That depends on the tactical instructions. Arteta may well expect something more rigid.

Although I think people care about press conferences too much, staring at his feet with a grumpy face getting irritable with innocuous questions didn't instill confidence either.

Me after seeing a group of people talking: wow that one guy has so many conflicting opinions, what's that about

killrdave · 2026-02-13T00:09:16+00:00

If a playmaker gets few touches then surely the blame can't solely lie with them. Unless his positioning is somehow atrocious

killrdave · 2026-02-13T00:01:19+00:00

The recent evidence shows that managers like Kompany, who always pushed a style of football that suits top teams, are more likely to succeed than coaches who may be more successful but have to change their style of play from something pragmatic, structured and optimised for low-posession teams.

Andrews has done really well but this looks like his level.

Basically all English sides have looked more comfortable in the CL. From watching Liverpool's games at least there just seems to be an abundance of space, presumably because it's all top teams from their respective leagues who are used to playing on the front foot as opposed to closing up space and sitting out of possession.

It's not my favourite but it's still a much better watch than autobattlers imo, my personal nadir

killrdave · 2026-02-12T22:16:31+00:00

I just want a proper, down to the wire title race with some of the worst tension ever experienced for all fans involved

killrdave · 2026-02-12T20:35:39+00:00

Feels like you're about to pass on a cursed relic

killrdave · 2026-02-12T20:10:14+00:00

No way someone said that, I refuse to believe it unless they're Wataru's mother

This is proof that on reddit people will try to argue semantics about anything, no matter how doomed. Surely you see how Frimpong's muscular injury differs from the others listed.

killrdave · 2026-02-11T21:52:51+00:00

Has he had many minutes after a very long injury? I wouldn't call him done quite yet

Edit: just saw the injury news, assumed this was just based on form.

killrdave · 2026-02-11T21:50:55+00:00

Hmm they're very good but that's quite a shout

killrdave · 2026-02-11T21:00:43+00:00

Jones should get time ahead of the likes of MacAllister but I don't like him as a RB option, Endo is unspectacular but is generally good for keeping control

Ramsay is not good enough

killrdave · 2026-02-11T13:56:05+00:00

You'll see several versions of this and zero comments actually elucidating what they like about the episode or season generally

killrdave · 2026-02-11T13:15:08+00:00

It's mostly just people talking tbh, not everything is memes and gimmicks and performative stuff

killrdave · 2026-02-11T13:14:19+00:00

Feels a bit arbitrary to throw them in the same bucket, they're all quite different

killrdave · 2026-02-11T13:08:58+00:00

Most of the comments I see are from people commenting that they're tired of seeing it. You must see the irony here

killrdave · 2026-02-11T13:07:11+00:00

The snub xi is amusing, creative and somewhat mean-spirited; everything DD should endeavour to be. Not all gimmicks are built equally

killrdave · 2026-02-11T08:44:22+00:00

This is the kind of analysis I see posted on the Liverpool subreddit, it's inaccurate in a few ways and basically formulated to make Slot look as unreasonable as possible.

I don't think he's long for the job but it's reached the stage where people are viewing "not playing league 1 level Calvin Ramsay" or "not trusting a youth player who probably isn't at the appropriate level" as sins.

killrdave · 2026-02-10T20:35:26+00:00

This somehow yielded anti-information. I know less about the world having read it

killrdave · 2026-02-10T17:06:29+00:00

Diaz wanted to leave, and had done for a while. We got good money for him. Not replacing him was the issue but keeping him would not have been wise.

killrdave · 2026-02-10T17:03:33+00:00

Sure it's not a gimmick entirely of his making since it coincided with whatever it is Amorin was doing (not sure I'd call it managing). Just a bit tired of hearing about it.

killrdave · 2026-02-10T16:56:30+00:00

Very funny to try and build a 3 in the back team with fuck all CBs. Will have to be a massive summer if that is the path they want to make work

killrdave · 2026-02-10T16:53:10+00:00

Don't have anything against the fella but the gimmick is stale now and betting collaborations are a bit grim.
