Transfer fears highlighted
After unsuccessfully failing to lure Martin Zubimendi away from Real Sociedad, it was reported that Liverpool may not pursue an alternative. However, the Reds’ first-half display against Ipswich highlighted their need for a No. 6. The home side were able to play on the front foot and break through the lines regularly in central areas, and they may have been punished by a top side. Against lesser opposition, Ryan Gravenberch could thrive in the role though.
Ipswich settle into life in the Premier League
It took Ipswich a matter of minutes to settle into life in the English top-flight. The Tractor Boys caused Liverpool several problems on the counter-attack and also posed an aerial threat thanks to new signing Jacob Greaves. Kieran McKenna’s side lost very little in defeat and will look to build on the performance in the coming weeks.
