I think Klopp would have to compromise a lot at first to get the best out of the squad, specially from Mignolet and Skrtel. I can see Gomez getting a shot to partner Sahko in a back 4 but what about the goalkeeper? Do we just leave a giant space between the defence and the goalie?
That's a decently interesting take.
You'ld have to ask TP about Ings .. I just haven't seen enough to have a judgement.
re Benteke: I'm basically sure that he's a CL quality forward in terms of his offensive play. But I don't know how good his pressing would be - though it seems hard to think that he couldn't be whipped into shape. [Reductively, I'm thinking of how much Berahino's pressing is improved by Pulis constantly shouting at him.]
[edit] re Skrtel etc: I agree that I think you can't expect an instantaneous conversion to high pressing.
