Hi Ed01. If you are about, can you give your opinion on this theory? I see people going on about why Shaq did not start of if he should or should not have started. I personally thought Klopp got it right and chose the right strategy BUT that's just me.

I saw a Stoke fan say online after the game that Shaq is very good in a team that is dominating possession and constantly on top during a game where the pace is slow and controlled. However when games become a bit to frantic and relentless (like it was yesterday), he can struggle to cope. Do you think this is the case and do you think it may be while Klopp may not start him in games like this? Cheers, mate!

{Ed001's Note - yes mate, I do think that is a problem for him, like most creative players. They need to get on the ball to make things happen and it is difficult to get on the ball when it is like that. That is why Torreira was the outstanding player in the game.}

Brover you are clutching at straws now mate to try and prove that you are right. It’s your opinion mate so who cares if others hold a different one. If I remember rightly Klopp hasn’t started Shaqiri in many games not just in games like this. Klopp seems to like a conservative midfield 3 and even started to push Coutinho forward at the expense of Mane to keep 3 conservative midfielders in there. Your stoke fan comment made me chuckle. How does a stoke fan know that he is good in a team that dominate possession. It’s harldy like they were possession kings more like hoof ball kings.

Adding a bit more on Torriera ( watched a few bit at his time at sampdoria ) he was tipped to replace Jorginho at Napoli before arsenal offered more money.
Excellent player. One of the best tackler around. He is lightning quick and speads the ball brilliantly. Made look an acreage Xhaka a world beater. Arsenal’s best signings in years!

Are there anyone better than him? Yes
Ndombele at Lyon.

You are right JK. He has no stoke fan mate 😂😂. Trying to bring Ed01 into the whole Shaqiri debate so that other posters just accept his opinion!

He is the sort of player who can exploit space and nick a goal towards the end of a high energy draw. Good move to bring him on. My heart sank when matip came on but we didn't concede. I would have liked to see sturridge.

JK23, I asked an honest question and I got the answer I needed from the Ed who was nice enuff to give me/ us of his opinion. Stoke barely ever played hoofball when Mark Hughes was there except when they were chasing games so there goes your theory. As for the rest of your post, that's some rant mate. Take a day off, man. You sound paranoid.

JK23, what's your beef? I asked for more info based on something I saw on social media and Ed01 responded. It was NOT to prove anyone right or wrong as I'm not interested in that. I wanted to know why Klopp does not start Shaq as much as many would want (based on what I saw someone say) and Ed has given his reasons and opinion on the issue. You sound bitter and paranoid, man. It's just football and opinions. Isn't that what you always say? I propose you follow your own advice, bro.

I propose you take a chill pill cos I'm not as obssessed over things as you are, clearly. Oh btw, here is the youtube link: https:/ / www. youtube. com/ watch? v=K3y6FAzx0Dc (start from 2:40). Enjoy the clip. You and your buddy Fillet Weld (Harry in disguise, really) just embarrassed yourselves on the internet. Cheers, man!
