@onlyfooty22@_lfcleanne Didn’t he do that, only wirtz played left when he dropped gakpo? I think it’s the rcm covering that hasn’t been enough all season. I’m just no buying salah has been scapegoated.
This was going to happen to any manager who was in charge of him when the inevitable decline occured. He's still played more minutes than any other forward - the entire fan base was calling for him to be dropped - now they're all saying he shouldn't be. Football fans are stupid.
@_lfcleanne I’d have given salah time instead of isak personally,but to be clear, I’m not saying salah causes the problem, just that he is unfortunately a casualty and saying you can’t drop him because you still play gakpo doesn’t work in my head.
@_lfcleanne And I’m gutted it looks to be ending this way for a club legend, but i bet other have had similar in the past, but it’s a different world now with attitudes. How did St John feel?
@_lfcleanne Wirtz in middle is starting to allow him to show what he can do, dom on right also working better. Whether gakpo is worth his place more than mo doesn’t come into it unless mo can play left (which was my genuine question as I only remember him and sadio swapping occasionally)
@_lfcleanne I don’t think he has defensive lapses. He’s defended more this year than last which is why he’s not been as threatening. I think he’s been dropped for team balance, szob in middle covering right throws things out elsewhere.
Completely correct this. And, as ever, the S doesn't just mean sustainable for one club or indeed just Premier League clubs but about being sustainable for the whole pyramid. Which spiralling costs at the top wouldn't be and demonstrably haven't been.
This news was always going to be a body blow to the club whenever it came.
I just thought it would be another few years away.
What a manager, what a man, let’s go out with a bang Jurgen!
Christmas is a time when families get together and celebrate. With the brutal war going on in the Middle East, especially the death and destruction in Gaza, this year we get to Christmas with very heavy hearts and we share the pain of those families who are grieving the loss of their loved ones. Please do not forget them and do not get used to their suffering. Merry Christmas.
These people are awful. The worst. ‘By the end of the season’. Klopp had it right. Whatever madness the American capitalists have in mind will be considerably less awful than then the status quo. Marching with placards for UEFA or FIFA is insane. They are the bigger problem. Nothing that follows could be worse.
The two commentators on TNT slamming the Ayew sending off because 'fans deserve better'. This from a broadcaster that thinks nothing of fans being dragged 200 miles for a 12.30 kickoff. The pair of them just didn't shut up all game, absolute cliche factory #CRYLIV
VAR: We can't go back and give that Diaz goal, it happened over 30 seconds ago, Soz.
Also VAR: A minute and 45 seconds, no bother. Of course we can give a penalty now.
