Yawn i wish people would for once stop this bullshit, he WAS a great player for Bayern in an easier league playing for the Bundesliga's equivalent of City in the depth and quality of their squad compared to all the other sides, playing in a 4231 system
He hasn't done it here ever since he arrived, goals, assists, big chances created stats have consistently been fucking miles short of where they needed to be or were expected to be
We just had our worst season under Klopp through trying to use him as a designated playmaker, it was a fkn disaster and broke down a shit load of what made us so formidable to the point the German sausage sucking loon completely lost the thread and the plot
From day one, for all his painstakingly choreographed body shape and technique and showboating and variety of passes the useless fuck could NOT hit a quickly up and down ball, with back spin making it easier to control or hold up after hitting the turf, of the required quality in behind or as a switch to release our forwards and full backs to saved his fkn life
Trent in midfield has only happened because of the Thiago designated playmaker fantasy fuck up, it should be something he was coached to do sporadicaly when it was on to with RCM dropping a little and keeping the width to facilitate it from 18-19 onwards, not a permanent thing, but as unideal as it is, he has already absolutely eclipsed Thiago's pathetic attempts at making the play by giving the players the service they thrive on
Happy Ian? I expect you'll be along tomorrow to tell us how great a signing Diao was
Thiago can't possibly fail to do a better job at No6 than Fab is the best that can be said and that really isn't difficult
