Liverpool FC - Talk /Gossip/Rumours 25/25

Offside!

Yea you'd imagine. I'd prefer to see Arsenal win it.

Beating Wolves at home isn't for everyone it seems. Wolves fully deserved it too.

Only Wolves 3rd point of the season🙈🙈

oh we were never catching arsenal and or city, it just felt a maybe a turning point for them.

i thought if Villa got a draw or a shock win, especially with rice out, then it could derail things for them.

The way our season has gone we shouldn't look to Arsenal and City now.

Everything needs to go in to getting 3 points against a Leeds team who are in good form and are not a walk over no matter what some in here want to think of it being an easy game.

They beat Chelsea 3-1, drew with us 3-3, drew with Brentford 1-1 (away), beat Crystal Palace 4-1 and drew 1-1 with Sunderland (away). They are undefeated in the month of December and lost their last November match to City 3-2 (away) only losing to a 91st minute winner from City.

I really don't care about the performance for this game. 3 points will put us 5 points ahead of Chelsea and United and 4 points behind Aston Villa and get the win we can pressure them for 3rd.

A month ago we would have all taken being 4th going in to the New Year. We need to kick on from here.

Ya im mixed up with the days too many guinness over Christmas.

it will be anything but. Calvert-Lewin will be so up for it (think Richarlison) and they learned at Elland Road how to hurt us at the back (think running at Konate). Really need Bradley to be fit and on form for it.

Leeds a very dangerous game for us, they are playing well, know from earlier this month they have nothing to fear against us and we are still not playing well despite an upturn in results. Getting the win would consolidate 4th and put a bit of pressure on Villa in 3rd, which I think is still very achievable for us.

I want back in the title race, it's there for us IF we get it together, stop all the negative approaches from Slot

Klopp's message to players was to always play with bravery, take risks, and never fear mistakes. Feels the opposite now, Slot will try to hold on to a lead as soon as we get it by removing attackers and putting on defenders

If at 2-0 we concede under Klopp, he encourages us to even attack more, ends up 5-1

I’m ngl, watching Arsenal be this successful feels like I’m living in a reoccurring nightmare, something feels so off

The lack of speed energy and intensity from Liverpool is pretty stark when watching other games over the Xmas period. Listening to podcasts of match day goers and the lack of atmosphere in ground is an obvious outcome of this slow pace play and the lack of leadership.

If we don’t buy in January that will be a potential red flag for Slot’s tenure. Two keepers on the bench v Wolves and also a load of squad players he has almost zero intention of playing.

We aren’t missing a lot of players as it is - Dom will be back for Friday Konate one card off suspension.

That’s leaves salah endo Gomez Isak leoni unavailable and Danns if that’s even worth noting as he’s not going to get game time.

At their age Wirtz and Ekitike should they be playing more than forty games given the adjustment to the physicality of the PL. inexplicable how many minute Macca’s getting as well. So in short the squads looking threadbare which is added to by Slot’s reluctance to use players more and over use others.

But Slots failure to generate energy either from the players or the fans looks like a constant at this point. He even called on the fans pre wolves and at two nil up the place was like a morgue.

I have been for quite some time Slot out and the recent results are doing nothing to mask the dogsh1t football. At the halfway point in the league it’s looking like Chelsea, Spurs, Palace, Newcastle, City and United could be in the market for a new manager all picking from a market that is not over loaded with candidates.

Yes. The fans can only react to what's in front of them. All season its been atrocious for the most part. And if we're honest it wasn't great last year as a spectacle.
