Perhaps a bit of both.
There was a paragraph in The Guardian report:
“ Everton approached the game cautiously, putting everyone in blue behind the ball whenever Liverpool were in possession. Moyes plotted a pragmatic gameplan in the hope of keeping the league leaders quiet. Liverpool took advantage of how deep their opponents were, enjoying the vast majority of possession. An early goal felt almost inevitable and it came within 10 minutes when Gravenberch broke through the defensive lines to reach a bouncing Mohamed Salah cross, which he hooked beyond Jordan Pickford with expert technique.”
It would be nice if we didn’t surrender the initiative like this from the start.
How about we don’t do that next time?!
Perhaps I’m being harsh, but that’s 21 visits to Anfield by Moyes now without a single victory to show for it, a truly awful record.
