Why is Salah still in the team?

Because the manager is one of the worst for picking a line up for a match. I thought the Plymouth game last season was a one off. But he is consistently picking the wrong line up for the match in front of him. Wirtz on the last against Palace.

The Endo substitutions, only just realising Chiesa is our best attacker. He seems to not be able to see the wood for the trees. Tbh sounds mad but I hope we lost the next game just so Slot is fired and someone with eyes becomes manager.

Imagine wanting your own football team to lose. Pathetic.

{Ed025's Note - absolutely..

I know I'm mere man and slot is well slot.
Here is the team for the next game and games going forwards, stick with it and build some momentum.

Wirtz Ekitike Chiesa

Jones Gravenberch Szoboszlai

Robo Van Dyk Konate Bradley

Marmaduke

That's what I would like us to stick with for a few games.

I see similarities to Rogers time and Bielsa suggested he play midfield diamond and it transformed us that season. I’d suggest doing similar might get us getting more out of Wirtz, the full backs and get more cover through the middle. I’d go:
Mama
Frimpong Konate VVD Robbo
Grav
Dom. Jones
Wirtz
Chiesa/ Isak. Ekitike

Full backs provide the width and Wirtz gets free role similar to Coutinho under Rodgers.

Marma

Frimpong Konate. VVD. Kerkez

Grav

Szob Jones

Wirtz

Chiesa. Ekitike.

Are we hoping that Gravenberch is fit though?

20 Oct 2025 19:21:27
Agree butter
I think that formation would suit the players we have
Need Wirtz to be able to float behind the lines and to do that Hugo and Isak can stretch the opponents.

I told you guys, the longer slot has had with this group the worse the performances have become.

As soon as we sealed the title last season he implemented this garbage and we all thaught the end of last season was just down to players having too much of a party, but these problems didn't start now, neither is it due to the new players, it's the system and coaching that was implimented after we won the league.

We are forcing a style of play that firstly doesn't fit the league we are in, it doesn't fit the players we have and is easy to play through.

Its like taking a Ferrari and forcing it to go off road just because you enjoy offroading instead of the track. Eventually you will break something in the Ferrari that will be very costly to fix.

Either slot changes the system back to how we won the league or we make a management change but now is the time or else the ferrari will break and it's going to be costly.

Actually the way we played/ the way he experimented with playing when we sealed the title is very different from how we are playing now. Grav would drop in between the center halves, who would split wide, the full backs would push up, our wingers would come inside to the half spaces. That feels a LOT closer to how many of us would have imagined Slot to set the team up with Wirtz coming in and two flying full backs. Maybe folks on here should stop it with this tired diatribe that we started playing this way after beating Spurs and have been crap ever since.

Well, Slot would be seen ima different light of the Isak and Salah and Gakpo chances went in. And I'm not asking about the two that hit the post as well. The 3 standard chances that players of their calibre would normally score. Utd didn't hammer Liverpool.

Am I right in thinking that we need to.

1. Eliminate / reduce number of set pieces we concede.
2. Work on transitions when losing the ball as teams give us possession and squeeze us until we make mistakes and then counter or long ball. The longer you have the ball the chance of a mistake increases. Teams are happy for us to have the ball 40 yards from the goal and in the extreme wide areas. They simply flood the box and just in front with a banks of 5 and 4 and wait for a mistake.
3. Work on increasing the number of goals we score through set pieces.
4. For me, Ekitkeke starts, he has energy and will press better. Isak looks lost off the ball at the moment. Price tags do not guarantee you a starting place.

Tell you what. sometimes you read this site and it shows how little people understand football and how consumed they are by it. we need to do this, we need to do that. bail slot and bring in Eddie Howe, Jonny heitinga was the secret behind the success, all these great players are $h! te, people are laughing at us. is it any wonder when you speak like your entitled to win every game that's played, it’s a game of footy fellas. breathe. Was only a month or two ago everyone was on here quoting the scriptures after losing a fellow red and now your all here asking for heads ?.

Super fan, I get it, but some of us know garbage when we see it, what slot is producing is garbage.

20 Oct 2025 08:34:03
Why is anyone with a modicum of sense and perspective always labelled a superfan?

Does that make the others crappyfans?

Murfo is spot on. A month ago we were hailing the team, the manager, the transfer window as the best ever. I even saw posters saying we’d go unbeaten all season. Now after some very tight but admittedly extremely disappointing losses we should sack everyone and mount their heads on spikes around Anfield.

Football fans are so fickle these days and have lost the ability to handle disappointment. In fact they get angry when they are forced to face disappointment. I’ve seen a few talk about people laughing at us saying how embarrassed they are. Really? Does it bother your ego that much? Don’t have the spine for the fight eh?

It’s amusing to watch but a worrying societal trait. It happens in all walks of life these days. If people don’t get exactly what they want, exactly how they want it they stamp their feet, call for people’s heads and tell anyone who’ll listen how hard done by they are.

That’s why I don’t mind reading your posts robbo ?.

20 Oct 2025 18:38:35
Nice to read from some cool heads. The hysteria here is embarrassing. It's week 8 and we're shopping for a new manager? Really?

You know when Ed025 calls some of us out as entitled? This is why.

19 Oct 2025 22:19:17
Its not my fault. I put the jersey on the kid. It had a gakpo print on the back. My boy did his part. I'm calling shenanigans on those who didn't adhere to the jinx effect.
