Brentford 1 Liverpool 4 – Bees Breakdown’s Tactical Breakdown
Beesotted contributors The Gowler and Paul Kowalczyk (@BeesBreakdown) give us the tactical and statistical lowdown of Brentford?s loss against Liverpool.
Jurgen Klopp?s Liverpool side came out in a 4-3-3, although a fluid formation, shifting to somewhat of a 3-5-2 when in possession. Konaté and van Dijk started as the centrebacks with Robertson and Bradley the fullbacks. Jones, Endo, and Mac Allister were the midfielders, while Diaz, Nunez and Jota made up the front line. Liverpool missed some players due to injury including, Alisson, Thiago, and Alexander-Arnold, but Liverpool?s depth kept a strong bench that consisted of Salah, Gakpo, and Gravenberch.
Thomas Frank?s side only had one change from the last match, with Pinnock picking up an ankle injury. Ajer slid into his role, while Ben Mee and Collins joined him on the backline. Roerslev and Reguilon deployed as the wingbacks again, supporting Jensen, Nørgaard, and Janelt in midfield. Toney and Maupay started up top as the Bees looked to get a result against  top of the league Liverpool. 3rd Minute
