“We resort to long balls…” – Liverpool summer signing aims dig at Andoni Iraola tactics

Liverpool winger Bradley Barcola has aimed a sly dig at manager Andoni Iraola as he suggested the Reds aren’t controlling games enough. Reflecting on the 1-0 defeat at home to Arsenal at the weekend, Barcola said he felt Liverpool could have done better and kept resorting to long balls too easily. The France international has not been at his best since joining Liverpool from Paris Saint-Germain in the summer, and he’ll surely be looking to improve his own individual performances. Still, he also suggested Liverpool need to do better as a whole with their tactical approach to games.
