So after criticising United's apparent "long" ball approach Klopp has seemingly taken to the long ball game in his previous two outings.

Funnily enough it was Shane Long who put the nail in the coffin today.

To me, all the "criticism" of the long ball from coaches/fans/pundits (of any team) is either just said to get under the opposition skin, just jumping on the criticism bandwagon etc. Players & Coaches do what is "best" dependant on circumstances.

The "Long Ball" has a place in the game - it requires skill in execution, timing, accuracy etc. Whose to say Fellaini wont do something like this from a "Long Ball"  ;-) ....#deluded

Because that would require Fellaini to have two decent touches of the football in a row
