Chewie

Look.. He's drained the energy out of all of us, but being fair when you watch the clip he's giving a shout out to Freddie woodman and all the lads are on board with it

Nuts ain't it! He should have been alert to that

Absolutely... The reality is that the draw to play everton, managed as they are by the winner who even doesn't have to win to be a winner, is really hard lines

Don't want united to win But it's just far far better for us if chelsea lose.

It's absolute comeuppance and it's also insanely funny.. A cosmic blend of complete lack of self awareness and also the total gonads on the man

Nothing will beat Woy saying "I don't really know what I'm doing here..".. Nothing to do with me guv the morning after England went out of euro 2016

That's Salah, Robbo, probably Ali who've played their last game in Europe for us. Not unreasonable to suggest that the same is true for Joe, Macca, Chiesa, maybe Curtis Not unreasonable to hope it's true for Gakpo On the upside we still get to look forward to Isak playing his first game

Fair enough.. Didn't make that connection

At least now Arne has had the type of game he prefers

Shearer pretty candid and blunt about the manager there basically saying that relationship's gone as well

Gakpo could still be the hero in all this

Well that would be a bold move!

It's a bold strategy Cotton...

I don't mind it strategically nor in the sense that, for Arne, what has he got to lose? It's s*** or bust and he may as well go out fighting giving the players they wanted one big game together to see if it can actually work.

A thought, weirdly for the first time, occurs. Remember when every now and then for league Cup games Pep linders would get the gig and there would be the novelty of the coach giving you all his coach speak and coach smarts, and on the whole no one really cared cos it was a novelty. Well this is like having that every week. Twice a week. And the novelty has worn off.

I've no problem with this.. We're two up and on Tuesday play the CL quarter final. If the squad can't win from here that'd be on brand and shocking

That second clip is wild! "The problem with this question is that it leads to an answer I don't want to give"

There's a lot of double speak doing the rounds -we hate low block defensive football, preferring games like against PSG when two teams play football and attack each other (a rewriting of the reality of the first leg last season btw) - we can't compete against PSG so we play a back 5 and have no shots.. - Slot appointed by the brains trust as the 'continuity candidate', the man identified to match the current players and style of play and thus cause the least disruption.. - there was always (seemingly) an understanding that a complete rebuild would be needed given the end of an era (and the second of these - if not both - land at all of their doors.. Slot, Hughes, Edwards) And let's not forget that Jurgen stayed on one more year so that we would not be left in a mess, proven by winning the league with strong leaders and new players in the team, and a backup cast of young players desperate to support and one or two supplanting the starters. We had continuity, sought to evolve this by bringing in new players to a title winning team, and have ballsed the whole thing right up. We can't now say the design was to tear it all down and rebuild.

Arne knows how to conclude a rousing farewell.. "He's won everything at this club, served his club and really loves this club. [It's] been a great nine years for him. This season, he didn't play as much as he was used to and as a result of that, he's leaving."* *he did precede this ending with these words of tribute... But boy he didn't half stick the landing with ".. and as a result of that, he's leaving" the end... "He's had many great seasons here not only as a player but as a great person as well. Every team-mate of his will tell you how funny he is, how great he is," Slot said. "What I remember most about him is the intensity he plays with. I can remember Robbo making a press from the left-back position to the right wing a few years ago and I showed it to my players I was working with back then.

That's beautiful, and I have no doubt this seminal moment will be to the fore, hopefully years from now, in his tribute and eulogy on your sad demise.

It's with great sadness that I too am announcing today that I shall be continuing my support, love and/or loathing, of Liverpool Football Club up to and beyond the end of this season.

I feel overlooked here

Aye, that's where I'm at, though it's more of a melancholic lament and resigned acceptance that the party is probably over. There was a period of time before klopp when I figured we simply would not return to winning the league, being the best at home nevermind Europe and the world. Jurgen changed all that and when he announced his departure I figured it was going to be a return to being the 4th - 7th best team in England. Then we went and won the league, without him. It looked like we'd found the formula. Sustained success. Ongoing greatness. Increasingly that's looking more and more like the actual last dance for the klopp era, albeit with the guidance for one season of a new coach. Maybe we can turn this around quickly, but we need to pivot now. Not necessarily today, but the next step we take is absolutely huge. It either confirms the party is over and it's a long return to 4-7th or we're back in the fight. It's easier to get back in the fight from the fringes of 4th than from the prolonged fringes of 7th. So I'm numb to last night for what it was. I'm 50/50 growing to 60/40 resigned/'hopeful' (wrong word but can't think of a better one) about where we go next

Totally, but hopefully the ceasefire will provide space for cooler heads to prevail
