    Tbf, only Szobbo deserves to keep his place on last night's showing, and that includes Mammory and Gravy, especially in that 2nd half. Not practical to bench the whole team, though, or Virgil would be out as well.

    Grav needs to sit in front of the defence like last season.
    Mac needs to get his energy back.
    Konate can **** off, clear he's no desire to stay and decided not to bother, should have been sold imo
    Salah is done, one last hurrah last season. Sell in the summer.
    Frimpong is a RB or not, if not Bradly can't be relied upon as everyone knew he's made of paper straws.

    Front three should be Wirtz, Isak, Ekitike.
    The midfield three should stop trying to be forwards and protect the defence, if they did that the fullbacks wouldn't be out of position all the time as they would have cover when they go forward.

    We've got Calvin Ramsey. Not much first team experience, granted, but he's a fully fit, available RB.

    As an aside, after winning our first five games, some people were saying 'Trent who?' Now it's 'Trent where are you'. (I'm not calling for him back, to be clear. )

    You miss Trent

    i understand it’s hard to admit but that’s the real issue

    He was your best playmaker

    I genuinely think you are looking too deep
    But that’s what this forum is for
    Those players are good players
    We miss workhorses
    As much as he was derided a Hendo
    A Kuyt
    A Diaz
    A Nunez

    we shall see

    Not sure
    It’s hilarious how the narratives change
    For the past five years non Liverpool fans have said how **** Trent is
    While Liverpool fans claim he was world
    Class
    Suddenly Trent Leaves and Liverpool were a one man team

    I think it’s a number of things

    Missing Trent is irrelevant as he didn’t want to stay - we have the same issue with Konate

    Madrid are a much bigger club I cannot blame anyone for wanting to go

    I don’t think it’s Trent we miss I think our balance is wrong

    For years people have been saying Trent can’t defend but the gaffa was happy with it

    I think Salah is the key on a lot of levels
    I would have gotten rid of Salah but I would have gotten rid of Gerrard so I know I think differently

    I also think the Jota thing had a massive effect on the group
    Should have done - probably not but - i think it’s had an effect

    I don’t buy into the narrative being pushed about the money spent because of the amount we sold

    Nunez and Diaz were very hard working players and helped to cover for Salah

    The players are all there - they just need a new system
    Trying to show horn them in isn’t working imho

    Start by solidifying the defence and work from there for me
