[Music] [Music] and like you probably saw today uh uh I only had five Defenders available so to win something in the end that’s such such a long way to go and so many challenges you have toh take but it’s good that we are capable of winning against these teams in our own style yeah then probably what we all saw uh is that being only one nil up at halftime we would have loved to see a bigger margin but I’ve said it in many interviews already I’ve watched this game so many times uh uh if I had to play myself I watched it back so I was always made sure I could watch this game and it’s all been always been great games so maybe it’s for the fans that were neutral they liked it that that it stayed one nil and it was tight till the end went off after 70 minutes he was able to play longer he played a very good game defended really well again uh and and was a major threat in attch because I think he was the one that that played the ball towards Mo which led to the one nil uh but knowing that we play Newcastle Wednesday and Saturday at the mercy side derby with only five available we have to take care of them and that’s why I was so pleasing to see that the ones that came in Joe and Jerel did so well even Jerel on on unfamiliar position for him the league is not decided in in November or or December last season they were eight points uh behind Arsenal I think somewhere in February so uh no one has to feel empathy or sorry uh for B maybe for other managers but not for Pep he’s won so many things and he will be able to bring City back um and they’re actually still in top of the table but uh uh uh even more than they are now earling Holland was tasked by gordola to make those penetrating runs it was R Dyke who was supposed to take care of him but it was Liverpool’s off the- ball formation that did the trick and that’s what we’re mainly going to be looking at in this video Liverpool set up in a 42 31 so to pep guardiola’s team as we can see here Liverpool set up in a 424 without the ball it was a mid block 424 rather than a really high press 424 although they did High Press at times but what they wanted to do was win the ball in the middle of the pitch and then because City plays a high line they wanted to attack the spaces in behind and at times it also became a 42 31 depending on where City had the ball [Music] what city did was they set up in a 42 31 they tried to have possession high up the pitch but it wasn’t really possible how they created the overloads in the Midfield was that it was sometimes Holland dropping deep or one of the forwards so it was basically a false n roll and then they had like three players up front so that’s the way they wanted to attack but it wasn’t really working in the first half especially so basically the way slot presses is conservative because he has this extra man Advantage at the back of the pitch and because he wants to stop those counterattacks so because of that he has a oneman disadvantage in pressing when Liverpool did press High one of the fullbacks would go and press up high [Music] what slot knew was that if you pressed aggressively right off the bat you just create space behind your press and the very good teams like City who are very good with the ball they would be able to exploit that space so the trick here was to limiting the intensity and just not press that high the pressing was just in moments where everything was in Liverpool’s favor whenever Liverpool pressed High there were usually good triggers where the Press happened with intensity and those were mainly backward passes or city received the ball with their back towards the goal basically they wanted to reduce that space and time in the middle of the pitch in the first half Liverpool had 10 shots to City’s won in the second half however the game did change and Man City pushed Liverpool back the shots ended 8 to7 for Liverpool was it Liverpool deliberately stepping back or was it man city pushing them back well here’s what slot had to say in the second half City had a little bit more possession was that a tactic from you to almost sit back and play a little bit more Counterattack or is that just because they’re a quality team and you have to suffer at certain periods yeah the last thing so I would have done the same as the first half but yeah you face a team that has so much quality and um I think after we made the substitution again when Darwin came in we had that same aggression again and and and maybe the legs again to press them a bit higher uh but yeah it it also comes down to the quality of city it’s impossible to keep them away from your 18 yard box for 19 minutes but it was a good thing to see if they were in round 18 yard box that we were still there to defend congratulate Liverpool deserved the the victory the first 50 20 minutes wasn’t stoppable so we were lucky deserve the goal and after we took the game in the way the circumstances that we have because the physicality the graen work as bosai or mallister or or the fullbacks or wherever they are you they are stronger than us we need a a game more control we we struggled to take it in the first minutes and I say thank you so many players playing the position like Bernardo Manu Kani playing the position that they are not used to and in anfield in the moment that they have because they won all the games in the Premier in the Champions League and he just lost one game and uh but after I think we took the game second half we who we are and after we concede in the middle one chances to lose like could the score in the transition is difficult but they push you a lot and they can they can do it with a with a press for for this marbles Stadium but uh yeah I think second half in the last 20 minutes the first half was was good without much threat I would say they are strong in B boxes that we are not in at the moment but yeah reset and feeling that we will start from here this season I know for some people don’t like the lineups but uh we cannot compete against Liverpool not just Liverpool many many other clubs a transitional team so I love Wingers but I want a more control because we know when they lose immediately they contact with Salah with salai or Luiz or gapco and afterno yet Darwin so they are so fast faster quicker stronger than us in in in that position want a game like bring it like it happened in the last 50 20 minutes of the first half in the second half until in the last 5020 Bernardo lose a ball in the middle Salah have a big chance and after that the penalty and defensively we are not enough solid right now for not not today the the few games they have to recover especially be solid behind you know because at the end Kevin has the chance you know to equalize it always 01 maybe should not happen with Z1 the action but um yeah except the reality what it is and and uh yeah recover and nothing Forest
