The German coach's work has left several doubts in recent days

Liverpool FC is a great and historic team on a world level, which over the years has been characterised by a unique style of play, with top players and coaches who have been able to take advantage of their quality to win titles. Today that style of play has become predictable for opponents, who play the Merseyside giants to death in every game.

For example, in recent words of Italian coach Carlo Ancelotti, who referred to Liverpool as an easy team to decipher, this in relation to the last final of the UEFA Champions League 21/22, where Real Madrid won their thirteenth European title by beating the Reds, who could not take revenge for the final lost in 2018 against them, when they lost 3-1 with the monumental errors of Loris Karius.

The former AS Roma player, too, remarked on the fortune his side found on the pitch on that May night at the Stade de France. "Liverpool have a very clear identity and we were able to prepare the way we did that night," said Carlo Ancelotti, who continued to refer to the English giants with respect and admiration, believing that those six Champions League wins are no fluke.

In different Reds fan forums, the style of play that coach Jürgen Klopp has managed since his arrival at Anfield in 2016 has been questioned, where although it has worked for the great harvest of titles, it has also become predictable for the rivals, who little by little, are beginning to take the measure of them, coupled with the multiple injuries that have occurred in the squad.

This has opened a debate among fans, who believe that the change of formation could return Liverpool to their level. In the last game against Rangers Glasgow in the Champions League, a different formation was used, where Diogo Jota played behind Darwin Núnez, with freedom on the pitch, and even multifunctional in the new era of the Reds, who are preparing to face the leaders Arsenal next Sunday.
