More horrific defending saw Liverpool fall to defeat to Newcastle United on Saturday, and their lopsided line-up points to the need for specialist coaching, writes Jack Lusby.

The day before Halloween, Liverpool defender Jose Enrique posted pictures via his Twitter account of the club’s Spanish contingent of himself, Alberto Moreno, Javier Manquillo and Suso dressed up to celebrate the British non-holiday.


Flash forward two days and Moreno was part of a Liverpool defence that once more fell flat, as Alan Pardew’s resurgent Newcastle United defeated the Reds 1-0 at St. James’ Park.


It was a particular defensive horror-show from the former Sevilla man, as his attempted interception fell at the feet of Newcastle striker Ayoze Perez, who gleefully smashed the ball home.


Brendan Rodgers’ side now lie in seventh place in the Premier League, with a paltry goal difference of zero highlighting the Reds’ problems at both ends of the pitch.


While Mario Balotelli continues to toil for his elusive first league goal since moving to Merseyside, it’s Liverpool’s defence that stands out as the most gruesome.


It was in their bizarre and infuriatingly lopsided shape that lies the problem, and demands a rather touchy subject to be revisited by Rodgers: In order to lighten his training workload and tighten up his back four, he must delegate to a specialist defensive coach.

Vs. Newcastle United


Against Newcastle, Rodgers’ deployed a back line of Glen Johnson, Martin Skrtel, Dejan Lovren and Alberto Moreno, in what is ostensibly—given the frequency of this line-up—his preferred back four.


The immediate, glaring omission here is Spanish right-back Javier Manquillo.


Rodgers’ continued faith in the lacklustre Johnson, who has arguably turned in at most two promising performances this season, and generally not stretching to the full 90, over Manquillo on the right-hand side of defence is baffling.


According to WhoScored, Manquillo averages 5.5 tackles per game, dwarfing Johnson’s average of 2.2 per game; if you’re looking for defensive solidity, the 20-year-old is your man.


Furthermore, while Johnson is lauded for his attacking prowess, Manquillo also averages at more crosses (0.9) and more key passes (0.8) per game.


Selecting Johnson also points to the bizarre shape that the Reds’ back line employed from the start.


With Moreno effectively advanced in to the left wing position, Johnson was often utilised as a third centre-back, coming inside to support Lovren and Skrtel. This in turn saw Raheem Sterling operate as a wing-back at times, stifling the Reds’ attacking play.


Newcastle boss Alan Pardew, prior to the game, outlined how his side would “put Liverpool under pressure in certain areas and impose our physicality on them,” perhaps pointing towards the Reds’ weak back line.


After the game, Pardew admitted “Liverpool threw me because I wasn’t expecting them to play three at the back,” but this decision played in to his hands all the more.


This is most clear with Perez’s goal, on 73 minutes, with a mistake from Moreno in a crowded central area allowing the Spaniard a real poachers finish.


Ayoze Goal


The opportunity stemmed from Johnson’s trademark 25-yard attempt on goal, cutting in from the right-hand side to shoot with his weaker left. The resulting block saw Johnson marooned and Moussa Sissoko and Remy Cabella able to combined effectively in a vacant wide area.


On this occasion, Moreno served as the third centre-back, and with this in mind Newcastle were able to exploit both flanks; it was an unfortunate mistake from the left-back to gift Perez with the goal, but in a foreign position.


The back three may have thrown Pardew, but proved a delightful surprise for Newcastle.

A Sensible Solution?


The subject of defensive coaching has been widely debated surrounding the failures of Liverpool under Rodgers this season, and on a wider scale too.


Former Manchester United coach Rene Meulensteen recently attested that “Rodgers’ biggest failure is that he’s not invested in his staff.”


The Dutchman continued to tell BBC Radio 5 Live that, with the Reds’ involvement in the Champions League this season, “it’s a different rhythm that requires a different style of training and a different management strategy through the week. You need to know these things.”


Furthermore, in an excellent piece for The Telegraph , Sky Sports analyst Gary Neville lamented the level of defensive coaching in the Premier League:



“My era of men who retired around 2009-2010 were the last crop of predominantly defensively-trained players. Coaching has shot off in another direction, towards the technical. I’ve had that confirmed by people at academies. The technical and attacking work is now around 80 per cent with 20 per cent reserved for defensive skills.”



This is definitely true of Liverpool’s shoddy defending this season—it is as if the back line is thrown together with little planning and fingers crossed that a clean sheet will materialise.


Rodgers has been vehement recently in his refusal to appoint a specialist defensive coach, claiming “I think it is just a lack of coaching time that is hurting us. We need to reinforce basic principles at defensive set pieces, but we know that already. We have to get better and we will be working on it.”


However, as the manager continued that he was up into the early hours recently “thinking of ways that I could make us better,” points to an unmanageable workload on Merseyside.


As this recent performance shows, Liverpool are getting no better, and perhaps it is time to lighten the load on Rodgers.

Adaptation


Stemming from Rodgers’ words is stubbornness in the manager.


We’ve seen this with his dismissal of the notion of a Director of Football, his approach towards players perceived to be ‘committee’ signings (clarification pending), and now his refusal to appoint a specific defensive coach.


This is an admirable quality in a way, but the manager’s sleepless nights point to a heavy workload that could be relieved.


It is no secret that Rodgers has sought to renew the ‘Boot Room’ mentality at the club, employing Rob Jones, Robbie Fowler and Steve McManaman as part-time Academy mentors, and turning to Jamie Carragher—a symbol of defensive stability under the manager in 2012/13—could be an option.

Furthermore, whilst it would take a heavy measure of persuasion, the former success of Steve Clarke in this role alongside Kenny Dalglish could provide the optimum candidate to shore up a leaky back line.


Perhaps Rodgers would do best to look further afield, towards a coach tailored to his specific system of high-tempo, pressing football. For example, Roberto Mancini brought Angelo Gregucci with him to Manchester City, as a coach he knows and trusts, and vice versa.


There are a multitude of reasons why Brendan Rodgers should turn to appointing a defensive coach following this downturn in performance, against Newcastle the Reds were dire and their poor defensive shape is bleeding into the ensuing attacking set-up.


The Liverpool manager may just have to adapt his values to come to terms with this.


Should Brendan Rodgers now look to appoint a defensive coach? Let us know in the comments below.

Manuel Pellegrini’s praise of Steven Gerrard this weekend has sent the Rumour Mill into overdrive, with newspapers diving head first into ‘Gerrard to Man City’ stories.


LIVERPOOL, ENGLAND - Wednesday, October 22, 2014: Liverpool's captain Steven Gerrard looks dejected as Real Madrid CF score the second goal during the UEFA Champions League Group B match at Anfield. (Pic by David Rawcliffe/Propaganda)


Gerrard's existing contract with the Reds ends in June but Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers remains confident the 34-year-old will stay on at Anfield beyond the end of the current season.



City have already demonstrated their willingness to put their trust in veteran players this season with the short-term loan signing of another former England midfielder, 36-year-old Frank Lampard, and Blues boss Pellegrini believes Gerrard still has plenty to offer in the years ahead.


Pellegrini told several national newspapers: "I don't ever rate players on their age. It depends on the money they cost and the number of years they have (on their contract).


"But, like Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard is a top player and he can continue at a high level for a couple more years."


Of course, it’s impossible for a manager of another club to heap praise on a rivals’ player without a wave of transfer hype being built up.


The Daily Mail jump on the bandwagon with ‘Steven Gerrard targeted by Man City’, whilst the Independent go with ‘I want Steven Gerrard if he leaves Liverpool, says Manchester City manager Manuel Pellegrini’.


Rodgers was asked about Gerrard's future following the 1-0 defeat at Newcastle on Saturday.


He said: 'It's quite straightforward. I had a meeting with Steven's representative explaining the situation. I very much want him to be a part of what we are doing here.


"He's been a brilliant captain for me. I relayed that to the ownership. I'm sure he will go away with that and hopefully his representative will organise a deal.


"Steven is very much part of what I'm doing here. He's a unique player, a unique talent."


Gerrard made his senior debut for Liverpool in November 1998 having first been spotted by the club as a nine-year-old playing for local side Whiston Juniors.


What do you believe the future has in store for Gerrard? Let us know your thoughts in the comments section below.

ANALYSIS



NEWLIV (1-0)



LACK OF CREATIVY REDS VS WELL ORGANIZED NUFC



Liverpool hadir dalam perlawanan ini dalam tekanan selepas memulakan kempen di bawah par.

Menukar majoriti pasukan vs Swansea , Liverpool bermula dengan 4-1-2-2-1

dengan Coutiho di no.10 role dan Sterling di wide Area dan Balotelli di lone striker.

Newcastle bermula dengan 4-4-2 yang lebih compact di centre midfielder. Alan Pardew yang sebelum ini berhadapan

dengan ancaman dan kecama PARDEWOUT team datang ke game ini dengan head high selepas menang away ke atas MCFC.



FIRST HALF.



Game agak hambar dan NUFC bermain direct football dan lebih berhak mendapat sesuatu berbanding Liverpool. lovren dan

Skrtel lebih dipaksa bekerja keras. Yang menarikknya jumlah hantaran antara Skrtel dan Lovren adalah tertinggi berbanding

kombinasi pemain Liverpool yang lain . Ini bukti lack of connection antara pemain di zonal lain dan pasukan keselurunhannya.

NUFC ada ratio 38% passes dan bukti mereka bermain super direct football 4-4-2.

Mignolet gagal melakukan clearance dari corner kick yang diselamatkan Johnson selepas huru hara.

Secara total first half , Newcastle leboh fokus kepada mendapatkan gol dari sumber free kick atau bola mati.



Yang teruknya, Liverpool ada 8 shot on gol tapi 0 shot on target. Newcastle dengan jumlah shot on goal 8 tapi cuma 1 on target,

another prove , kedua dua pasukan tidak ada spearhed yang berkualiti . Balotelli cuma ada 17 touches separuh masa pertama dan

Sterling memang out tune.



Second Half Performance.



Liverpool start mendominasi perlawanan , dan membangkitkan sedikit harapan. Newcastle stay deep dan cuba bermain counter attack.

Liverpool kelihatan sentiasa cemas bila berdepan counter attack. Build up dihadapan dibantu oleh 2 offensive fullback yang

kerap naik. Namun masalah utama ialah bila dicounter attack , Organisai back 4 dan defensive unit gagal melakukan closing down

dalam kadar yang cepat. Semangat Liverpool disentak oleh gol Perez akibat soft defending yang membenarkan Sisokho masuk ke final third

dalam kedudukan 3 vs 4 dan Perez make ni mistake. Mungkin Moreno scramble clearanca adalah punca bola itu ke kaki Perez, namun

isu sekarang , kenapa di area right back tidak dimatikan gerakan itu lebih awal. Top defensive unit akan sanggup melakukan

tactical foul untuk stop the potential thread. Please call Nemanja Vidic untuk pencerahan.



TACTICAL ANALYSIS



STERLING

Jelas Sterling bukan winger yang boleh melakukan servis ,dia lebih kepada Right Wings attacker. Collocini dan Dummet sepanjang perlawanan

cukup disiplin mengawasi sterling. Dummet bermain man marking dan Collocini dengnan zonal marking. Di siss satu lagi , taylor dan Janmaat lebih

menumpukan ancaman Coutinho vberbanding balo. Mereka tahu , Balotelli bukan striker yang boleh mencari gol sendiri. Dia perlukan servis. Jadi

mereka matikan sumber servis.



KUALITI SERVIS DAN KEY PASS

Ia bukan alasan untuk tidak mendapat gol. Target man system jika ada servis yang bagus boleh berjaya . Balotelli menjaringkan gol

kerana assist Borini yang baik hari itu. Tapi dalam game ini , Sterling bermain untuk menjaringkan gol dan bukan mencipta gol. Coutinho pula berdepan &039;provokasi&039; fizikal dari Abeid , Colback di tengah. Allen clueless dan Gerrard is never a good DMF , LUCAS ???

Sorry to say , persembahan Hendo sangat poor. Brendan patut gunakan more discipline DMF sperti Lucas Leiva . Saya tahu lucas bukan top DMF tapi diantara pemain yang ada , dia lebih baik sementara tunggu Januari.



Balotelli



Terlibat din banyak box namun ukuran striker adalah pada Goal Tally , DI second half dia banyak turun ke belakang meninggalkan zon no.9

Borini dimasukkan untuk lebih bermain di shoulder dan belakang back 4 newcastle , namun masih gagal memberi impak.



SISOKHO



Top performer untuk game ini , menggunakan mobiliti untuk menggerakkan bola dari bawah ke atas dalam sistem

sat back and counter attack. Area final third, middle third amat jauh gap , namun Sisokho berjaya mengatasi masalah itu dengan stamina

dan enrgy.



KESIMPULAN



Kita hilang fast and furios football dengan quality interchange passes pada musim lepas. Lack of squad depth juga menjadi isu.

Lambert gagal memberi impak. Dalam erti kata lain , saya lebih prefer team vs Swansea tempoh hari yang lebih bernafsu melayan

pihak lawan. Sterling patut dikembalikan di striking zone. Saya harap dia main False 9 . Mignolet overall bermain baik namun

ditenggelamkan scoreline malam tadi. Defensive untuk improve dalam deal dengan setpiece namun dalam tarcking dan closing down

bila di counter attack lawan pula menjadi masalah.

Sisokho adalah punca kemenangan NUFC dengan box to box play yang banyak membantu attacking line.

Gareth Bale: Real Madrid winger back in training


Gareth Bale: Real Madrid winger back in training




Gareth Bale looks set to be available for Real Madrid for Tuesday’s Champions League clash with Liverpool.


The Wales international winger has missed Real's last five games with a pelvic muscle injury, but returned to training with the European champions on Sunday.


The La Liga leaders have not missed Bale’s presence, though, as they have won all five of those matches, scoring 19 goals in the process.


However, Real boss Carlo Ancelotti played down suggestions Bale will find it difficult to regain his place in the side.


"Everyone thinks that Bale is a problem, but I think he is a player that will help us to be even better," said the Italian.


A victory over Liverpool in the Group B clash at the Bernabeu will guarantee Real's place in the last-16.


Right-back Dani Carvajal is now Ancelotti's only injury doubt after limping off during the 4-0 win over Granada on Saturday.

Right-back Dani Carvajal is now Ancelotti's only injury doubt after limping off during the 4-0 win over Granada on Saturday.

Akhirkata Pemain yang bagus di lepaskan,memang Liverpool untung dari segi wang ringgit,tapi liverpool rugi dari segi persembahan musim ini.kalau tidak pasti gandingan SaS menakluki Eropah seperti BPL musim lepas.betul x warga KPLM?? benda dah berlalu biar di jadikan sebagai kenangan..Fokus dan terus sokong Liverpool apabila menang or kalah.Kritikkan membina bukan kerana &039;Lalang&039;,tapi kritikkan kerana sayang kelab yang kita sokong..Wa trust BR..
