As Firminho is in the bench give him a run second half, get Mane back on the left and give Diaz a run on the right or take him and Jota off and put Salah on the right
We look panicked when pressed, thiago doing nothing, ****ing sadio. Painful half of football to watch. Half hearted press, easily played through, midfield have been dominated, defence looks oddly shaky with minimal pressure applied.
Well that was a half a chance there. Shows that even when we’re ****, when have TAA playmaking, he’ll create a chance. Been awful all round play but arsenal barely threatened despite the ****fest over their performance and we’ve had best 2 chances with that mane effort and the vvd header.
Change one thing: Pass to players not to zones. Arsenal is anticipating where the speculative passes are going. Need to be more conservative in their passes.
No to little movement. No one-twos, little forward passing, slow/pedestrian, midfield 10 yards too deep - showing arsenal a lot of respect here…have they had a shot in target?
I hope klopps slaps some faces in that dressing room, don't think we've won a loose ball yet. Im fumin Klopp must be. Expect a different half.
Defenders have been "clearing it" instead of passing out. Midfielders have been "booting it forward" or passing backwards. Forwards have not been bringing each other in. When they have tried passing it into space it's been into space for Arsenal to get to. Lately in last several matches I've noticed TAA hasn't been weighting passes well. Even his short passes end up rebounding off the recipient.
