I would be really mad with the ref if I were a Brentford fan.
Gomez comes on for Wirtz. Slot sends Szoboszlai up front to try to win something.
Defensively ill-conceived.
Offensively ill-engineered.
This situation is demanding a return to the basics and start from scratch again.
@mlawton What would make sense:
- Start the game calmly
- Start Robbo
- Don't make big mistakes in the first half
- Seize the game
- Whenever Robbo begins to tire, 50 minutes, 60 minutes, 70 minutes.... anytime... only THEN bring Kerkez on.
I can't understand what's Arne Slot trying to do, or why he insists when he just doesn't have the material to do whatever it is that he wants.
@vruz I know Robbo has lost some speed, but I’d much prefer him for 70’. Some stability.

Kerkez. I can’t figure him out at all. Trying not to pile on, but he’s a hole in the side that I don’t understand why Slot insists on a continued baptism by fire.
Unused going forward on overlaps. Wasteful when he does get the ball.
@vruz @BillSaysThis It certainly looks like Tsikimas's exit was premature.
You're right, and I don't know what others think, but it was evident to me, even without seeing the challenges Kerkez is facing.
But maybe that wasn't a Slot or Liverpool decision and Tsimikas wanted to leave.
I like what Wirtz is trying to do, but he can't do everything himself alone, he needs contributors, partners, collaborators.
@vruz is three days too soon for Robbo to go again?
@BillSaysThis Probably yes, but Arne Slot's job is to find solutions for that kind of problem.
This was so predictable it's unbelievable to me that Arne Slot couldn't see it.
Impossible to ignore this is now a pattern.
Loud away Kop singing Mo's song.
Two defensive changes from the previous game may be one too much. We'll see what Arne has prepared for late dinner tonight.
8 pm BST, isn't that a bit unusual this time of the year for a Premier League game?
It's better than waking up early to see the sunrise before a Saturday game, as the punishment usually goes, but still unusual to me at least.
@IanDoyleSport If he doesn't eat all his soup? 🤣
I'm still watching this goal non-stop.
The #LFC boss will only become truly concerned about Mohamed Salah should one thing happen 👇🔴
