As good as he was vs. Chelsea, he was as poor vs. Bournemouth.He was shocking yesterday. Not alone in that but he was poor from the first minute. His pass completion stats must be appalling.
It was close, but I can't disagree.As good as he was vs. Chelsea, he was as poor vs. Bournemouth.
Shocking display, Fred was much better and he’s taking loads of stick.
Andreas was our worst player though, absolutely pants.
Good players cover long distances, average players cover long distances too.
So distance covered has nothing to do with good or average players?
This is a succinct explanation of our biggest problem this season.There is no point in winning the ball back and getting it to Andreas/Mata/lingard.
Will almost certainly be Pereira in central midfield.He wasn't good today, too many misplaced passes especially the easy ones. Hopefully he isn't injured, we will have to rely on Garner to start vs Brighton.
Not good option either, hopefully he will step up.Will almost certainly be Pereira in central midfield.
He's the type of player we would due to the grit and determination he offers the midfield.He wasn't good today, too many misplaced passes especially the easy ones. Hopefully he isn't injured, we will have to rely on Garner to start vs Brighton.
I thought he was decent tonight. Always looking to move it forward. Passing was loose at points but considering how often he was on the ball it was good enoughHe wasn't good today, too many misplaced passes especially the easy ones. Hopefully he isn't injured, we will have to rely on Garner to start vs Brighton.
I disagree. Do Liverpool have world class midfielders playing for them? They won the CL last year, and have been a dominant force for two years now.He's been overrated in recent weeks due to being better than Fred and Perreira basically. Not trying to bash him - he is what is he is. A hardworking player who gives his all for us, which in our current state is important. If we want United back to where we were, we need a midfield that can take on the best in Europe. He obviously won't be that level.
How do people rate his passing compared to say, a Kante or Ndidi? Theres not many high quality midfielders I can think of who are poor/mediocre passers. It's my one worry with Mctominay.Needs to just keep practicing his passing, it’s so poor for someone who is playing simple passes most of the time.
Him and Fred are lacking in quality but at least they are mobile and work hard. It’s not good enough but it’s something and alternative is Matic.
This is true, but it's not like Klopp didn't want to improve the midfield. That's why he got Fabinho, Keita, and almost got Fekir (failed medical).I disagree. Do Liverpool have world class midfielders playing for them? They won the CL last year, and have been a dominant force for two years now.
What you need is a functional midfield. When we don’t have a playmaker or a creative midfielder, of course he will look a bit bad because he is pretty much the whole midfield. Bring in some competent midfielders around him and he’ll look a whole another level.
With Pogba potentially leaving and our other midfielders being shite, he is the only starter I can think for next season. And if he continues to improve, I see no reason why he can’t be a starter in a top team.
Tbf to Kante he is very good passer. Completely on different level compared to Ndidi and McTominay.How do people rate his passing compared to say, a Kante or Ndidi? Theres not many high quality midfielders I can think of who are poor/mediocre passers. It's my one worry with Mctominay.
Fabinho is pretty much considered world class now and Henderson and Wijnaldum contributed a lot to Liverpool's UCL run last year. Won't be a popular opinon on here but Henderson is a bit underrated to be honest.I disagree. Do Liverpool have world class midfielders playing for them?

I find it hard to believe you can criticize him for this. That's exactly how players grow and improve.and he's trying to be more than what he is capable of (currently anyway).
