Can you explain to me what you think look impressive?
Arne Slot | Liverpool manager (Posture Watch)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Yes, and we have had the most difficult run of matches..
What bearing does that have on any assessment of Slot's first few months at Liverpool?
I don't see how we are relevant.
Barcelona did last night.
Maybe that’s his talent then that he doesn’t really get into a situation in which he may became a mad men
But in all seriousness, you’re Dutch and I am as well. We both know how he went from AZ to Feyenoord, he didn’t depart in the best possible way but he always remained a gentlemen. I’m pretty sure he will stay himself even after 5 loses in a row

Didnt Slot his contract expire? He was free to negotiate with other clubs and AZ threw a hissy fit. AZ fired him because he left to a club they want to see as a rival?
Think his point is that despite that he never spoke ill of AZ.
I know. We had piss easy fixtures early on, like going to old Trafford in round 3, whilst you had pto play the top team in the same round before you had time to build momentum. Hardly seems fair .
We are diabolically shit under ETH. Wouldn't count that at all.
I have to agree with Lee Dixon. As much as I hate it, I think Liverpool have a good manager in Arne Slot. As I said after his post match interview when they played us, what he says makes sense.
If the title challenge is genuine they have to let him sign in January, they’re still the third best team on paper, don’t think they will though
It seems Liverpool have been a dominant force in football for so long now. Yet they have hardly won the big prizes.
If they don't win the league title this year. That will be over 5 years for a team considered one of the best in their history.

One league title in 35 years is hardly dominant. The only ones who have been dominant in recent times are Man City.
Definitely one of the best sides in the club’s history in past few years. Finishing above 90pts 3 times, getting to 3 CLs all points to excellence.
But up against a problematic but extraordinarily strong club. It would sting more if an authentic football project (Wenger’s Arsenal, Ferguson’s United) had stood in Liverpool’s way in that period. City’s endeavours stopped Klopp’s great side. Oh well.
Amusing to see Slot complaining about the referee after yesterdays game. They got extremely lucky with at least 2 decisions that would have changed the game completely.
Careful, we’ll start hearing about the points totals again.
Edit: I can see they’ve already made their appearance.
Why is his jaw turning into Klopp. Do they give their managers some sort of weird jaw clenching drug?
Oh for gods sake. Got to stop posting at my desk!
Bring back Klopp.
They're looking good to be fair
Slot v Amorim the new Pep v Klopp.
Damn
Honestly thought it would be a struggle this season but he’s making it look easy

The last of the baldhicans
My brother is convinced he will surpass Klopp. Apparently Slot is able to adapt in game on the fly whereas (in his opinion) Klopp sometimes didn't really have a Plan B.
I'm hoping once these good players go, they sign a few duds and just feck off into the darkness again.

Nah, Klopp was absolutely outstanding at in game adjustments.
I’ll be convinced once Liverpool play someone above them in one of the various leagues they’re in.
I see what you did there!
Liverpool and Barcelona are the two stand out teams this season in Europe..i hope they meet at some point later in the season.
I think in a strange way Slot has been helped by the fact that Liverpool brought in hardly any players in the summer (except I think Chiesa who's barely played?)
That way, he's just been able to focus on making some tactical tweaks to an already settled team, and it's worked out perfectly for him so far. He hasn't had the added complication of trying to bed in 3 or 4 new signings into a team he's just taken over himself.
I wish he had brought a few Feyenoord "Antonys" with him and spent the season trying to incorporate them into the team!

Agreed, he has a settled team on his hands and there is no urgent need to add players to any position, they might do with a lethal striker aka Gyokeres, but they have Salah & Diaz scoring for fun, solid midfield and a very solid backline, and a decent bench that includes good options, hate to say it but they are looking to be the ones to give City a run for their money in terms league title challenge
Traversing the winter glut of games and being unprepared for both the intensity and need for rotation could well be their/his undoing, so there’s hope for capitulation yet.
Looking for their next 'tough' fixture on what I can judge them on, Villa next but at home, Southampton away, Madrid but at home, City afterwards but at home. Would anyone be surprised if they won all them? Need to wait until December now for a juicy away game, which is at Newcastle...not seeing where they drop points and where we can potentially close that gap Robbie.....

Wait till they get a few injuries, he's flogging the same team every week.
Saying that they never get injuries do they?

I bet he would've won the US Election.
Is it 14 wins from 16 games? That's absolutely mental, especially for a new manager.
Hes doing a good job but nothing more at the moment. He inherited a great team that has smatterings of world class players, a very strong identity and style of play and players who are used to working hard. The change of manager has done them good because very few teams ever sustain things for many many years under the same manager.
We will see if hes actually that good in a few years when Salah has moved on or lost his powers. When VVD has to be replaced.
I have no idea why people thought replacing Klopp would be a really hard job. He didn't hand over a crap team that had been overachieving. He didn't leave a team in the dumps.

They don't need to win all of their games, Arsenal are not closing the gap. Arsenal are battling top 4 this season, they won't be in the title race. Even if Liverpool start to drop points, Arsenal don't look good enough this season to put up a long winning run.
