Liverpool (H) 16/9: Build-Up & Match Thread

[WsWolf]

Literally any change would’ve been good. It was clear after 55’ that Liverpool’s change in shape had nullified most of our threat going forward. It also upended our midfield dominance.

Rather than adjust our own shape in any way to compensate, we continued exactly as we had been, getting pressed deeper and deeper until eventually Kilman got exposed.

Hell, even when Boubacar came on, he was playing where JRB did. You don’t necessarily need to make a sub to make a tweak, yet we just carried on as if the ship wasn’t sinking.

Adjust our shape?

Liverpool put 4 strikers pushed right up and then took advantage of a knackered hwang not tracking. He brought Doherty on (who's shit, out of position but still probably the best option which says enough about the rest of them.) Which did stop that happening.
