Post Match EFL Cup Crystal Palace (H) 0-3 29th October 19:45

Yeh I saw that..

But everywhere else is suggesting he has been added to domestic competitions only.

Did we sell anyone before the transfer window shut that was part of the original squad?

Can't remember
 
Slot on his team selection:
"We don't have a big squad as people might think as there was so much focus on the money we've spent... If I played Virgil or Ibou and one of them got injured people would say what a stupid choice. Also even with our starters it's difficult to beat Palace."

-------

My word. Why buy two luxury players then?
Fucking hell, he's not allowed to complain.
 
Sack the cunt. Anyone defending him must’ve had a lobotomy.

Everything was slow. Like it was a July friendly. Every time someone got the ball it was stop it, go back a little, then see forward and most likely lose it. Not even playing the percentages of getting it and putting it in spaces where the wingers or forward would be. No playing it ahead of the man. The gap between back and front after 30 minutes was bigger than the gap between Bonnie Blue’s legs.

The first 30 were okay at best, then everyone started blowing and going even slower because they were not match fit. There was no intensity which meant no fight or even showing they had a right to be on that pitch.

I asked my lads what was the best thing about the match and I got back staying up late and the Chiesa song.

What if Kerkez or Robbo got injured? Oh.
 
That is fucking unbelievably embarrassing.

Just say sorry to the supporters and move on. This whole thing about how direct the Dutch are doesn't seem to be in operation when the Vulcan admission would be "I'm fucking up."
 
Oh i forgot. A fucking spell during the second half where we had that flat back 5 of Ramsay, Endo, Gomez, Robertson and Kerkez. A FLAT BACK FIVE WHEN 2-0 DOWN AT FUCKING HOME TO FUCKING CRYSTAL FUCKING PALACE.
 
This is the worst start to defence of title since well Liverpool in 20/21..

Ok you could argue say city last season tbf.. but they did start well..
 
The signing I don't get it Wirtz .

On paper he looks class. In reality, he just an upgrade on Elliot that slot would not play anyway
 
It makes you want to cry seeing how Diaz is ripping it up in the bundesliga. .

Boy are we missing him

I'm sick of seeing Gakpo one trick pony starting every game..
 
I don't think any of the players are so shit. But I don't understand, other than in the fever dream of a forum poster posting their proposed 11 with all the attackers, how it was meant to work together when we lose the ball.
 
Yeh I know he been better in the last few games .

But still he is the player that made me want to shout at the TV more then anyone else this season..

Yeh the team has lost its grit .

For sure..

The signing with the exception of Ekitike are just not natural pressers at all..
 
The manager can't even own up to deciding to essentially throw a game. It's unlikely to produce a culture of accountability.

I've not watched the post match interview TBF.

But it the best example of I've seen of throwing a game since it was forced on klopp back in 2019..
 
I want to believe that we can salvage this season by going for the CL. I saw it happen in 04/05, but with Rafa you knew that he could coach us to beat any team on any given day.
I have zero confidence for this guy.
 
This is almost as exciting as our passing triangles.
Look, don't mention the passing triangles, right? It's painful.

We have to do them a day earlier than everyone else, it's unfair to make the players decide on who they prefer to pass to, the mental strain is just too much, and that bastard u21s coach keeps insisting on launching the ball at us like he's Rory Delap. And every training day is like a Tuesday night in Stoke, on a Saturday morning!
 
I was proud of my son today, at least. He's still not seen us score a goal at home. It wasn't until the 81st minute 2-0 down and down to ten men that he sighed and said "we might not win this." He stayed until the end to support the team.

It's when you hear little stories like that that you get even more pissed off with the approach this season. How many other kids were there experiencing their first taste of Anfield?

I'm okay with a weakened side. But no excuses now, Arne. You need some really good results and performances in the next 3 games.
 
I fear that he's slowly undoing all the good work Klopp did.
It’s him and the cunts that signed these twats. We have fucked ourselves over for a decade. Buying from a position of strength, went out like a mad woman’s piss and then look around wondering what the fuck happened.

Mate, mine were the same. Even at 90 the eldest was “If we get a goal every minute we can go to pens”. I think he may have caught the bug. The youngest was more interested in snacks. I can’t blame him really. To be fair, he didn’t ask about going home which he did after 8 minutes of the Athletic game pre-season.

We also stayed the full game. It broke my heart to see it emptying out after the red card and the kids asking where is everyone going. Same at 3-0.
 
I saw the majority of my games at anfield at the end of houlliers time and there was zero belief, so it can be done, the children just have to be as stupid as I was in my early 20s. Good luck.

Yeah Dutch plus high ego is calling everyone else a dick but you
 
Slot needs a shoeing. You don’t drop everyone to save yourself for the league like Brodge did throwing away the Madrid game.

In fairness, Real away in Europe isn't Palace in the League Cup.

Agree that this turned out poorly and Slot's comments are worse. But this isn't what Rodgers did.
