I didn’t say he had nothing to do with transfers. I said he isn’t solely responsible for transfers. This isn’t Footy Manager on the PC. The idea that FSG gave Slot £450 and said ‘do what you want with that mate’ while Hughes and Edwards twiddled with their thumbs is risible.
We’re still wedding to idea of autocratic managers. I don’t think there are many clubs who work like that, never mind Liverpool.
Quite sure, unless he had his hand forced by Hughes and Edwards? But I’m quite sure that all the summer moves were a collective effort from the three of them.
We did see the ‘game plan’ degenerate. Trent and Salah heroics got us over the line comfortably. With a little help from Arsenal not being up to the task.
This is bang on the money regarding transfers. A lot of things have conspired to put us where we are and it’s not all on Arne, it’s also circumstances.
He has questions to answer for sure, but he is not the sole reason
It’s like wack a mole with some of the excuses for Arne. So what if he didn’t pick all of these signings solely. He’s still responsible for making it work. It’s not like they signed a bunch of bums. They were shopping at the top of the market!
Our form reads 6-0-6 , GD of -2 with 20 goals conceded. The fact is we could have turned some of those losses into draws and be close to top four still , if it wasn’t for the kamikaze tactics of throwing the kitchen sink at games when we fall behind. It’s a damning indictment imo.
