How many times have origi and sturridge started a match together, had the perfect opportunity in the last 2 matches for that as coutinho and mane where unavailable. At least we could have worked out if a plan B could work, could have firmino in the 10 role behind the 2, instead of playing players out of position.

{Ed025's Note - im sure klopp knows what hes doing haji, i think most fans would take his view over yours anyway mate.. :)

One of the best things Brendan rodges ever said as manager was "we don't need a plan b. We need to improve plan A. " Still valid now

{Ed025's Note - whats more valid jezza is that you kicked him into touch because he was an egotistical maniac mate..

Brendan lost the plot when he played players out from their best position exactly what Klopp is doing right now. There are too many big names you simply cannot drop to the bench and need to fit in somewhere in the line up!

{Ed025's Note - are you saying that klopp is the same as brendan then harry?, come on mate get a grip...

I'm not saying klopp doesn't know what he is doing but sometimes it's worth playing 2 up top, especially against Plymouth, most of our football is played in the final third and there are not enough options up front and our players end up shooting from outside the box, as a front three firmino coutinho mane are perfect as they complement each other and can get in scoring positions, but currently 2 out the three where unavailable and lallana and firmino are wasted out wide.

Harry, comparing Klopp to BR in any way, is a new low even for you. And apart from Milner or Lucas for reasons that are understandable, who is Klopp playing out of position exactly?

Lallana and Firmino!

Many on here possibly yourself HBK (May be wrong) have stated we need a CF as Firmino wasn't a striker. Now if he's played on the wing he is out of position? Players were not in their best position but there is a subtle yet important difference. Anyone who Klopp has regularly played out of position has actually improved the team for me.

For some strange reason Firmino is ineffective on the flanks and Klopp has continued to play him there. He has 1 goal in 11 games and it's a poor stat for some one who was banging goals up down and center played up top.

Lallana was on the verge of exit until he was actually played in the midfield and for another strange reason he is now deployed in front three and you are seeing the old not good enough Lallana.

Firmino was never an out and out striker prior his love to Liverpool but that has changed and you can't blame him for becoming a striker now. Can you?

You can't swap players position until you are very sure about the positive outcome something Brendan had no clue during his regime!

Thanks

I'd argue if Firmino can learn the striker role that quickly he has a good football brain and should easily be able to adjust back to playing out wide. He won't have forgotten everything else.
Our team as a whole works better with him central it seems though and I'm sure when everyone is fit we will see them playing in positions they excel most at where the team thrives. We had players out and changed things which didn't work rather than the constant tinkering of Brendan.

Harry, you are confusing yourself and no one else. Lallana and Firmino are very intelligent players whose skill set allows them to versatile and flexible hence, play in different positions in the attack or in midfield.

Does that mean they can be great at both? No. It simply means they can be good at one position and much better at another. That is not playing players out of position. Playing players out of position is what BR did stupidly, in playing Lallana as a wingback or Can at FB, WB or CB. Learn the difference.

No worries Higgins. We could keep playing him on the wings till he becomes a hazard.
