I think the City goal they showed from last season on MOTD just about sums it up.

Virtually identical but Citys was allowed .

The only thing that suprized me It was the same ref in both examples!
You think he would have learned a lesson😂
 
Liverpool leave contract renewals to the last minute, but eventually get aging players Salah and VVD to renew, giving them £400k and £350k a week.

On top of this, they are not far off spending half a billion on new players.

Early November, they've lost more games in the league that the entire of last season.

There is a possibility that Liverpool can no longer be considered a level above all other clubs when it comes to sensible investment. In fact, there is an argument Liverpool might have just had the most irresponsible set of investments ever.

But, it isn't the clubs fault. It is all TAA's fault :ROFLMAO:

What a ridiculous post!!!!
We all know it’s the fault of Marc Guehi/Oliver Glasner/Crystal Palace (delete as appropriate). 😂
 
Have Liverpool become the new Man Utd. Lost good players in the window. New players not firing (yet?).

What has changed from last season? Slot got them performing better than Klopp did in the previous season. Poor recruitment? Hanging on to aging players too long? Maybe the pies are off, or they’ve switched from PG to Typhoo?

There are prob multiple reasons

High turnover of players
Loss of form
Disruptive pre season
Trying to find the right set up

Last season Slot carried on what was built before , this is looking like the transition season at the moment
 
So yesterday whilst sat in the welfare having a few beers after the Remembrance Day parade one of the old soldiers gave us these to sell with all monies going to the poppy appeal. Apparently he got hold of them after the Southampton v Sheff Weds game at the weekend. Lots of folk saying how much there worth, but I think alcohol was a contributing factor 😁
Anyway am gonna stick them on facebook later today for £150 Sheff weds poppy short and probably £80 the Southampton shirt.
Oh ah. I never saw a ball kicked yesterday. 🫣

Be as that all maybe, Slot has a say in all of this.

Kerkez - marauding left back last season. plays him inverting, completely unsuited to this role
Frimpong - as above, but looks more capable & no support from his winger
Ekitike - looks class
Isak - no idea. incredible striker in form, but if we can't get him on the pitch what was the point?
Wirtz - the star young attacking talent in Europe last season, but it aint working atm. was brilliant against Madrid

Outs made sense to me at the time. Assuming a CB replaced Quansah and an attacker replaced Diaz.

Slot has chosen to throw them all in at the start and hope it works. it hasn't and we've thrown the league and the league cup now. transition or not, the teams performance isn't good enough building on the title, irrespective of transfers. we've now conceded 2 goals (or more) in 10 of 16 games this season I believe. that is appalling. It's on the players to do better, absolutely. but it's on the manager to change things and improve things - that isn't happening.

Rotherham Utd usually put all the match worn poppy shirts up for auction on the website - not seen anything for this year though. Some players shirts go for much more than others :ROFLMAO:

PS - Think you are very optimistic wanting £150 for an Owls top - could probably buy the club for that at the moment ;)

I remeember when United had a 'transition season' starting in 2013.
It's still going on ........................... a club can't fully transition in just one season.

It’s hard to judge the likes of Frimpong and Isak as they haven’t really got going yet

Kerkez I find the really confusing one as I’m not sure why they don’t let him play his natural game

Wirtz - it’s going to take time for him

Diaz imo is one that shouldn’t have left

It’s going to take time , this is the transition season that we expected last season
