Liverpool banter 5

Lots of digs at Slot, but one thing you have to hand to him, to play the most boring football we've seen in 30 years whilst simultaneously having our worst defence in 30 years is some effort.
Generally being boring goes hand-in-hand with clean sheets and being hard to beat (Rafa). Somehow we've managed to avoid that. Seriously impressive stuff. Unprecedented.
04 May 2026 11:24:14
Was randomly thinking this the other day ...
Houllier and Rafa played slow football .. It wasn't great to watch.. but at least we could see ... shape .. effort .. actual tactics...
Whatever we are witnessing is certainly a first in my 30 years supporting ...
We had not half the talent we have now ... well apart from Rafa had a good team and we choked .. Mascherano Alonso Gerrard Reina Finnan Hyypia Carra Riise Torres ... prob just the wings we were below par on .. I waffle... Yes, I agree with you, fella.
Agree4
04 May 2026 11:27:00
If it was boring, but we were stingy defensively, it would be fine. I could live with that, but this is Bodgers country, lots of pointless passing, no penetration (the only penetration Bodgers had was extra marital), and loads of sloppy goals conceded.
Agree6
04 May 2026 12:12:36
To be fair to Rafa, we did actually play quite fast on the counter. Particularly when we had Gerrard and Torres. At least he had a coherent plan for how we would try to score a goal, even if it was frustrating at times.
Agree2
04 May 2026 13:09:05
"Generally being boring goes hand-in-hand with clean sheets and being hard to beat (Rafa)."
And if you add Houllier to that, both managers actually won multiple trophies playing such boring, wall-scraping football. Slot can't even do that.
Agree1
04 May 2026 10:46:05
Who should be our signings this summer to strengthen the team and get us back challenging again?
04 May 2026 11:07:32
Diomande, one of Bowen/Barcola, a dm, and a rb.
Agree1
04 May 2026 11:16:04
An absolute unit of a defensive midfielder to play alongside Szoboszlai and two fast tricky wingers as a minimum.
Agree5
04 May 2026 11:16:12
Not sure who to get, but I know where we need strengthening, and that definitely is the midfield, esp 2 powerhouse midfielders, and obviously a replacement for the legend Salah.
Agree0
04 May 2026 11:18:21
A new manager first. Then he decides.
Agree8
04 May 2026 11:18:42
A new manager is the best signing we could get.
Agree7
04 May 2026 11:26:00
We could sign prime world 11 in the history of football ...
Would not help with Slot in charge.
Agree6
04 May 2026 11:48:30
Spot on Molby, that's exactly what we need.
Agree1
04 May 2026 13:09:39
Cafu, I would sound like a scratched CD, so thankfully, you said it.
Agree0
04 May 2026 13:37:47
For me, Anderson and Diomande as a minimum, but would cost in region of 200 million. Geertrudia would be a wise buy also due to his versatility.
Agree0
04 May 2026 10:22:12
2 points from 24 against away teams in the top 6 this season. 2!
Come on Slot sympathisers, explain this with your stats?
Wtf are you seeing that no one else is?
04 May 2026 10:37:30
18 defeats, imagine if we hadn't won those first 5 games... Which all 5 could have gone either way!
Agree15
04 May 2026 11:14:55
Those are damning stats, KloppNE and MoT. We're blessed we took the points we got last August and September. I've said this before, we're in a whole load of trouble. FSG need to seriously step up to the plate in the next month to try and repair the club.
There's massive toxicity, derision and conflict within it currently and it cannot be allowed to continue. It's just not good enough.
Agree4
04 May 2026 11:19:57
If we were playing half decent football, I could excuse Slot with the injuries we have had. But, since we don't train, injuries are also on him, so there is no saving grace. I just hope we can win 1 game out of 3 left, and then get rid of Slot.
Agree2
04 May 2026 13:11:51
Guys, hold on. Wait a minute. You're not supposed to post these facts (not just stats) on here. Some feathers are about to get severely ruffled if you all keep posting these, you know, facts.
Agree0
04 May 2026 10:03:05
I'm guessing most posters on this site have seen Salahs interview regarding the culture at the club. I'm going to be honest If I was concerned before, I'm even more concerned now. To question the mentality of the club, the professionalism of the new players, it's really scary. Surely the higher ups at the club are listening and can see what we see?
Ed1, Cara, the fields, Robbo, surely someone senior at the club can see how much has changed so quickly? I'm not saying sacking the manager at the club is the answer, I'm looking at Hughes et al and thinking that they along side slot should be accountable for this mess we are in?
{Ed001's Note - I told you all this at the time he came out and gave that interview complaining about being thrown under the bus. I said he was being forced out, he tried to tell us all then but everyone was just complaining about a player coming out and having a dig at the club. He warned us all. They chose Slot over him back then, even though it was already clear then standards had dropped. They have chosen to push him and Robbo out the door for Slot. I don't think Hughes and Edwards know their arse from their elbow to be honest.}
04 May 2026 10:45:30
It swings ever more to malice rather than incompetence.
Agree4
04 May 2026 10:46:36
A hundred percent agreed. Hughes is one of those nodding dogs.
Agree4
04 May 2026 10:48:35
Slot was apparently chosen (albeit 2nd choice after Xabi) because he was 'close' to Jurgen in terms of style and intensity.
Surely even Beavis and Butthead can see how far away we are from that now.
Agree8
04 May 2026 10:42:57
I'm totally dismayed at FSG's stance in all of this though Ed - those above Edwards & Hughes I mean.
I'm not going down the route like some on here with FSG out but surely they can see the untold damage this is doing to the club in every aspect?
Agree2
{Ed001's Note - they seem to be just content to get UCL qualification, for now.}
04 May 2026 10:49:19
1000%, Ed.
I can boastfully say I was among those who agreed with Salah then, and I do now.
Salah has the humility to accompany the ego that has driven him to greatness, and if a player as dedicated as him comes out and says the club stinks, it is overwhelmingly likely that he is telling the truth.
Agree6
04 May 2026 10:57:17
I agree completely Ed, at the time I believe certain others should of spoken out too ie. Virg and robbo. These are season pros who have all been trained and managed by much better managers and coaches than slot and his team and becoming apparent now the lacklustre training and allowing them far too much time off.
The 3 of them together have destroyed this club already, and if they let him stay for another season we'll be a mid table team very soon. Not excusing players like wirtz, because he hasn't been great. But players like konate and macca have been a disgrace this season and should be shown the door instantly.
Agree0
04 May 2026 11:23:14
People were siding with Slot over Salah's "outburst". We had our most potent attacker for nearly a decade, who came off one of his better seasons, and Slot, in all his wisdom, changed our style of play to this subdued rubbish, thus making Salah's game redundant.
Yea, his confidence went, n he hasn't been as good, but his stats are still better than ppl. like Saka, who ppl. think is the second coming. Imagine if he just left Salah to play his game n tweaked other positions instead of this bored to tears football that doesn't suit anyone.
Agree6
04 May 2026 12:07:38
Those were some strange times, hey, Stromsgodset...
The amount of people who came on this forum and wrote off Salah as a result of his fallout was amazing.
Agree2
04 May 2026 13:11:47
I wrote off Salah after his fallout and he hasn't changed my mind since. He is leaving at the right time.
Agree2
04 May 2026 13:21:58
"I told you all this at the time he came out and gave that interview complaining about being thrown under the bus. I said he was being forced out, he tried to tell us all then but everyone was just complaining about a player coming out and having a dig at the club."
Several of us said the exact same thing above after Salah's outburst that he was being scapegoated for our plight this season. But, they, hey, we were told that we were backing a player over the club with all the slander/insults Salah was getting and the whole "No man is bigger than the club" gimmicks. I knew Salah was wringing the alarm by using himself as an example.
I wasn't fooled one bit. The moment he said he was being forced out and not a soul at the club denied it, I knew what game this was. Seen it too many times. And with the absolute clown Carragher coming out and slandering Salah the way he did, anyone who thought all these things/actions by the club (hit pieces in the media etc.) were not linked, was simply not paying attention.
This was all a co-ordinated effort to get Salah out the club and as we have now found out, any player who felt the same way could kick rocks as well. Salah was right all along, end of and history will forever vindicate him. Sad but true.
Agree1
04 May 2026 15:17:23
JLC, madness to write off a potent weapon because Slot was seen as a great manager, he never bought anyone players n tweaked Klopp's system. Soon as we let him do his thing, we were fighting for 5th.
Darwin, Salah can't go on forever, we all know that, but to try n change his game when it's proven to be 100 effective, if played right he would have hit the similar numbers to previous seasons.
Agree1
04 May 2026 07:49:06
Slot has a very interesting take on how you should play football. In my opinion, football is an easy game, play the ball forwards to runners. It really is that simple. I don't watch the games anymore as it’s such a horrible experience and a bore fest.
Such a shame, especially with that squad. Players do not go from winners to losers like this team has. Something is very wrong with the mentality at the moment.
{Ed078's Note - mate, you sound as old as me. I played pro for just 1 season and the game did seem much simpler. But, it's a science today. Conditioning coaches, dieticians, statisticians, analysists, set piece coaches, throw in coaches for crying out loud. There's no going back.
04 May 2026 07:59:02
Football is a simple game made complicated by idiots.
Agree15
{Ed078's Note - one of Bill's great sayings.
04 May 2026 08:33:32
What's the science called when it promotes more holidays than training days?
Agree7
{Ed025's Note - shirkology..
04 May 2026 08:38:30
I'd say it was the coaches and the over complicated tactical set ups that are ruining everything.
I'm all for the dietitians, conditioning coaches etc. Players should be as fit as possible in the prem.
But, have you ever met footballers? 90% of them are as thick as mince and I can only imagine the blank faces when the likes of Slot are trying to teach them tactics.
No wonder we look clueless half the time.
Just do the basics right, get the ball into the box as quickly as possible, run quick, pass quick, press quick. Give the players some fire and belief.
Plus any flair seems to have disappeared from the game as well. The players must be so bored playing such dull football.
Agree7
04 May 2026 08:40:16
JLC, I think that's called Ibizology.
Agree4
04 May 2026 09:11:35
I think it all boils down to simple things.
The fitness levels have dropped so significantly that the high press and the energy used in the 'Heavy Metal Football' of the Klopp era are no longer attainable.
All through this season I've noticed that players look tired after 70 minutes of unacceptably pedestrian football, and it's all down to fitness and conditioning.
This would likely be fine in the Dutch Eredivisie, but not in the English Premier League, where so-called inferior teams seem able to run us into the ground, especially towards the end of the match.
I'm in the 'Sack Slot' group as he looks to be on a completely different wavelength to the fans, the dressing room and the hard realities of being successful in a highly competitive league.
I can't envisage that any board worth their salt could stomach another season of the shambolic ineptitude being served up by this coach, who is clearly completely out of his depth.
Sitting on the fence, I am not!
Agree10
04 May 2026 10:25:00
How are we still having the same conversations 7 months on?
Who's running this club? 🤡
Agree6
04 May 2026 10:28:36
Good point, Klopp's philosophy was simple, which is why it worked so well. Work hard, press high and attack with intent - win the ball up high and hit them hard.
Football is a simple game, win your battles and give your creative/goal scorers the ball - I do think, as well as being unfit and playing too slowly, we have suffered from having no pace outwide/up tip.
I think, sort this and that will solve a lot of our problems (of course we need a dm and rb too).
Agree1
04 May 2026 10:31:20
Whole media has switched sides. I am guessing Slot's days are numbered now.

04 May 2026 08:34:00
One of the best quotes ever, Ed78. As you say, football is not just a science right now. It has now become a philosophy. Now, I may not have played pro like you did but I played at a decent level and everyone just knew what to do, where to be depending on whether you had possession, where you had it etc. Oh, and we all knew how to take a throw-in. Now, we are watching robotics, algebra and Calculus, all in the name of football. mad, right?
As for Slot's idea o n how to play football, this is not complicated to discern. All you have to do is watch us play thru out this season and you will know Slot's "take" about how to play football or in this case, Slotball.
Agree0
04 May 2026 09:40:10
Ed - i'm in my 50s. I played to county level and had a decent run in some very talented sides. What I would say is with all the access to modern science the condition of the players should be way better. We used to survive on cross country, wine gums and oranges at half time. We didn't break down like these modern players do and we would play rugby and football in the same week. What science hasn't done is change how football is played, pressing has always been a thing it is nothing new, neither is high line defending, nor is explosive wingers, nor overlapping or inverted full backs.
I would have played for Liverpool for free, shame I was never good enough to make it as a pro. The game itself is still very simple, forward passing and constant movement. Last time I watched us I didn't see any of that, slow sideways and backward passing to static players. I did watch the highlights of the PSG v Bayern game, just goes to show that football does not have to be boring and can be entertaining. It's an entertainment business, take that away and the joy is sucked out of it. Hence why I don't watch anymore, it's just a bore fest and the Premier League this season has been terrible.
Agree0
{Ed078's Note - agreed. I've been shocked at our physical fitness levels this season, particularly early on, when you'd think they'd be primed.

04 May 2026 07:23:18
Hmm if we change a manager there is a way Salah can stay next year?
I don't think we can be where we got to be without him with the new manager. Honestly I wouldn’t mind Salah as the new player manager in this moment.
There has to be a way for Salah to continue. I don't think he has suddenly lost all his love for the club fans and city.
{Ed078's Note - what time is it where you are? Assuming it's way past opening hours.

{Ed078's Note - nice, just stirring as your post seemed a bit "out there". Salah as player manager, hilarious :)
04 May 2026 08:32:12
Desperate times. Anything to get rid of Slot now and keep Salah.
Agree3
{Ed078's Note - I get it, but Salah 2 years ago, with Bobby and Sadio, not this current Salah, surely?
04 May 2026 08:36:28
Cafu, Salah plays? We are crap. Salah does not play? We are still crap. I think we should just let sleeping dogs lie and let Mo go on a high, with his honour, dignity and legendary status intact.
Agree5
04 May 2026 09:20:37
Simple mathematics?
If you remove 1 Slot, does that equal a happier Salah, because a happier Salah would surely be a much better player.
Well, they'd all be better players if you let them do what they're best at!
Like having a greyhound, letting it laze around all day, eat, and wander up and down your yard.
When they're born to run and are so much happier when you do!
Agree3
04 May 2026 10:15:48
Salah from one year ago was breaking records.
I hate this narrative that his legs have gone and he's finished. They have scapegoated him for the slop that Slot is serving up. We are beyond lucky to be fourth. It's incredible. The standard of the Premier League is so poor. We should have absolutely walked it this season.
I can't really believe we're in this position. Watching the game yesterday, and thinking this is going to be their revenge for the drubbing we gave them. And then getting to the end of the match, losing 3-2, feeling like we got away with one?? How are we here after being champions last season??
Agree3
04 May 2026 09:27:32
The salah disrespect is mind boggling. Yes ed, this salah that smashed the premeir league goal contribution record last season only. How is he done?? Still among top scorers and assists for club in this trash season 12 goals 9 assists. 9 continuous seasons for 35+ goals and assist with 20+ goals every season.
everyone else is judged and given a pass cuz they are trash because of slots tactics but salah oh salah is done he should be doing everything on his own!
Yes i'd have him over any damn one else out there. Cuz give him right people and he will still score 20+ goals next season.
Tell you what you'd have him at united closed eyes even now for one season cuz he walks into any epl team even today.
Agree0
{Ed078's Note - hmm. How is it disrespectful to Salah to say it's hilarious for you to suggest you'd have him as player manager? Has he said this is what he wants? Have I been on another planet and missed it?
Why would you say I'd have him at Utd? I'm not a Utd supporter.
If you think the Salah of today walks into any PL team, then I admire your love for the guy.
04 May 2026 07:02:49
Hi Ed001. You replied to a post yesterday saying that Slot has fallen out with a lot of the senior players. Can you give any more on who and why please?
{Ed001's Note - it is pretty obvious isn't it? Salah being the main one. And why? Because Slot has let standards slip and no one is working hard any more. Players like Salah and Robertson, who have pride in their work, don't enjoy this.}
04 May 2026 07:56:26
Pretty clear, when both decided to leave, that Slot would be likely staying. Time for Anfield to get involved, win, lose or draw, and show their discontent towards Slot. Only way the board will listen.
Agree9
04 May 2026 07:57:34
Salah obviously and I figured Robertson. Just wondered if it's a more widespread thing. I would have thought the basics for anything would be hard work and any coach should set the standards. Thanks Ed001
Agree0
{Ed001's Note - Szobo, Jones and a few others. Don't worry though, Mac Allister and Konate are happy, those two couldn't give a shit about how bad we are. Konate should have been f'ed off last summer, all this sympathy over his dad is all well and good, but his performances are crap and never improved because he doesn't give a toss. He only cares about his stupid idiotic clothing on international break.}
04 May 2026 08:27:22
Konate is a waste of space and Mac Allister likewise. Rarely, a game goes by when Konate doesn't make a basic mistake leading to a goal. There seems to be a lack of effort all round, which may reflect the players' dissatisfaction, and I don't see how that changes without changes above.
Add to that the obvious imbalances in the squad, it looks grim for next season. I hope I'm wrong but it's worrying how far we've dropped off. Eleven league defeats, ffs.
Agree1
04 May 2026 08:42:11
Indeed. The fact that Jones, a guy that bleeds the red of Liverpool (the city and the club) wants to go and Robbo wanted to go to Spurs of all places, is all people need to know.
Salah was forced out, imo, and Ali potentially is next, should the Juve rumours be true. So the club is gonna get rid of all these guys just to keep Slot, really?
I'm with Babbity.
The crowd at Anfield need to get involved. These clowns are gonna destroy all the club. Klopp and our Klopp era players (past and present) have shed blood, sweat and tears to build over the years. Rise up!!
Agree9
04 May 2026 09:17:36
Brummyred and Oli, regarding the crowd getting involved, it's highly unlikely to happen. If CL were impossible, there may have been a slight chance. Two games to go. I can see there being ticket protests, again, the weekend, then the last game will be all about Salah and Robbo.
You are right that supporters revolting would bring about what most of us want, but, like I say, I'm pretty sure it won't happen.
Agree0

Upamecano being favored over Konate for France says it all for me. I like the lad as a person but his progress with LIV is a regress. 💯

04 May 2026 09:49:05
Rome, but then are the fans just accepting mediocrity and happy to get a top 4/5 finish after winning the title and spending so much money?
For me personally im disgusted with our performances and league position. I dont buy the 'no one's entitled to win the league' blurb that gets posted on here all the time. We are reigning champions, we spent vast sum of money in the summer, almost every pundit in the various polls had Liverpool to retain the title including people like Neville and Keane. And so did I, what we've witnessed is a shambolic title defense, worse than Leicester because they didnt have the squad and investment we did.
Accepting 4/5 to me seems like the fan base have reverted back to the Liverpool of the 90's, it's just nice to be relevant and have a good cup run, its not the attitude of winning supporters.
Utd supporters during Fergies reign didnt have this defeatist attitude, neither do City's now and we didnt during the Klopp revolution. But it seems that's been completely eroded and not taking part seems good enough.
I really can understand posters saying they may not bother watching some matches next season as the football is so very bad with zero improvement. Then we get it was worse under Roy or Roger's, they didnt have these players and this huge investment.
* Has any player progressed this season under our Coach?
* Have any players regressed this season under our coach?
Sorry all for the long post but its soul destroying this season to be a Liverpool fan, the collapse is unprecedented.
Agree4
04 May 2026 10:24:20
I agree with all this. Man Utd 3 Liverpool 2 on paper screams Premier League classic. Will anyone in years to come remember this game? Look at the amount of possession we had yesterday. They gave it to us because they knew we wouldn't do anything with it.
I don't want this to come across as whining that we didn't win. I honestly
don't care as long as the game was entertaining and the players leave everything on the pitch. I hate that we're going to get Champions League because it's rewarding insipid football.
Agree1
04 May 2026 10:30:49
Get rid of Mac Allister and Gravenberch, they are awful or they just don't know what they are meant to do.
We need new manager and some hard grafters. These skinny players of ours are getting pushed around.
Stop Play Rio on the right. Losing that ball granted the goal to Man Utd. Play him more on the left, else another player will lose his confidence.
Agree0
04 May 2026 10:46:55
It's so frustrating to watch us now. Yet again, abysmal yesterday. Awful first half. Get back level in the second, and then he reverts the team to holding out again, when it's obvious to a blind man that we are not set up, by him, to be able to do that.
And that is how it's been for so much of this season.
He should have been sacked months ago.
So much wrong at the moment through the club.
Hughes & Edwards are only intent on self-protection.
They are giving Gravy a massive contract. Negotiations with Konate, when he should have been jettisoned last year.
Agree1
04 May 2026 10:58:14
Rio came alive on the left.
If we keep out truly great no1...
Ali.
Kayode - Vvd - Jacquet - Kerkez.
Sadiki or Grav.
Szobo - Wirtz.
Diomande - Isak/Hugo - Rio.
Rotations - M. Mane, Stephenson, Frimpong, Leoni, Tsimi, Jaros, Curtis, Beck, Trey, McConnell.

I read Salah said something in one of his interviews about the importance of the club finding someone else to set the standards, once he's left. It screams of a very worrying trend and backs up exactly what ed1 has said here. The standards have clearly gone
Agree1
04 May 2026 06:57:09
Ed001 what's your thoughts on Frimpong? .
I feel he should if played should go nowhere near right wing unless there is just open space to run into like he got in Germany he offers nothing.
Yesterday even without 3 days off for a change what obviously Slot and the staff have earned this season for such a good job 😜 I don't think he could have got the team selection any worse.
{Ed001's Note - he is not a winger and only a moron would keep playing him as one when we have alternative options. If he plays, he has to play as a wing-back, so that he is running into space on the overlap. Slot is making a bigger arse of it than ever. And his whining yesterday about VAR, after we got absolutely f****** creamed and could have lost by a much bigger margin, was just embarrassing. He should have gone months ago, now he is turning into a hate figure, when he should have been gone with a bit of pride. Too many holidays and not enough work, part time bull****.}

{Ed001's Note - that was me holding back. I have to go round to apologise to my neighbours later, I can only imagine what they must have thought hearing me!}
04 May 2026 07:38:01
Ed001 that's sums him up perfectly for me he should be a manager I remember fondly but I can't stand him now and the longer it goes on the worse I feel about the man.
If he had any morals he would have walked in the summer when he knew he could not commit to the job 100% like Klopp did but it's quite clear he just wanted the pay check without the work.
He has not just destroyed his legacy with us he has ruined a Salah's end of his time with us I feel Ed if everything had stayed the same with training we would have walked this league this season and Salah would have added at least another 20+ league goals this season and next season would have been his farewell season.
Agree7
{Ed001's Note - I agree, Salah should be enjoying his farewell, rather than this.}
04 May 2026 08:05:25
Hiya Ed love your take. Surely the higher ups are seeing this and knowing this isn't right, how can you give the team time off, play like they like and think that's acceptable.
Do the higher ups have the head stuck firmly in the sand or up their a*ses.

Ed001 an with you on Hughes and Edwards but I find it impossible to think anyone in football closely watching what Slot is doing with days off all the time and them guys like all the statistics and when they see we are out run in nearly every game they must know it's him.
That is what am hoping and it's just a case of them waiting for the season to be done before they sort this out.
When Alonso or Iraola take over as both wanted to wait till the summer and they did not want the Gerrard route as if he had turned it around this season with him being who he is it would be hard to replace him and he is not a long term option.

{Ed001's Note - I don't care if they are just waiting for the summer, Hughes and Edwards need to be out that door too for not getting rid of Slot months ago. It is their job to see how things are going and deal with it, not wait until a convenient time for them.}

ED01 I think you speak for a lot of fans and i love the straight talking. I've supported the club for 57 years, and it upsets me to see what's going on after we got back to where we should be.
The heart seems to be torn out of the team. I only hope The three Stooges are gone in the summer while there is still enough left to salvage and go again.

Slot has single handedly ripped all the hard work Klopp spent almost a decade in unifying the club.
If he's not gone in the summer we are heading back to mediocrity.

Apparently fans of Man United, Man City, Everton and Arsenal have joined forces to sign a petition for Liverpool to keep Slot at the end of the season, and also offer him a new 10 year contract.

Ed, you were that loud and was still holding back? I propose you go into an empty warehouse and really let it out because if you do that with the neighbours around, the cops may be called, lol.
Just kidding. The perf. yesterday was just laughable and trust me, I don't want United to even win a set piece. We were (for the upteenth time) atrocious. You don't even need to watch the whole game (in abject agony). All you have to do is watch Shearer's breakdown of LFC our of possession in transition. We are so at sea without a paddle with the amount of gaps United players were running into.
For me and there is way too much evidence of this: I think we are one of if not, the worst coached team in the PL. Oh, what am I saying? We aren't even being coached at all so forget what I just said.

It wasn't a single handed job by Slot. Hughes and Edwards have a lot to answer for as well. Them enabling and backing Slot even now is ripping the soul from the squad and we are seeing it now with the exodus of players who want out.

Interesting your saying all this Ed.
After yesterday, i found myself full of hatred.
I think I actually hate Slot now.
The job he has, to be half assing it, is an absolute disgrace! There are people who would kill for this position.
Spewing absolute sh**e in press conferences.
The delusion is staggering.
The other two upstairs who have not made any decision and accepted this muck for 6 months are just as bad.
I just pray, that slot wants to go home and leaves, or that FSG have some common sense and step in if the other 2 don't.

Ed, the match review is going to be tough for you I would assume. You might need to apologise to your neighbours twice in one week for all the swearing they might hear.

{Ed001's Note - yeah I am not looking forward to rewatching our match.}

We're already there. Ed I have the same concern re Frimpong but I think we can't judge him until a new manager comes in. He's got pace to burn but that is nit being utilised. Same with Kerkez

Oh, Drac, those two bozos are on the clock as well, mate. I'm sacking all of them and cleaning house completely, had I been in a position to rule on this.
