The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

Yeah, yeah.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

But the idea of feelings within this context is really important.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

As you were speaking there, I got taken back to, it was a game against Man City a few years ago.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

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.

The Anfield Wrap

I remember tweeting the interview because he spoke quite tactically and he doesn't tend to do that, Klopp.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

And he spoke about, like, it was like a... What's the word?

The Anfield Wrap

Like a flowchart of how things deteriorate from, first off, the approach, not getting close enough, not being able to keep the ball.

The Anfield Wrap

And then I remember Klopp saying what that gives you then is a really bad feeling.

The Anfield Wrap

And what the bad feeling leads to is not playing football.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

Yeah.

The Anfield Wrap

And it kind of deteriorates from there, so...

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

That's why the approach is so important.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

That's why you want Liverpool to almost seize the initiative and be dominant, or at least attempt to be dominant.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

Because Liverpool are just kind of doing bits of everything without actually doing anything.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

And there's lots of flipping a coin when it comes to Liverpool's approach, with and without the ball.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

Lots of just long goal kicks, hoofs up the field to Gakpo, who's got no one around to win a header.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

We're pressing, but we're not, you know.

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

Do you know how many completed passes they went into Gachpo in the game?

The Anfield Wrap
Chelsea & The Race For Europe: The Trends

Not many.

The Anfield Wrap

Six.
