Liverpool’s shaky defence

Liverpool boast of a very tight defence. They have arguably the best back 4 in all of England, perhaps even Europe. However, the game against Norwich City showed that Jurgen Klopp’s men aren’t as impenetrable in the back as one would have thought.

Liverpool took an early lead in their last match and returned 4-0 by half-time itself. However, they ended the match at 4-1; failing to add to their score while conceding one. The game against the Canaries showed that Liverpool’s defence could be breached with dedicated discipline.

With no disrespect to Norwich City, surely Frank Lampard commands a better side. If the Blues can put Liverpool under the same pressure that the Canaries managed for double the duration that they did, then there is no reason why Chelsea won’t leave Istanbul as the winners tonight.
