coaching is the easy part, man management is not easy, that is what makes klopp so brilliant. Even Tom Werner said jurgen could lead a fortune 500 company easy…watching the players today, you can clearly see they are not on the same page. Some are mentally checking out of games especially when we concede.

If there is ever a conflict over a player and a manager of the club, then the manager tends to be the one who represents the club best, sorry but there is clearly a split in the dressing room and mo is at the heart of it.
Yes we are going through a bad spell, but after what mo has said ,im all for slot getting rid of him and the negativity within the squad..this is a manager less than six months ago we were lauding as the next paisley, klopp was the modern shankly.
Cliche no club is bigger than the club, but here we are …bye mo appreciate the memories and service but youve crossed the line about airing things out in public as though you are playing for Manchester united…this is not the liverpool way, and doms comments about the changing room makes sense.

Things were going ok untill another brain fart from our resident donkey giving away another pen, then the game changed and we lost control, even with 8 minutes to go of added time we were time wasting and trying to keep posession in the corner aftet taking one. Its all so amateur and not liverpool. He needs replacing asap

Its clear that the management at the club is not where it should be atm. We need directors to come before the press to explain what is going on.

Any other player would say something along the lines that he hasn’t been in good form, but he knows he has lots to offer the team, and he’ll fight to make sure he gets his shirt back.
His ego is off the fucking scale.

Maybe Arne new this was coming out and picked the team accordingly, Mo has made a big error, I feel this will alienate fans, I know it has me and looking at a few of the comments, other as well.
Been a true legend, don’t tarnish it.

Dom: what happens in the locker room stays there
Mo: allow me introduce myself…
Great players very rarely accept their marginalization well and it often ends either acrimoniously (as it did with Hughes and Thompson) or quickly before it gets the chance to become negative (as Klopp did with Hendo). The only way this was not going to happen with Mo was if Slot just kept picking him over and over. Only thing we can do now is rip the band aid off making Brighton his last game for us.
It is notable that before we made our first changes Mo was not even sent to warm up

It’s always been the ‘Liverpool Way’ for the manager to be supported above all else, even if a situation arose where the club’s best player was at odds with him.
This is unprecedented though, under normal circumstances the manager would get 100% support from the fans and owners especially given Salah’s poor form for some time. The reality is both are dead in the water as things stand.
The only hope for Salah is Slot gets sacked, which he should. Whether Salah still has anything to offer at this point remains to be seen.

honestly… just sell in January, the tantrum gets you 10 million less than the intended fee in the summer, but cut your losses and everyone moves on. would do the dressing room a world of good. we need a reset.

Yep, hardest part of the game, that’s why great coaches don’t always become great managers and several have a 2nd in commands that facilitate looking after the players.

Hendo, was a legend for his captaincy but for a lot he spoiled it.

Hendo probably in the argument for top 50 Liverpool players of all time. Mo’s in top 5

Yeah, things have come to a head quickly. I think it will force FSG’s hand, they simply can’t afford to sit back and do nothing. I can’t remember the last time things were so toxic.

Agreed, that’s why I mentioned captaincy, he was part and parcel for setting standards
Has it ever happened where one of our players has come out as openly against the manager?
The atmosphere in the LFC dressing room is beginning to feel toxic, with growing concerns that some players are not truly representing the shirt. In that context, selling Salah may ultimately be the best decision because the last thing the club needs is entrenched factions forming ‘for Salah’ and ‘against Salah.’ Yet this feels like only the tip of the iceberg. There appears to be far more going on behind the scenes than we, as fans, are privy to and none of it bodes well without a hard reset to restore unity, clarity, and purpose.”
