MNF

Anyone can see the way Liverpool play or City for that matter (ok there's the occasional surprise - e.g. pushed inside fullbacks) what counts are the in-flight tweaks to exploit opposition weaknesses or diminish opposition strengths. I've never seen a manager like Pep who does this to such a level. What's more he gets the players to buy into this approach by fully explaining what their roles are to make these tweaks possible.

The end result is it will be very difficult for any opposition manager to produce a scheme that works against us. They may close one door but Pep will simply tweak the formation and open another. It is interesting that no pundit or journalist has reported on this aspect of our game yet so either they're thick or don't want to worry the great unwashed.
Good post.
There has been praise indeed from pundits,but as you say,it's understated.I came away from the Bournemouth game after seeing the best goal keeping distribution performance ever in nearly 40 years of watching football,at any level.
Not really picked up on by media and your point about Peps tweaking during the match quite clearly doesn't fit the script either.
 
Just watched Carragher giving his views on the game and very critical of our defence. When reviewing the Arse goal saying this is the reason we won't win the League he may be right, but I think he needs to worry about his own dippers defence just as much because when I have seen them they are very pourous as well
