2024/25 Season

learning curve. He brings us the league and that's an incredible achievement. Gonna be a busy summer with ins and outs. I do wonder if next season will be the transition that we all thought this season would be.

It's not won.

Given the last week or so - and how badly out of form and toothless we’re looking it’s not a certainty. Just glad we’ve got a long break to wash it all away.

We talk about depth but we’ve got a huge wage bill, massive, so either we’re massively overpaying a lot of our squad or we’re at the limit budget wise and need a bit of a wages rethink.

We can’t add more bodies into the squad unless we shake up our wages.

[Sus]

It’s definitely not won yet. 5 wins has to be the focus now, starting with Everton

Well, we can't be paying anyone, never mind 30+ year olds, £400k a week and have a balanced squad, of that I'm convinced.

Chiesa has looked lively in every single appearance barring the cup game at Plymouth. Every one looked poor there.

His attitude looks bang on. Why so few minutes? He finished so clinically today.

Last few weeks tiredness has kicked in our performance levels have dropped, can't help but feel it's due to only really using about 15 players, we need to expand the number of players Slot trusts and rotate more next season. This season we need to give players like Elliott and Endo more minutes

I think it has been a slow building up of his fitness I think he has been assessed and his fitness was much worse than we thought, we have basically spent the season getting him fit and am hoping he will play more in the remaining games. I don't think we have been doing all this fitness work to let him go in the summer, i could be wrong but I don't think it makes sense on any level

[red g]

hopefully we can improve the depth and the manager will put his faith in more players.

I am sure he will once he gets more of his own players. Slots 1st Premier league season hopefully he learns for next one.

We've two weeks + worth of chill out now, esp. for those players not involved in these meaningless national games. Should be enough rest for us to close the season out, and then I think some major surgery will be required.

[Sus]

Will be a long international break for us now

Arne ****ed it up imo
Sountampton at home and he didn't rotate. Bad move.

3 days later we are out on our feet against PSG in extra time. 4 days later we are ****ed against ****in Newcastle ffs.

Against sountampton, Virgil and Konate should have played 45 mins each ffs. Gravenberch and Macca should have been rotated with Endo playing the game. Cheisa should have played 90 v Southampton ffs

I feel that is probably a bit of naivety in the way the English game works and/or a lack of trust in his squad players, I feel this is the approach Klopp would probably have taken, we will need to see how Slot adapts in future.

[Charly]

Not rotating is a bit 1980s. Bit confused as to why this is even a discussion.

[Norbs]

It's not won.
