Europe League beckons: Why Jurgen Klopp is very worried about Salzburg

Image
The reigning European champions are on the verge of exiting the competitions in the round of 16. 

Liverpool could become the second team in 10 years to exit the Champions League in the group stage since AC Milan. But to prevent that from happening Jurgen Klopp's men must beat Salzburg at Red Bull Arena which frankly is no easy feat. 

Salzburg is no push over and Klopp know this. He watched as Jesse Marsch men came back from a 3-0 defeat in the first half to draw 3-3 in the second half. It took a moment of pure genius from Mohamed Salah to find the winning goal and salvage respect from the home side. 

Now, Austria team have an opportunity to create history, they've the chance to dump Liverpool out of the Champions League by beating them at home and progressing to the round of 16. 

It won't be easy though but why would you doubt them knowing that Liverpool's defence is very weak and porous. 

This season, the Reds have played 9 games at Anfield and every visiting team, starting with Norwich City have scored against them. In fact, they've kept just 3 clean sheet all season which goes to prove there's a problem with Liverpool's back-line. 

Last season, they conceded just 22 Premier League goals all season and 33 in all competition but this season, they've conceded 15 goals in just 22 games played. 

Defensively, Liverpool are weak and that is main reason they back at square one, hooping like last season a saving dive, shot or quality help to reach the Champions League round of 16. 

Alisson Becker saved Piotr Zielinski shot to deny Napoli a round of 16 berth and Liverpool a chance to win the trophy which they did. 

Against Salzburg, it might turn out to be the same, success is waiting but Liverpool just have to grind out or just maybe, luck has finally run out and disaster looms for Jurgen Klopp and his men.

Marco Materazzi is right! Barcelona is no longer a team but a one man club

Take out Lionel Messi from Barcelona and you will be marveled how low the club have fallen. The Bluagrana giants no longer have the spine that won they trophies and made them the most dominant club in the world. Right now, everything depends on Messi and how fit he is. He is expected to be back against Inter Milan and once again lead Barcelona to victory. Leo is the world best player, some might agree with that statement others might disagree but ever since he burst into the world scene 15 years ago, he has always been and continues to be the best. Most Barcelona coach have been tempted to let Messi do everything but the smart one's realized over time that Messi is not the team but just an integral part of it. They understood they have to promote talented players from their academy {Andres Iniesta, Xavi Hernandez, Sergio Busquet, Gerard Pique and so on..} or sign superstars like {Ivan Rakitic, Jordi Alba, Ter- Stegan, Luis Suarez and others} to help Messi and Barcelona wi...
