Liverpool defence still suspect but attacking returns continue to flow

LIVERPOOL 2-1 BRIGHTON AND HOVE ALBION

  • Goals: Virgil van Dijk (£6.4m) x2 | Lewis Dunk (£4.6m)
  • Assists: Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) x2 | Leandro Trossard (£5.8m)
  • Red cards: Alisson (£6.0m)
  • Bonus: van Dijk x3, Alexander-Arnold x2, Dunk x1

Two early headers from Virgil van Dijk (£6.4m) were all Liverpool needed to extend their lead atop the Premier League to 11 points, both set up by Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) crosses from dead-ball situations.

However, the Anfield crowd had to drag their team over the line thanks to a red card for goalkeeper Alisson (£6.0m) that led to Lewis Dunk’s (£4.6m) consolation goal for Brighton and Hove Albion.

For all the attacking flair and assist potential of full-backs Alexander Arnold and Andrew Robertson (£7.0m), it’s van Dijk who scores most of all three. Last season his four goals comfortably exceeded their combined one, whilst today’s brace adds to his opening-day strike against Norwich.

The 6ft 4in centre-back found himself in enough space to head home a fairly central Alexander-Arnold free-kick after 18 minutes, rising above Adam Webster (£4.4m) to loop over Matthew Ryan (£4.7m). Then, six minutes later, the same combination made it 2-0 from a corner.

In the first half, Jurgen Klopp’s side were easy on the eye, playing with the verve and confidence of a team that knew they were about to go 11 points clear of Man City, after the champions could only draw 2-2 at Newcastle at lunchtime.

The Liverpool boss said of his side’s display:

We would have loved if we would have finished one more, two more, more often and it looks much more comfortable, but that’s our situation. I don’t want to change it, it’s like it is. There will be days when we will score from situations like that and will probably not use our set-pieces, that’s how it is. But you have to score goals and we did that often enough to win the game and that’s good.

Mohamed Salah (£12.2m) and Sadio Mane (£12.2m) had a fruitless afternoon but it wasn’t for a lack of trying in the latter’s case.

Ryan’s fine save from a Roberto Firmino (£9.4m) shot in the 16th minute denied the Senegalese winger an assist, while the in-form premium midfielder could have been on the scoresheet himself soon after when being thwarted by the busy Australian.

Mane also found himself in space around the penalty spot on the hour-mark but couldn’t get good contact and the chance went begging.

Salah returned to the line-up after his Gameweek 13 benching but made very little impact apart from hitting the side-netting in the 12th minute. He was replaced by Adam Lallana (£5.8m) in the 69th minute, although the Egyptian preserved a clean sheet point to get the last laugh over Mane owners.

While Salah’s recent struggles with an ankle injury are off-putting, he and Mane remain enticing options for the next three Gameweeks and – if it wasn’t for the Club World Cup postponing their Gameweek 18 fixture – there would even be an argument for owning both against Everton (h), Bournemouth (a) and Watford (h).

The absence of Fabinho (£5.5m), meanwhile, saw Jordan Henderson (£5.4m) resume the ‘number six’ role that he had occupied before his recent reinvention as a right-sided central midfielder.

Klopp said:

We had to replace Fabinho today which is a tough one because it’s like we were really used to these things without really thinking about it. Hendo played a sensational game in that position together with Gini and Ox. It was a really good performance but we had to work really hard. And what I liked most, that the boys were ready to do that.

Liverpool looked set to finally keep their first clean sheet in seven games and only their third of the season. The second half had been a dull affair, with the Reds conserving their energy knowing that they have ten games to come in a gruelling December.

Whilst the streak of 18 home games where either Salah, Mane or Firmino had scored was about to end, at least they were cruising to a relaxing victory.

Then goalkeeper Alisson was sent off for a deliberate handball outside of his area and everything quickly changed. A long Brighton ball over the home defence set free Leandro Trossard (£5.8m), who poked the ball up onto the advancing stopper’s hands for a straight red card.

On came Adrian (£4.2m) for Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (£6.2m) and the reserve Liverpool custodian was instantly picking the ball out of the net after Dunk – once getting the nod to take the kick early – casually passed the resulting free-kick into the corner.

Klopp said of Alisson’s dismissal:

Of course, life became more complicated with the red card and the change we had to make. We had to bring on a frozen goalkeeper pretty much! Everybody sitting here is probably not really warm yet, but imagine you go there in shorts, a really thin shirt and some gloves which are not made for keeping you warm.

Some people let the free-kick happen like that and then you look a little bit silly in that moment, but that’s what you have to accept.

We kept on fighting and Adrian especially helped us a lot with two really, really good saves and crosses he caught and stuff like this.

Suddenly things got nervy for the home side when former Huddersfield midfielder Aaron Mooy (£4.8m) forced Adrian into a low stop. Two minutes later, the substitute spilled a comfortable save right at the feet of substitute Neal Maupay (£5.9m). The Reds held on to make it 13 wins from 14 league matches but those looking for reassurance that Klopp’s troops are tightening up at the back wouldn’t have been given any indication of that on Saturday.

Alisson will be suspended for Wednesday’s Merseyside derby with Everton, although Liverpool’s only two clean sheets of the season did come under his deputy’s watch.

Truth be told, there were still some hairy moments for Liverpool’s defence even before the red card. Alisson made a good save from Davy Propper (£4.9m) in the first half, shortly followed by a Dunk sitter where the centre-back scuffed a shot wide with his knee.

Dunk then narrowly headed wide a Pascal Gross (£6.4m) corner in the 54th minute, before a Martin Montoya (£4.5m) cross was superbly controlled and shot by Aaron Connolly (£4.7m) eight minutes later.

The goalscorer made some crucial contributions at the other end, firstly blocking an Oxlade-Chamberlain effort after a superb run and pull-back from Robertson. Just before the Alisson incident, Dunk got in the way of a shot that followed Alexander-Arnold’s burst into the box.

Graham Potter said of the Seagulls’ efforts:

We put a lot into the game and played with a lot of courage. We weren’t quite as aggressive as we needed to be in the first 20 minutes, so that’s a learning point for us, but we have a really good account of ourselves against a top team.

Potter again went with a four-man backline this weekend and opted for 19-year-old Connolly over Maupay up front, despite the latter’s 19 goal attempts only being bettered by Raul Jimenez (£7.6m) over the last six Gameweeks. As promising as those numbers sound ahead of a run of fixtures against Wolves (h), Crystal Palace (a) and Sheffield United (h), only one of those 19 shots resulted in a goal.

Liverpool XI (4-3-3): Alisson; Alexander-Arnold, Lovren, van Dijk, Robertson; Henderson, Wijnaldum, Oxlade-Chamberlain (Adrian 78’); Salah (Lallana 69’), Firmino (Origi 76’), Mane.

Brighton and Hove Albion XI (4-5-1): Ryan; Montoya (Alzate 69’), Webster, Dunk, Burn; Gross, Bissouma (Trossard 69’), Stephens, Propper, Mooy; Connolly (Maupay 76’).

    Any idea about what is the score to qualify for the members cup?

      A bit early. In the 50s somewhere.

        Ok. Thanks

  2. makaveli

    4 years, 3 months ago

    can anyone help clear something up for me;
    I have Allison on my team....why wasn't he given clean sheet points?
    He was played 75 mins = 2 points, Cleansheet (up til that point) = 4,
    Red carded = -3, so he should have 3 points, but instead he gets -1.

    It was only after Adrian came on that Pool conceded. Any thoughts?

    1. Warby84
      • 8 Years
      4 years, 3 months ago

      He got sent off

    2. AndyCook
        4 years, 3 months ago

        Goals after a red card still count because it is considered that the red card contributed to the outcome and you shouldn’t be protected from that

        1. AndyCook
            4 years, 3 months ago

            From the rules:
            Red Cards

            If a player receives a red card, they will continue to be penalised for goals conceded by their team.

            Assuming Tammy is fit, would you bench boost this? It's got to be rare so many players have good home games and have 15 likely to play?

              There will be rotation. Guessing that rotation accurately is the difficult part.

                • 8 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Who would you bench then? Thinking Kelly Ayew and Tomori?

                1. AndyCook
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Yeah, bench boost not bad - I actually like it outside a double but a poor second keeper option puts me off a touch

                Bloody hell. On the exact cut off score last week and 41 this week. Living dangerously!

              Mount + Tammy --> Zaha + Rashford (-4)

              Worth it? Not sure the status of Tammy still and would likely keep if fit, but price drops being hard to swallow

              1. Twisted Saltergater
                • 14 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Never worth a -4 with Chelsea at home.

              KdB owners. Is he untouchable in your squad are you considering selling?

              As a non-owner, I worry about him each GW but he's not quite doing enough to make him an essential transfer in. Am I right to ignore him with the Manchester derby around the corner?

                • 7 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Am not planning on selling but cam see him getting rotated more the further City drop out of the title race.

                1. Twisted Saltergater
                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  This is my concern too. Pep more likely to field his strongest 11 in the CL games so that may harm De Bruyne's returns in the Prem.

                I just brought him in (For Martial) hard to watch City games without him

                • 8 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                He will not be leaving my squad. Looks their best player by a mile and having so much of the ball. Unlucky to not have had more points up to now.

                  exactly. KdB is a big game player so he's a captain option in that game, imo.

                Yes. He's in my team unless he gets injured long-term.

                Sold his last GW for Son, i know what you mean, solid asset to have no doubt about it, but JUst feel there's better option s at current with City not exactly leathering teams and looking a bit out of sorts. Going City'less doesn't bother me much with the team i now have.

                • 11 Years
                4 years, 3 months ago

                Had him from the start. Going nowhere unless badly injured.

                Wouldn't buy him now though

                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  I know that attacking coverage is largely a myth but having clawed my way back into ML contention, I feel very vulnerable not having KdB or Sterling.

                  Sterling looks like he needs a break so I'm considering Jesus and KdB. Plenty of funds to go 'round.

                4 years, 3 months ago

                Not doing enough? Really? 93 points, overall 3rd highest scoring player of the game so far....

                1. Salah’s Sonnet
                  • 12 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  that was to begin with, looking at ti now he's a don't buy don't seel type of thing.

                  1. El Presidente
                    • 4 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Well, yes, if you are looking at him NOW I agree with you. But I have him since the start back when his cost was 9.5 and selling is not really good business. City is not flying and there is that risk of shifting priorities to CL, but still a great asset. I think you have to have one of KDB or Sterling. The double up looks shaky atm, but one of them for sure...

                      tbf, he has 15-20 mins in a game where he's really threatening and looks like he can haul, then the other 70 mins he's hanging back outside the box. I wonder if Pep's asked him to provide more defensive cover due to their CB's issues, or whether he's playing within himself slightly after his injury.

                He's pretty untouchable in my squad. Bought him at 9.5m and I will almost certainly want him back at some point. Put up some really good numbers this weekend too.

                  Hey Camzy. Glad I didn't do Aubameyang to Kane 😉

                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  At his price he is potentially on the chopping block for me, lucky to have scored a goal in each of the last two weeks

                  1. Salah’s Sonnet
                    • 12 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    This, it's like people don't realise it was a long range shot for nothing last game.

                    Who would you need to step up for you to make the transfer? My squad keeps delivering but I'm wondering when the 7m players are going to dry up. There's a few teams in my ML still with KdB and Sterling and they've done alright this week.

                • Tempestic
                  • 5 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  Had him since gw1 and said to myself I'd keep him all season at that value. Looking good so far.

                Bench 1:

                Soy (WAT)
                Ali (mun)

                1. Twisted Saltergater
                  • 14 Years
                  4 years, 3 months ago

                  The defender, but I'd try to play both.

                  1. simong1
                    • 5 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Tough with this squad! Benching Soy the best idea still?

                    Pope
                    TAA, Robbo, Lund
                    Ali, Mane, Maddison, KDB
                    Jimenez, Vardy, Ings

                    Soy, Willems, Dendocker

                    1. Twisted Saltergater
                      • 14 Years
                      4 years, 3 months ago

                      yeah, so tough. Soyuncu then!

                    2. AndyCook
                        4 years, 3 months ago

                        Yeah Söyüncü. Would bench Maddison over Alli too

                  Mount owners, one final week or selling? Likely to drop today or tomorrow.

                  1. Twisted Saltergater
                    • 14 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Can afford another 0.1m drop so will keep. It never seems to pay off selling an attacking player before a home game.

                    1. goriuanx
                      • 13 Years
                      4 years, 3 months ago

                      Same here. He's going after the Villa game irrespective of his score.

                    2. Salah’s Sonnet
                      • 12 Years
                      4 years, 3 months ago

                      is he attacking though?

                    Used my FT on Barnes > Alli

                    So one more week with Chelski at home this week.

                    I'm really torn. Had my mind on selling him to get KDB back , but if Tammy is out I'll be without Chelsea attack for AVL. And the likely 0.2 seing forcing my hand tonight. God I hate those price changes...

                  Whom would you rather have. Alli or Jimenez?

                  1. Twisted Saltergater
                    • 14 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    Personally Alli, but Jimenez is returning points every week.

                    1. FPL Daniel
                      • 14 Years
                      4 years, 3 months ago

                      if you don't captain Alli then Jimmy

                    • 9 Years

                    Just don’t trust Ali

                  Holding Mount for another game (have Pulisic). Option is to spend FT for Grealish, Zaha or JWP. What would you do?

                    Stick with vardy for the time being. Plenty of games still to come to captain a differential option. Derby difficult to predict

                    1. Blueberg
                      • 8 Years
                      4 years, 3 months ago

                      I just think Everton will be demoralised after tonight, put a lot of effort in and lostblast minute. Plus only 3 days til the derby.

                      1. Salah’s Sonnet
                        • 12 Years
                        4 years, 3 months ago

                        always a tight game between them two, not worth the risk imo

                  4. waldo666
                    • 13 Years
                    4 years, 3 months ago

                    I did that this week, didn't work out so great. I've just about lost all confidence in Salah with the armband tbh and would likely sell this week if not for other priorities.

                    1. Blueberg
                      • 8 Years
                      4 years, 3 months ago

                      Might come back with a point to prove though after last game. Also quite well rested compared to the rest of the team. Everton allowing a lot of touches in the box tonight, can see them giving away a penalty at pool. Hopefully Milner not on the pitch.

                      1. Salah’s Sonnet
                        • 12 Years
                        4 years, 3 months ago

                        It's just hope, he's not sharp and he's not with it.

                  Who would you bench out of:

                  1) Lundstram (NEW)
                  2) Tomori (AVL)
                  3) Soyuncu (WAT)

                  I'm thinking maybe 2.

                      Cheers lads, Chelsea not too solid at the back and Villa good going forward. Whatever I do I've got a decent 1st sub, possible rotation with games coming thick and fast.

                  Is Perez nailed to start? Looked good to me, he was like second striker.

                    Iheanacho should be knocking on the door, but yeah he is fairly nailed.

                    Happy to have him as my 8th attacker at his price for Leicester's next 3. Then he'll probably become Grealish.

                    Picked him over Maddison and Tieleman's because he plays quite close to Vardy, and a lot of Leicester attacks come down the right. Coming off after 60 mins is a little annoying but he's a good pick around 6m.

                  The goals for column in PL table is interesting reading

                  City 39 goal

                  KdB central to everything good.

                  (The goals against is pretty close too)
