    Imo Slot is 100% a goner. He lost Anfield, he lost most of the fan base and it has looked like he's lost many of the players too. There is no way the owners are not patently aware of this and imo are public backing him until seasons end and then he ll get the bullet. Regardless of a title win, with that outlay in the summer and forgetting results even, the level of performance and the lack of desire has been embarrassing. We are abysmal to watch, we are mentality and physically weak. For us to progress and get back to where we were, he categorically needs to go.

    Massive changes in the summer, looking forward to seeing the new iteration of LFC under a new guy and hopefully some new exciting players. There's still lots of talent there personnel wise but we lack physicality which really needs to be addressed and we just need a new guy with that gets the club and the fan base, to get the passion and desire back and that won't happen under Slot.
    I think so too

    If the fans can see it, the owners can

    We can't afford to slip out of CL places and it looks like, given the way we play, that's a risk next season

    I really hope you are right! I agree about the changes needed in the summer - sadly that just means another season in transition. Hopefully, Slot-ball is easier for the squad to forget than Klopp-ball!

    Not sure I would have played Chiesa more. He just doesn’t have the pace to play out wide, which has been his preferred position. Not sure he has the passing to be a 10 or the movement and finishing to be a 9.

    Still can’t believe we didn’t make any additions in January.

    Yeah we do tend to build them up but they will never get a go with this muppet in charge. Gakpo playing week after week when struggling for form over Rio is criminal.

    Rio has said himself in interviews that he was not ready for too many regular games this season so not going to use him as a stick to beat Slot with.

    Is only over the past couple months that Rio has even moved up to doing close to what the senior players do in training.

    Sooner build him up right this season than rush him in and risk him getting injuries that stall his future progress.

    Also think that during a not so good season there will always be more made of young players and many will be spoken off as if they are genuine solutions despite very little to back that up.

    Did not see many looking for the young players to be put on in place of seniors last season, no clamour to give them "safer" run outs within a perfroming team. Same as when we were going over 90 points a season with Klopp, we were not saying the promising young talents need to be getting even more game time. No we were enjoying the ride and wanting the guys doing the business to be be playing each week.

    Think many of our current crop of promising players have done very little to suggest they are ready to take on senior players. Rio is probably the only one. Leoni too if we count him as a promising young player given he is only 19.

    Very few of the rest I would have confidence in, in terms of them coming into the team and holding their own, especially coming into a disjointed team if their positions were in midfield or at the back.


    Gakpo for me should have played less, but I would have been using Chiesa more (with Rio as a sub for him) or even putting a combination of Kerkez and Robertson on the left flank at times. Biggest misfire we have had in attack this season was starting both Salah and Gakpo on wide in the same games.

    One we could start imo as long as we had someone doing something different on the other flank, but two listless wide players both looking to slowly cut in just made our game even more plodding again as the ball could not be released forward quickly and defences were not being stretched.

    The vast majority of our so called promising youth players never make it with us. Is nothing new and is the same under pretty much every LFC manager.


    There is always a list of young players that we make out to be nailed on stars of the near future for us that then just leave and usually don't go on to be much elsewhere either.


    Pacheco, Suso, the Gems, Wisdom, Ibe, Elliot and so on. The list is a long one and the only ones that do break into our first team and become proper starters tend to be the ones that are genuinely top class and too good tonot make it.

    We are not a club that can gamble on giving too many minutes to so called promising young players unless those players are already at the standard of senior players. Different for clubs in lower divisions/leagues or clubs that tend to stay in the midtable or lower season in season on.

    I can't see any positive of keeping Slot... So out of his depth, and doesn't show any drive or passion... Cut the pointless person asap, and let's find someone else that actually seems to give a ****

The problem is we are seeing very little evidence to suggest this is the case. I’m not saying we should have won the league. The problem for me is that basics are all wrong, LFC should always be about hard work and humility as a staple. Both have gone awol.

    He tried to copy PSG while the PL is moving towards Stoke. It’s a bruising physical league of low blocks, set pieces and ****housery. Marking space and not pressing is not working at all in this league, and the lack of strength, pace and stamina, particularly in midfield, makes the whole team look like a bunch of old men. And squad wise, you need two players for every position and you need to keep them all fit and playing semi regularly, and that’s the opposite of slot’s philosophy. He is a classic technical Dutch manager and is just not suited to to the current premier league.

    If there was a plan it has failed monumentally.
