I kinda get why Slot hasn't been playing him tbh. He knows he has virtually no margin for error anymore and has just decided to roll with a top five keeper in the world for every game.
Agree in the PL, but he should have started in the FA last week and previous games as well. Said it then too. Too many games and too injury prone and here we are.
Unreal draw lol.
FA CUP QUARTERFINALS
Arsenal @ Southampton
Port Vale @ Chelsea
Liverpool @ Man City
Leeds @ West Ham/Brentford
Of course we get City.

Game day. Up the Reds!
Whether I agree with it or not, Slot is under immense pressure to get this team to at minimum a semi-finals again, in my opinion. I know we undoubtedly have the harder path, but as we get a bit more healthy (looking at you Isak and Wirtz), rotate Gomez and Frimpong at RB, Rio playing more and more, and our overall difference in play between the CL and EPL, I think getting to a semi-final should be the goal.

Looks like Wirtz out left and Szoboszlai behind Ekitike. Glad to see Gakpo finally on the bench
Elite start. Off a corner as per usual this year.
We're going to be the better team in open play, just need to keep our heads screwed on.

Yep. Excellent pressing the first 5 mins. Created a handful of chances. And then we are undone by a set piece. Need to take advantage of Sanchez's gifts
Hello Earth to Liverpool perhaps mark Osimhen....
The passing is so bad in the final third.
HOLY S*** WAKE UP VVD AND KONATE MY GOD
Get Mac Allister tf off the field and get Wirtz in the center of the park. Also get Frimpong on the field good lord.
We are what we are...and it's not good and a tough watch. Same stuff, different day. Wide open in the midfield, like unbelievably bad...acres of open space. Toothless/plodding on attack, and leaky in the back.
Mac Allister off, Frimpong on is also the change I'd make. We aren't playing that bad, just needed to put away at least a few of the chances we've created. Wirtz should have at least one goal by now.
Ekitike
Frimpong - Wirtz - Salah
Szoboszlai - Gravenberch
Kerkez - VvD - Konate - Gomez
Mamardashvili
But we all know Gakpo is coming on on the LW so.....

It's true, and I am not sure why it frustrates me so much still lol. I don't even blame Slot all that much. We're just bad around him in way too many positions, then you couple that with what he wants to do and it's disaster.
I think everyone always knew we'd fall off some and have to rebuild a bit when Salah, VVD, Andy and TAA either got old or left. But the level of fall off we have seen from Salah, Gakpo, Mac Allister, and VVD (not all year just at times) as been absolutely shocking.
It's the same ol' s..t with this team.
Referee was also a POS. They get away with murder and hacking but if we breathe wrong... What's funny is that all the fouls in the box during set pieces that should be called in the PL were given today. Even things that weren't fouls like VvD beating their GK to the ball. But if we foul in the box, we lose possession; if they foul in the box, they retake the corner. Lastly, fact that Davinson Sanchez got a yellow for the most innocuous kick but Osimhen, Yilmaz, Lemina, and Lang all escaped with nothing...
I predicted 1-1 which probably would have been a fair result. But 1-0 is not the worst thing to be taking back to Anfield. If Anfield and the Kop are loud and we catch an early goal, we'll win the tie. The longer the hold on to their advantage, the more they'll sit in a low block. Hopefully we are up for this 2nd leg bc they are there for the taking and are not very good away from home.

Completely fair or not, it's time to move on from Slot. It's not all him, but he isn't absolved from it either, and that's just the way it goes. Too much of this junk all year long and no improvement except when they got out of the complete suckage form, which isn't saying much. Regardless of roster/age issues, they have lost that mentality/desire it seems and are just so meh (at best) in everything. Securing CL next year isn't going to save him either at this point imo.
I just want this year to be over, Slot to get fired even though I think that's super harsh on him, and for us to sell Gakpo, Mac Allister, and Salah for whatever we can and move on.
Yeah I don't think CL matters one way or the other. Go get Alonso if you can and bring in more guys.
Don't forget Ibou. If not for a questionable offsides decision he would have given up an absolutely terrible goal where he made two boneheaded errors in one play.
The whole night he looked uncomfortable trying to deal with Osimhen and looked completely overmatched.
We are lucky to leave that game only down 1 and we still have a real chance to win the tie at home. We just need every single player to perform much better...
