@petepizza7 It's becoming a bad habit of letting people get to the final year of their contracts 🫠

One of the things that frustrates me about the Slot situation is that he was so clued in tactically for his first few months, his subs came at the right times and were effective, we played attractive football and he tore other managers' tactics down in his post-match interviews.
English
@Slotoholic Type of signing similar to shaqiri, experienced player that adds quality and depth.
If the price is right
English
If West Ham go down, they will sell Bowen for sure, his contract is high for Championship, and he would be a perfect opportunity to have an experienced all round attacker, who knows the league very well.
He can play as a number 9, he can be on the wings, I am all in.
English
@jmatipfanclub Put a proper defensive structure in front of him and he can easily replicate what Thiago Silva did and play at a top level till 40.
The defence has had zero protection this season
English
I know he’s declining, but I think we’ve reached the stage where people underrate Virgil van Dijk now. He’s nowhere near as washed as people think
English
@DFakExGoalanke It’s funny because at times we’ve been at the top of goals scored from set pieces yet I agree we don’t coach them well.
I feel like it’s always been an odds thing that we get enough set pieces so a couple are bound to go in.
English
And yet I'd say attacking set pieces is the biggest regret of his career. We never coached them well and he never attacked them enough. Could've been 150

Van Dijk with his 75th career goal yesterday btw. He’s already in the upper echelons of goalscoring CBs.He's now only behind the top 7 (Koeman, Passarela, Ramos, Hierro, Beckenbauer,Blanc, SteveBruce) who all took pens, freekicks,& played fullback,midfield (sweeper/stopper roles)
English
People are in for a rude awakening when they realise that we're going to head into next season needing to find an extra 40-50 league goals next season.
No Ekitike, no Salah.
You better hope Isak hits 25, Wirtz settles and the wingers contribute properly.

Slot made minor tweaks to well drilled team and system, it was the same system that suited Mo. It all fell apart when Mo's form dipped last season and Slot hasnt been able to fix it with his own ideas. The dots are clear to see and easy to connect

With what Arsenal are in the process of potentially doing, can we knock this ‘ well he won it with Klopp’s team’ thing on the head? They got over the line. Was no real jeopardy after about mid January. It still needed doing and we got it done.
English
@Ironkai123 You're not wrong, the Villa deal was definitely a fumble and probably has tanked his value.
But hypothetically, do you not think a manager change to an Alonso or Enrique would bring out the best in Elliott?
English
@SweeperSaajan Slot poorly handled Elliott last season for sure. If he wasn't gonna utilize him, we should have sold/loaned him.
English
Sepp: Wanted to leave
Clark: 10m was a lot + Lijnders wanted him
Trent: Wanted to leave
Quansah: We have a buyback that we will probably use
Kelleher: Wanted to leave
Elliott: Not good enough sadly
Doak: Not good enough sadly
Morton: Should’ve kept & PLAYED him
Jones: KEEP PLS
Anfield Fix@AnfieIdFix
Sepp Clark Trent Quansah Kelleher Elliott Doak Morton Jones I get some were mutual and in Trent's case we didn't want him to leave but we've absolutely gutted our academy core
English
@_callmelana_lfc Maybe calling him not elite is harsh, maybe some of it is that his pens don't always fill me with confidence.
Kane and Salah have both apparently missed 13 penalties, Salah got there in 56 while it took Kane 105. Would you class them the same?
English
@SweeperSaajan The “pen merchant” hasn’t been an elite penalty taker?
English
Is there a way to have Arne leave and Salah stay??
Guys… we’d be raving about signing this type of player
English
@TaintlessRed Don't disagree at all, difficult season for the players, throw in a contract renewal, no stable fullback to build a partnership and his dad passing away. You can see why performances dropped.
Having a capable CB to rotate with would've helped get him out of the spotlight.
English
I personally want Konate to stay. I know he's not had a great season (but twenty players haven't either) and we know the level he can perform at. Plus he's 26, replacing someone of his age profile and experience is very expensive and difficult. Fixing midfield will help CBs a lot

@PeteKopite I've asked myself this every match since November.
The signs were there since Newcastle in the League Cup final, same problems for a year.
English
@Toffee_Stand @ThatsFootballTV Unless it's a fitness thing then it's a strange one to me as he's a handful. One of the few players I've actually seen give Van Dijk troubles physically and aerially
English
@SweeperSaajan @ThatsFootballTV Beto didn't come off injured. Moyes was subbing him off anyway
English
🗣️ "I can't speak! They just don't deserve it!"
English
@LeletiLente @BassamLFC You're right, our goals mostly come from opposition mistakes or moments of magic
English
@HendrickD82 All these players perform on international duty but come back and stink. It's not the players, that's the problem
English
He was poor.
So were many others that won't be mentioned.
Laurie@LFCLaurie
Wirtz has been shocking yet again, but if you criticise him as a £100m+ signing, you're apparently "begging for interactions".
