There’s a lot to say about Liverpool’s 4-0 loss to Manchester Metropolis, and never very a lot of it’s constructive. The 4-0 defeat is the worst loss underneath Arne Slot, and after the primary half an hour, the protection seemed misplaced. Right here is the sad postmortem from the Etihad.
Have Liverpool Given Up?
The American commentary group stated Liverpool gave up after Metropolis’s third objective of the match, and it seemed prefer it. Virgil van Dijk was snapping at teammates to cowl his personal poor play, and different defenders left large gaps for Metropolis to take advantage of. Mohamed Salah is a shell of himself, as seen by the PK miss and different probabilities. Throughout, it’s not search for the membership that has now misplaced to Metropolis 3 times in the identical season for the primary time since 1935.
Stats Don’t Inform The Story
If you happen to solely seemed on the stats, you’d by no means be capable to inform that Metropolis received 4-0. The Reds truly led possession 51-49 whereas pictures had been tied 11-11. Metropolis held a slight 7-5 lead in pictures on objective, nevertheless it’s not that a lot of a discrepancy. The distinction is that Liverpool overcomplicated their probabilities within the first half. If they simply take pictures on within the first half-hour, they’re seemingly up 2-0. As a substitute, they performed the ball throughout the field with no person on the opposite finish. In the event that they knock simply a kind of residence, it’s a distinct ballgame.
Is Slot To Blame?
I’ve supported Slot via the highs and lows this season, however after this efficiency, he wants to depart at season’s finish. I stated in my preview that he wanted to play Andy Robertson at left again and Dominik Szoboszlai on the appropriate to chop off the availability traces to Haaland. He didn’t, and look what occurred. Haaland had a hat trick.
I point out this to not brag on myself however to say if I can see it as a easy author with no teaching expertise, certainly Slot can even, and if he can’t, then it’s time to maneuver on. Liverpool followers on the match actually let their voices be heard as they had been chanting Steven Gerrard’s title as a possible substitute for Slot.
