Fair Assessment

Atalanta were good, but Liverpool were poor again.

Maybe United should go for him. He has a a lot of experience tbf.

He has tactics. Something it appears ETH has never heard of…

Strange comment for me. They sat in and countered with games. First game they got rewards through Liverpool errors in both defence and attack when game could have easily been a 5-3 defeat for them. Second game they were much better at home but again sat in and countered but lost the game.

They didn't do anything different tactically than United did three times against us this season.

I think it is a fair assessment with regards to Atalanta

Although the tactics Atalanta employed weren't ground breaking, they were extremely well drilled in their roles and the man to man approach is one that prem teams face very rarely.

Fair play to them. Nothing ground-breaking in my opinion but the very best version of what they were trying to do.

Deserve to go through.

This is not the same as what United did

Disagree. United also sat in and countered, praying on mistakes both in defence and attack with poor finishing.

Clearly not, as we scraped a draw and a narrow win, whereas they battered you at home. ETH just got lucky
