I think Harvey Elliott could be huge in Arne Slot's system.

He gets some stick Elliott for absolutely no reason imo, I think he will become a brilliant player and next season will be the start of that.

I really worry for TAA as midfielder in Gareth southgate plan. There are so many ahead of him: phil foden, cole palmer, anthony Gordon, .

Double pivot with Trent alongside Rice. Bellingham, Foden and Palmer in front of them, Kane up front.

Pretty scary when you put it down on paper - Southgate would still manage to make that team boring and ultra defensive though.

I think Leek supports the wrong team. no LFC player, or manager is ever good enough for Leek.

What a sad world Leek must live in.

Shipley kopite - spot on.

Well considering you’ve compared him to Foden, Gordon who play LW primarily this year and that’s the position there best football came from I think he’ll be ok. same as Palmer he plays at 10 or RW. He would never play at CM

England best midfield is Rice, Mainoo, Jude with Trent and Maddison coming off the bench.

Having a cheeky Erdinger or two for Kloppo.

Question for the match day goers to PL or any other pro leagues in Europe.

When there is a VAR review, are the visuals played on the screen as the ref reviews?

I was at A-league semi-final last night and the VAR review of a potential handball was playing on the stadium screens for the crowd. The ref was meant to explain his decision which unfortunately had a mic error at the time.

Anyways, just wondered if other leagues have at least the replays on the stadium screen showing during the VAR review.

Defence is poor Gomez, VVD both played like it was a practice game and the midfield allows the opposition too much time and space on the ball.
Liverpool over achieved this season, Slot needs a top DM, top RW (Salah replacement) CB, LB and a striker to be able to challenge for the title .

The third goal I can live with. Yes, it could have been slightly better defended but those happen in a football game.

I have to say I loved Trent. First of the contract players I'd sign up. He is such a key player for us. My issue is though, there are games where he lacks sufficient effort defensively. Sometimes he is on it defensively and then there are games like yesterday when he goes through the motions defensively. I know Quansah got beat for that first goal. And perhaps too many players went for the cross along the goaline with no one going for the cut back. But my main issue with that goal was that Trent did absolutely nothing. He never tried to get back into a defensive position to cut out options. It is really frustrating with him. He can defend but sometimes he can't be bothered. It really annoys me when he plays like this because he can do it all. Massively hoping for that new contract and we see the best of him next season under new manager.

Second goal is why I hate seeing Macca in defensive midfield. Macca takes chances on the ball to create things. The DM position does not have much cover defensively for lost possession. He is a number 8 and 10. A bloody good one. He is an average 6. Just play him in position and we'll be grand.

If he can’t be bothered then he shouldn’t have his contract renewed, you don’t get to pick and choose when you can be bothered to put effort in. Personally I don’t think he does enough beyond the occasional Hollywood pass or very rare long range goal. Feels to me that the time is right for both parties to go their separate ways, Bradley is more than capable of replacing him and is never found short of effort or willingness to get stuck in.

Trent doesn't seem to want to put his body on the line also. Plenty of times he's been beaten in the air not even putting in a challenge.

The Villa game sums up our season. Can’t defend, miss loads of chances. Easily cut through, don’t look solid. Inverted full back philosophy not working. Hopefully Slot will address this. Arsenal can defend, why can’t we?

13 May 2024 22:28:26
Because they have a good coach that understands the game.
I'm dunking on Pep by the way, not Klopp. Klopp hasn't coached this team for at least 2 years.

14 May 2024 09:29:10
Our forwards did their part. Scoring three goals away from home to Villa is no mean feat. Our defence (or lack of it) and lack of top class defensive midfielder did for us.

15 May 2024 04:47:18
We haven't been able to defend for two seasons now. Even Sheffield missed good chances against us at home too.

Be interested to know what people thought of tonight's game 3 : 1 up and costing not anymore. I know its a nothing game but come on lads how poor are we once again defensively. There are an awful lot of players on holiday mode out there tonight sooner the better this season ends. Be interesting to see what happens with the squad next season an awful lot needs to change with attitude and commitment from certain players who for me just don't seem arsed at times. I will miss Klopp for everything he has done for us he is and always be a legend but we have gone stale and need a change hopefully Slot can settle in quickly or else we could find next season very very difficult.

14 May 2024 00:01:08
I don't think it's holiday mode it's the second game in a row that the subs have come on and we've not defended. Giving up easy possession for their last two goals.

Disapointed, it seems like some are on the beach to me some look like they don't want to be there and some running their legs off.
