I myself prefer to send people to satisfy private for those four, and also a footballer, who keep the guy in front of the goalkeeper.`
`If you`re letting goals so easy - Juergen Klopp himself sees it - so you`re bound to get involved. If your players are outplayed in personal protection, so just change the tactics and keep it zonal.`
`Now he is confronted with another problem - a lack of goals. Since Luis Suarez left the team hit just stopped. Even more so, and Daniel Sturridge is injured. In the season, when we finished second, with five-man squad attacked Suarez, Sturridge, Raheem Sterling, Philippe Coutinho and Jordan Henderson. Five men in the attack, five of them in defense plus the goalkeeper. When you play like that, you`re bound to get the goals, and the boys were brilliant.`, added Rodgers.
