Post match: Brighton v Liverpool (EPL 21/3/26 12.30)

I didn’t see the still but that’s probably on. You can’t fixate on the body line, lad looks like he’s got a fucking 22 boot on and it’s his foot from the big toe playing him on. Can’t really have any qualms about that one, I’m afraid.

It’s now Sunday here and I was hoping to wake up to the news that Slot had been sacked. Sadly not. Instead I see that Everton are now just three points behind us.

Sunday, Bloody Sunday.

Gotta be behind the ball mate, not the player.

Sacking won’t be until Monday (or Tuesday according to Indykaila).

Otherwise not until the end of the season. I really think that would be a mistake though.

That is a shit angle it was very very close and it is the automated that gives it so no arguments

Truly? Is that the ruling when in behind like that. Was today years old when I learned that.

I think it’s pretty dire that a team with that kind of record is still 5th :unamused_face:

With the players that we have it is crazy to even imagine our current level of play in the PL. And we’re the reigning champions to boot. That our players are outrun and appear to be tired before our opponents is on Slot and his coaching/conditioning. The poor/ineffective subs again is down to Slot. Obviously the buck stops with him in the team’s tactics and selection. And it doesn’t look like he can coach a high level of performance from his players consistently this season for some reason.
Conclusion - remove him ASAP and get an interim manager in (Gerrard?) until end of this season.

Yea that’s it. Doesn’t happen often. Ideally you have a defender. They used the ‘goal side’ part of the ball for the measurement.

There’s a few decent games today, including a cup final. I can’t be bothered watching any of them after yesterday.

Has anyone asked Slot about these two points? The lack of fitness, by now, seems undeniable. And the subs are a glaring deficiency

Yeah. Sucking all the joy out of football.

Embarrassing defending…

Terrible performance, no organisation in any part of the team. 4 midfielders and Brighton just ran through like there was no one there, no tactics and his usual stupidity subbing off 3 of the back 4. Absolute clueless coaching.

Yeah, he did the same against Spurs and then we conceded a goal.

And we had 1 RB and 1 CB/RB on the bench…

have to keep being optimistic, even though, the lads perform poorly way too often this season. Double figures for defeats and letting a little distance between third and fourth positions to expand.is depressing to think about.
