🗣️ Arne Slot: "I didn't improve any individual player at Liverpool. What I did when I arrived is realizing that we are going to play a game every 3 days, so I made my squad as fit as possible, maximum fitness. Once you achieve that, all qualities will come out automatically."

Tried some new activities for a positive transition session this week
Activity 1: A 6 v 3 Transition Rondo to improve decision making in transition
6 attackers keep possession (8 passes = 1 pt)
When defenders win the ball → transition to goal (3pt) or secure possession (1pt)
How Thomas Frank set up his Brentford side to defend against Unai Emery's Aston Villa.
Brentford set up in a high block and man to man across the pitch to limit Villa's playing options and they tried to stop the central attacking players getting on the ball.
Analysis Below -
They manage to win the ball but Tielemans recovers well to stop Wissa and Villa clear the ball.
But Brentford show how they managed to defend against Villa and create high quality chances from their setup.
