Agreed that we were far more aggressive in the second leg against Barca but if you look at most of our goals, they came from wide areas (cross from Shaqiri, cross from Trent and corner from Trent). Our style last year allowed us to create through the middle because we had a genius in coutinho, and we had progressive runners from midfield like Can and Ox. When both were injured, we literally crawled over the finishing line, and then we were found wanting in the final once Salah went off because we had no midfield creativity, and we weren’t reliant on full backs to provide the attacking outlet.
Our system is also set up with the front three fairly narrow and going through the middle. Teams have congested this area more to make it difficult, but now leaves more space out wide for Robertson and Trent. If they try to cut out that then Salah and mane will get more joy
And vvd pings glorious passes to the right sdie and then trent plays balls form heaven 60 yards across to robertson.... its pure ****ing sex i tell you!!!!
For me, it’s the thing we miss most about Gerrard and Coutinho even. We are virtually zero threat from outside of the box.
True lol. But the amount of times i scream shoot because we are trying to walk it in like arsenal used to. Just a shame the ball always seems to drop perfectly to the wrong ruddy person!
Liverpool are ready to listen to offers for Xherdan Shaqiri Napoli have made an enquiry for Liverpool defender Nathaniel Clyne Liverpool are following RB Leipzig defender Ibrahima Konate Liverpool are interested in Real Madrid midfielder James Rodriguez
I think the Memphis Depay and Felipe Anderson rumours are hotting up. I would be happy with just both if no other signings were made.
Rumour has it and this has been ongoing for months that Klopp had been hugely impressed with Adam Lewis the under 23 left back. Adam Lewis, Curtis Jones and Rhian Brewster are expected to be part of the squad going to the USA.
Nah well worth the money because he adds something we don't currently have. All money is well spent when it improves what you currently have. If it doesn't, it's not money well spent.
