Fanfiction, Agent Commissions and Stamford the Lion
A take on what I'd do in the fictional scenario to be tasked to get the football club back on track
Based on my experience of building squads from scratch in 4 different programs
🗣️ Arne Slot: "I didn't improve any individual player at Liverpool. What I did when I arrived is realizing that we are going to play a game every 3 days, so I made my squad as fit as possible, maximum fitness. Once you achieve that, all qualities will come out automatically."
Love him or hate him, this is the truest 2 minutes you’ll hear all season

🔹Chizaram Ezenwata - Chelsea U18s
🔹 Back to goal, box movement, runs
🔹 Rabah Madjer
🔹 Signing and coaching the best strikers in 🇫🇷 lower tiers in 2024-25 back in the late 2010s
🔹Hugo Ekitike, Serhou Guirassy, 2 degrees of separation
Dembele dropped in to a pocket of space between the midfield and defence, this was an issue as Van Dijk and Robertson didn't want to follow as 1 was pinned by Barcola, the other didn't want to allow space out wide and in-behind.
This allowed for an easy pass to break the line.
How Luis Enrique's PSG played through Liverpool block.
When Liverpool pressed high with intensity PSG struggled but importantly even the best teams can't relentlessly press all match.
So when Liverpool defended more passively this allowed PSG's fluidity in possession work.
So when Liverpool set off in a block it allowed PSG players to have time and space on the ball which is what they want.
The front 3 showed a variety of movements to create space for themselves and each other while dragged players out of position.
Tried some new activities for a positive transition session this week
Activity 1: A 6 v 3 Transition Rondo to improve decision making in transition
6 attackers keep possession (8 passes = 1 pt)
When defenders win the ball → transition to goal (3pt) or secure possession (1pt)
