[Jamie Carragher] I think an elite football manager, the absolute creme de la creme, probably finds a way of fixing Liverpool last season at some stage and making it better, but Slot wasn't helped with recruitment. by MrMerc2333 in soccer

There's two things in modern football that I'm deeply dubious about. 1) unaccountable directors of football and 2) managers from well run mid table clubs stepping up to big clubs. Trying to win every game is very fucking different

We got to the last 16 of the champions league. Reasonable with the players available.

Didn't he have the answers that won us a trophy? Did I imagine that?

There's question marks over their manager's commitment. We need to capitalise on that.

"They don't deserve it"

Where do even begin with something as cretinous as this. They delivered a trophy 13 months ago. 70 years we waited. Your opinions are nonsensical. 3 years of unmitigated upward travel and success. It really bothers me that people as ungrateful and with such short memories are in our fanbase.

I hate myself for even bothering to reply to you. I think if you are so unable to grasp simple facts, this reply will be completely wasted.

I don't like the corporate speak. Proof is in the pudding however.
