I was not impressed last year by the offense at all. The only players who performed were Salah and Jota. Mane/Firmino took a huge step back and I am not convinced yet it's just a rough patch. Contrary to most LFC fans I am not drinking the kool aid yet. I am also shocked on how TAA is defended constantly by the fans. I understand he is homegrown and a scouser but he was shockingly bad last year and he got a significant pay raise for that...
As I said prior, I am fully behind Klopp but I think he sometime believe too much in his current players and he does not like transfers to fix issues on the team and he always find internal solutions.
We'll see. I am very... surprised by the lack of worries from LFC fans considering what other top clubs have been doing.
I am worried about CM. We have two who are hurt all the time. But I do also think they're going to sign someone.
As for the attack, this had a lot to do with a few things.
1. Defenders couldn't play a high line anymore, so
2. Because they couldn't play a high line, and because they couldn't pass, the attackers weren't getting the ball in the same positions they always were before.
3. The attackers also had to track back too much to help the defense, which obviously makes it harder to score
