They didn't adjust, they started implementing their systems immediately. It took while for both them to get going. Both had the benefit of a more suitable squad of players that fit their system. Pep took over a league winning team and Klopp took over a team that took the league title down to the last match.
If he was pragmatic he would switch to the system these players know, to at least finish at a non embarrassing place in the table, then buy suitable players in the summer (cant do so in January) They lost games in the previous system but never such a nose dive. And what RvN tried is actually better than EtH's version, so there is some compromise.
So I guess you didnt hear him speak or ready anything I said cause its clearly explained why he shouldnt change the formation to a back 4.
I've seen this argument plenty tonight. Why is everyone talking as if he Bruno and Ugarte on the bench and he chose to go with Zirkzee and Eriksen? Mainoo started the last 2 games and he has said injuries have been a problem so he needs to manage the squad better. So he wasnt going to risk Mainoo by starting him 3 games in a row. So btw Mainoo did not have a good game at Wolves. So it could be performance related as well.
Didn’t Amorim say he puts importance on condition of players so he will interchange regularly?
If your making serious structural changes to your team after 30 mins you've fecked up with your selection.
Sure I did. But the results are much worse than anyone ever predicted. If the Swiss cheese holes align , we legit might end up in a relegation scrap. Are you going to accept that hoping the players manage to "be convinced" (Amorim's words) , learn the system and fight for staying up in the league?
So according to you if we switch back to a 4-2-3-1 he can get a tune out of the players?
yes. Because that's what they've shown to be capable of doing (won a couple of trophies that way) and , more importantly, seem to prefer it. Something ridiculous to say 15 years ago but apparently now and in this club players have a say in tactics and need to be convinced. Because of the absurd amount of money they are on, and the club unable to spend freely on the market.
Yup. He is trying to change the car tyre while driving. Not going to work.
They showed they were capable of playing in a 4-2-3-1? Then why was the previous manager sacked and why were we 13th when he was sacked? Why was our goal difference in the negative last year. Why did we finish 8th last year?
The results were unsatisfactory. The results now are disastrous . I'd say they were more capable of producing the odd result in the previous system.
But we won the cups.
Wow so you dont even care if we play well, if we dominate, if we play in a proper system. You just want the odd result like we got with Ten Hag? And results were only unsatisfactory under Ten Hag? They weren't disastrous?
Ok! Atleast Amorim is trying to do the right thing and said so himself there will be short term pain hopefully for long term success. But you are happy with short term gain?Well at least he’s telling it as it is. Ten Hag would have actually complimented tonight’s performance, likewise all previous losses.Wow so you dont even care if we play well, if we dominate, if we play in a proper system. You just want the odd result like we got with Ten Hag? And results were only unsatisfactory under Ten Hag? They weren't disastrous?
What I want is to not be in a relegation scrap. Another thing I would prefer is if a group of players cannot learn a system or are ill equipped for it , then stop trying to empirically define insanity. Use what they are capable for temporarily and then buy the players you need in the summer . That's the pragmatic approach. Because it may well turn out the current group is not suited to this system. And you cannot replace the group in January.Wow so you dont even care if we play well, if we dominate, if we play in a proper system. You just want the odd result like we got with Ten Hag?
