If we kept konate on we could throw the big man up top utd style.

Looking for a spot of control and ability from wirtz. One flick the rest bang average at best.

Looking for a spot of control.and passing from jones. nothing.

Looking for a bit of intensity from anyone.
Lacking

Looking for a bit of class from salah. Zero. Pace gone, finish gone.

This is a scratch side under serious pressure with no cbs and we cant do a ****ing thing to hurt them

As for van dijk acting the big cock in the ptichwith cucurella. Useless.

No fitness. No drive, no technically sound players.or tactics.

The fitness is a serious issue here
We're **** will do mate.

Time for Slot to really earn his plaudits

I think we will click it’s just how much damage before that happens
Let’s hope it’s against Utd

Its a cascading failure in belief.

Rb on a card. Move the 10 to rb.
Cb is walking, take your 6 and move him to cb.

By then all control is destroyed. But there wasnt much anyway.

Its hammering square pags into round holes to fix whatever issue he sees in his head.

Left the rb he bought on the bench.
Left the cb he has on the bench.

Did the moves fix anything? No.

But again wirtz, I dont get it. Everywhere but nowhere. Never close to anyone. strange decisions and some schoolboy errors as well.

As for salah. We.cant carry passengers like this. If you cant run your man any more and you sre being carried defensively by the rest then thsts a big problem.

I see why Klopp liked to have all the summer activity done early and if they didn't come in early he didn't want them.

Our pre-season was piss poor and trying to integrate during the season is foolish. Robertson didn't start for about 5months when he joined

The start of our pre-season was also delayed a week
 
Shame. Didn’t think we were too bad. Go 1-0 down to a wonder goal. Nice goal back - give Isak benefit that knew exactly what he was doing.

Then just switched off at the back - holding onto 1-1 with only 2 defenders isn’t ideal. Not sure sure didn’t bring Gomez on instead of Endo so at least had a proper cb or rb.

Some odd decisions, Isak hit in the face harder than gala player mid week but no pen. Szobo booked for kicking the ball in a 50/50, making no contact but Cucurella going down holding his head.

Gakpo then being wiped out by Gusto in dangerous area and somehow not a foul.

Created more then enough chances today, Salah shooting boots missing, Jones shocking effort late on and unfortunately Robbo couldn’t make anything when got into box.

Then one switch off in last minute again.

Not saying it was a pen, but the hand in the face from Reece.on Gakpo, was pretty much the same as the one that was given against Dom vs.Galatasary in the CLq

Getting really pissed off with Chrystal Tipps doing that in every ****ing game. Anthony Taylor was Anthony Taylor today - not the reason we lost, but being a constant extra drag on a team that has enough of its own anchors atm without another one added to it. :emoticon-0112-wonde
 
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 with Slot 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.

It's always been a club thing to back the manger and we've had tough times with other managers but you could see the ideas and it wasn't always his fault because he hadn't been backed with the right players but on this occasion he has been backed and needs to sort this out very quickly.
