Ex-Reds defender Steve Nicol believes the man calling the shots at Anfield needs to find a way of getting two forwards to slow down in the final third
Jurgen Klopp needs to “do something with Mohamed Salah and Sadio Mane”, says Liverpool legend Steve Nicol, with two prolific forwards having become slightly “manic” in the final third of the field.
The former Liverpool defender told ESPN on areas a Reds side yet to drop a point in 2019-20 can still improve: “I wouldn’t say it’s a concern, I would say maybe I think Klopp needs to try and do something with particularly Salah and Mane.
“Going forward, they lose the ball too often. It’s one thing to try and go at defenders quickly and try to break quickly.
“But it’s another thing to do it in some sort of… it’s like manic the way they do it.
“If they can just slow it down a little bit, take a little bit more time and think about it a little more then I think the goals will start coming more for those two, if they do that.”
