Need to fix that defence.

With Basle, that is 8 goals shipped in our last three meaningful games.

We have bought so many defenders who had or appear to have no real future at the club - Coates, Llori, Sakho, Moreno, etc.

We never got to grips with the defence in the Rodgers era. And things have not changed yet.

The very first things really effective coaches seem to do is fix goalkeeping and defensive weaknesses. Guardiola at City, Conte at Chelsea, for example.

Fair point tiger but I don't think pep has fixed city by bringing stones in! He's a long way away from being a great defender.

It's the one area where I feel Klopp has disappointed. Irrespective of individual errors, our defensive organisation remains poor.

The other point is that we don't appear to be able to break down well organised defensive teams, like Burnley yesterday.
