No doubt someone will see Angry Anderson and think that is Slot getting the chop
But it ain't, it's ten more years for the Bald one. All aboard the Slot train, Baby. Wooooooo!

In his post match yesterday he said he knew exactly what to do to improve. Interviewer asked if he could share what that was and Arne said no.
Wonder what he meant. Also Mo’s interview with Stevie, says something about not letting the culture slip that we have built up in Klopps time and his reason for leaving is due to things going on behind the scenes.
Sounds like the squad is falling apart! Last years player departures plus Slots tactics/training & methods have brought us a level or 5 down!
Which manager would instil an elite level again?

My concerns aren't so much the performances on the pitch which have been poor. I think you can accept some mitigation for that, the Jota situation, the lack of an appropriate squad (which isn't his fault). I can accept that he doesn't want to play that way but has been forced into it because of injuries, the fall off of Salah which no one was expecting and the injuries to other players who would have been key to how we had hoped to play (Isak, Ekitike) and injuries to the likes of Bradley who have forced us to play player out of position etc. But for me even with the players we have had availiable we have under performed this season.
The thing that concerns me most is the seemingly changing of attitudes, standards and level of professionalism etc. Salah has talked about this recently and his 'role' in people being in the gym before training etc. There have been a few 'unprofessional' incidents which I don't think have been dealt with appropriately by the management or senior players in the squad (Ekitike red card and shirt swap, Szoboszlai having a go at the fans). It seems like the players get more time off now, and while managers typically do that to reward players, with the performances the players have put in this season I don't think they have earned that. I don't know if that this is the case but with Slot's living situation it is easy for people to be cynical and say he is giving players time off because he wants time off rather than time off being what is beneficial to the players or the team. For me the letting players have time to go on holiday after the title was won but before the end of the season last year was a problem. Standards have dropped and to be honest I don't see how you get them back without significant changes in the leadership/management of the side.The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

I think it's important to look at the whole season, we've been maddeningly inconsistent all season, we've had poor results against the top sides (Arsenal, Chelsea, Utd, City) - W1 – D1 – L5, so far, with both Manchester sides completing the double over us.
Good performances are few and we've been lucky as well, our first five we scraped through. If FSG continue with this we're heading for a change in October probably at the latest.* The above is posted in my opinion. Feel free to disagree.

Tbh a number of the players need to be looked at in the exact same manner. Yes the same mitigating factors that apply to Slot apply to hem, but many of the same criticisms that Slot has earned for himself the players have done likewwise.
There is a lot of stuff that the players cannot point their collective fingers at the manager over. Stuff on the pitch that is within their own control and many of them have let the club and supporters down as well.I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

He is one of the greatest ever players to have turned out for us, but he is such a little bitch when it comes to his whinging.
As great as he has been for us, he has played a part of his own this season in terms of being utter muck on the pitch and causing plenty of his own off pitch dramas.I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

3 days off training a week and we wonder why players can't run.
And Alonso off to Chelsea.
Could be grim watching us waste a summer backing Slot. Although no contract gives me a glimmer of hope.

There seems to be a bit more criticism from the press today about Slot. James Pearce mentioned this.
"It's fair to ask questions about the preparations. A lot of the players had enjoyed mini breaks in Europe after being given some time off after the win over Crystal Palace. If Slot thought that a breather would do them good then he was mistaken. Instead they were lethargic and lacked intensity!"

I reckon he will unload when he leaves. I am interested to hear what he has to say. Things are clearly ****ed. Players are not going to.be happy.Originally posted by Doc_Piptorious View PostHe is one of the greatest ever players to have turned out for us, but he is such a little bitch when it comes to his whinging.

It’s an absolute joke. Players and agents are laughing all the way to the bank and ‘work’ is a holiday camp where the most strenuous part of the day is lifting the lattes to their gobs. Meanwhile Edwards and Hughes couldn’t give a toss as they will be off to the next payday next year. Probably Chelsea along with Alonso.Originally posted by peterbread View PostThere seems to be a bit more criticism from the press today about Slot. James Pearce mentioned this.
