This tactical change could work wonders for the Reds next season. Liverpool will face Aston Villa. The final day of the Premier League season will see them host Wolverhampton Wanderers. Then? Jurgen Klopp will launch one final salvo of fist bumps into the Anfield stands. He’ll wave goodbye to Merseyside. There will be music and despair. Liverpool will remember the remarkable trip that resulted in success on practically every front. What is the difference between the Premier League and Champions League? Both conquered. Klopp’s squad has swerved away from their best form in recent months, dropping out of the Europa League and FA Cup while collapsing in the English Premier League, pulling away from a thrilling title chase.
According to FBref, the Egyptian winger ranks in the top 6% of offensive midfielders and wingers in Europe’s top five leagues in terms of goals scored over the last year, as well as the top 1% in terms of attacking penalty area touches and assists per 90 minutes. He may be struggling at the moment, having failed to score in four consecutive Premier League matches before Spurs, producing a limp attacking effort as Liverpool crashed out of the Europa League against Atalanta – who have now advanced to the final – and even clashing with Klopp on the touchline during April’s 2-2 draw against West Ham United.
