Real Madrid better be on the offensive everywhere while also keeping control of the ball as much as possible. They have a rookie GK for today.

Left footers are so much more afraid to use their non-dominant foot than right footers. It's the same in AFL (Australian football). Elliott, Foden, Salah all insist on turning onto their dominant foot when they have a huge opportunity to take a shot with their right, Mahrez is the same.

I wonder why that is

It's a bit weird how little subs Pep used. I guess he knows best on whether someone on the bench can improve the game, but you'd think there are pretty good options available there to bring in some extra oomph & ideas for the last 10 minutes or so.

No he is pissed because the crowd interfered with the refs decisions and Klopp acted awfully on the touchline, the only good thing about that is he finally got a deserved red card and will face a touchline ban. He can't keep going into faces of linesman and 4th officials shouting in their ears it is not a good luck for the game.

Pep also got pelted by the "family section" of Liverpool with coins after the drama when Klopp was going mad and Pep was moaning about his goal being overturned when the whole stadium is on the case of the ref when he is watching the VAR back, all be it the correct decision was made.

van dijk was good in this game but hes been pretty average overall for the last year. i cant say who the best defender is currently, but it definitely cant be van dijk because that would mean the standard of defending in football has gone to complete shit.

Van dijk is the best defender in the world for a while I would say but you can see the effects of his age pulling him back more and more.

Not that it'e authoritative but VVD was the highest ranked defender in the ballon d'or award. Technically Fabinho was one spot ahead of him and has sometimes played as a defender.. only other top 30 pick was Rudiger.

He’s just playing badly, relatively speaking.

He’s a complete Rolls Royce of a defender with physical gifts too. He’s got both the positional nous and reading of the game, along with being no slouch as a specimen. Marshalls those around him pretty well and a great passer too

You’ll get defenders who lack pace, or height but still play at a supreme level. You’ll have speed merchants who maybe lack in the cerebral element, but can make recovery runs to compensate (until their pace goes)

Virgil is kind of the complete package so I don’t see him just falling off if he loses a little pace. He’s not getting burned for pace, most of his errors are just that, errors. The kind he didn’t used to make either, so it’s a little strange and hard to pin down.

I guess the entire Liverpool machine isn’t working at 100% and that will have knock-on effects, probably most notably with the defence and those in it. You’re already playing a frequently absurdly high defensive line, with a midfield that isn’t recovering the ball as quickly, nor covering the gaps behind them quite as well.

It’s pretty commonly accepted this is pushing Trent to his limits and beyond, I could see it affecting the rest of the back line too

Cant decide if United was decent or if it was just the spurs being that terrible.

Btw once again a world of difference in Bruno Fernandes when Ronaldo doesnt play.

Real Madrid being 3rd best club in the world is such a meme right now.

Not inaccurate considering how fluky their CL run was, a hill I shall still die on :p

Although I believe this award is just odd and pointless and is literally just a tally of how many Ballon D’Or nominees you have.
