There are dumb mistakes/unfortunate events made by players in every game - nobody’s perfect - but if the tactics don’t give u the best chance of winning the game then these mistakes are much more costly
Ok - so if there’s no mistakes Mo’s goal still happens and we win 1-0 - that’s not how football works
Yeah - my point exactly. If we try to win the game from the start they don’t become crucial
Yeah - obviously he can’t control things like that - but if you go out to win a game those things don’t end up being as crucial
Ok - fair enough- it’s not all on Slot. But the tactics are stifling them all over the pitch. Virg is on the way to being done, Mo is done which doesn’t help. But Slot’s tactics are all over the place - and the initial tactic is don’t lose rather than go for the win
Players are shackled by tactics- it’s all on Slot. Starting tactic is don’t lose and has been since the bad run after first 5 games
Jeez - the Curtis hate does my head in. Gakpo literally tackled him
I’ve watched it back. I suggest you watch Ali’s kicks in recent games - don’t know whether he’s protecting hamstrings but he scuffs so many of them
Ali had enough time - he just scuffed his clearance
I don’t agree - your goalie is always your out ball. He had enough time - he scuffed his kick - like he’s been doing for weeks
So just because we’re not 17th like under Hodgson - these tactics are acceptable ?
Where’s his options in that clip - nobody shows for a pass.
What’s he supposed to do - hoof it to one of them the way Ali did. Ali had enough time but his kicking has been atrocious for ages
But the players are restricted by the tactics - sent out not to lose instead of being sent out to win
I think that run early in the season broke Slot. Far too concerned with not losing games rather than trying to win them
I don’t agree - if you’re in the corner under pressure your goalie is the out ball - if he kicks it properly- he had enough time
Ali had plenty of time - but his kicking has been dreadful for ages
.. and it’s so good to just be able to celebrate a goal without worrying it’ll be ruled out
Worse - because refs have come to rely on VAR. The cynic in me says they were deliberately bad to prove we need VAR. I’d still bin it - refs would improve without it - and it doesn’t provide enough benefit to outweigh the negatives
Konate man of the match by a mile - been brilliant since coming back from compassionate leave #lfc
So Curtis has definitely joined the not being picked list. We won’t be able to field 11 players if he carries on falling out with them 🤣 #lfc
And also no fans
Was also played In empty stadiums which made it a bit of a freak season
Creating chances - really ? Apart from Burnley we’ve hardly created anything - and are so open at the back. Even Barnsley carved us open
Me too
It wasn’t bad luck. We look really badly coached - create nothing and incredibly open at the back
Why is Virg always 2 yards deeper than the other defenders - been doing it all season
Barnsley ?
Nicol is definitely a click bait pundit
