Well that was a great second half S6 E3
Welcome dear listener to the third episode of the 6th season of the pod. I’m Paul and I am joined by Daz, and Enrique. And we are away for 2024-5 - on the 50th anniversary of Bob Paisley’s first game as Liverpool manager, Reds go to Portman Road and win 2-0. We will go into detail on the game, we will preview Brentford and we will look elsewhere at the weekend and what else is happening in the footy world.
Part One - Ipswich away:
Very pragmatic - play in long if they man mark
Xg - Ipswich, 0.45 total, 0.31 First half, 0.28 set plays.
Liverpool 2.65 with 0.45 in the first half. Touches in opposition box, 50 to 17 (7-7 at the half).
First Half:
Ipswich didn’t lose at home last season, crowd was up for it,
-ve some hesitancy. MacAllister wasn’t really in it.
Lot of soft fouls - foul every 2 minutes? Disruptive.
Won 41% of the duels (54% in the second half)
Formation - definite 4-2-3-1 to start, evolved 3-3-4 at times.
+ve defensive solidity, started to create some chances towards the end of the half
ZERO shots on target (3 total)
Second half
Konate replaces Quansah
Wow, that movement and passing (especially one touch). They found gaps with movement, yet they won some duels…
Goals were beautiful, Salah, Jota, TAA, Szobozlai, Gravenberch, VVD playing a part
Some of the misses were beautiful
Had other chances - Salah, Diaz
game management - no shots from Ipswich after 68 minutes, and we would have scored again.
Part Two - previewing Brentford:
Team selection - same again? Konate?
Brentford - what do we know about them?
Predictions
Part Three - Elsewhere:
(Of the EPL winners of the last 11 seasons only 1 - us - is not under investigation for breaking spending rules)
Transfers:
2 weeks left for our transfers - reflections on our needs and some of the weirdness elsewhere
We will be back next week with a review of the Brentford game. Thanks to Enrique and Daz for joining me, Paul. Thank you dear listener for joining us.
