Liverpool FC Premier League Champions 25/26 - Talk /Gossip/Rumours

just had a listen to a few of the Liverpool podcasts and there are varying degrees of give to Gerrard until the end of the season and stick with sSlot until the summer. There is nothing there that gives them any encouragement for the future from what I can see.

I think the board and Slot they had more time or more credit in the bank from last season and maybe more patience from the fans considering what happened in the summer but that isn’t the case. And I wonder if the players might feel the same. It will all come out eventually. It’s certainly opened my eyes a bit too and made me quite cynical about the fanbase as a whole. YNWA indeed.

One of the podcasters said that a Jota book will be coming out soon and that the guy writing it said that every player was in tears talking about it.

Perhaps a new manager is needed for a clean slate put this season behind us and hope that we can improve.

The credit in the bank is the reason Slots still in the job. Right now its 50 50 getting fifth. Too big of a gamble to just let it play out.

The ideal scenario is we fall into 5th place, shake hands with Slot and say thanks for the title and we move on.

I'd take that now tbh, but would it be greedy to spawn a FA Cup win while we're at it? I can't ask for the CL as that's just asking for too much.

Well if he wins the champion's league he won't be going anywhere so it's too much to ask for in that sense. No board is gonna sack a manager who has a league title and champion's league win in his first two seasons.

Reece James out for two months will hamper Chelsea.

Brentford will be back in the mix tonight if they can close out this game. We’re pretty much back to 5 teams fighting for 3 places, and if United don’t drop off again it will be 4 teams fighting for 2, which is not good odds.

It’s still in our own hands, but our hands are covered in fairy liquid.

Christ he has had no luck,will he ever get back to playing again?

Slot mentioned this previously and it’s why they have been so cautious with Rio.

Heavy metal football has it’s casualties.

More talk on twitter tonight that Richard Hughes could be off to Saudi Arabia in the summer.

Kaide Gordon is another one who has had rotten luck

Most of Liverpool's greatest managers came from within, with no managerial experience.

Usually it's just online the ''Slot out'' opinions, but the booing from the Anfield crowd is worrying if you're Slot. He hasn't really endeared himself to Liverpool the place, or fans, he lives in Manchester, his neighbours are all City and United players, yes it means little if you're winning, but when you're losing it's just another stick to beat you with. He won't be getting Key to Liverpool like Klopp did , will never happen.

We have had games this season where everyone did press, and run for whole game, those games did exist this season, and when we do it, we're great. Beating Madrid, draw away to Arsenal, 2-3 win away to Newcastle, beating WH at home, and Newcastle at home, away to Marseille, and Frankfurt , when we're on it ,we're great.

So inconsistent,and it's to do with effort , no excuses for the lack of effort against Spurs

Does that 11 points include late goals?, as we've gained points after the 90th or very close to the 90th minute also, especially earlier in the season, so the nett loss is probably closer to 5 or 6 points. Still shouldn't be happening on such a regular basis, plus opposition teams know this, so keep going until the end, when normally they would just see out the match. We have absolutely no control towards the end of matches and have completely lost the ability to see out a match, it's not a surprise anymore if we concede late, in fact it's expected!

Some positive story at least Hughes looks like he is slinking off to Saudi Arabia. When you consider they had a full year to plan for the transfer window and you look at the squad now, it's a calamity. As someone mentioned already, Cunha was a no brainer signing. It was clear Wirtz would struggle with the physicality of the PL. United went down the road of taking the hottest play maker style players from Germany Kagawa, mikithariyan and Sancho none worked out.

Wirtz has been terrific to watch but in net output its pretty much in line with the projected stats which suggested he would struggle to get double figures. Isak was a signing no fan would have made as we weren't setup to utilise him. Plus his downing tools at Newcastle etc. We know Bradley is injury prone and Frimpong isn't physical enough to play right back.

Slots system tweak has meant Salah is getting 70% less line breaking balls not saying he hasnt been kack with the stuff he has received but was it just expected change the system to slow resets and Salah is going to continue doing what he did.

Macca played 166 games in 3 seasons before this and is asked to cover more ground than he probably should be - he gets swallowed up in possession repeatedly.

We lack physicality and speed. There is also a lack of leadership on the pitch.
