The Brilliant Way Arne Slot Changed Liverpool Against Arsenal

Whatever FourFourTwo are paying Adam, it aint enough. This is the best analysis around.

He is great

[@I_am_nobody999]

There's no way Adam comes up with this himself. This is really top level stuff, it's the type of analysis you get from doing your coaching badges and having worked with actual football teams. Adam is an editor, who 2 years ago worked for _What Culture_ as head of content. He's being taught this as he goes along by some very competent tactical minds.

I would have definately watched a 25 minute video showing both points of view: first Arsenal and then Liverpool, in one sitting, rather than watch the first 6 minutes twice. I think it would have worked. Either way, the analysis is fabulous and entertaining!

[@Aircool212]

Again, spot on with singling out Konate.

[@davepannekoek1562]

Nice work Adam. I have been debating with other Reds fans about Sobo for weeks now. They are fixated on him not scoring enough... and while it would be better if he had another 3 or so goals by now, for me he is really the glue in midfield that makes everything tick. You highlighted his impact in the press and how that frees the cf to stay higher, and that has been my argument for about 3 or 4 weeks now.... His running power and presence really impacts thing in indirect ways that dont show up in xG/XA, though he is often a pass or ball retrieval in the chain leading to a chance. And that is why Liverpool bought him - because the mdoel LFC use to analyse a player is based on the impact of every action they take in terms of how it leads to chances being created... Anyway - loved the vid and thanks for the analysis

[@aryantrivedi1144]

Man Konate is one mad mad defender. Absolute colossus

[@marcelrenes2435]

As a Dutchman, I'm am rooting for Liverpool. Bergkamp, one of the best players ever, played for Arsenal but Gakpo, Van Dijk, Gravenberch and Slot are now on the Liverpool team. With Slot at the helm, I think Liverpool will surprise England. This coach/manager is unbelievable! And he has the players to challenge Man City. No matter how much money Man City throws away at players etc. It's about the will to win. I remember when Cruijff was still alive and Real Madrid bought all the best players in the world. He said: they won't win a title. With so many ego's there is no way they can form a team. And he was correct. Barcelona won the title and in Europe Madrid were out in the quarter finals against Munich. You only need one, two or three top players and the rest of the team will conform. And knowing Slot, he will make the other players even better. That's why he's made manager of Liverpool.

Excellent as ever, Adam. You always identify the things the rest of us can't quite put our fingers on, and I'm glad to see Konate get the praise that was deserved. He was outstanding and has been all season by my reckoning!

[@andaredvex]

The first pronounciation of 'Szoboszlai' was the one closest, Adam :) So, in phonetic terms, it would be pronounced roughly as: "SOH-bohs-la-y" (where 'la' and 'y' at the end are like two different syllables, not one merged together). In Hungarian, the stress is always on the first syllable of each word, regardless of its length or structure. So, in the case of "Szoboszlai," the stress falls on the first syllable: SZO-bosz-la-i. We maintain the stress on the first syllable, making the rhythm of the language distinct and even.

Can you do a video on El Clasico and the resurgence of Barcelona? They're FLYING right now. They've scored like a bajillion goals in the last 5 games.

[@Golf-R00LS-73]

I thought the game was very even overall. I don't pay any attention to xG as it often never reflects what your eyes see which is most important. I'm also glad to see you didn't go down the 'depleted' arsenal narrative, unless your other video goes on about that. Arsenal were missing 3 x regular first teamers....Odegard, Saliba & Calafiori. Two of those were injuries and the other was suspension. Liverpool were missing more regular first teamers including the best goalie in the world. The result in the end looked totally fair to me and for both teams, move on and win the other games to keep Shitty in their sights.

[@Seshbethinja]

A masterclass, Adam. Bravo!

[@steveguthrie2550]

I absolutely love these videos. I’m a very casual Arsenal fan so I thought two dropped points was a poor result. This analysis just tells you it wasn’t all bad and there are small battles happening without me even knowing. I love the explanation of it all.

[@SamSzulman]

Totally agree with you Adam as the triple change altered the game for Liverpool. I want to give a special mention for Tsimikas who looked as assured as I have ever seen him & controlled the left side far better than Andy had. At the final whistle I thought Konate was my man of the match. How good must you be to consistanly shade VVD?

[@Alexand3ry]

I watched both, and the quality of the videos is the top-notch stuff we keep coming back for. I'm not convinced the 2-video experiment worked, though... mostly because they shared so much material. There were really just a couple of different points each time (L's tactics; A's tactics; why L should be happy; why A should be happy), and those could have been sections within a single video with less duplication. Alternatively, you could have had different intros and outros. Totally happy to watch an experiment, just I'm not convinced it beat a single video. If you repeat this - video sections would be very very useful in skipping to the 'new stuff'.

[@davepannekoek1562]

It is better for Adams engagement metrics though - which is fine by me as his channel and the analysis deserves max engagement and more views...

There’s a fair bit of repetition between these two videos, so maybe if you do this again you could have ‘branching path’ approach.

[@EricSmith-km1jb]

This is why I've been crying out for a winger like Sadio to replace Diaz who is bang average. Partey had him in his pocket to such an extent, he was happy to invert. Arsenal were comfortable enough in the knowledge Diaz will just go round in circles like a headless chicken on the byline like he always does. He has zero direct ball carrying ability like Sadio had. A world class winger in that position and Partey gets cooked, and the overload in midfield doesn't happen. Tell this to the smug "top reds" on RAWK who have their tongues firmly up "Lucho's" butthole and you'll be hounded off.

Awesome video, but with Darwin dropping back I'm starting to think this is an intentional tactic used by Arne. We aren't looking for him to be our out ball the last three games he's been on the pitch for a prolonged period of time. I could be off if data shows differently, but he's clearly not looking to shoot given he hasn't had one shot attempt in those three matches. And also could be why it's taken so long for Arne to put him in the XI, with a Jota injury finally forcing his hand a bit.

Once ARS defensive backline was so changed, there shouldve been more throttle and risk taken to get more than just the equalizer.
