What really didn’t make any sense to me, from the start of this season, given how well Gakpo performed as False 9 in our run of form that almost saw us nick a top four spot & how well Nunez performed at LFWD playing in the shoulder was WHY change it

post World cup last season and fewer first team absentees.
12 games 7 wins 4 draws and a heavy defeat to City.
25 points out of a possible 36.
We have been in much better form than that all season, despite an entirely new midfield - a weaker front line and a host of injuries.
So what exactly are you struggling to with?
Our front line was better with the 3 I mentioned & we were better with the two wide forward up & No9 deeper than we are with No9 up & Diaz & Mo frequently too far away from goal
Gakpo came after the WC bringing life to a poor struggling side
7 wins… v

Hello! My man Mac versus your Donkey Thiago HELLOOOOOOO!
shows what you know.
This fella

Henderson played in every one of those games with Gakpo - mate not Thiago
Thiago only played in the 2:2 Draw v Arsenal and the wins v Leeds, Forrest and West Ham.
And anyone STILL singing the praises of Henderson while calling Thiago a donkey - frankly - should join the Tony Pulis Fan club. YOu're a funny guy 19 but your take on football is that of a clodhopper.
And yes - we all know Thiago's fitness has been a disaster - but bogus attempts to tell us black is white about his ability is just that - bogus.
From the 15 March 2021 when Klopp finally ditched the Midfielders as CB’s and Fab finally got a game at DM and STILL with no senior CB’s until his last game for us v Fulham
Thiago
Played 36 games
We took 93 points from 108
36 games
29 wins
6 draws
1 loss
Thiago
missed 12 games
We took 20 points from 36
12 games
6 wins
5 draws
1 loss
We dropped 1 more (16) point in 12 games without Thiago than we did in 36 games (15) with him
Remember 10 of these games are without Virgil or Matip or any senior CB at all. It’s quite outstanding.
I suggest these are the facts that have you triggered.
