When the Reds going marching in S5 E18
It’s December 7th and we are in the middle of an intense period. Welcome to the latest edition of our show. I’m Paul and I am joined by Daz and Sean. We’ll talk about LASK, the crazy 4-3 at home to Fulham, solid away performance at new manager boosted Sheffield United, we will look ahead to Palace away and maybe touch on USG and the possible team selection.
Part One - let’s start with last week:
Few words on 4-0 against LASK of Linz. Goals by Gakpo (2), Diaz and Salah (his 199th for Liverpool). Their fans were spectacular
Let’s dwell on the Fulham game - xG 2.7 to 1.5
Were Fulham difficult or did we make it easy for them? 1-1, 2-2, 2-3. Neil Atkinson said the game was defined by what Fulham did (4-3-2-1 without the ball, asymmetric with Paulinho, Jimenez and Wilson in different positions).
Trent was on, best Tsimikas performance (or did Fulham leave him alone)? Fulham attacked Virgil interestingly - he wasn’t have any of it - won 7 of 10 duels.
Lot of people seemed a little off (e.g. Darwin, Gravenberch, Szobozlai?). Kelleher? Diaz - did he lose his pace with the injury?
Great goals - favorite? ‘Where’s your famous atmosphere?’
Title winning teams win games like this? Surely depends on what happens next
Joel Matip ACL
Part Two - Sheffield United (A) looking for a new manager bounce:
Having read about their performance at Burnley, there was definitely something different here - snapping into tackles, very (overly) aggressive, press numbers are up, pass completion is 47% (didn’t want the ball).
Were we too passive last night - xG 1.80 to 0.80? Team set up not to concede?
Salah - the 200th goal preying on him?
Endo, Joe Gomez, Szobozlai better performance? Kelleher save.
Fouls around the goals? Trent’s response to you’re just a shit Kyle Walker.
2 points behind Arsenal, 4 points ahead of City and 7 points beyond 5th place
We will be back after the Palace/USG games. Thanks to Sean and Daz. And thank you dear listener for joining us.
