Not sure if this has been mentioned, but our starting XI on Sunday had an unusually high number of English players for a top flight game.
Pickford, Garner, Tarkowski, Keane, Iroegbunam, Dewsbury-Hall, and Grealish. Throw in O'Brien from Ireland...
At the risk of sounding reform-y, I honestly think their should be more of a requirement for club's to field home-grown talent. Would be better for player development and address some of the absurdity around transfer fees.
Yeah they lucked out, but anyone watching this lot knows full well, they’re getting worse and worse under Slot. They’re a million miles from the 19/20 Klopp team. I’d honestly fancy us to take this lot.
