My thoughts on today's game we're that Mourinho got the tactics right and we 3nded up a little unlucky not to get something out of that game. The best way to play Liverpool is to stay in the game for 60 minutes and then attack when they have run themselves out.
I thought our shape was right with Sanchez and Tanganga clearly detailed to track Salad and Man's runs and Rose and Aurier detailed to defend against TAA and Robertson.
I thought the best player on the pitch was probably Wjnaldum. He kept on creating overloads out wide that Winks and Eriksen didn't deal with and also snuffed out a lot of our play on the rare occasions when we moved the ball forward.
I thought Moura worked tirelessly and made the most of the scraps he was fwedingboff in the first half. I thought out three defenders all played really well, very disciplined in their positioning. Aurier I thought also was very good, defending when necessary and providing width in attack.
I thought Rose was terrible, There is no way that Sessegnon could've done any worse than that. He was sloppy and slow. Eriksen also looked like he was playing to avoid injury, but still probably had more effect on the game than Winks who I just thinking good enough for this level... there was an occasion about 14 minutes in when the ball broke to Winks and he could've put Son in behind Liverpool's defence with an easy first time pass, he took a bad touch, got it caught under his feet and then underhit a pass to their sole defender. Those are key moments in games and I'm confident that NDombele would've played a perfectly weighted pass to put Son running in on goal.
Surely now Lo Celso plays every game instead of Eriksen (even If he stays) and Sessegnon same for Rose.
I saw a reasonable amount of promise today and with a bit of luck we could've got a result. More of that from now on minus a couple of players who's hearts aren't in it and we'll be decent.
