Liverpool left plenty of doubts in Premier League opener against Blues

In the first game of the season our Liverpool fans were left with more doubts than certainties, as although the team was able to take a point from Stamford Bridge, many believed that facing a team that couldn't even finish in the top 10 of the Premier League last season, we would get a win.

 

However, the match against Chelsea ended in a draw and the great figure of our team was Alisson Becker, which reflects that, especially in the second half, the Reds were not able to generate much danger in the opponent's goal and on the contrary we were very close to go down on the scoreboard.

Fortunately for our cause, Alisson once again showed why he is the best goalkeeper in the Premier League and one of the best in the world, but the fact that he had to be the star of the match has raised many concerns within the team, so much so that even our club captain, Virgil van Dijk, admitted that the team has much to improve during the season, although he assured that he is confident that they will do so.

In addition, van Dijk also took the opportunity to send a message to the board, saying that while he is happy with the performances of Alexis Mac Allister and Dominik Szoboszlai in their Premier League debuts for Liverpool, he hopes that at least a couple more players can be brought into the team this summer. In addition, he also revealed what happened in the team's dressing room at halftime of the game against Chelsea.

 

What happened at halftime of the game against Liverpool?

Our new captain, in a post-match interview, revealed that at halftime of the game against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge the team watched videos of the mistakes they were making in the defensive zone to try to reverse them. "At half-time we spoke about it, we saw clips and I think in the second half we did also much better. Obviously with the speed they have on the counter-attack with the guys that can play the balls in behind then they could get dangerous, and they did that of course. We defended quite well still, in my opinion, because it's not easy, we don't have to forget that," he said.
