Eiraula: We Are Struggling Offensively

Spanish manager Andoni Iraola admitted that Liverpool are struggling offensively, following a goalless draw with Fulham in the English Premier League yesterday. Speaking to BBC Sport after the match at Anfield, Iraola said, “No team can be satisfied with a draw at home. We lacked energy today and did not attack sufficiently to make a difference.” He added, “We kept a clean sheet and improved in the second half, but we started slowly in the first half, lacked vitality, and did not deliver a sufficient performance; we needed to be better offensively.” He pointed out, “We faced Atlético Madrid in the Champions League just 60 hours ago, so all players must adapt to the pressure of matches, and most of the changes to the starting lineup were due to physical reasons, as players felt fatigued.” Iraola then added, “But this is normal every season. We will play Tottenham in three days in the EFL Cup, so we must adapt and find ways to secure a win.”
