Reluctant Striker Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Kind of sensed that coming. Leicester can be good when they want to be. And they needed to be. Villa? Just Man City & Arsenal next. And then Burnley.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren’t great at the tail end of last season and Mane papered over the cracks. And Ancelotti said we were the easiest side to prepare for in the CL. And that’s not great for finalists Now we make just about every opponent look world class except for what I assume are probably the shittiest squads in the UK. Ancelotti talks shit constantly. Don’t believe him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMike Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 1 hour ago, Rick said: Although Klopp definitely has things to answer for, especially this season, I would gladly watch all of the squad leave Liverpool before him. The only doubt I have is whether he has the energy to build a new team. I know he only signed a new contract recently, but the man looks exhausted. I bet you he is begging for new ownership who are willing to help him in the market. His hands have been tied. We should have created a dynasty when we had our best side around the time of the premier league win, but since then we have watched the squad grow old and tired. I’m absolute fed up to the back teeth with these owners, and the army of numpties that think we don’t have money to spend. FSG get credit for saving the club, hiring Klopp & Michael Edwards. Everything else they have done is nothing different to any other cheap cunt money grabbing owner has done. Seriously fuck them and their families and their pets. I keep seeing you and others say about 'creating a dynasty '. That was never happening with the team Liverpool were up against. They could have taken a few more risks in the transfer market but a dynasty is just ridiculous talk tbh. FSG didn't save the club either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Constantly improving the squad when winning is key. We weren’t far behind City a couple of times, and we could have won those. We should have more than one league title and one champions league to show all this time. You know what I mean by “saved” we were close to administration after years of dogshit ownership under those two pricks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devil Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I nearly added Wolves to my accumulator this morning but seen it as too much of a risk. I'm absolutely astonished at the drop off at Liverpool this season and as an outsider looking in the team/squad isn't as bad as these results. You've got to start questioning the tactics over the players now, Klopp needs to change something and fast otherwise its midtable. I don't believe for a second Klopp will lose his job after this season but if it continued into September/October I do believe something would happen in terms of his job.

Machado Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 What's the lowest Man United finished under SAF? You really have to admire his consistency, though to be fair the league is more competitive than ever. You don't get away with being a bit shit anymore. There's class players everywhere.

Subscriber Dan+ Posted February 5, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted February 5, 2023 Saw our team and lashed money on us to win the game. He got it spot on for me - with a genuinely attacking lineup. There were lairy moments, and it was nowhere near the finished article, we were probably lucky to only let in 2, but we were substantially improved going forward. Best attacking display of the season. Tete was very good, Kristiansen as well arguably my MOTM. Iheanacho plays and gets a goal and two assists in the first half. He's our best striker now, there's no doubt about it. Sort of game where you look and think for any flaws we're going to be fine because we've got enough quality in our side to do what we've done today.

Reluctant Striker Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 Reviewed the carnage. Despite the good run Villa had been on, they've still been leaking chances. That Martinez-Kamara mix up was a repeat of the Olsen-Dendonker vs Stevenage debacle. I think Unai has been quoted now as saying they need to look at what's going on there. I'm all for possession based build up play, but if there's a man on, there's a man on. It shouldn't be difficult to get right. And there are problems when a striker gets a free onside header from open play. A few teams Villa had beaten recently could have done what Leicester did, but just had no goal threat or bad finishing. I'm not expecting big things from the City & Arsenal games. In fact it may be a while before the next win. Perhaps the next 3 points will be when enough have caught up to motivate them all again. The low key transfer window does rather send a message of looking to next season already. Which is still slightly dangerous. In terms attracting better players, not just is it 35? Higher or lower? The only real positives to take is Watkins seemingly rising to being main striker. And Buendia starting to seem like a consistent attacking threat. I wonder if he just understands the teamtalks now? It probably is more the defence that is in most urgent need of upgrades. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reluctant Striker Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 If Liverpool were not being managed by the man who delivered their 1st Premier League era title he'd surely be out of a job by now? Ok, Mane left. A few players are all 1 year older. But it's equally in its own way as crazy as Leicester & West Ham going from being in & around the Euro spots to where they've spent most of the season. The minimum expected top 4 already seems too much. If there's no turn around soon, the other Euro spots may be taken by others. But still a good few years of increasingly even worse results before relegation talk though I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted February 5, 2023 Subscriber Share Posted February 5, 2023 Martinez was terrible. Villa had quite a few chances to be honest, we were nowhere near the finished article and could've easily let in more than we did, but I do think what we demonstrated there was we do have the firepower and I think that will get us out of trouble. I think we could go to a say Palace, Brentford etc... and win by pure virtue of the quality of our attackers. I don't think the others down there can say that. Iheanacho should've been starting a long time ago but it's better late than never, and we'd have lost him if we weren't careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted February 6, 2023 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Watching the highlights it feels like a point lost now. We had far more chances than I recognised. Again the in game substitutes were poor. Taking off Schlupp for Mateta got the commentators excited but the reality was we lost our most direct ball carrier and replaced him with a 6ft3 striker who jumps 5ft3 and we lost momentum as a result.
