Jurgen Klopp will no doubt be a little worried as his forwards fail again. Especially after another questionable performance in a game his team won. But the German and his players will have the chance to put things right this week. They have the chance to reach the semi-finals of the Carabao Cup and move a step closer to their first domestic win of the season when they face West Ham on Wednesday. And just days later, Liverpool could reclaim top spot when they face Arsenal.
Liverpool should listen to Jurgen KloppLiverpool remain firmly in the title race despite the poor mood at Anfield after a draw with Manchester United. A win against Arsenal this weekend would take Klopp’s side to the top of the table. But Klopp has urged everyone not to focus on the table until April. This sounds like Wise advice. He said the nature of this year’s title race meant there would be plenty of momentum between now and the end of the season. Alisson asks the three “giant” stars for help. Alisson identified the attacking trio as one of the problems against Manchester United, pointing out that poor decisions were often made in the final third. “It’s about throwing the ball to the player in a better position,” he said. “But it’s part of the game. You have to learn as quickly as possible because the season doesn’t give you much time to develop.”The goalkeeper also called for his support in attack, commenting that he has been “fantastic” for the club in recent times.
This support should take the form of creating quality opportunities, but it should also take the form of other objectives. Alisson said someone could help him against Manchester United. We got 12 corners during the game, but that seems like a reasonable score.
Liverpool will need to shake off the disappointment of Sunday’s goalless draw with Manchester United as another busy week approaches. Manchester United clearly missed the chance to return to the top of the Premier League after a disappointing performance against their former rivals at Anfield. Despite United coming into the game under a cloud after suffering numerous injuries and being kicked out of Europe, Liverpool couldn’t do enough to get the win they wanted.
