff almost every week.
He throw like a cross
Yes when Stoke got a throw in it was as good as a corner when they had Delap. Even better because how many bad corners do you see, but Delaps throws always caused problems for every team. Created loads of goals for Stoke and Ireland with them bullet throw in's
Rory was a GOD!
Imagine John Arne Riise is still playing now and under the guidance of throw in coach Thomas Gronnemark, the result would be devastating.
We can only dream.
😀😀😀
FIFA trialled kick-ins rather than throw-ins in the English semi pro leagues over a decade ago. Never caught on but imagine Riise doing kick-ins...
I love how when breaking the world record he also included a cart wheel
That was a VERY BIG challenge :-)
I miss football so damn much, i dont even have words to explain how i feel empty, souless, confused, lost not to mention our perfect season 25 points + and at the end COVID 19 ☹️☹️☹️
Perfect season ???
Hahahahaha ...
Dude....this premiere league Season got cancelled..check latest news
Suraj Sharma rlly?
Suraj Sharma shut up
The title should be given to us.
Anybody remembers Lilian Thuram? I was shocked when he said in an interview about 20 years ago that "for me, throw-ins are the most tricky situations. I never really know how to play these."!!!
I miss players like Rory Delap. The 08/09 season with Stoke‘s throw-ins causing absolute havoc was so mental to watch.
Klopp is incredible...he thinks so far out of the box that the box has now disappeared and become a collection of shiny trophies :)
Somewhere watching this Steve Nicol would be losing his mind.
and Andy Gray.
he was the one smirking and joking "and then what? They're going to appoint a kick-off specialist?"
It's crazy how our club and team management runs in a so different way .Kinda unique in every aspects right from the transfers to coaches and tactics and all those stuff.Its like we don't imitate like others.Cool
Small marginal improvements in each and every aspect leads to a cumulative better result ! Klopp is certainly a genius !
Corners? I'm sure Liverpool are covered in that area. 😅
a well trained fullback for that, u know who im talkin about
You're a great channel! You deserve much more subscribers and views. Keep it up! Stay safe man!
One of my favorite channels ...great video
Mind blown..never realized the important of throw in..this channel is the best..
This kinda reminds me of the movie Moneyball, when the manager brought in an analytics professional to find players according to numbers, but was laughed at by the other staff, but in the end proved to work out so well.
Jurgen has brought a lot of specialist that it is indeed kinda likes moneyball. Jurgen specialist team likes data science. So yeah, the philosophy of moneyball that FSG trying to recreate only works after Klopp arrived because he brought in a lot of specialist. It didnt work before because LFC lacks of data.
Very enlightening!
Thanx.
In the Football Manager game throw-ins are awful and I thought it was unrealistic. But this video taught me that real players suck at throwing. 👍🏼
I was always amazed by how bad professional players are at throw-ins. Like half of those we see in TV would be called a foul in amateur football.
man city are ordering a throw-in coach as we speak
Both of our fullbacks are really great at throw ins. We don't need to hire anyone else.
And we don't copy what Liverpool do.
@@sujankc7442 Hah tell the same thing when Man C actually hire a throw in specialist lol
@@qertwert4139 then keep on waiting for ages !! 🤷♂️
Our throw-ins are already better , Walker is better than both Liverpool's fullbacks even without throw-in coach !!
@@sujankc7442 pffffft so delusional read what u put and consider the full backs u just put down I would have disabled trent than walker and cancelo at once
They'll probably get an entire firm for that
Love the background music at the beginning!!
I have a friend who is the rory delap out of my mates, he plays center back but takes all our throw ins, quite hilarious tbh
It is refreshing to see the game from a different perspective: An ironic sundry element of the game which is discarded can produce a better effect, like a serve in tennis, giving one the advantage, realizing the ball is now in one's hands. He can create something from a stagnant situation from the stockpile of strategy and strength in his arms.
liverpool uses data science for tactics thats why they recruited throw in coach
thats why they are where they are, their business aspect and their footballing aspect goes hand in hand. the best businesses conduct data analysis to try improve their margins. Liverpools business and football mind go together for what their achieving.
Some of their data scientists in their team are PhD holders from prestigious universities in subjects like physics lmao. What a team
@@Safwan.Hossain still can't win league
@@tonyjoseph5197 say it again
@@Itsmegenn you tell him again mate, YOU TELL HIM AGAIN. YNWA
A good throw-in is an extra arm from all points of the field because the opposing team can't actively pursue the thrower. Absolute brilliant hiring from Klopp.
I have been playing soccer since before slice bread and I have never felt so childlike when learning something about soccer... This video has taught me so much I'm thrilled and in shock at the same time. Seriously thank you for this video, as a coach, I think this is can really make a difference on the pitch when done correctly!
You are welcome Anthony
Best video !!!! Keep it up !!!!👍👍🏻
Thank you Thomas , Thank you DW for another AMAZING video 😁
You are Welcome 🤜🤛👍🔴🌞
Thomas Gronnemark - The Throw-in Coach oh my god the REAL Thomas replied to me?? 😃😃😃
Great content !
Your contents are always superb.
Thanks! Spread the word.
Fun video, good job.
wow I didnt know there was a job as that...Throw-in specialist...just wow...awesome vids man
thanks! It is good to think differently sometimes...as Klopp clearly did.
I used to love John Arne Riise's thrown in's. It was almost like the guy could throw it as good as his long distance shots on goal
Watched to see if they mentioned Rory Delap. That man could throw an absolute cannon.
Infact it’s a good one to watch and study. I get that vibe now
This is the good thing about modern English football, because they have so much money they are now hiring experts in every field to improve their teams and English players. England has got rid of the old generation of British coaches who were not intellectual and hated new ideas like Harry Redknapp and Sam Allydyce. Now British educated intellectual people are now moving into football due to money in the game and this is improving the tactics and advancements in English football. Just look at the 2018 World Cup. England was the most effective team during corners and the reason why the FA went to the NBA and NFL teams for research on how to move when the ball is dead. It was the first time in 70 years England was more tactically advanced than the other teams because the money had brought a shift from the old boys network that lead to uneducated former players where getting all the coaching jobs as a retirement plan and protectionism that went with that to where you have just to justify your role because we have experts from a round the world to take your job.
It's a shame this never translates to the English national team
@@sreddi83 World Cup Semi-final, Nations League Semi-final, Highest scorers in Euros qualifying, U20 and U17 World Champions and U19 European champions all in the same year, one of the youngest national teams in the world and still ranked top 3. I say this translate very well. If England had Klopp as coach they would be would be favourite to win the Euros and World Cup because England now has more high quality young players than any other tam inthe world now.
@@Delboy0 The World Cup SF was cause we didn't play anyone worth beating. NL SF do the players even care. U17,19,20 are all gr8 achievements but how much of that will translate to senior level 3 players maybe?
World Rankings also not really a proper bar, we're just flat-track bullies essentially. England are the best at beating weak teams definitely.
I agree with the Klopp statement. Not sure about favourite but we'd definitely at least challenge
@Subhadip Das 5 assists more than anyone in the Liverpool team.
@Subhadip Das Liverpools midfield is not shit they are utilitarian. They aren't there to score goals or even provide assists really. Its to cover ground during the press, win the ball back and sometimes play quickly over the top. They all do this very effectively.
Nice video.
Dw is such a great program...I love germans
8:34 that had to hurt. By reflex, I reached for my face.
Man what a job title this is,
Im a throwing coach for Liverpool.
Its about control and perfection
Did I just see Lord Lingardinho score a goal?
Love to see..Liverpool are ahead of time
8:05 ohhh lingardinhooooo
The best emerging sports channel?
Love that Thomas a man from my country can make it to Liverpool my fav club lol
following in the footsteps of Jan Molby right?
After watching this, I'm going to practice my throw ins now.
I didn't know throw-in skills were so crucial. Klopp seriously has a vision I only saw in the old great managers
stoke city with rory delap where ahead of there time
Never knew that throw ins can affect a game chances of winning. How stupid I am. Klopp showed that throw ins is an important factor in gaining advantage. Kudos to Klopp and LFC trainers
That doesn't make you stupid, most people weren't paying attention to throw ins before Klopp!
Now I'd actually learn proper throw ins just for the sake of being a slight bit better than me currently,while also working on my usual game
But yeah being a smart lad in these things deffo leaves an impact and the scouts might consider ya yk
Imagine if this guy coached Delap. From Legend to God.
Charlie oh god I remember that guy hahahaha the good old days
he would be playing for Liverpool...
My high school team had a kid who could throw the ball to the other side of the 18 yard box so we basically had a corner every time the ball went out of play in their half and we scored at least 5 or 6 goals that way and ended up making it to the state semi final
Throw-ins are such a useful weapon. If done well, it almost feels like cheating. I wonder if teams started training them up and they got that good would they change to a kick in or something like that
8:35 lowkey made me flinch 😂
This reminds me of Rory Delap.
Spoke too soon. I hadn't watched the whole video.
that's why it's always good to watch the whole video before mentioning Rory Delap!
What’s ur job
Him:oh I’m a throw in coach
Lame
ists attention to the little details that make the big differences
4:55 I died 😂😂😂😂
Give this man a medal.
Slightly off topic, but does anyone know the name of the song playing starting from 0:53??
Second only to mytllland 😂 that really got me... awesome.
Big respect for Thomas Grønnemark.
Who had known that throw ins were so decisive?
Thanks DW😃
Never underestimate the skills of throw ins, it does help when scoring goals
Klopp is constantly gaining competitive advantages over his competitors! 👌
We are champion now
We are LIVERPOOL, this means more❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I learned something new
0:52 That Gui Boratto entrance tho
Forget the name of the player, but the first time I saw a somersault throw in was by a Newcastle U16 player in the Milk Cup in, Northern Ireland, 1987-88.. I think... He did it for the senior team....
i hate that noone ever moves or indicates anything at throw ins. one of the most uncomfortable situations in amateur football. and then everyone is like 'aaaah', as if they had done it better
Dave Challinor also had a mighty throw in. People would mark him to try to put him off
2:55 wow, I never realised there's a lot of throw in a single match
As a former volleyball player, all this always sounded so obvious...
Needless to say I served several assists during my (short) amateur football carreer from the throw-ins. And people were looking at me as if I was an alien, while a football throw-in is one of the simplest warm-up exercises for normal volleyball players
9:28 Yes Sådan!!!
boy i used to use it as a weapon for sure on fifa 12 to 15 i would just send that thing with boateng and get good shots lol
Stevie nicol eat your heart out
8:15 Might as well in Top Flight history
imagine Rory Delap in Liverpool shirt would be great.
Stoke were more dangerous when the ball was off the pitch and Delap could use his hands that‘s for sure! But not sure about him on the pitch for Liverpool.
Whats the song playing in 2:55 ?
I thought you'd mention Ian Hutchinson of Chelsea.
Does the video title change?
United used to do that before in the Gary Neville days.
Sure how much effort Liverpool has put in
Is that El-P’s “Fuck the Law” playing at the background 5:24?
Fools laughed when we hired a throw-in coach. Who's laughing now?
Next we'll talk about corners...
😉
CORNER TAKEN QUICKLY...
most people dont understand this importance of a throw in... didnt get a direct assist everytime playing on the field but i would directly be involved in a goal or key chance from something pretty easy such as a throw in.
good point, it should count as an assist right?
I miss weekend football/soccer sooo much.
Throw-ins are the least utilized aspect of football and I don't know why all managers don't stress it. I guess players since childhood are used to the ball going out of bounds as temporary respite time. However more than any moment of the game, the advantage to restart the game with throw-in on your own terms should be rehearsed as much as taking penalties or free kicks. It's the greatest waste of chance in the game and it offers more to winning than corners and free kicks in my opinion. The opportunity to throw in the ball provides the team a time to out-think, and outsmart your opponent by simply being alert with your teammates. It's the only moment in the game when a player CANNOT be offside !! If i were a manager, my first edict would be to tell my team that whomever is closest to the ball when it goes out, must throw it forward and do it quickly ( retrieve the ball if you can and throw it in less than 5 seconds). Conversely, any player closest to the opponent's goal must sprint away from his defender towards the goal the moment his teammate gets hold of the ball from the ball-boy. More goals should be scored from throw-ins and as fan, it baffles me that there aren't that many.
I agree with almost everything but you also can't be offside when in your own half.
02:31 Bangkit! 😌😌
Every single detail matters when you wanna be at the top
