Liverpool Press

All teams of superior quality play in a similar fashion with an intense press and work ethic. Barcelona did this for years and blew everyone away. That’s what the convict is trying at the piggery and on the evidence of last night is partly successful although the rattlers are unable to sustain this for long periods. The passive and defensive posture of Rangers made this all to easy for Liverpool to maintain this throughout the game. Only when we went for it in the last 10 did it look competitive.
 
Liverpool don't need to watch anyone. They scouted us and know enough about how slow we move the ball. They have their own way of playing and they simply imposed themselves. This was not about copying any other team. This was about exploiting obvious weaknesses in our game in recent times.

We miss Bassey, Aribo and an in-form Kamara. Tav is carrying an injury as far as I am concerned. We have lost our energy. Nothing to do with flangeball FFS.
 
Mcgregor had a pass success of about 38%

He made unbelievable saves but his passing and kicking hampers us when we sit deep.

It's unsustainable to sit deep with no pace and a keeper that isn't comfortable on the ball.
 
Aye Klopp n Liverpool really learned from that lot haha. Away n throw shite at the moon man, jeez!
 
Haha.

I can just imagine Klopp sitting down with Salah, Thiago, Diaz et al. to brainstorm a masterplan on how to thwart our swashbuckling style of play.
 
The Liverpool players probably knew next to nothing about our players before the game. And they didn't need to.
