Maybe if we played them both at the same time it might give someone the confidence to lump the ball forward a bit because they'll know someone is in the vicinity? I say lump because inch perfect defence splitting passes can come later. Leicester were giving it good go yesterday.
Too slow at the moment without a sufficient lukaku replacement despite millions spent over two three windows (all three of which they entered knowing lukaku would be leaving in this one) Also this is the first telling sign of the europa effect One thing that I don't see mentioned often is their wages. There are often comments about how their net spend is not high due to the lukaku sale and a few others. But every player they have brought in over the past three windows will be a significant increase in wages as they are all quite high profile. Maybe they have offloaded more people on free transfers / low fees who were on high wages but I wouldn't be surprised if they have seen a surge in wages. For example I expect Morgan, Williams, gylfi and Rooney are all on similar or more than lukaku was. That is 4 to 1 high wage swing And the side still seems unbalanced despite all that investment
I say at the moment because Koeman probably still wants half a team of players in the last week of the window...
So bad from Holding. He's got to know that Mane wants to come back inside there - body shape all wrong. Top stuff from Mane though.
Without Mané Liverpool don't look half the team. Without Mané neither have we. Quite special that boy.
