#3. Klopp needs a solid plan to break down defensive solid teams
Trending
While there is no taking away credit from a well-drilled and organised Hull City defence, Liverpool simply have to do more or find an alternative to score.
Coutinho, Sadio Mane, Adam Lallana and Roberto Firmino started together for the first time since November but it made little difference. Their strength lay in attack and it was their best form of defence but the frontline is as much lacking in form and creativity as in clinical finishing prowess.
All too often, Klopp’s men have been found wanting when it comes to dealing with sides that sit deep; while that was one of the issues in the first few games of the season, it has now become an effective tactic to counter the gegenpress.
Liverpool may have all the possession but rarely threaten in the final third. The German at the helm will have time to introspect and come up with a solution; however, he needs to be quick as the competition is heating up and his side will definitely want to be in contention for the top four to have something to show for at the end of the season.
