    Or maybe that’s not what actually happened and you’re in la la land.
    He changed it to 4231 trying to make Wirtz star of the show as an advanced playmaker with too many players standing in space to effectively be walls for Wirtz to pass off no picking up no pace or tempo no pressing or counter pressing or clear patterns of play and movement

    He bought 2 No9’s when we haven’t played with one for 9 years and a 10 when we haven’t played by played with on in 9 years

    Even your thick head must concede they are 3 needless incredibly expensive signings that sticking with the winning blueprint and formula absolutely did not need

    AND selling Diaz

    Hughes needs sacking too and Edwards they signed 3 players for 270 million who didn’t fit our system of play that’s a whopping 270 million gamble on ripping up a blueprint that made us one of the best sides in the Prem and Europe for 10 years

    We needed to keep Diaz try and add another electric forward on the right and a new false 9 and another DM

    Improve on what won us the league not tear the plan up

    It is fucking g ridiculous I’ll thought out and I’ll conceived and every e involved needs to go

    Your criticism seems to be that we bought new players and are changing the system to get the best out of them.

    Weird.

    If it’s not broken don’t fix it

    An absolutely golden LFC rule and rule in general

    We needed to build and improve in what won the league, not tear up a10 year winning formula Slot needs to go every game he stays is more damaging

    We have no pressing and counter pressing patterns of play or automation left

    We need a manager who will play to our players strengths and get them back doing what they do best as quickly as possible

    Newcastle played 433 with Isak, Murphy & Gordon/Barnes as their wide forwards Gordon furthest forward at LFWD and played a really good press whatever the opposition they didn’t play with a 10 they played quite compact and almost framed a huge central area for Isak to work in/with

    That’s exactly what you’re criticising in the previous post. Wirtz, Isak and others are the future. We need to play to their strengths. Although you’re so far gone you don’t really know what you’re criticising Slot for.

    Let me help you out. What you actually want is Klopp’s football. The problem with that is, you need Klopp to implement it. And he left. The Klopp era ended when he resigned. And we won the league with our current manager last season. Try showing him some respect and supporting the team instead of pining for something that is long gone.

    No ripping up the winning formula of 10 years doesn’t play to the vast majority of our players strengths

    Playing 2 instead of the 3 in midfield doesn’t play to the strengths of Gakpo Salah Szoboslai Gravenberch Mac Allister Bradley Konate Van Dijk Robertson or Allison

    I’d have kept Diaz and Nunez, Gakpo would have been going if anyone and I’d have brought Chiesa in who does fit the blueprint and used him a lot more left right and at fast 9

    No really? What part of the following

    "You can list 'expensive signings' all you want, but the Net Spend data proves Klopp was operating with one hand tied behind his back compared to the investment Arsenal put into their rebuild. Klopp’s squad was running on fumes after winning everything, while Arteta was allowed to spend heavily to refresh. Ignoring that financial handicap is where the real lack of integrity lies."

    Klopp had less than HALF the net spend and as a result the opportunity in the market that Arteta had. WHY? Had he not proved through the incredible use of the Coutinho funds that he could land the players the other top clubs wanted..? A time where we could go toe to toe with City, Chelsea and the Arse for top targets. This opportunity was missed to pay for stands.. Super swift pay back on a cheap as chips - half solution.. This is what resulted in missing out x2 on titles we win with just a little more backing.... Why? when revenues were at record levels? WHY when the value of all Premier league football clubs was rising out of all proportion?

    Why the rush?

    Were F$G broke? So short of funds that they couldn't allow their biggest franchise to pay for its own upgrades over a more reasonable time frame..? NO.. The attitude was - Klopp is a genius and he will get us there or there abouts operating well below the spends of his direct rivals. This results in a shattered boom and bust squad. Mentality drained and legs rinsed to make titles un winnable for rivals - rewarded with puny spends in the market when we needed to go again. A mistake CLEARLY acknowledged this very summer.. THIS is what held him back.. the missing pieces of the puzzle. This is what allowed Arteta to close the huge gap of 43 points on us and overtake us in Klopps last 2 seasons. If not this... Please explain what happened..? Are you suggesting that Klopp went to shit?



    If you refuse to accept the facts - that's cool, nobody expects much less from such an obvious shill.

    And people don't disappear they simply work out that you are a WUM and ignore you. I have tried to engage purely out of sympathy.

    That ends...
    12 players both signed are there for you to wax lyrically about.
    As they have been for 2 years now.
    And once presented with them, you've ran like a coward ever since.

    And the bold paragraph really highlights your g.nev opinions on football, those which contrast with Klopps.

    You’re still not getting it. What you would do is irrelevant, you’re not the manager.

    Slot is evolving the team. Players like VVD, Robertson, Salah and others will need replaced over the next couple of years. We have brought in some brilliant, exciting talent. It hasn’t quite gelled yet. The answer isn’t to throw everything out and start again. It’s to support a manager that won the league last season and get behind his new version of the team.

    Or wait for Jurgen to get back into football and go support that club.

    Don't think it's all on FSG tbh, but klopp can't do any wrong I guess...... he's perfect right?

    Back the manager........ liverpool is bigger than anyone ffs... go support klopp in whatever he's doing instead, suck his dick.

    7 finals, lost 6 is it with us?? tactical genius obviously, has to be one of the worst manager records? not saying he's shit but he's far from perfect still like you make him out to be a greek god, he's nowhere near the likes of ferguson, or kenny etc
    Heres a list of things that we all know Klopp hated fat more than anything at LFC.

    Cituae cheating blatantly.
    Failed football governance.
    Var & officials in the UK.
    The cunting media dorks.

    Slot winning the league with the squad Klopp left to him, is a really sore point for ArtetaFamTV.

    He says Klopp ran the players into the ground, blamed fsg for the squad Slot inherited and predicted doom. Then Slot won the league

    Arsenal started with Saka Merino & Eze and have brought on Gykorres Trossard Martinelli and Madueke have Jesus and Havertz coming back too

    We have 2 No9’s when our team can’t play 4231 and Chiesa or Rio as subs

    Arsenal have two top senior CBs playing in place of their first choice CBs today we gave Virgil and Konate and no back up

    Arsenal have Odergard and Eze fir 10 and Hazard who can play false 9 No9 and RFWD

    We have Wirtz

    I could go on, we fucked yo not getting timber too
