Anyway. Mendy has had both knees done so hopefully we’ll have more choice eventually at left back.
Pep picked a side from what he has and they won ffs so get behind the team.

Also Laporte broke down the flank several times and played some great balls into Sane Sterling and Aguero .The lad was absolutely fucked when he got subbed superb effort playing out of his normal position . Pep trusts him massively what a player !

The majority of their attacks come from the right side.

I also think he had a good game, even with some slips.
But there were moments when Sane did not offer support and he was left alone in front of those cunts, but overall a great game.
But we need someone there. Laporte worked last night there, the past two games vs them it did not.

What the long ball shite in the last 10 mins to VVD ? They doubled up on Laporte it didn't work but in effect it may have been one of the reasons David Silva got cancelled out ? They didn't double up when going forward on the right but in all effect it was rare they got forward . Two or three breaks through the middle were there best attacks and obviously their goal which was switched from right to left when on one rare occasion we were all over the place .

Klopp did use VVD exactly as mourinho used fallacio.

How many chances did the dippers create. Apart from his goal, how effective was Firmino. What did Salah do. Mane. Fuck all. That's what. Because of the defensive unit. Sterling, Fern, Bernie and even Sane put in a shift as well helping double up.
Imagine Pep was most happy about that performance as any other game this season, or possibly even last. The intensity for the 90 minutes was simply magnificent. We wanted it more and the players fed off the crowd and vice versa. A beautiful sight to behold
