Post Match EPL Sunderland (H) 1-1 Wednesday 3rd Dec - 20:15

Grav is great when things are all peachy, he had to transform his game in no time and often became the creme de la creme. He hasn't hit those dizzy heights of last season prior to winning the league but he's certainly far from being one of our poorer performers, I still think his Atleti display is the best individual display I've seen of any Liverpool player this season.

But there are times, like the past few months, when you need something different stylistically to get you through when plan A is faultering. Who is our no nonsense shithouse that just wants to tackle anyone in sight and get in the way of anything.
I need to update it for the last few games, but he’s second in the POTS count.
 
We used to talk about Lallana and Firmino leading the press and hunting in packs. Nowadays we have Isak strolling near the defender with the ball, and Wirtz attempting to cut off nearby passing channels alone while 8 other blokes maintain an absurd mid block (haha, I jest - it doesn't block anything).

Our attack looks clueless but I'm more worried about the defensive shape - no defence like that is going to win any title.

That is insulting to every single fan in the ground and watching on tv. Taking the absolute piss out of us.

Pressing comes only when you're out of possession and since that was a ratio of circa 2:1 in our favour you need to multiple our lads' pressures by 2 (or half Sunderland's) to get a truer picture.
