Liverpool banter 3

And why exactly do you want to keep Diaz? And honestly don’t see where the money is going to come for 3 new forward players. Arne Slot is here for the exact reason why Amorim isn’t.

I don't know why anyone is shocked. Aside from the 5 games after klopp announced he was going we have been quite poor all season really.

Played some absolutely dire football sept to Dec tonight was the same as what we saw back then except Salah isn't there to bail us out.

One of the real horrible issues I can see is there are no real match winners in the team right now. Mac keeps getting moved backwards and he's the only person who I could call a match winner.

I don't even know why we need a DM. We did used to have a midfield of Hendo, milner and gini - none of whom are DMS or hard tackling but their collective press was good enough to not need a dedicated DM.

I also have to say I hope slot can get a tune out of szobpslai because since the international break he looks like he's forgotten what football is.

The bright spot is though that slot does like to play with technical midfiders who can pass their way through and I think szoboslai, Jones, mac and Elliot all fit that profile, even if some are out of form.

Defo need a new striker in the summer. Nunez is not the answer. Never has, never will be. 0% composure in front of goal. He's not raw, he's 24 nearly 25 and approaching his peak years. Time to get rid.

Absolutely criminal the way the season has gone down the pan. How are we' still playing slow, ponderous football when it's never got us a result? Klopp and the backroom staff are to blame and it's such a shame.

On a side note, it's these games where i think how truly special Gerrard was for us. It was these types of games we had a legendary player to belt it in or win it on his own. We don't have that. Bellingham could have been it but those types of players come once in a blue moon.

{Ed's Note - Nevada has posted a new article entitled, Is Arne Slot A Good Fit For Liverpool?

Woeful. Our ability to work it through the lines is absolutely horrendous right now.

Our attack shape seems to be 3-2-0-5

It plays around the back for a donkeys age until there's a long pass on. Nobody is getting on it in the half space in front of goal when there's a break on. Salah and Nunez are so far off it. I've been a huge fan of Nunez but he has been absolutely woeful since the international break.

We are actually bad to watch at the moment. I find myself getting bored during games.

I honestly don't know why the players are throwing their arms around we have been awful from start to finish tonight. Can't think of one Liverpool player who has had a decent game. I honestly don't believe we have the mentality to win the league, and we haven't for the last few seasons. One loss to United and it derails our entire season. We don't seem to have the ability to step up a level when we need to. Hopefully the next manager can change that.

Fair play to Everton, took their chances well and deserved the win. I would say hopefully City and Arsenal drop points but tbh we don't deserve the league with our recent performances.

I'm shocked at the inability of our player, bar Diaz, that can actually beat a man one on one.
We used to have a front line where all 3 could.
Atalanta showed how to frustrate this side and Everton copied and pasted.
The amount of backward passes once being pressed is shocking. No one comes deep, turns and tries to take the man on and break the line. It's turgid football.
I love Klopp but he's stubborn at times.
Salah should have been dropped today aswell. Cody jota and Diaz were a better bet.

Well that's that then . the objective from the summer is complete - champions league
Almost a run in but the team imploded from within during the latter stages
Bad decision timing to call time from
The manager
But he's given the fans a fun time over the years

See u all in September for the next adventure.

It's not losing that gets me, it's doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result. I have lost count of the amount of times we have tried to walk the ball into the back of the net when there are 8 defenders in the box. Then if we dare shoot, every single chuffing time, the shot is made straight at a oppositions player because there's 8 defenders in the box. Yet despite that, the management fail to notice this and change anything around. If a armchair fan can see it, and experts getting paid millions a year can't, then what hope is there. I think now that maybe a big change is what we all need and is for the best.
