There was a point with Skrtel were he looked like he could develop in to a top class near post aggressive type defender but then he just turned into a foul machine and in turn an absolute liability because he became too aggresive in his defending. By that I dont mean fouling I mean coming out of shape to clear the ball or whatever.
To be fair to him, it's to successive coaching staffs detriments that they've not picked up on his basic, fundamental flaws that most everyone else can see. You aren't going to correct them at his current age, but when they happen over and over it begs the question why they've not been rectified a LONG time back? But then before Klopp and his guys arrived, you were often left wondering if we did ANY defensive work the training ground.
