Og hvorfor en brite? Hvad har de vist siden Ferguson?

Fint, Hasse!

Fint, andi!

@Hasse
Det er sørgeligt hvordan folk ikke læser hvad der bliver skrevet, men jeg skal da nok for tredje gang lave MIN lille liste:
1) Eddie Howe
2) Brendan Rogers
3) Xabi Alonso
4) Craig Bellamy (den frække)

Jeg orker dig simpelthen ikke mere. Din animositet over for mig må du gerne have, men du må til gengæld også selv rode med den. Du ryger ned i kassen med Kanmandet. Der kan I så hygge jer alt det i vil, men jeg gider simpelthen ikke svare - bare til orientering.

@Andib
Dit spørgsmål må du selv få lov at besvare - det lyder retorisk og ikke som ærlig nysgerrighed.
Jeg vil have en britisk træner og flere britiske spillere for at holde fast i den britiske identitet. Jeg savner den, og jeg synes det er trist at kigge på nationaliterne i trupsammensætningen.

Det er summer det meget godt op:

‼️ Slot´s Liverpool in Managed Decline

I am beyond bored now. Liverpool are not merely dull to watch, they are anaesthetised. The 0–0 with Leeds was not an accident or an off day, it was the logical outcome of a side playing football as an act of self preservation rather than expression.

Liverpool had the ball, lots of it, but possession has become a comfort blanket. It is hoarded, stroked, recycled, and never trusted. Leeds sat deep, invited pressure, and were scarcely troubled. One glaring Ekitike miss aside, there was no sense of threat, no surge, no collective insistence that a goal had to be forced into existence. The game passed without heat, without anger, without belief. Anfield knew it early, that familiar sinking feeling, and the cold only sharpened the emptiness.

This is not control. It is fear dressed up as structure. Everything is slowed down, choices are delayed, risk is treated as recklessness. The ball moves, but the team does not.

I´d give Konate, Van Dijk, Ekitike, Rio and Frimpong 7/10, the rest of them get 5 at best. Alexis Mac Allister is a genuine worry now, he was supposed to come on with freshness and purpose, but it´s like playing with 10-men. I know it goes against permitted convention to criticise Florian Wirtz, but he looks like a lad missing the Bundesliga´s winter break.

Arne Slot looks like a manager managing himself now. The football screams caution, and so do the words afterwards. Bland, obvious observations that insult the intelligence of anyone who watched. There is a widening chasm between what is said and what our eyes report. That is always dangerous ground.

I do not believe Liverpool will sack him mid season. That decision, if it were coming, would already have arrived. The floor was always Champions League qualification, however it was achieved, however joyless the route. And he will probably get there, not because Liverpool are good, but because too many others are worse. That is not progress, it is survival.

What worries me more is the erosion of identity. Whatever still lingered from the Klopp years is dissolving into something grey and joyless. Liverpool no longer impose themselves, they negotiate with matches. They wait. They hope. They endure.

After a day like that, honesty was required. A simple admission that this was not good enough, that supporters deserved better than freezing through a performance devoid of courage. Instead we get detachment.

Fulham is next. I will not watch it live, and for the first time in a long time, I am not particularly bothered. That is the real defeat.

Fint, Rigtig rød!

@DBR
Undskyld, selvfølgelig skal du også med i den fine kasse. Man har bare en tendens til at glemme dig fordi du ingenting mener, men bare hepper på de store drenge i skolegården.
Sig goddag til L4rens og Kanmandet.

Tak, Rigtig rød, så ignorerer jeg også dine konstante sure opstød fremover.

@Rigtig Rød

Det er sgu da omsonst at nævne en træner, der aldrig igen bliver træner i klubben, så længe FSG er ejere og Edwards bestemmer. De fyrede manden både pga resultaterne, men ikke mindst fordi, han i den grad modarbejdede analyse holdet der skulle finde spillere til ham/klubben.

Måske lige en tand mindre bittert herinde?

Ja ikke at jeg skal agere gårdvagt, men det giver ikke just lyst til at kaste sig ind i en debat, at det er røget ned på personfnidderniveau. Imo i al fald.

Nej jeg tænkte egentlig blot på, at jeg synes de er ret langt efter trænermæssigt. I min optik er de ikke gode nok. Hvis det styres mere længere oppefra, så er det vel egentlig også lige meget om det er en britisk manager, hvis dem længere oppe i systemet er af en anden holdning.
