Liverpool: Jason McAteer Identifies Major Weakness Jurgen Klopp Must Address

This season it seems that Liverpool are an attacking tour de force, as the graphic shows that they have four players occupying the top 12 spots.

Henderson admitted shackling all three at the same time could prove beyond all but the very best defences.

Sturridge, who has struggled to break into the free-scoring attack, said Klopp’s focus in training was mostly on tactics. His goals against Watford demonstrated natural striking instincts”, Crooks said. “Mane is what I regard as an all-around player but I wouldn’t put him in the same category as a fox in the box like Daniel Sturridge.

But he was not backward in singing the praises of the current crop – particularly Mane, who has adapted so quickly to Liverpool’s system since his £34million summer signing from Southampton.

“This is a very good team with very good players, but you don’t get anything for being top in November”, Henderson said after the resounding win, echoing the sentiment of manager Jurgen Klopp.

Many have understandably been left in awe with Mane’s performances at Anfield so far this term and now teammate Clyne has also gone on to hail the winger’s qualities, particularly his pace.

The midfielder stressed the importance of continuing to work hard at the training ground and says the side will not get ahead of themselves.

“I think that has to be your approach because as much as you learn, opponents learn about you too”.

But with less than a third of the season completed, Klopp preached level-headedness amid the growing excitement of a title challenge.

“It’s a really good moment and I know that everybody compares with the past, especially at Liverpool”, Klopp told Liverpool’s website.

But Klopp did warn that this was a very different outfit to the one that eventually finished runners-up to Manchester City, after the infamous Steven Gerrard slip which handed Chelsea a decisive win.
