liverpool, united kingdom - Liverpool's turnaround in set-piece proficiency leads to a 5-2 victory over West Ham, marking a significant shift in their performance and strategy under manager Arne Slot.

Liverpool Making Up for Lost Time with Set-Piece Success

Liverpool's recent 5-2 win against West Ham showcased a remarkable improvement in their set-piece effectiveness, a stark contrast to their struggles earlier in the season. The team, under manager Arne Slot, has embraced a more direct approach, reaping the benefits of this tactical shift.

Set-Piece Revolution

Having been slow to adapt to the set-piece revolution in the Premier League, Liverpool's change in fortunes was evident in the match against West Ham. The team scored three goals from corners in the first half, a feat that had eluded them in the early stages of the campaign.

Key Players

Players like Hugo Ekitike and Alexis Mac Allister played pivotal roles in Liverpool's set-piece resurgence, contributing goals and assists that have been instrumental in the team's recent success. Ekitike's impressive goal-scoring record and Mac Allister's clinical finishes have added a new dimension to Liverpool's attacking prowess.

Manager's Influence

Manager Arne Slot's decision to address the set-piece deficiencies by parting ways with the set-piece coach in December has paid off handsomely. The team's improved performance from dead-ball situations has been a result of collective effort and a shift in mentality under Slot's guidance.

Looking Ahead

Despite their recent run of victories, Liverpool acknowledges the need for more consistency and control in their performances. As they aim to climb the Premier League table and continue their success in other competitions, the team remains focused on further enhancing their set-piece capabilities.

In conclusion, Liverpool's resurgence in set-piece effectiveness reflects a strategic evolution that has reinvigorated their gameplay and redefined their approach to critical moments on the field. With a newfound determination to excel in this aspect of the game, Liverpool is poised to make a strong finish to the season.
