Hi all,
The club are not impressed with Szoboszlai's antics towards away fans after yesterday's match. Word has been taken up with the player and the squad have now been fully advised about not rocking the boat further with the travelling fans. Explains Virgil's comments about giving up.
Troubling times at the club at the minute. I do not envy the PR team.

How about they avoid rocking the boat further by simply sacking Slot?

I think it was an absolute disgrace, Vic. What was he playing at?
He's been going at the fans for a few weeks now, wasn't so long ago he was almost embarrassed to celebrate the league title in front of the Kop because he probably felt like he didn't contribute much.
Now he's acting like Billy big balls coz he's the best player in a terrible terrible team. Souness would've slapped him, I'm sick to death of these lot.

Vic, ...
What do the club do when the crowd starts becoming vocal... cheering for another name... Slot for Holland... or walking out early... or even a few cards which the TV will definately pan onto...?
It's all very head in sand, and let's deal with that later...
Only one person will get asked questions, and that is Slot... as much as I don't want him coaching us... bit of a rancid situation to put him in every week... I know the football he gets us to play is rancid... but all the same.

A player who has given his all this season is allowed to voice frustration with fans.
Fans are fed up (and as one I certainly am), and trying in some way to let the powers that be know and understand this. We absolutely need a change and we have to let them know this for the sake of the club.
But at the same time Szobo probably doesn't like fans leaving/singing another manager's name, thinking it goes against supporting the team.
Which it is.
Both sides have valid points and opinions.
So I would lay off him for this personally. I love his passion. I prefer him as he is and not some sheep. Team player.

It wouldn't be odd for Alonso to want his kid to finish a school year without disruption. The next move will be for 3 + years, and there is no rush.
Edwards will get to work with his first choice, and hopefully build a new legacy akin to Klopps.

"But at the same time Szobo probably doesn't like fans leaving/singing another manager's name, thinking it goes against supporting the team."
Sorry Davey, but I simply don't agree with that.
Fans give their time, money and emotion to support their clubs. Apart from anybody who volunteers at the club, everybody else involved from playing staff to CEO has either a contractual obligation or financial interest in the club. Fans don't take a wage or a financial benefit, they give.
If a fan feels like they've seen enough at 4-0 and wants to head home, so be it.
Don't get mardy with the fans. Try giving some to your teammates who aren't tracking a runner or doing their job properly.
As for the chants - that's football. Put your big boy pants on and get over it.
Frankly, he should have been grateful there was a single fan left to apologise to after that surrender of a second half performance. He's shown excellence this year, but he's also shown some breathtaking arrogance.

Szob, imo does believe the hype around fans saying he's the best player. I'm not arsed if he doesn't sign a new contract, imo he's part of the problem, big time. Charlie, Tara lad, you're not that special. Really poor man's Gini.

It's Zidane who's rocking the boat.

In my opinion, yesterday anyone part of that team or coaching staff yesterday that was either surprised or angered by the travelling fans leaving early are living in cloud cuckoo land.

This arrogance towards the fans is the worst thing about this club. Sadly, a lot of it comes from other fans still stuck in the days of paying £10 a ticket, where the average PL player wasn't earning 200 times more than the average fan, and where supporting a team actually meant that.
When fans are paying £80 a ticket, they can cheer or moan when they damn well please, and the players should show gratitude towards them regardless.

Even the commentator said, "Szoboslai looks like he has given up and isn't bothering to track back," after the third goal went in. If Dom had already mentally left the stadium, he can't blame the fans.
Scored some worldie free kicks but gives up when the going gets tough. Sounds like prime Real Madrid material.
