Match Thread: Brentford v Liverpool

[jimmyliver]

I have said on this thread for about a decade I alwayss want a player to be good but the main attributes is athletic strong and quick , wirtz goes against that , so does Kirkez, I can’t see them coming good . Mane was the perfect prem player , the ultimate .
I would sell those players , buy semenyo guehi and a physical quick LB and defensive midfielder

It’s much more than just integrating Wirtz.

We have lost any belief at all. Right through the team. The work rate has gone. Dom Szobozlai apart - there is a universal lack of responsibility. Blaming each other - a lack of togetherness. There’s no threat. At least early season Hugo was a threat but bringing in the lanky Swede - when unfit and benching Hugo hasn’t helped him either.

I said it at the start of the season after the Bournemouth game - a game I still do not know how we won… This is not Klopp’s team anymore.

the dna has gone. We spent the money but losing the dna is crucial .

Best summer ever they said, more like a fucking nightmare

I don't know where to start

- What was the most goals concede in a season with rodgers? at least we scored loads then.

a GD of 2.... utd ahead of us..... look at sunderland by the way !!!!!!!

not only do we get bullied now, we did last season quite a bit still, but at least we had pace to counter it now we have nothing

I can forgive a bad result but not so easy a bad performance,that was one if the worst performances in the last 5 years,we are getting worse and thats on the manager.wouldnt have gone on this prem losing run under klopp.

Might be good that it's Palace we face next at Anfield and in a cup tie.
Players should want to do it for the home crowd as well as the club and themselves.
CP were the fist team to show cracks in our new squad in the Community Shield then the first to beat us in the PL season.
Determined and intense revenge is desperately needed.

The pressing is completly gone from us. The work rate looks to be gone too which was essential the last number of years. Work rate is the one thing that can help you overcome a more talented team. As we have seen the last few league games. The other teams are out working us.

And I agree, the belief is gone from this team. I said it earlier, there is an air of inevitability that the other team will score.

Good point , we are leaking goals like mad but I still thought we would be banging in loads we don’t even look like scoring

It doesn't bear thinking about if we hadn't taken the points in those games before this malaise. Newcastle should have beaten us, Burnley should have had a point too. Narrowly beat Everton. The only game we've looked solid in was Arsenal.

Agree with you on lack of responsibility, I thought that a few games ago. Just players thinking someone else will.do it.
Like that Brentford lad who just strolled past most of the team tonight. Nobody was arsed to put a tackle in.
Very interesting to see if Slot can turn this around because frankly we've been utter shit all season and he has to take the wrap for it.

he has no idea either, nohing changes...

First FSG need to sack the transfer team or whoeevr was involved this summer, and if slot carry's on looking clueless he'll be next i'm afraid...

this is unacceptable after last season and having a big window, we was meant to be improving, staying on top...

how you can not bring in another CM,(no6) and a CB is beyond me, blablabla guehi plenty more fish in the sea, not to mention we lack out wide big time

we've actually got worse, it's crazy people was laughing at me before when I compared what we've lost and gained and how we've got worse- not so funny now dickheads

We had bad runs under klopp as well. It's not an excuse for slot but it has happened.
Slot needs to have a good look at everything. Himself included, heading off on holidays during the international break isn't a good look for a manger whose team is struggling.

I said at rhe time I wouldn't have signed isak. I wod have gotten a cb and a dm. Still stand by that. We lost too much this summer when you consider we lost, jota, Diaz and trent. We replaced jota but not the other 2.

[Kev0909]

if arsenal win, which they will most likely game over for the title, crazy to think we'd be in this position after last season... I didn't agree about the transfer window being the best in the first place

he obviously doesn't rate Chiesa which leaves us with a aging salah who doesn't really give a shit anymore, and Gakpo...... why would we not bring in a diaz replacement

madness, fucking madness, and if we think bradley is the answer and the next trent as some....... rated him higher somehow..... jesus fucking christ, frimpong he's either injured or slot doesn't have a clue what to do with him.

Henderson could've played in this midfield today and improved it, what a joke we've become, the new laughing stock, the new utd.

Fuck off.

Regardless of being 35 , jones couldn’t get near the side when Henderson was playing , he was starting today , we have gone backwards

[Ravo19]

Ruben Amorim looking like out lasting slot.
Ffs.

[Gurthers]

We made some horrific decisions in the summer. Lost all pace up front it seems.

Why can Slot not get them to run? Genuinely think he has no clue what to do now that Klopps last side has been dismantled/aged out. No press at all.

We leak goals and can't score with a non existent midfield. We'll be struggling to stay above the transfer zone before long. If they just ran and pressed and made themselves hard to be it would be something. But Slot can't get them to do that, so he should go sooner rather than later.
