Manchester City deserve the title…

No fixture highlights this better than our games against Newcastle. Where Liverpool, at full strength and a good run of form, struggled against Newcastle’s well organised defence, City cut it open at will. This has been repeated many times this season.

When Liverpool have come up against opponents who sit deep, don’t venture forward and pack the 6 yard box with bodies we struggle. Most of the time stilll scraping a 1-0 win but struggling.

The reason we struggle, and also why klopp doesn’t like it, is because our tactics rely on fast transitions creating space for our quick attackers or high turnovers catching defences off guard creating space. Teams sitting deep give neither away. Comparing us with city I noticed a few things, we send the ball back to the keeper, a lot. Obviously it’s to draw the other towards our goal and create that space for a fast transition, but when the other team doesnt take the bait…we’re stuck. Relying on Salah to slalom past 4 defenders in the box and score, a tactic which most teams have been able to stop very comfortably since he came back from afcon.

City on the other hand just continuously recycle the ball outside the box
