I've got so many thoughts and questions. But I think Carra summed it up best, and this was after the first game -
We're playing basketball.

Faith, we're not even playing basketball IMO cos even in that sport, you are actually allowed to press the other team (half/ full court press) and play good rotational defense. LFC aren't even doing any of that cos we don't know how to attack, press nor defend. So, it's actually worse than playing basketball.

Oli - was thinking about deeper about this. modern basketball is basically positionless. In that second half, especially as we made the changes where we wound up with Jones and Wirtz at CM, it felt exactly like modern basketball. positionless. win the ball in transition and just get the ball up the pitch, players fill lanes to attack as opposed to setting up any kind of structure.
