#68 Is Potter Finding the Formula?
from The West Ham Breakdown · host Jack Elderton
Jack Elderton and Cal Goodall break down Liverpool 2-1 West Ham, a hard-fought loss for the Hammers away at Anfield which took the Reds one step closer to the Premier League title. A late winner from Virgil Van Dijk was all that separated the two sides after an own goal from Andrew Robertson had seemingly given Graham Potter's side hopes of leaving with a point, despite conceding early in the first half when Mohamed Salah assisted Luis Díaz to give Arne Slot's side the lead. Jack and Cal discuss all the goals from Sunday's game as well as the big chances for Jarrod Bowen to get on the scoresheet which were denied by Alisson, Lucas Paquetá putting in the kind of performance that showed why Man City wanted to sign him for £85m in the transfer window, what changed at half time to allow West Ham to dominate the second half, Oliver Scarles vs Mo Salah, how the Hammers set up to press Liverpool and force them to play direct, the effects of playing without a recognised striker on both West Ham's build up play and the likes of Bowen and Kudus specifically and much more.
