Lucescu: Liverpool struggle when they attack

Last updated : 27 February 2002 By Kop Talk News


Galatasaray coach Mircea Lucescu believes Liverpool struggle when they attack teams.

His side managed a 1-1 draw with the Reds last week and he considers this a decent result because of the players he had missing.

"We were missing eight first team men, and although Liverpool are a strong side they do seem to have trouble when they are asked to attack," said Lucescu.

"They are a very difficult side to face with the way they hit you on the break. But they are a dangerous side on the counter. But this time we made a tactical change to stop Hamann dominating the match like he did against us last week, and it worked."
