They can’t replace his attacking influence

that’s why they got Slobz there in the hope to emulate Trent’s dangerous attacking play

were discussing it on the radio earlier

instead Slobz game has been ruined and he is by far their best midfield player

Last season for Slot was like the Ranieri season at Lesta

riding the crest of a wave

will get found out this season

The way sucky turned on his boi Trent was like a man who’d walked in on his bird getting spit roasted by two Muslim men.

I’ve never seen somebody turn on their idol in such a vitriolic way.

Turns out he was Pool’s best player. And without him they are getting found out.

Let’s be honest, slot got lucky last season with Arsenal having so many injuries and no striker. And Man City having a poor season.

The cracks are showing this season and we’re only 7 games in. Expect to see slot scratching his face off like Pep by Xmas
 
Liverpool have looked defensively vulnerable ever since the Charity Shield ...

Makes for an intriguing title race - right now I wouldn't back against Citeh ... squad depth and undoubtedly the best manager plying his trade in this particular League ...

Well Man U lose games at Old Trafford all the time now so it clearly isn't what it used to be. Sadly facts defeat you.

Although you won today so I don't know why you're having a wah wah.

Seriously, lol

You know absolutely **** all about anything, shut the **** up.

Concentrate on your minute insignificant irrelevant pond.

Should have ****ing known I couldn't trust Saints to not let me down.

Excellent result for your lot today tbf.
Stewart went off after 30mins. Injured again?
 
Monga and Fatawu superb today ... just need a striker in Jan and I'd fancy us for one of the automatics - subject to points deductions, of course :)
 
With the problem being very much the manager it's worrying. No matter what players you have if the issue is the manager quote simply not being up to the job there is no solution other than a new manager.

I didn't like what I was seeing very early on but the team was just doing it's thing and got us over the line. Whenever it did go wrong that's when you saw the cracks, there were no tactical solutions and Slot often just threw more attackers on. Yesterday we ended up with our DM at CB and another midfielder at RB when we had both those positions on the bench. It makes no sense.

In general it's always back the manager but I find his decisions and tactics very hard to get behind.

You've touched on something that I think is a real problem - not specific to your club - leaving players on the bench for players not specialist for that positional change - has to damage the confidence of those overlooked and could even lead to disharmony in the squad as it's more suggestive of favouritism rather than tactical nous..
