The Midfield

You could explain tactically why one formation is better than another and how that ties into what Slot is doing. That might be useful.

You could have the opinion that the moon is made of cheese. I suppose you have that right but it's not much use. Just like your opinion on football formations.

Exactly,but the question stands when we have been so open this season why has slot stuck stubbonly to a 4 2 3 1 and not changed it,this isnt to say never use a 4 2 3 1 but a top manager would change it up.
Us nobody's can see how we will set up and expert opposition coaches know how to play against us with low block and hit us on counter.
Oh and this is forum=discuss opinions.

This is how the grooming starts. We seen it with Kev. Though Kev was clever enough to bin the idiot. And make a fool of him in the process

Who me?
Must have missed that.

You still don't get it. Your opinion on formations doesn't mean shit without some explanation. It's about as useful as your opinion on quantum physics. You have no clue what goes on behind the scenes at elite clubs yet you sit on your ass posting pure shite about what Slot should do. And you expect people to take you seriously

Nope i expect a discussion.maybe for once you could answer questions.
1,should slot take blame for this season,if he took praise for last season?
2,why does a top title winning manager not try other formations?
3,why do you have a go at almost every player this season but not one negitive comment against slot?
Klopp wasnt perfect and i have spoke up when he got it wrong (imo)

We can get to those once you answer the question I asked. What is it you know about formation change that Slot doesn't?

Or formation change.

That stuff.

[jozza800]

What about when we win? Is the formation all wrong then? Or is it only wrong when we lose?

Dont be facetious. You could say that about every tactic that any manager ever comes up with...

Surely you can see the difference between this season and last.

I can. And it's not tactical for the most part.

Here's an idea for those who think they know better than the LFC manager.

Come on here before the next 3 matches and explain how the formation is wrong and what problems it will cause us during the game. Once the lineup is out, post those thoughts in the pre-match thread. We have 3 games in a week. Let's see who turns up and how accurate they are.

If you don't do it before the game then don't turn up like little yapping know-it-alls during or after the game.

Slot hasn’t changed because he believes in his way even though all the evidence is that it doesn’t work

Good. I expect your analysis to be first in the pre-match thread. And none of this bullshit about how Slot should have played a different player. Specific points on the formation and how the opposition will exploit it, in detail.

If you had a clue you wouldn’t be doing this routine because you’d know the differences it made it’s just more of you doing you’re sane pathetic crap wrecking another thread go back under whatever rock you crawled out from under

It's pretty simple and it has been all season.

It's not specically the formation, it's the position of the two 'holding' midfielders, one often going past the forwards and the other parked on the top of the D. When we lose the ball the opposition are frequently right on top of our CBs.

It's not just causing a defensive issue, it also 'gums up' our attacking play with so many bodies in and around the 18 yard box waiting for a ball.

I don't think it's that simple. But see my challenge in the pre-match thread. Everyone is free to post their expertise.

[miller0863]

Yep. Let’s all do as instructed by the Forum gimp

[JockStrap]

How predictable. Of course you're terrified of putting your ideas down before the game. It's much easier to sit yapping on the match thread.

We'll see who knows anything about football in the next week.
