They didn't want the PL anyway so they can concentrate on the CL which gives them a chance to be world champions, again.

They still are according to the cult

This is an incredibly poor take. What's fucked up their system is moving Henderson and Fabinho from midfield to defence.

They aren't good CB's, and losing them from midfield has exposed the fullbacks, who used to get help from the two of them, and killed their counterpress.

it’s not an incredibly poor take as you put it, even if I agree with your point on the cb move.

their success was built on almost all of their passing being done by full backs and cb’s switching long balls. Bringing Thiago in fundamentally changes this. So both points are correct.

this has been said a few times, i dont watch them but was lead to believe liverpool were a long ball team and didnt need a midfield, unless its lack defensive play.

They knock it long and their midfield pick up the second balls. Hendeson, wijnaldum and fabinho are mostly hustlers but thiago is too slow and often fouls. Plus he doesnt want to knock it long all the time. It kills their game.

they are missing the hustle of henderson and are playing thiago there who cant do any of that. Ergo hes messed up their system.
