I’m sure the same old **** gets rolled out about Young and who he will be facing. Despite having good games against Hazard and Salah this season and last. Bit tiresome tbh. Yes he gets caught out but usually not defending 1v1
The Glazers must love some of our fans, still defending Young this season ****** ****.... pockets Salah so well that he lets Mane run off and score. Great.
I believe that a team's foundation starts at the back. One single mistake from a defender can define a result, no matter how great the team plays. Without trustworthing defenders, there's no way to build a competitive team.
Guardiola's reign at England only begun when he bought Ederson, Walker, Mendy and Danilo in a single transfer window.
The difference between last season Liverpool and this current team with Van Dijk and Alisson is brutal.
Mourinho and Van Gaal never got the defenders they wanted. Both of them sacrificed a more attacking style in order to ensure defensive safety.
Let's hope Ole gets his players. And not only CB's: FB is one of the most demanding positions in football. To count only with Shaw, Dalot and Young for an entire season is madness.
Guardiola had complete control of the midfield before that. Only Ederson and Walker were lynch pins. Mendy has been injured for big chunks and Danilo was a failure
..... The difference between last season Liverpool and this current team with Van Dijk and Alisson is brutal .....
Alisson. And a team thats evolved both its style and is another year on in its development and experience from last year to take the next step to a whole other level. Along with better quality depth. But Alisson’s the major difference to the goals against record.
Goalkeeper was always the problem. Not the defending. van Dijk was a part of the run to last years final.
Utd already have the top class goalie.
