Match Thread: Liverpool v Man Utd

[teesred]

The system isn't right. And that is down to Slot.

It's ridiculous. Starting games with something he hopes clicks and when it doesn't just starts playing substitute bingo.
We've barely deserved to win a game all season, we are getting close to a quarter in and not looking like we're close to clicking at all and the worrying part is there's just been zero control in dny game.
It was always going to be difficult to integrate so many and there was a danger of too many changes but I think we are entitled to expect a bit more from the new recruits but there's also the form of existing players.

Losing at home to a shite Manc team with Slab head hitting the winner. Wow only we can do this. No more of this shit.
Now off to waste energy in the champions league.

Glad I did overtime, this was pretty predictable to be honest

Slot ain't going to be the man to sort this I hope i'm wrong

Not calling him to go, just can't see how he'll fix this without even more transfers, heads should roll in the transfer department.

Looks like we start playing too late in the game. Why not start with ekitike and chiesa? Instead of chasing the game.

Smallest mercy it wasn't at the Kop end.
Although those sewer rats will have a song about it already no doubt.

Slot doesn't rate chiesa. Or has an issue with him.

Ekitike should be the starting cf based on performances. But isak was bought as the main guy. I'd say they expect Ekitike to start how he has. But I agree, he shoukd be starting right now. Ease isak into the team.

Slot needs to show something in the next few weeks to turn this around.

[crazydog]

Could the keeper have came and punched the Fernandez cross? It was up there for quite a bit and he was only 5 yards away from where maguire was from him?

Or is this the modern day keeper who stays rooted to their line?

[Lenouis]

Best transfer window ever they said. We've brought in big game charlies on stupid amounts of money and were now left with no leaders.

Pundits were saying ‘If they get Isak then just hand them the league’. Absolutely no where near winning games never mind competitions.

The new lads haven't been great, but neither have the lads that romped home last season.

Mo, Mac, Konate have been shocking. Grav, Virg, Bradley and Gakpo havent been great. Only Ali and Szoboslai have been anywhere near the required levels.

That many players 'off form' at the same time suggests to me that it's systematic.

[miller0863]

Gakpo was our biggest goal threat today, hit the woodwork three times (once from a deflected cross) and missed a header from about 4 yards.
Fine margins maybe but he really should have scored at least two of those and probably three, enough to have won the game.

At least he was getting in position for getting chances. Gawd knows where Isak was most of the time. Forgot he was on the pitch in the second half
