The Blues lost 2-1 to newly promoted Liverpool in the opening round and the only goals scored were penalties. The defending champions did have multiple opportunities to score but they couldn’t clinch the win.

“I don’t think we played poorly in the first half. I just think sometimes we want to win things by bigger margins when we should just follow the process and keep passing the football.”
