Heavy metal football is what Jurgen Klopp likes and he's brought it to the Premier League.

Liverpool are intense, relentless and look incredibly threatening this season - with only a few smart summer signings, Klopp has created a fast-paced attacking machine, crammed with creative goalscorers and devastating on the counter.

They might actually be the most fun team to watch in the Premier League at the moment. So how has he done it?

Intensity and the gegenpress

We were told Klopp would bring the gegenpress (the counter-counter attack) and doubts were cast over whether the method would actually make a difference in a league where every single player is a finely tuned super athlete and expected to perform at 100% intensity in every minute of every day.

Gegenpressing works.

When Liverpool go forward, they do so in numbers and when they lose the ball, they win it back immediately in numbers.
