When Big Sam is your backup plan - OTT 36 [R]

He may be positionally but you can see the differences between them just from this game.

Coutinho is more tricky and creative. Keita is more direct, makes runs from midfield, and will win the ball back for you. Both great players.

And now Keita is hurt ...

 

Right, they definitely have different qualities, but Klopp would be able to use Naby in the same position. He will offer more than Phil defensively, even though it doesn’t seem like Leipzig are asking for him to do much defending.

He also is capable of the killer pass to release the front 3, he can take on 3 players at a time with his dribbling, and is not afraid to take on a shot from outside the area. These qualities sound mighty familiar.

 

Keita isn't hurt, he just went down easily. He's way too soft and won't help you guys immediately. He also gets frustrated very easily when calls don't go his way. I have serious doubts if Keita can handle the physicality of the Premier League.

 

Interesting not a single other person has ever said this - fans of opposing teams, opposing managers, the "expert" pundits, and RBL supporters

 

Well, watching Bundesliga actually would help. But hey, you will learn yourself when he joins your team.

 

And like I said - fans of other teams, RBL fans and the “experts” (you know - the ones that watch Bundesliga - like Honigstein).

 

There are no RB Leipzig fans, I like Honigstein but he's way too desperate selling German soccer in GB and speaking of opposing fans: who you think am I? [emoji14]
But again: believe me or not, you will learn yourself, don't you?

 

Oh I know you are a Monchengladbach supporter. But you are a bit of an outlier from everything we’ve read and watched. And then if you add in the newfangled stats that’s everyone’s pointing out - he ticks all he boxes.

 

Everton are tragic.

 

That’s not something I would worry about with Keita. He’s a very physical player who does everything at pace. He’s the perfect Klopp player.
