Like the lineup, but a lot of pressure on Gilmour. The experience of Lees-Melou and Rupp will help as long as we don't push both FBs forward and rely more on counter-attacking.
Strangely they’re playing him through the middle and yet I don’t remember him ever playing particularly well there for us
It’s annoying that we basically conceded from a lucky pinball scuff. But frankly we look so vulnerable from corners it’s ridiculous, and we are not getting enough into the box. Not a bad start, though.
Some lose marking in the penalty area led to the goal. Pukki on his own when we threaten is not going to bring us any joy, but the lone striker is way we play.
Yeah, when we attack our players are coming from too deep to get into the box. Liverpool look the better team to me, but not by very much.
I agree with all of that. We look pretty good on the ball til we get close. Good cross by Gianni at the end.
I think we're doing ok considering the opposition. Hanley looks good considering he hasn't kicked a ball since the Euro's.
Pleased with the play so far and Rashica's pace and trickery will be a weapon we've been lacking. Lees-Melou looks strong and calm in the middle and he and Rupp have helped Gilmour to play his game.
