Match Thread Liverpool V Man City

[Ravo19]

I remember being 3-0 at half time,shaqiri playing a blinder and klopp takes him off at half time.klopp not happy with the 2 man mid and stated it asked to much of fab and hendo.
Imo mac is struggling in a 2 man mid and i would prefer to see him in a 3 man mid before drawing a line through him
The two passangers who need replacing are salah and gapko.

Back to Forum after months, just want to say

Did anyone notice Roy Hodgson got 25 points vs Slot 20 point over 20 League game?

If that's what you came to say you shouldn't have bothered.

How many league titles did Hodgson win us? Exactly. Now bore off.

We didn't deserve that yesterday and anyone blaming Arne needs to give their head a wobble. What was Ali doing ? Honestly couldn't make it up.
First time in a long time I've left the ground feeling hugely disappointed.
This season has been awful for various reasons and lady luck is definitely not with us.
On a side, alot of tickets will be available from here to the end of the season, even on the club website as we fight for 8 th FFS.

8th is the new 1st Ian..

According to JokeShop and Kev 🫵🏻

It is on Slot he made us play more cautiously including sitting deeper and trying to g to protect what we had when we have done that in years

Well said like Wirtz though the usual clowns like 19x and miller will have dig

Every

single

time

No matter what, but yeah.... imagine if we had signed some defensive cover in Jan, and Szob wasn't at RB we'd have been probably fine, allison needs to start buckin his ideas up too among everyone else.

can't believe i've gone from watching mane/diaz... to fucking Crapo...... he's summing up everything that's wrong with the team, depressing to watch boring, and predictable....

if club was that bothered we'd have actually signed someone in january to make sure we get top 5 it's a farce we didn't get a defensive player in at least..... utter joke well done transfer team fsg and everyone involved in the club atm, some downfall.

I believe teams do better than us later on in the games also because they actually have some decent subs..... especially teams with some depth like city, we have fuck all they bring on Cherki with foden still a option... we bring on Jones, we also might as well have a bench of 3-4 players at the moment.

Not to mention city's keeper is the best shot stopper in the world and yesterday proved it.

Leave me out of this. If you disagree with Ian take it up with him.

Bit random ey, he's obsessed

then pretends to be a saint of the forum, like Miller

[Nineteenx]

Steve Nicol absolutely skating Slot for us going from dominating to sitting on the edge of our own area

So ridiculous teams know we have been leaking late goals and believe they can get something when we do that the answer is to not do it and when we win it keep it

[CCTV]

I would disagree with your conclusions,except for salah. Him speaking out maybe him trying to get him sacked.

VVD against psv. I'd look more at Konate.

To obsolve slot of all blame, I find that strange.

He coaches them, sets the team up, decides tactics, makes the subs. Yet, it's all down to salah, vvd and macca. They are below the standard they set, yes. But the manager needs to fix that. Drop them, like he did with salah. Yet not much changed when salah was out.

39 points after 25 games. Embarrassing is right. Who is the man overseeing all of that? He is part of the problem with all the other factors.

There's blame to share widely. But in analysing the club, summer transfer window, Slot, the players... Those 4 stand out significantly.

In that 1st half v PSV... VVD looked like he was trying to get sent off. Could've easily got 2 yellows, and a third demonstrating with the ref after the half time whistle had gone. Conceded a penalty in the opening minutes.
3 penalties conceded this season. Errors leading to goals, flaffing at set pieces. Watch his media this year compared with last. Miles apart.
I've said he was the only key man to sign up last season of our 3 amigos, and nothing i say will ever take away from his legacy at LFC, but his performances & leadership this year, miles off.

MacA has spent entire 1st halfs out of position. His form dropping has coincided with interest from Real which he & his dad spoke about. Then he goes out talking publicly in the press. Konate like MacA, expected to leave in the summer Real or maybe PSG. Salah spat the dummy & won more broadly it seems.

Thats the size of the problem Slots facing.

Slot will have 1 year left on his contract come the summer.

Played 25
Won 11
Drew 6
Lost 8
+5 gd

Every 5 games we outscored our opponents by 1 goal.

Last year
Won 18
Drew 6
Lost 1
+36 gd

Every 5 games we outscored our opponents by 5.2 goals.

At this point i suspect Slot will be gone before the summer.

[Nineteenx]

Stop blaming the players they were pretty much playing from memory last season they naturally moved into positions as they were under Klopp and played the same way and I can see it in almost all the goals

This season Slot has changed a lot has them deeper sitting off more over passing too much not pressing or picking up, they’ve become his players and team proper this season and he’s been a disaster

I can’t blame players I know are top players when used properly and coached properly

Totally agree on shared blame. It's not siley on the players. That's not excusing them in anyway obviously.
I don't think he goes before summer though, this stuttering form will see Slot stay in place for now unless it got as bad as that run of defeats.
I'd imagine of Alonso was someone they wanted he'd be there now so I personally believe they'll wait till end of season and just ride this out hoping for the best and taking the hit on missing out if it happens and let's be truthful even the most optimistic fan must think it's a bit of a long shot right now after Sunday.
An interim isn't something I'd imagine FSG going for.

My point is why u guys still support Slot even he is so bad.

[JockStrap]

Why do you still support Liverpool if it's so bad?

[Nineteenx]

My point is why u guys still support Slot even he is so bad.

It’s a fair point, I had an 80 plus woman jump into my chats with a lad in the local shop today with a tirade about Slot

These ppl supporting this shite aren’t Liverpool fans, they’re ppl wanting ppl to support this because it’s shite and they’re loving it
