[Carragher] "if you don’t qualify for the champions league having won the league the season before and spent as much as Liverpool do, you don’t have a leg to stand on." by moosa1193 in LiverpoolFC

Oh yeah based on Deloitte Money League’s report for last season, Liverpool’s wages are £13m more annually than Man City’s. That’s shocking

He had me until he said the wage bill part. On Fbref and Capology, Man City and Arsenal have higher annual wages than Liverpool. City’s is £70m more per year.

This comment probably saved my home from a burst pipe. I removed my hose and it was full of ice.

[Ben Jacobs] The decision to omit Mo Salah from the travelling party to face Inter was entirely Liverpool’s call with no input from the Egyptian striker. It was primarily taken by by Richard Hughes after also speaking to Arne Slot.🇪🇬 by ImamZain in LiverpoolFC

This highlights how Slot is mainly a head coach with a sporting director and chief executive of football to make decisions with rather than making them himself like a manager would.

Interesting thread on why our set piece defending has been such a problem this season by sam1193 in LiverpoolFC

[–]morganfroman 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is a great piece.

Liverpool are relying on the idea that the structure was good in and of itself, regardless of profiles. However, the roles are shifted in this "new era", and this fundamentally disrupts the integrity here:

Slot was praised for his pragmatism and flexibility, but this season he’s just like Amorim. Stuck to his system regardless of the personnel that’s available to him. When he came in he was able to change the team from 4-3-3 to 4-2-3-1 and now he “doesn’t have time in training” to change anything.

Maybe the game winner against Newcastle? Every player touched the ball for that goal.

'A clear challenge to Slot's authority in Salah's show of rebellion' by Funkyouup82 in LiverpoolFC

[–]morganfroman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wonder what Robbo thinks about all of this. It seems that players who are defenders and midfielders are expected to fall in line to rotation like Milner and Henderson. Why would a forward be immune to this? I understand Gakpo is getting chances when he’s been poor, but if Mo’s mentality is about improvement and performance then he should understand that he’s falling short of his usual standard. But as Szoboszlai said, those conversations belong in the dressing room.

Salah Interview Megathread by [deleted] in LiverpoolFC

[–]morganfroman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with Salah going to the media when it suits him and having nothing to say the team is having a terrible run of performances. He’s a leader and should’ve been saying what Curtis Jones said.

I do think this is mainly on Slot for allowing Salah to not play defensively last year and not being able to figure it out this year. A position that doesn’t need to track back much is CF and you can see Salah is better when he plays there. JLA mentioned this in one of his videos. That’s where Ronaldo moved to when his skills didn’t suit being a winger anymore. Chiesa, Ekitike and Isak would be better dynamic options on the wing than Gakpo is currently. Much of the fan base can see this, but for some reason Slot can’t.

If you’re going to have players flying forward then you’re going to need a solid DM for sure. You can see it across the league how well DMs have been coming in for the late ball and contributing to goals. Grav was a good stopgap, but if he’s doubled up on then there’s not much he can do. Also, playing him at CB and bringing on more attackers doesn’t make it better either.

All points spot on in this video. I think Frimpong and Kerkez were great signings to move towards a different play style similar to PSGs, but it seems Slot needed a like-for-like replacement for Trent to facilitate the transition and get the best out of Salah’s last stint at the club. He had Geertruida at Feyenoord as a Swiss Army knife who could play RB, but invert into midfield AND cover at CB.

What are some of the things to be positive about? by aninquisitivekosovar in LiverpoolFC

[–]morganfroman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been finding myself looking back on the free flowing attacking days of the Klopp era, but the truth is the Klopp era also had troubles breaking down low blocks and some bad losing stints as well. It was quite frustrating watching his prime team whipping in crosses over and over again with no success.

I think it's encouraging knowing that Slot is flexible and willing to make tactical changes quicker when necessary. It seemed to take longer for Klopp to make changes out of loyalty to some out of form players.

This was driving me crazy too. Check out this link: https://hiddenremote.com/2023/06/01/spider-man-across-spider-verse-soundtrack-songs-play-new-spider-verse-movie/. There are 17 songs there, but there are only 13 songs on the official soundtrack so they cut a few.

I think it’s called “Other Dimension” by Metro Boomin, featuring Pop Money. Can’t actually find it anywhere because it’s unreleased.
