Liverpool Fans hear me out: Would you agree to swap Cody Gakpo for Julian Alvarez from Atletico Madrid?

@slardar4pb @Mobyhaque1 I think the fact that our players get out run is actually a combination of them not being trained well enough and also because Slot is so loathsome that none of our players actually want to put in a shift for him. He needs sacking asap!

@Mobyhaque1 Its not that we want him. But its not his own fault. You cant make 10 players run more, if you drop everyone who doesnt, who would play?

How does anyone watch this sh*t for 90+ mins and say you want to keep Arne Slot for next season? Some of you enjoy this? Imagine getting paid millions to perform like this and coach a team like this. Arne Slot needs to be fired this international break. Enough.

@callumcrosby1 @AndyGni Being a fan of the club means you want the best for the club and that means if you think the best thing is to sack the head coach, then fans are entitled to that opinion. Or do you never criticise, no matter how bad the situation is?

@AnfieldWatch I'm edging towards no, but with Slot in charge it's still too early to say. Let's see what happens under someone who knows how to set up a team.

• Alisson • Van Dijk • Kerkez • Szoboszlai • Gravenberch • Wirtz • Ekitike • Isak • Leoni • Nyoni • Ngumoha Those are the only players I'm remotely bothered about still being here next season. The rest can all bounce as far as I'm concerned.

@SamueILFC Frimpong was a poor signing. He's not strong enough to play right back in the PL and his crossing is not good enough for him to be played as a winger. Assuming we get a new manager then I wouldn't be shocked to see Frimpong offloaded in the summer

@LFCApproved Frimpong may be a right back...but not in the PL, for which he is far too lightweight. Unfortunately a very poorly thought through signing imo. But none of our players look better under Slot, so until we get a new coach/manager it's hard to say who really needs replacing.

I like Frimpong, but he’s not a right-back. I like Ibou, but he’s a liability and out of contract. I like Gravenberch, but he’s not a 6 or starter. I love Mo, he’s a club legend but, he’s slowing down. Issue, the RIGHT side.

@WastefulBlimp Having been a fan for some 45 years or so I can honestly say this is the most boring football I have witnessed us play over such a prolonged period. It's like Slot has purposefully decided to try and suck all the fun out of our game and unfortunately he has largely succeeded.

@frankveryfrank @YazzLFC It's clear the players aren't exactly running through doors for Slot, whilst his defensive mindset is not the Liverpool way and we make for a dire watch. Sticking with someone who isn't working just because 'we don't sack managers' isn't a sign of strength but of weakness.

@YazzLFC So, they sack him. Replace him with who? When Xabi Alonso is the main target, yet you’re unable to deduce the Xabi Alonso wants to wait till the summer before starting with a new club after RM didn’t work out. Not rocket science to work that one out.

Yazz LFC@YazzLFC·
Richard Hughes and Michael Edwards deserve just as much blame as Arne Slot. It’s absolutely pathetic that they didn’t have the backbone to sack him around the New Year when there was still a chance to salvage the season. That lack of decisiveness has cost us dearly. No leadership, no accountability just a complete failure from the people running the club. Absolute Shambles.

@dannymcnulty11 Take him off for who exactly? Frimpong is only option and he's playing at rightback and will need to be subbed on 60mins as he can't play much longer coming back from injury.

I'd bring on Jones for Gravenberch and Ngumoah for Gakpo at half time. Jones will show for the ball a lot more and sprint a lot while Gravenberch is on a tightrope with his yellow card. Ngumoah for obvious reasons - add some excitement into a dull slow team performance.

@TouchlineX He's pretty much right. The lack of players who can dribble past opponents nowadays is very limited. Instead teams are packed with players who are athletes first and footballers second. Yeah they can run all game, but barely have any memorable moments in the game.

🚨🗣️ 𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Ruud Gullit is RIPPING into the current game of football! "I have decided to STOP watching football. I don't enjoy our sport anymore. I watched Arsenal vs Chelsea, what an absolute GARBAGE match of football!" "I see players trying to create corner kicks, trying to create throw-ins, I see ball boys ready to give towels to the players. Football has become absolutely HORRIBLE. I hope that this is not the path we are heading at." "I am waiting for players who will take on defenders again, someone like Lamine Yamal. I am missing the joy! I just don't enjoy football anymore." "Everyone is executing tasks on the pitch. Where are the players dribbling? Where are the players with b*lls? WHY IS EVERYONE PASSING?! PASSING! PASSING! PASSING!"

@LFCTransferRoom With Gakpo and Salah out wide it's no wonder, and any forward would struggle. We really must get rid of both of them if we are to improve.

@Xenceee He’s a poor game but was instrumental in us becoming prem League champs. One bad games doesn’t make you a bad player. He’ll come good again & people forget how young he is. He will play is part in success soon enough.

@zanetalkssports Probably a slight exaggeration 😂 but we were awful. A 0-0 was all either side really deserved and we've put in far too many poor performances under Slot for him to continue next season imo

@NotoriousLFC Although I want Slot gone, I'm not sure Alonso is the right choice as, like Amorim, he's wedded to a back 3, that doesn't seem to work in the PL.

Why wait until the end of the season when Stevie Wonder can see we are missing top 5 now? Get Alonso in, give him time this season and then he will know what they need in the Summer.

FWIW I don’t think Slot will be sacked any time soon. I think there will be a feeling of collective responsibility for the results this season and therefore a collective responsibility to sort it out. Would imagine they are already talking about the summer and what is needed

@Liverpool_React @WeAreLiv3rpool There's a balancing act because for me a key reason why it took us 30 years to win a league title is because we have been overly loyal. Yeah loyalty to a point is a good thing, but if it goes too far then it becomes a hindrance.

@WeAreLiv3rpool I don’t want us turning into Man Utd sacking a manager every year or every other year if they don’t finish 1/2……won the league and now sit 4th and people want him sacked. We were 12th at this point in a season under Klopp and no one was crying Klopp out.

@liverbirdjen The fact he hasn't been offered a contract extension at this point speaks volumes. I doubt those at the top will allow a manager/coach to go into his final season. Imo unless we win, or go very far (at least) in the CL, he's likely being replaced in the summer.
