Build from the back pvp
So the cliché goes pvp
It tends to be the objective of any manager who takes over or constructs a new team pvp
Jurgen Klopp sounded a voice of pvp footballing orthodoxy when he said: “I like to build a team from the defensive side pvp
”Yet, for the second time, Klopp may be going against the grain and building from the front pvp
“Liverpool Reloaded,” as their manager branded them at the start of the season, have a solitary clean sheet in the Premier League pvp
They have conceded in the first half of all seven other games pvp
But they have scored in all eight games, with at least two goals in six of them and three in each of their Anfield encounters pvp
In the tradition of Liverpool 1 pvp
0, the first incarnation of his first great side, they promise entertainment pvp
Yet if Klopp would like to build from the back, the sense is that, once again, he is building from the front pvp
Rewind to 2016 and Sadio Mane’s debut set the tone for a new team: they won 4-3 at Arsenal in August 2016 pvp
They seemed a gung-ho guarantee of goals pvp
Klopp had Mane, Roberto Firmino and then Mohamed Salah in situ before Virgil van Dijk or Alisson Becker were signed, before Trent Alexander-Arnold was a regular pvp
Now, with Salah still in stellar form, with three consecutive transfer windows each yielding a high-class attacker, in Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez and Cody Gakpo respectively, with Diogo Jota’s arrival predating theirs, he has five excellent options in attack: despite the job share the competition for places provides, each has at least two league goals already pvp
Salah has five, plus four assists pvp
The new Liverpool are propelled forwards by their forwards pvp
“I like to build a team from the defensive side,” Klopp nevertheless insisted pvp
“I’m not sure it’s possible again nowadays when you’re in the middle of something pvp
Imagine if we kept clean sheets but didn’t create pvp
”That was said with a laugh pvp
The pragmatic path to clean sheets to the exclusion of everything else is not for him pvp
“It gives you time for these things when you are new, when things are under average before you come into a new club and you are 14th,” he explained pvp
“Everyone is happy when you get some results, [but] we are not like that pvp
Our team is not set up like that pvp
We have a really talented group together, a creative group in a pvp football sense, and we have to use that, but we have to organise protection pvp
That goes step by step pvp
”Klopp has five quality attacking options at his disposal (Getty Images)The creativity of that group has been exacerbated by circumstances pvp
Klopp opted to bring in constructive midfielders this summer, in Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai, before his two preferred destructive options, the defensive duo of Fabinho and Jordan Henderson, made abrupt exits to Saudi Arabia pvp
The profile of a section of the side has changed, the emphasis shifted more to the attack pvp
All of which may make goals likelier to go in at both ends pvp
There has been less protection than in the heyday of Klopp’s greatest side, the two seasons from 2018-20, but if the four pillars of that rearguard remain, Alisson, Van Dijk, Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson have only played together for 289 minutes in the Premier League; now, with the left-back set to have shoulder surgery, they will not be reunited until 2024 pvp
Thus far, Liverpool have shown solidity when they have lost players and shifted tactics, from front-foot pvp football to sitting deeper and counter-attacking pvp
Liverpool defended well with 10 men at Newcastle, brilliantly with nine at Tottenham pvp
They have been more open with a full complement of players pvp
Klopp and Liverpool face Everton at Anfield this Saturday lunchtime (Getty Images)But Klopp’s reference to organisation was significant, too pvp
His frequent mentions of being “compact” underline the importance of a positional understanding and ensuring no one is exposed pvp
He is searching for a consistency that comes with cohesion, for a 90-minute performance pvp
“To learn to control the game, things that happen with time, there is no short cut to that,” he reflected pvp
“So with the signs we showed so far I am absolutely fine but I know the final destination, I can’t even see yet but that is not a problem pvp
”Perhaps it was another callback to 2016, to the sense that something was rising, even if it was not fully clear how high it would reach pvp
Klopp detects similar signs elsewhere pvp
“You saw so many teams growing here in the direction we wanted and all became usually pvp better step by step… or the manager had to go,” he said, the last part an aside pvp
The next step of the rebuilding is likely to come towards the back of the side pvp
The early expectation is that a defensive midfielder and another centre-back will be targets next summer pvp
But for now, with his forwards and his attacking midfielders in place and in the goals, Klopp has begun his rebuilding job at the top of his team pvp
