In Sunday's Double Red Meeting, United were not as vulnerable as expected. In the face of Liverpool's bombardment, they held the gate and showed tenacious fighting spirit.
Throughout the game, Liverpool had more than 30 shots on goal, but there were not many real goalscoring chances. When Alexander-Arnold and Salah were in mediocre form, Nunez and others failed to step up.
Most shots are just forced from outside the box, and it is difficult to score without playing a world wave, and against West Ham United, who are better defensively, Klopp will have to think about how to improve the efficiency of the attack.
Reds' Liverpool will continue to host the strong "Hammer" West Ham United in the English League Cup last-eight tie in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Given the Reds' dominance in terms of track record and playing at home, favour Jurgen Klopp's side to win. Liverpool's attacking performance was active, and the failure to win Manchester United also led to Liverpool ceding the top spot, and the Reds will certainly hope that West Ham will be on the side.
Liverpool are still unbeaten in 10 games and are currently in second place in the league with 38 points. Against Manchester United, Liverpool can only blame themselves for playing too impatiently and not creating too many must-score chances after attacking the final third.
But the Reds are Premier League giants after all, especially in the 2022 summer window, they also introduced very capable midfielders, such as Allister, Szoboszlai, Endo and Gravenberch, plus the blessing of big names such as Salah, under the premise that the league is expected to win the championship, I believe they will not let go of any cup title.
Liverpool's home record this season is very strong, the team's offensive firepower is still guaranteed, but there are still many hidden dangers in the defense that cannot be avoided, and if you want to kill the game, you must rely on scoring more goals.
In addition, it is worth mentioning that Liverpool will face Arsenal at the top of the Premier League this weekend, and Klopp will surely hope to break out of the slump of the last two Europa League games and the Premier League winless streak, and inject a boost into the team with a victory. For this battle of focus, I believe it will definitely attract the attention of countless fans.
West Ham have been in excellent form of late, with a neat squad and plenty of bench depth to handle multi-fronts. Under David Moyes' guidance, the team's counter-attacking tactics have found an effective combination of punches. Paqueta and Kudus were in perfect harmony with each other, and Bowen showed a keen nose on the counter-attack. Against strong teams, West Ham adhered to defensive counter-attacks and had an effective counter-attacking strategy.
In the last round, West Ham defeated Wolves 2-0 at home, winning 2 consecutive games in all competitions, 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 5 games. They are currently in 8th place in the league with 27 points.
West Ham's attacking output has strengthened, but the Hammers have only won one, drawn two and lost 12 of their last 15 competitive matches against Liverpool, so a trip to Anfield could be a disaster.
The heart of a champion cannot be underestimated, this is the League Cup 1 4 finals, and each team has a strong fighting spirit to compete for the championship trophy.
Compared to Liverpool, who may be more inclined to play in the league, there may be some rotation in this game;West Ham, on the other hand, will go all out to fight for the title, and they also have the strength to pull off such an upset against Liverpool.
