Liverpool's early defeats ruined a good end to the season
All members of Liverpool Football Club will be delighted to see the return of the 2022/23 season after a rather odd year on Merseyside.
After finishing within two games with an unprecedented four-time record last season, Liverpool need to start this season and at least challenge some of the silver trophies that fought on all four fronts last season. .
What happened was a complete collapse of consistency as Liverpool struggled throughout the season, performing at their usual 100 mph pace for a week and then stalling a week later. .
This season has also revealed what some savvy Liverpool fans have always preached - alarming anxieties in midfield and the club's desperate need to invest in the transfer market. , both of which have significantly caught up with the team this year.
Jurgen Klopp and his behind-the-scenes team stabilized the ship for the remaining ten games with their tactical adjustment to Trent Alexander-Arnold and narrowly secured a Champions League spot, but in the end it was too little, too late. A great summer is coming for Liverpool and all eyes will be on them during the transfer window to see which new faces will start a new era at Anfield.
But where have things gone wrong with Liverpool this season?
Lack of force in midfield
The pre-season brought some optimism as the club's £85m new striker Darwin Nunez broke the barrier he was receiving by scoring four goals against RB Leipzig in a single match. possession and a goal from the bench against Manchester City in the Community Shield final.
Nunez is seen as an obvious solution to Sadio Mane's departure from Bayern Munich, but more rational Liverpool fans are still clamoring for the addition of a clearly aging midfielder.
Liverpool's signing of Thiago from Bayern in 2020 was and still is the club's latest addition to the midfield - unless of course you take into account Arthur Melo's disastrous move from Juventus when he only played 13 minutes for the club. With Thiago, Naby Keita and Alex-Oxlade Chamberlian plagued with injury problems, Liverpool find Fabinho, James Milner, Jordan Henderson and youngsters Harvey Elliot and Fabio Carvalho in the pre-season senior midfield position. .
After Liverpool's 1-2 loss to Manchester United at Old Trafford, Klopp said: "As a coach, of course I want more players. But that's all I can say. We are always there. working to solve that problem, but if we can do something about it, I don't know. The doubt in Klopp's words at the time suggested some insight into the relationship the German had with the owner. FSG has not backed Klopp in the past and the same can happen this season.
The Liverpool midfielder went from steel gates to dilapidated fences and ended up starring in the tragedy the club had to go through.
Three games and two points for Liverpool were followed by Bournemouth's 9-0 destruction at Anfield. The result was initially seen as a turning point, but it was a sign of how unsettled Liverpool's form was going to be for all to see. One aspect of the team that remains consistent is inconsistency.
After the match against Bournemouth, Liverpool suffered a blow - losing 1-4 to Napoli in the Champions League.
A 3–3 draw with Brighton and a 3–2 loss to Arsenal were quickly rectified with a 1–0 win over Manchester City, but two weeks later they suffered defeats to Nottingham Forest and Leeds.
Winning Napoli, Tottenham and Southampton once again shows that Liverpool are struggling slowly .
