    Why does Slow allow Salah not to work back and help the fullback? not like hes doing much the other way..

    Exactly what ive been saying.
    I had called for wirtz to be tried wide attack but he doesnt have the pace,we have the players to go back to 4 3 3 with a false 9,ekitikie/isak playing sadio's role.
    More worried that slot is to stubborn to go back to 'klopps' formation.
    A poster put up that since we got knocked out of last seasons CL we have lost 40 % of our games,not good enough.

    Thats easy slot knows that salah no longer has the legs to get back and prefers to let salah stay up where he 'was' most dangerous but with salah not dropping back and a 2 man midfield we are exposed down the right side.

    Might work - but - do we think Wirtz has the work rate and especially the physique to play the Firmino role…? Slot sees them in training, there must be a reason why he isn’t trying this…

    well that's gonna be all comps as we lost 4 in the league whole season, and 5 so far this season?

    Pretty sure 2-3 of them losses was when it was already won too pretty much

    Al comps shouldn't really matter, but then you got drawing to Grimsby and getting knocked out on pennos..... so doesn't count as a loss- the europa run made it to the final obviously with some shitty teams they had to play.

    we was shit quite a bit last season though to be honest, not sure if that's because we already won it or it was the start of something.

    We obvioulsy took our foot off the gas after winning it last season. The problem is we've forgotten to take the handbrake off this season!

    We have a 'gentle' run of games before we go to the Emirates in January. He (and the players) have to sort it in those 9-10 games.

    If he doesn't then most of us will be baying for blood come xmas, but I think he'll be given at least this season by the owners.

    Wirtz not working as a 10.
    Wirtz doesnt have the pace wide attack.
    Now in your opinion doesnt have work rate as false 9.
    He will be selling programmes at this rate.

    One thing I am sick of seeing is everyone stood in a line, waiting for the ball or for someone to do something. Until we invariably lose at and leave ourselves wide upon for the counter.

    There is zero movement from anyone in front of the two centre halves. What happened to Grav dropping deeper and pick the ball up? Why is Mac always stood behind a defender when we have the ball but is never goal side when we lose it.

    If we're shipping goals at one end and looking toothless at the other that is 100% a midfield problem. With or without Wirtz, whatever it is Slot is setting up, it's fucking rubbish.

    btw how do we insert images on here?

    Wirtz may or may not be the problem, but it makes little difference... We could have Zidane in at 10 and we'd still look a shambles in midfield.

    Grav's too high and we may as well replace Mac with a training cone the way he's played this season.
