A half-time team-talk focused on bringing more unpredictability to Liverpool's attacking play was key to earning three points against Huddersfield Town, first-team development coach Pepijn Lijnders has revealed.
The Reds endured a frustrating first half up against David Wagner's side at Anfield on Saturday, struggling to unlock a deep-lying opposition defence and seeing a Mohamed Salah penalty saved.
However, the hosts were much improved going forward after the break, and claimed a deserved win through goals from Daniel Sturridge, Roberto Firmino and Georginio Wijnaldum.
Lijnders believes the victory owed much to the players taking on instructions regarding their movement in the final third prior to the second period.
