What a weird game of football.
Much better control, yet some basics missing.
Midfield empty in some counter situations for Villa to play the long ball and trouble us, yet Emery chose to play out from the back.
Arne Slot is having a terrible second season at Liverpool so far. No clear style of play, losing second balls, conceding from defensive set pieces, and showing favoritism toward certain out-of-form players over those in form — nothing is going his way. A “transitional” period was always going to happen when integrating so many new players into the squad, but that period will just drag on until he lets his best players play together and build some chemistry.
Today is the day i realise, how emotionally connected we are, to footballers.
We talk about them almost daily, call them by their home names too.
Feels like one of our own.
