Match Thread: Liverpool v Spurs

[teesred]

Apparently there was tickets still for sale for today's match this morning on the club website.
The owners will take notice when the fans vote with their feet.

Wow. I'd be surprised if that were true, maybe hospitality ones?
There was tickets going just before kick of for 65 quid on the Whatsapp group I'm in.

I don’t understand the logic of some who relate CL qualification to be a measure of whether Slot should remain at the club.

What’s the point of being in a comp that there’s little if any chance of actually winning?

He’s turned the team’s football style to turgid and simply easy to beat. The players do not look like they’d bust a gut for him. It’s utterly shameful what has occurred this season.

Fuck the CL as a measure, try this one:

End up below Man Utd from what they’ve become over recent seasons and YOU'RE OUT.

Agreed. Fucking embarrassing that man utd are above us with Carrick in charge ; the mess that club is. That's how low we have fell

[Insidious]

Would tend to agree. What's the point in qualifying if it's gonna be the same dreadful stuff next season?

That's the big question, for sure. I don't think anyone wants more of whatever "this" is.

The questions I have (for the ethos/venting at the wind, not necessarily asking fellow Reds) is will it indeed be the same "dreadful stuff" next season if we make a few of the right acquisitions to better balance the squad and improve player profile in terms of fit?

Rhetorical questions to some extent, but does replacing Macca with a taller, quicker, more physical player in the "Brexit midfield" mould go towards fixing this?

Does bringing in a conservative, defence-first right-back full of energy that is consistently fit go towards fixing this?

Does a rapid, energetic wide-forward (or two) to replace Salah (and/or Gakpo) go towards fixing this?

etc etc

Slot MUST go even if he qualifies what he has done here based on a pipe dream he thought up on change of style, Wirtz as a designated playmaker, lower intensity training, trying to offload players like Robbo and Jones, who he let go and who he brought in

Thank God he didn’t have funds last season

The issue is how the transfer budget was spent and who he let go and brought in, it had to be done so we had a balanced squad to compete in all four fronts and if how he proposed to play was fatally flawed and we spent 470m on that to not have a squad to complete he has to go

FSG needed to act decisively at the end of October you couldn’t get tickets for love or money only 6 months ago.

"I feel flat," said Dominik Szoboszlai - who scored the Reds' 18th-minute opener - on Sky Sports.

"We have to wake up because if we carry on like this, we should be happy with the Conference League. I don't know why this is happening, I honestly don't know.

"In the last minute, again, I don't know how many times this season already."

Eight times, that's how many.

Liverpool have now conceded eight Premier League goals in the 90th minute or later this season - their most in a single campaign, surpassing seven in 2010-11. Every single one has cost them points.

Why is this happening and how much could it cost them at the end of the season?

Why is this happening? Slot is why this is happening. Sack him immediately FFS!!!
