Det blir spill mot ett mål, Liverpool sliter med å score, avgjør på corner på overtid. Jesse Marsch er godt fornøyd med prestasjonen og skylder på uflaks. Sjelden har jeg hatt mindre tro på poeng enn i dag.
“We’re looking into various things at improving our status, our travel arrangements before games, adding coaching staff – and even psychologists – and transfers obviously. All I can say is, they are very supportive and I’m not done!
“I understand if we don’t win games I put them in a difficult situation. Focus on what’s necessary for the next four games.”
It’s been about concentration of the gravity and the clarity of what the work is and so that’s I think is the most important thing for a manager. Obviously, in there is the ability to challenge the players, to invest in the players continually. And in the end, it’s the players who are going to help get us out of this, their clarity and their psychology is the most important thing. “
“Now the demands are high in terms of confidence, belief, quality, commitment, execution, all of it. And obviously, certain personalities can handle it and are up for it and certain personalities, waiver in times like this. It’s normal, right? I said last year it was a psychological project, I almost feel like we’re back into that phase right now where I have to psychologically analyse exactly where each individual is at and where we are as a group and then I have to try to bolster that and encourage it and then give them the chance to succeed. We did that well obviously last year in many ways, and now we have to find a way to do it again.”
“We have be disciplined and compact. We don’t want to open the game up where they can be outrunning the entire match and using their talent and qualities that they have in open space. But we have to still find ways to command the game with the ball and what we do in possessio and then it has to be our best pressing game and our best counter pressing game,iIt has to be our most discipline game, it has to be our most intensive game. Like in those standard we have to now make sure that we’re at our highest level.”
Dette er et lite utdrag fra pressekonferansen. Men særs interessant. Klart noen 3 poengene på rad kan snu dette, men det blir nok en stor jobb.
Får han en "ny" pre-season ila VM så kan man nok i større grad ordne oppi disse tingene. Da tror jeg han trenger 4 poeng ut av de neste 3 ligakampene. Evt 3 poeng hjemme mot Bournemouth og avansement mot Wolves.
Men jeg tror vi skal være glad for at vi får en mini pre-season snart.
For det er sjeldent han har vært så åpen om problemene som nå. Tidligere har det vært tåkesnakk stort sett. Som i seg selv kanskje sier veldig mye om alt.
