What I like about Slot is that he's starting closing the wide open back door that we had for a couple of seasons. Gravenbirch has been a revelation too. If we can get another number 6 in to let Mcallister play further up the pitch we'll be flying. That first 25 minutes against Bologna was a sign of where we are going.
That’s exactly what we need mate. That number 6 signing would put us on the level of Man City/Arsenal. Would allow for more midfield rotation as well
Agreed. After Trent’s cmt thot Slot is focusing on his defensive skills I’m convinced he’s our game changer. TAA is still young, now he can focus on his position to solidify his place in history.
When I listen to Slot talk, I brew with plenty confidence.
I see a Liverpool that isn't shaky at the back, I see a bold squad ready to face every situation vehemently coughing out results when things are impossible on the field and I see warriors who wants to fight to be on top.
I prefer tea.
i am happy with the results the performances haven't been good since against Man united
I had faith we would win pretty much all of thise games. The way we control it and give ourselves a rest and have those staggered defnsive lines is perfect to shut up shop and counter. We look like title winners for me
Liverpool got about 6 or 7 proper teams to play now. Let's see after that
Klopp style = rock & roll
Slot style = vienesse waltz
Pure class.
They will get lesser injuries that way...i hope
True Stevie
Great convo lads
Good conversation lads 👌
The PGMOL will ensure Liverpool do not win the league, due to Royal influence
Every team gives chances up, look at city v Fulham you can’t have it your own way all the time
We are still puzzled why we lost against Forest…..🤔
Easy, we didn’t score. Lots of chances are meaningless if some of them don’t end up in the back of the net.
Stevie " they've given some opportunities away ", like c'mon which team hasn't worldwide, let's just extinct goalies then who are there for preventing them opportunities to actual goals🤦♂️, lowest X.G against in the league n they still tryna taint the defensive record, joke🚶♂️
For real. They always judge Liverpool differently.
Always amazes me how pundits selectively change how strong the Premier league is to suit their narrative 🤣.
When they're talking about the league compared to others, "best league in the world by a long distance. Anyone can beat anyone in this league and every team is strong."
When about Liverpool, "they've faced weak opposition so it doesn't mean much."🤣
Wait until they win the PL and UCL at the end of the season, the pundits will still stick with their word and give excuse of lucky, other teams unlucky with cards/injury, bla bla bla...... They will live in denial 😂😂😂😂😂
Liverpool fans backed slot from minute one. And we know if it doesn’t go well during the season it will be because of ownership not him
We haven't played any top 10 teams besides Forest who beat us. Slot can't believe his luck, easiest fixtures he could have hoped for, and Chelsea have defenders suspended for the next game. Teams need to see how Nuno got the better of him and we'll see whether he has a plan B.
Tbh Liverpool's main problem is low block not the big teams
Liverpool played man united away. Ac milan away. in the pre season they won from man united and arsenal. + the current results. this is saying a lot too. In England you can lose points in every match.
The problem with us has always been smaller teams. Random losses and dropped points when we're supposed to win. If we're consistently winning the games we're supposed to win I'm not worried. These players always perform in big games.
@@shepardice3775 That wasn't the case more recently, we couldn't beat the bigger teams last season. No wins against MC, Arsenal or MU. We lost twice in seven years at Anfield under Klopp with a crowd. Slot has lost one already and that was to a so called smaller team.
He has had plan Bs in every game apart from forest so far. Always spots weaknesses and our own weaknesses quickly and makes changes accordingly. I can see us getting 7- 8 wins from 10. I think we will get better going forward and at the back. He is a perfectionist more so than klopp
I predict he wins the Premier league and champions league in his first season and will become the greatest dutch manager ever in England
YNWA 🔥 ♥ 🔥
I think all the pundits won't have any confidence to Arne slot even if he win the PL, UCL this season. Because that is what inside their head and will always be... Nothing will change. 😂😂😂
Easy schedule. Let’s see how the next 7 look
Use actual stats before saying Liverpool performed about the same level as last year. I just can’t wait to laugh at these so-called pundits come December and we’re still at the top.
Can't we just be happy that we are top of the league!?
@@zailkhalsa5261 lol... perhaps
It's definitely better than being 14th !! 🤣😂
The run isnt that hard really. The hard games are all at home apart from arsenal who look a bit wide-open at times
This is so funny like you guys have been under looking Slot even before he joined and he has not been that bad but still 😂
Haters😂
Stevie will ALWAYS find a way to negative the atmosphere on Liverpool🤣.
"However I would suggest that they've given some opportunities away and Kellegher has made some good saves, Alisson has made some good saves. I don't think they're quite as watertight as we think they are."
Stevie pal, you do realise Alisson and Kell making saves means factually they ARE as watertight as we think🤣.
You do still realise that Keepers are part of the defence?🤔😂 they're part of the reason only been 2 goals conceded.
A "leaky defence" is one that concedes chances and don't have a world class keeper, therefore leak goals. If the keeper is world-class, that Stevie ma boy.... means they ARE that watertight.
People don't seem to understand this. Every team concedes chances. The ones with the least goals conceded however, are the ones with a top class final defender being the keeper. Simple common sense really.
"To win the title they have to be better."
Honestly the stupidity is amazing. They're right now, exactly good enough. They're winning every game. That's the definition of good enough.
Liverpool will beat chelsea without stress at anfield. Liverpool attack is dangerous for chelsea defenders to defend well.
Cole palmer is going to look average 😂
The more Liverpool win the game the more stevie unhappy
I listen to the likes of Manchester City bloggers and arsenal bloggers thinking that Liverpool are just a MEDIOCRE football club can't wait to play them pundits saying that Liverpool haven't played anyone seriously yet i called Manchester United serious Palace forest Chelsea ain't no push over just can't wait for these teams like arsenal and City to play the teams Liverpool have played see how they cope with the bias pundits YNWA ❤
😮😮😂😂😂😂klop was postagoglue, one style of playing. Lost two CL finals never learnt, or returned. Played football in one half of the field ignoring there's 2 sides. Trent?....what do i do today boss....oh just get ball, & run up the field leaving a gulf in the middle of the land mark, then it's missiles/war attacks, redfaced. Pot holes on the pitch for invaders rock & dole😅😅😅😅
😊
Wouldn’t go so far to say that he is another Ange, but I do agree with most of it. I’ve heard countless Liverpool fans bark about Klopp being better than Pep, and I’m not sure what sport they’re watching. Pep knows how to adapt, Klopp doesn’t; that’s why Pep has won 6 league titles and Klopp has won 0.7
Maybe Klopp was playing only one style, but he was master of that style. In 2020 he won EPL with 7 games to spare. What has Postecoglue won..?? Why haven't other teams copied Pep's style since it's a proven winning style..?? Think b4 you make your comments & criticisms...
Klopp's style got him 90+ points in 3 seasons and is the reason why city don't have 7 consecutive titles. And he didn't lose the finals because of his style. Any team with an idiot keeper like karius would have lost that game. They also limited Madrid to only one chance in the 2022 final. So the style was perfect.
@@yoni4420 Oh come on, stop blaming Karius. Madrid would have won that game anyways.
Steve is such a pessimistic person hence the reason he failed as a manager
Stevie is right LFC needs to go up another gear to stand any chance of winning the UCL or EPL. For me, LFC are just not killing off teams when they are on top. Both the Wolves and Palace games could have been draws when LFC should have been home and dry. Unless this team learns this lesson we won't win anything this season. The Palace game is a perfect example: Jota should have had a hattrick but the last 20 minutes were a basketball game when the match should have been dead and buried.
Arsenal and City could have had a couple of drawers, too. Fans needs to stop judging Liverpool differently.
He's right...if we don't find another gear we can forget about the 2 trophies@@obifinest521
first 3 games were amazing, dominant and assured since international break performance has been poor just great results
@@obifinest521 We did have a couple of draws, against quality opposition. Tell me which games, besides Fulham, we could have dropped points but we didn’t.
@@lungalunga1470 They were only poor against Forest and Wolves; other than that they were ok
First
Next lose is against Chelsea no doubt
delusional
LFC could have scored at least 3 more goals against Crystal Palace.
And why they lost against Blackburn?
Please look back the match and you will see that Blackburn were nowhere to be seen until… anyway, Arne Slot has started his project which will eventually be very successful!
Mark my words!
Blackburn??
@@lungalunga1470, Shhh… he’s on a roll.
