Thanjk you.

I think our midfield options are good enough, it's full backs and attackers that need the investment. I don't think there's any attacker in our squad that couldn't be upgraded, and I haven't thought that for a very long time.
Agree. And on bringing in fresh legs at fullback.
However Robbo was excellent tonight imo. As was Trent, and who knows what that injury means for him?
Our ‘injury free’ season could have really done with Bradley tonight. We were stretched at the back when Konate went off.
‘The team is in trouble next season’ is the wildest take of the night
Well clearly strengthen and are currently running away with the League.
We lost 1 nil to a brilliant team to a really **** goal. Outwith that we were excellent particularly in the 90 mins.
OK, whatever. I think we've done brilliantly compared to last year. But the level all season has been nowhere near our previous teams under klopp. It's basically the same ****ing team with ageing players.
If salah doesn't score or assist we struggle. There's a good chance he's off.
The rest of the forward line aren't good enough. There's noway we sign 5 or 6 players. So yes, I think we'll str7ggle to get top 4. But I don't ****ing care, as I want the league and then the rest can do whatever it wants to. The league is all that matters.

I think we need to really invest in the squad in the summer. We haven't spent since 2023. I didn't think we played badly today, we did well. We gave 100% and left it all out there on the pitch. But that PSG squad is very talented, give credit where it's due.
I don't think we played badly, I just don't think we really created any great chances after the first 10-15 mins, I never really felt like we were going to score, we had a good spell for much of the 2nd half but I can't really remember their keeper making a save of note, closest we came was Quansah's header against the post from a freekick
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 dunno.. I think winning the league, but not the European Cup is a decent first season outcome for Slot. I don't care about the **** All Cup or the League Cup, so I reckon it's not so bad.

Defence is really stretched for Sunday if Konate is out. Looks like we will be missing TAA and Bradley at RB, Gomez who could have played there is injured too, Quansah who came on there tonight will need to play CB if Konate is out as there's only Quansah and VVD fit at CB, could end up with Endo or Jones playing RB on Sunday.

Easy to knee jerk after getting knocked out but we've over achieved massively
The narrative that we're an average pl winning team is our there and I don't entirely disagree. Look at the players that we're carrying, or who are in meh form, it shouldn't be possible to win the league like that. But everyone is in the same boat and we are the most effective team at the moment. We will deserve the league, no doubt, but we'll need to improve to do it again.
