Liverpools zonal defense

[CAD]

Hello!

 

You don't know me as I post mostly on sixcrazyminutes.com. I just have a quick question for the YNWA experts.

 

I've been thinking about our zonal defense and the goals we seem to concede on set pieces. Every team concedes on setpieces, obviously. It's almost always in the vacuum between the keeper and the two CB's. It just can't be helped. We all know that zonal works just fine and if you doubt the effectiveness just look at Italy for evidence. What concerns me is that an effective zonal defence in Italy is always combined with an offside trap. Especially on setpieces. Something Milan (1990!) and other Italien teams has done to perfection. The lack of this trap has cost us dearly! Remember the away game against Benfica to name one:

I'm just wondering if anybody else think that it's a bit strange that we seem to have no real offside trap in place on setpieces?

 

Thanks for a great website btw.
