Ed001 slot has got to go if I added up right it is only 19 wins from our last 38 in all comps since the fa cup game against Plymouth. The games at the start of this season have got to go down as some of the most unconvincing wins ever.
Even in the first half of last season some of the wins where such a hard watch I have watched some losses under Klopp and enjoyed the games more.
{Ed001's Note - and we were not playing well before then.}

The signs were there from the last third of last season but no one wanted to address it as we were top of the table. What I find hard to understand was at the beginning of last season slot seemed to make substitutions that actually helped. Now he just looks confused or too stubborn to make the changes needed.

Ed, if we miss out on the Champions League next season, would we be in financial trouble? After all the spending in the summer, and potentially more in January, missing out on next year’s Champions League could cause problems.
{Ed001's Note - it would just mean we have less to spend. A huge amount less.}

Even Tim Sherwood wouldn't claim that win ratio, a close call though.

No Ed I don’t think at the start of last season we was playing well am sure there is someone out there that knows the facts but we was losing loads of games a resorted back to Klopp style of play and turned games around but after February Slot stopped doing that and even when losing just carried on with the same negative passive football that might be ok in Holland but it does not work here.
I was hoping he was going to to get better and improve on Klopp where he was not ruthless enough to drive us to where Paisley did. But his tactics are driving what a great squad we have and I have no doubt about how good are players are his tactics now at the front of are team his driving us back.

When you consider we’ll likely need to buy at least one top class centre back and a defensive minded midfielder, having a substantially reduced budget isn’t exactly going to help.

I have genuinely been saying oh football is boring now to my mates. I thought it was the referees who were spoiling games but I feel it might just because Liverpools style of play is so hard to watch as a fan of football.
So the style of play is enough to make you turn the match off and we are losing week in week out. He has to go just has to he is turning this club rotten.

if we have restricted spending power, then maybe that will be a good thing. it will force us back to how we normally operate in the market, which hadn't really failed us for a decade lol.
{Ed025's Note - thats a good point Faith..

Fair point Faith. Appreciate you see it.
Buying all superstars (Mbappe, Yamal, etc) and thinking we will be number 1 will never work.
Our fans are still wetting over Isak signing and thinking we have a right to be 1 with Isak and Wirtz.
