@henrywinter The FA will use any slip up in the Nations League as a reason to sack him before the real business of the Euro qualifiers start next year. They don’t want to go into a home tournament with a lame duck manager. I would imagine Pep will be suitably refreshed come March.
@Chris78Williams@TheAnfieldWrap Appreciate what you’re saying and I have my concerns over any sale but…. being local and understanding the city didn’t help us much after the late 80s. Neither did selling to Hicks and Gillet.
@Jawida76@davidlynchlfc Completely agree with this. There’s been plenty of times after a defeat this season where the dust has settled and then a random article comes out telling us how great a coach Slot is. Doesn’t help when club legends and former managers are discredited in the process as well.
@Simon_Hughes__@nytimes In 10 years time Slot, Hughes and Edwards are going to be a distant memory and we’re going to look back and wince at how we allowed them to manage the end of Salah’s career at Liverpool.
@asim_lfc@AnfieldSector Personally, I’m almost at the point where it would be better if Hughes/Edwards were removed first and then the managerial position was dealt with later by people who actually had the club’s long term interests at heart.
@DKingTelegraph@TelegraphSport The addition and integration of half a billion pounds worth of players has been frequently used as an excuse for the failure this season. Why would providing more players to a manager that is clearly out of his depth help in any way?
@Yorktone Keep noticing his throw when I watch the goal back from Saturday. Initially looks to go back but then changes at the last second. Sliding doors and all that. 🥰 @gregolley7
@Jawida76@LewisSteele_@IanDoyleSport Was going to write a similar question but articulated here perfectly. What’s the thinking here? Before blowing another half a billion on players this summer, surely it’s less of a gamble to rid the club of Slot, Edwards and Hughes and start again?
@Rimbeux@SamMcGuire90 Yeah good point re the results in the second games last season. Would explain a lot. Hope for his sake he’s able to take all this on and move on with career. Wouldn’t like to see him bristling at Bristol City in 40 years trying to prove his methods! 😂
