Our summer signings have been mostly disastrous.

Id say around that. I don't want either of them on the pitch!
I can't remember a time when Chiesa played more than a 3/10 when he's been on the pitch tbh.
Great half. An in-form Salah away from this game being out of sight in truth. Not just the penalty but most times he gets the ball it's a shadow of what we expect. Any other season this sort of performance would see us cruising. Not having that elite goal scorer looks like the difference. #lfc
It's been poor from top to bottom. Poorly coached, poor recruitment. Think it's now pretty clear both are true. We've got a team that doesn't know how to play their way to big chances and players who don't fit together.
Wasn't the way last season. All the improvements from the season before felt like coaching. So odd. But now I agree, everything points to him not coaching them properly.
Truth is we are absolutely nowhere near good enough to win a trophy or get top 4. We are both a poorly coached team and a team which made a mess of it's summer business. #lfc
๐ด๐ด more bad football and shooting from distance because we can't break anyone down, even Tottenham! So disappointing to still be seeing this 30 games in. #lfc
Slot just doesn't seem to learn this, it's been his major floor this season. Where is Curtis?!
I fully expect us to lose this game with that 11. That Sunderland team is perfectly set up to beat us and it's an evening game at home. Our midfield looks extremely soft and I've got very little confidence in either of the full backs! #lfc
I can't see how Slot manages to do that now, based on how his attempts to improve us have gone. I've reverted back to pessimism after a few positives around the Burnley and Marseille games. In fairness, I'd have said the same thing in the COVID season though. No idea how we scraped top 4 then!
That was absolutely shocking stuff from us. We are there for the taking and Pep will be annoyed they're not ahead. Worst LFC side he's faced at anfield? #lfc
This is absolutely grim stuff. #lfc
I assume it's Szob at right back and Wirtz as a 10. If so I expect our midfield to struggle today even with no Joelinton and Guimareas, although that should certainly even the playing field a bit! #lfc
Pray it's not the same hamstring! Agreed it looked like groin
Not only is it a regression from the recent attacking improvements but it's also a return to the defensive fragility and set piece embarrassments. It couldn't really be much worse!
2 steps forward the last few games, 2 steps back tonight. And with that goes probably the last chance of Slot turning this around in my opinion. Maybe he can cling onto Europe for a bit longer but this is a huge blow for Slot. Grim. #lfc
Probably 3 of the top 5 performances of the season have been in the last 4 games. This feels like it *could* now be a genuine turning point in terms of confidence. Still think there is work to do on finishing chances but we have solidified and now showing signs of a better attack. #lfc
That's criminal from Wirtz. Very frustrating performance from him in the final third so far.. hit that first time!!! #lfc
I'm glad my optimism at the final whistle which seemed to go against the grain was backed up by the stats! Huge game tonight to see if we can repeat the tactics/attacking movements and prove Slot has been coaching the team..
This game today, for 80% of it at least, was night and day from this unbeaten run we have been on. If we'd have won this 2-1 with a flukey winner in the 97th minute it would be hailed at the best performance of the season!
Which incidentally I don't have that much confidence in us doing.. but, if we do, we are going to start getting quite a few more wins
We've been so so bad this season though. And whilst we've been more solid defensively, we've been woeful overall against weaker opposition during this run. This looked like a genuine turning point in terms of attacking play today. Just need to play the same for the next 3 matches or so...
Yeh but we've been SO bad. The process was so much better today. You can tell we've worked hard on getting better at creating chances. Slot has to keep the players heads up now so they play like that again in the next few. That's his big test..
Best performance of the season arguably that today. Think this is the first sign of us beginning to link up front although you wouldn't think it seeing everyone's take on here! Reality is we need to play like that for the next few though, otherwise it will count for very little
There have been boos. I was at the Leeds game the other week and there were a few. The difference in performance today was night and day though. This was more like it. If we play like we did today the next 3 matches we will probably win all 3.
We should have had a few more goals in the first 20 of the second half too tbf. It was poor once we conceded. Reality is, it might be our best performance of the season Vs a team worse than us. That does say a lot!
Probably our best performance of the season against a team worse than us. Still, not winning at home against arguably the worst team in the league is really poor. That should have been a routine win and confidence back, anfield crowd back behind the players. But it's not. #lfc
Yep. Arsenal before that next!
If they play like this every week it won't be long before they're ahead of us.. big if though. To be fair they've been better than we've looked 99% of the season today..
