In this tactical analysis, we break down Liverpool's dominant 5-0 victory over West Ham, highlighting Arne Slot's innovative tactics. Central to the Reds' success was the deployment of Luis Díaz as a false 9, drifting wide to receive long passes from defenders like Virgil van Dijk, creating fluid attacking movements. We analyze how Díaz combined with Cody Gakpo and midfielders like Alexis Mac Allister to dismantle West Ham’s defensive structure.

We also dive into Liverpool's creative buildup, featuring Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andy Robertson tucking inside to dictate play, and assess West Ham's struggles in possession, including their attempts to bypass Liverpool's press.

Finally, we review the game's key moments, including Alexander-Arnold's stunning long-range goal, Mohamed Salah's relentless runs, and Diogo Jota's late clincher, as Liverpool produced an xG of 2.92 to West Ham's 0.32.

Stay tuned as we dissect how Liverpool’s relentless form sees them storm to the top of the Premier League table with an eight-point cushion, while West Ham remains stuck in 13th.
