Daniel Rhodes and Mihail Vladimirov
Topics:
- Coutinho as the creator, but unable to be the playmaker: discussing the different skills required, and the impact not having a recognised playmaker causes the attacking creativity.
- Analysing the players now available in the squad to play that role, and coming up with only one: Joe Allen, honestly.
- Why is the squad lacking this type of player?
- Getting the best out of Lallana, as well as the restrictions Rodgers places on him. Will we ever see the Southampton Lallana?
- Finishing with Firmino, and the concerns about also restricting his potential by asking him to execute one dimensional, specific roles within the team, rather than using him in a free role to achieve his full potential.
