    Unless it gets a lot worse its looking like fsg will stick with slot untill end of season before parting ways.
    Its impossible to get a top manager in mid season and unlikely a caretaker manager can pull the squad together.
    I feel that slot is a dead man walking and would take a massive improvement 2nd half if season for him to avoid the sack at the end if the season.

    I hope Slot turns it around. Watching the mental gymnastics from the glory hunters would be hilarious.

    I think he can but the Mo situation needs resolved. Either they work out their differences or Mo moves on in January. Slot can’t fix this with Mo sulking at the club. Too much distraction.

    In December 2025, you claim Slotball "started to get into the system."

    Thing is - despite deficiencies in a few areas we failed to address, we signed quality footballers. There is no way you can tell me they cannot be amalgamated into a side capable of top four from this point on. This is the issue for Arne... You expect new signings to take time, but you don't expect your key players - backbone of what won the title.. the stalwarts... to go to shyte at the same time.. This is the thinking and forms the bigger question the owners will be asking..

    There is some very good ‘next level’ football developing under Slot. Yes I know it’s only Pre season friendly etc… but still.

    It is a different approach to Klopp’s. Not massively but it is different - dare I say it, a more compete form of the game. It would be magic if we could become adept enough at it to mount a title challenge with this style. Not expecting that at all this season.

    But the early signs are very encouraging
    Amazingly you can forget your positions, and stand by them even where you contradict yourself.

    Keep trawling mr desperate.

    August 4th 2024 is the start of our football without Klopp in the dugout. Barely 2 months following on from Jurgen’s call to arms at Anfield - which is - in Liverpool BTW

    And I am saying what I saw. Which was a slightly more controlled game. As I mentioned just a few days ago and which seems to have become apparent - in the transition from Heavy Metal Football - to Slot ball we played a brand pretty close to my preference. The intensity was still there tho (until march) but players were that little bit less taxed (something I argued with you for years required a bigger squad and led to muscle fatigue ) - shorter less risky passing allied to a more controlled approach - clearly preserved the muscles a little more - allowing Slot to pick from Jurgen's best 11 for enough games to take the title

    By march the intensity was gone. Visibly. Not just PSG or Toon at Wembley but plenty other games before and after where we simply got over the line. The mentality instilled by the great German IMO.

    So Henry’s GIMP… Keep trawling..
    Wearing your ignorance with pride

    You stand by stating the immediate observance of Slotball, there to be seen in August 2024.
    And stating slotball got into the system many months after this post of yours...

    No integrity, no substance. Talking absolute bollocks again

    I don’t think sacking the manger should be an option now, no.
    They wouldn't have sold him in the summer after his performance last season. There would have been up roar. Also, why would salah sign on known he would be sold. He would have just left on a free in the summer rlif that's the case.

    I'm not for sacking slot. Never said I was. I'm more for sacking Hughes and Edwards at the moment.

    Once it became apparent Slot had won number 20, you turned on him.

    It was all good in August 2024,
    "It is a different approach to Klopp’s. Not massively but it is different - dare I say it, a more compete form of the game."

    Once he won the league, robbing your guys Arteta & Kroenke, your bitterness couldnt be masked

    Sacking Hughes and Edwards isn’t happening. So now what?

    Salah has proved why you don’t give bumper contracts to players over 30. Their performances can fall off a cliff at any point. There might have been uproar if we’d sold him from a bunch of people who know nothing. So what? The staff are tasked with improving the squad and being competitive, not listening to idiots.
