3rd goal came from baiting the press and exploiting space.
4-2 build-up stretched the pitch.
Pass to Alisson triggered the high press.
Staggered pivots enabled bounce passes.
Trent's weak-foot long ball surprised the press, and an aerial win sealed it.

5 scans at least to check for runners and to study his surroundings, which him to recognize Barca's offside trap.
So, instead of the switch, which many other players would have chosen, he clocked Molina's run & played him through.

The players were fresh enough due to the rest they get when IP, but the clarity in everyone's role also improved the press.
Hybrid press, congested central areas, and wide ball is your trigger for m2m.

My biggest issue after Spurs league game was how confused the players were in the press. Add how physically draining ETH's model was, and you get the usual OOP issues.

Sure, LFC's changing dynamics IP + Anfield denied Fulham full control, but the high press led to the second goal.
Fulham often found the spare man with clipped balls and had two or more free players consistently.

Silva’s side exploited this by playing over the press, targeting Jiménez’s runs and link-up with Wilson.
Even when Gomez won aerials, FUL often secured the 2nd balls.

Sure, he’s relentless, but his pressing runs need work, especially when Liverpool aims to lock play to one side.
It’s the same mistake he made vs. Real Madrid and earlier vs Girona (2nd post), letting them play against the press.

No manager would ask their LB to press the GK right after clearing a set piece. This gave Wolves a numerical edge on the switch, leaving Summerville defending nearly three attackers to make up for that aimless press.

Notice the change here: Havertz lurks at the back post, and the others do not continue their runs to the 1st post.
Rice's delivery was soo good as well.

5-4-1 midblock: Close passing lanes to Ode and Saka by congesting the LHS, and force the Gunners to go to the left.
Timber's absence from RB is affecting AFC's dynamics too.

Going behind Kiwior is so clever because it makes it so much easier when he receives the pass. Kiwior is no longer behind him and in control; rather, he is out of the whole picture.

Temperament, mentality, action timing, and physicality are unfortunately not there.

Constant positional rotations are the best way to beat Atalanta's notorious m2m press, and Milan didn't fail to bring that to the game.
Morata & Pulisic dropping deep, Theo inverting, Fofana & Reijnders at LB, Leão at 10.

They’re also third this season with 5.38xG conceded, just behind Southampton and Leicester.
But apparently, Ange doesn’t need a set-pieces coach.

Same Up, back and through pattern we consistently saw under ETH but with more players committed to build-up and with clear positional discipline.

To protect central areas with Grav and Macca dragged wide, Arne Slot nullified Rico Lewis with Robertson tightly marking him.
Gakpo who also covered Lewis took the responsibility to track Walker’s runs in the left space.
