Agree, the drop off is just so huge, poor form can only explain so much. It looks like they don't believe in his ability to turn it around.

Was similar under Rodgers, we broke all the wrong types of records.

Ignore the opportunity for a quick counter, let the opposition get everyone back into their defensive positions, and slowly move upfield, move ball side to side with little or no penetration, over commit in the hope to create an opening, a loose pass or interception now carries significantly more risk, we look to force the play, lose the ball and the opposition are running at our defence or worse in behind and with only our goalkeeper to beat. We have been seeing it all season, combined with our inability to defend set pieces, there are a number of factors, but it's primarily poor coaching and setup.

I just wish it hadn't been programmed to laugh at all its own jokes.

It's like watching a kid getting carried away with the tactical slider on Fifa... all-out attack. Sends the wrong message to everyone, fans think he has no idea, can only imagine what our players must think of said approach and by extension, his ability to get us out of this situation.

It does feel like he's tried to reinvent the wheel, failed, but won't to accept that his approach isn't working. The most damning thing for me, well other than clearly not being able to motivate large parts of the squad is the "let's just keep chucking on attackers and hope something happens" approach he adopts when we're losing. It's terrible management, and sadly I just don't see how the situation improves.

He's done, unfortunately nothing in the last few weeks has made me think differently. It's sad, not something I expected at all. With the amount of turnover in the squad I was expecting some issues, but nothing like this. There are lots of question marks over his tactical setup and rigidity, in addition his limited use of squad players highlights his lack of ability to motivate players. Klopp was always going to be levels above, but that's something he was much more adept at, he was able to extract performances from a larger selection of the squad.

Agree, posted similar in another thread. He's too wide, there is limited movement around him, it's been the same since the start of the season. We used to create lots of opportunities for him and that's no longer the case.

It feels like Slot is trying to force him into the team at the moment and it's too our detriment, had a great game midweek and some okay moments today but his issues currently outweigh the positives. He's clearly been given license to roam, which when starting wide left creates gaps. His pressing is poorly timed, there were multiple instances today where he and Robertson were not coordinated, which forced Robbo out of position. I think he needs to be relegated to impact sub in the league, allow him to adjust to the pace. Plus for the love of all that's holy please stop under hitting passes.

I think that's what he tried earlier in the season, Mo and Cody really wide with Wirtz alongside Isak or whomever was at 9. We all saw the issues with that approach. Even now, Mo is still stupidly wide, it's just ridiculous, he hardly ever has anyone on the overlap. It's part of the reason why he just mostly resorts to trying to cross the ball.

I'm surprised that Gakpo didn't start ahead of Wirtz, plus it would have been good to see Jones on for Macca at the start of the second half. Appreciate that Wirtz had a great game in midweek but his lack of physicality is a real issue.

I'm still pissed at Wirtz not playing in Dom rather than Mo a few moments before

We've been poor but that decision is f***ing pathetic and it gets worse the more I see it, cheating w***ers.

Their GK had a clear view of the ball, was never getting there

Another pathetic decision

Ffs Ibou

Re the post match stuff with Rooney, tis a shame Slot didn't come out first as then it would have been like something out of Mortal Kombat. Finish him!

How could I forget Bradley, amazing. Need more of that!

What a performance, Courtois kept them in it. Great contributions all over the pitch. So glad to see Mo continuing to look more like his old self, Wirtz best game. Dom outstanding.

Jones, wtf was that

Could do with a couple of subs, need fresh legs

Macca is starting to look tired, plus is on a yellow, is Jones on the bench?

Yes Macca! Even then they tried to disallow it, cheating w***ers

This f***ing ref is buying every dive from Madrid

It's always f***ing Courtois
