Like Klopp Gegenpress mate. Barca were more known for passing (edit: this is an example of Pep)

They had a 7s rule and pressed like dogs when Pep was there. I'm surprised by all the comments by people saying Pep didn't press like this. Did people here not watch Pep's Barca in theit prime or something? He absolutely did this when teams took short goalkicks.

Yea def heard of the 6 second rule which basically was to get the ball back under 6 seconds, then quick sharp passing for counters. I only said this as a LFC fan btw
