Anything not to lose.
You can understand it in the context of this game. The problem is that this is part of a wider trend.
Konate let himself down by not knocking Martinelli’s head off his shoulders.
Exactly.
I don't understand the lack of subs, but it's not as if anyone on the bench is any good.
Nope. If Tekkers were fit he wouldn't have swapped out Gakpo, it would have been Frimpong or some other idiocy.
I agree Tekkers for Gakpo would have made it more interesting
He’s the manager of Liverpool for fuck sake. I don’t care about his ego.
Nine seems quite hight to my memory. More importantly I was never too concerned
They're gonna walk the league and they're fucking shit. Unforgivable for what the management have presided over this season. This was a real chance to build upon success and win 2,3,4 leagues on the bounce. Instead, we're scrambling around with Brentford.
A wing back, an attacking mid and a left sided attacker is the best we can cobble together allegedly. I simply can't believe we'd have been worse with Cheesy on instead of Gakkers
Loads of good performances today. Really pleased for Kerkez and Macca who looked on today. We played them off the park in the 2nd half.
Regarding the no subs I can understand it as we had full control and there was no need to disrupt our set up. But a Rio for Gakpo sub made sense.
In the end, excellent

No. I just like my attackers to pass the ball and not look completely fucking lost in possession
... and not ALWAYS predicably turn inside every single fucking time
Well well well.
The pre game thread was littered with comments about being humiliated, bummed, destroyed and phoning in a performance.
We started out like any team away to a top of the table side. Keep the crowd quiet for the first 20 which we did.
Our defensive shape was exceptional and we grew into the first half from there.
Should have been leading at the break after some beautiful play through their press on multiple occasions.
The second half was virtually complete domination away to Arsenal with 69% possession. Remember everyone said we wouldn’t have the ball?
We were composed, brave and intelligent on the ball. Very rarely took the safe option and played some fucking magical one touch football to keep the ball and create opening.
Only twice this season in 30 games Arsenal have failed to score, both against us.
They didn’t have a shot at all until stoppage time in the second half and on another day one of Dom 4 or 5 strikes would have gone in.
I do wish Frimpong shot or found Wirtz with that opportunity but all things considered that was an incredible second half display.
Does it mean we’ve turned the corner no.
Does it mean we’ll get up to third or second no.
Does it mean Slot is safe or doing enough no.
What it does show is that he’s a hell of lot better than most give him credit for and this team is slowly gelling and their is a chink of light at the end of the tunnel.
It also tells me my inkling that we can win the CL with a bit of luck is spot on. We can match anyone on our day.
And all of that without:
Isak
Hugo
Salah
Get them back for the run in and we can hurt anyone in Europe.
@Modo how’s that humble pie?

Playing like he should get the armband after Virgil
you must’ve missed my post where we won by 3 and linda got her tits out
Oh and 10 unbeaten in all comps now and extending the longest unbeaten run in the league.
A huge turn around from losing 9 in 12 but of course Slot will get little credit for that.
