Yeah, yeah.
But the idea of feelings within this context is really important.
As you were speaking there, I got taken back to, it was a game against Man City a few years ago.
Klopp's Liverpool against Man City was at Anfield and Liverpool were terrible in the first half and really good in the second half and Klopp got asked about it post-match.
I remember tweeting the interview because he spoke quite tactically and he doesn't tend to do that, Klopp.
And he spoke about, like, it was like a... What's the word?
Like a flowchart of how things deteriorate from, first off, the approach, not getting close enough, not being able to keep the ball.
And then I remember Klopp saying what that gives you then is a really bad feeling.
And what the bad feeling leads to is not playing football.
And it kind of deteriorates from there, so...
That's why the approach is so important.
That's why you want Liverpool to almost seize the initiative and be dominant, or at least attempt to be dominant.
Because Liverpool are just kind of doing bits of everything without actually doing anything.
And there's lots of flipping a coin when it comes to Liverpool's approach, with and without the ball.
Lots of just long goal kicks, hoofs up the field to Gakpo, who's got no one around to win a header.
We're pressing, but we're not, you know.
Do you know how many completed passes they went into Gachpo in the game?
