Liverpool FC - Talk /Gossip/Rumours 25/25

If your happy that narritive fair play the complete sh1t show we are seeing is on Slot either way hes done.

Extremely disappointing game again today . I miss seeing genuinely intensity and pace in our attacks . I really don’t enjoy watching us the Moment .

Very strange season so far. Only 2 teams in top 10 won this round of games, Arsenal and Everton. Everything seems to going Arsenals way at the moment be in that crazy run of OGs that kept them top , results elsewhere etc, set pieces of course which is our bane. We are keeping clean sheet now but we are still giving very good chances . A DCL leg away from losing 0-1 tonight.

I think Slot have 3 different RBs In15mins between Bradley , Frimpong and Szobo. Chucking on attackers that having little to no impact or coherent strategy. Fulham and Arsenal away next I have to say I worry about . I really losing faith in Slots ability to turn us back to title contenders .

So a lot of people seem to be accepting that Slot is gone at the end of the season. If that's the case then why wait? The results are going to get worse as the teams we play get better. Performances are stagnant at a low level. We could lose champions league. We are not likely to challenge for it this year either playing like this.

Surely we should sack him now and try and salvage something. Who would benefit from just waiting until the end of the year? The club certainly wouldn't

I don’t know if you can say it’s an anomaly. We played well rode our luck and some other teams had their own issues.

I think slot cannot risk the pressing as the players don’t have the legs and he is worried about injuries

there are no good managers available and any that would joint would take time to implement their plan.

There were rumours that they might go for nanglesmann when he leaves the German job.

barring a complete disaster, he is here till the summer.

reactionary managerial sackings are not a good thing so they probably won’t sack him

Fully expect us to turn Arsenal over.

Cliche, but I'd be worrying about the next game.

I was watching the first 5 minutes of the anfield wrap’s post match pint and they said it was a typical New Year’s Day crowd.

If the football isn’t very entertaining then the crowd are probably going to be quiet. That’s another thing for Slot to worry about as if he loses the crowd and the results/performances are **** then he’s not gonna last long

That was awful stuff today.

Wirtz who I thought would kick on today, was very poor.

Szoboszlai was average. Frimpong was decent first half, got into some good positions and had the beating of his man.

It's all very slow and predictable though. Not much energy and it's not exciting to watch from the stands. Chalk and cheese from the Klopp football which was exciting. This is fairly dour. If the results were good it would be tolerable at least.

Teams know how to play against us and Slot nerds to change it up quick. There's a lot of talent in our squad and they look a bit lost in this set up.

How has he played in the CL this season? It's good to get someone in at CB, badly stuck there at the moment.

Klopp football was at times absolutely **** dreadful

Remember the winter after we won the league..

The winning part of course was good. But i think older Liverpool fans have been around the block. We've seen lots of managers come and go. So the fact slot won it without changing much was great but you'd need to see his own team and how he wants to set it up. Last season looked like slot tweaking klopp's team. And to be honest a lot of the games weren't that exciting if you look back but the results were good. Admittedly there was a high bar coming from klopp's style (which yielded some of the best football we've seen).

This season we've seen a lot of change and to be fair to slot that would take time to gel. I think the concerning thing for many fans is the manner of play which has generally been awful. If he was a new manager who had just come in we'd be saying this guy hasn't got it. But he has time rightly because of the title last season which was built on klopp's team.

I'm not sure about that at all given our performances to-date.

Next two games could easily be lost.

It is disingenuous to reference the drop Klopp had after winning the title to this drop off.

That squad was playing well until one by one every CB got a long term injury , we then emptied the midfield into centre back to try deal with this and it meant there was no rotation from the intense football we expected from our midfield.

That team had done three near perfect seasons to finally win a league and the squad was exhausted and depleted.

This team has one notable possible starter injured but has stunk the gaf out of it football wise for months.

We took a team that scored 2+ goals every home game to one that can barely manage one goal at home.

Took a team whos aggression in attack fed the crowd , who in turn fed the team back to create a cauldron at Anfield , now its just a lot of bored and frustrated punters.

I knew when Klopp got some CB's fit we would return to our best , I have no idea if this team under this managers direction can become that force again .
