Been busy all weekend so haven't gotten to actually watch anything, but I saw the highlights of the Liverpool match. Looks like they played well overall, Lucas should have been sent off, and Costa is an actual animal that needs a long ban to think about himself.
Played very good football outside that first 5 minute. Really there they were lulled into a trap by Chelsea after keeping the ball the first 2 minutes... Chelsea won the ball, pushed and scored...then nearly again.
Team is certainly different with Klopp. But more organized in the press and more confident in defending.
Chelsea set up was surprising, and maybe NJ can add a bit more. They sat way off Liverpool (not afraid of the attacking options, I get that) and played the counter. Got them a good start, but I felt like they let Liverpool get comfortable again instead of going at them. Played almost like they were the away team.
Interesting few weeks ahead for both clubs.
And no denying Arsenal at the moment.
