@anfieldforge the game yesterday was a great performance all round to be sure - but i reckon it's only because his ass is in a sling right now - if we dont see this in the PL on saturday then we know its just for CL cause that's what will save his job
Arne Slot was unusually animated on the touchline last night. At times, you could have been forgiven for thinking it was a bald Jürgen Klopp patrolling the technical area. It was a real departure from his usual calm and measured demeanour, where he tends to stay composed and let things unfold in front of him.
On this occasion, though, there was a visible intensity about him. Whether that was driven by pressure or frustration is open to interpretation, but the context is hard to ignore. The Anfield boos after the Tottenham game, a season that has fallen well below expectations, and a growing sense that scrutiny around his position was increasing. Managers do not usually change their touchline behaviour without reason.
What matters most is how it translated onto the pitch. Liverpool responded with arguably their most complete performance of the season. There was more urgency, more aggression, and a sharper edge both in and out of possession. The crowd felt back with the team as well, which has not always been the case this season, and that connection made a noticeable difference.
If this was a manager feeling the heat and responding in the right way, then it is exactly what you want to see. If that added fire on the touchline helps raise standards and demands more from the players, then it could prove to be a turning point. It is only one performance, but it felt like a step in the right direction, and now the challenge is to build on it and show it was not just a one off.
@ClaireMax i never played past what is now called Gen 1 - so a lot of the newer designs just look stupid and some of them look like people tried to draw Gen 1 from someone elses description
I do love Pokémon, I grew up with it and was OBSESSED as a kid, but past like gen 2 I’m basically like “who the fuck are these guys and why are they household objects”
@kwalker1009 im not keen on the OG dragonball or GT - but everything else is fine - except Evolution - that thing needs to be dumped into the fires of mount doom
