Liverpool manager Arne Slot has identified three key weaknesses in Manchester United strategy after his team 3-0 win at Old Trafford.
Slot pinpointed United change in pressing game defensive vulnerabilities with their attacking full-backs and the need for combative midfielders who can dominate one-on-one battles.
Slot noted that United have shifted from man-marking in midfield to a 4-4-2 formation with a 9 and 10 press making them more susceptible to being played through.
He also highlighted the high positioning of United full-backs which can leave them exposed in one-on-one situations.
The Liverpool boss praised his midfielders for their aggressive approach and ability to win duels citing this as a crucial factor in their victory.
