Tomo 21,751 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 9 minutes ago, Clockwork said: I see. I personally don't care about our rivals and do not judge Sarri based on others. I honestly think Sarri is a good coach, from a perspective of improving players and coaching them. But there lies the other aspects which is very important to a manager success. He simply goes into every game with the same mindset, during game is the same change he makes regardless of the situation or players performance. He is playing his two best players out of position, and nowhere near getting the best out of them. He persist with the 4-3-3 and lineup thinking he will achieve something and build some sort of foundation. But he isn't, a lot of those players are not going to improve and should not be part of the squad moving forward. Alonso, Willian, Pedro, Barkley, and Kovacic for sure imo. There are also players like Azpi who i don't think is optimal to this style, and there is also Luiz who has been phenomenal this season but also out of contract. After the Arsenal loss i am looking forward to see how he responds. Hazard i agree with but Kante's best position doesn't exist in this system and CDM restricts him even more. He is unfortunate in the same way Ash would have been if he encountered Conte while he was here as he would have been less effective as a LWB or LCB but also too good to leave out, so it's about finding his best position within and i think this is it and he's getting better, probably has been the one plus amoungst this current rut. I think the issue is the midfield as a whole, i think all three are just the right type of profile to have us challenging again but lack the balance a bit like a CM version of the Hazard/Mata/Oscar trio, if we could somehow pull off a Coutinho esque signing in Kova's position we would be a totally different proposition.

Hazard, after a bright start, is in utter regression. He has fucked up Kante badly. Rudiger was already decent at CB. Ampadu hardly plays and CHO is leaving more than likely. Kepa doesnt count. Most of the rest of the team, Jorginho included, is in shambles atm. So, no, he has most definitely NOT improved the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is ridiculous, then the same should be applied to the 'Klopp/Guardiola got time to build their own squad and see what they've achieved. Sarri should get the same!' argument.
