I've been thinking a lot about how Liverpool responded so poorly to a setback today. So I've rattled off a few thoughts (and stats, naturally) to try to put it all into context.

As much as for myself as for you, to be honest. It's a free read:

My timeline is filled with people talking about City beating Liverpool, which is odd because I’m pretty fukn certain there’s no football on this weekend 🤷🏼‍♂️

Today’s FA Cup quarter finals were brutal on the lesser clubs like Port Vale and Liverpool

St. Agnes, Ullet Rd, Liverpool by J.L. Pearson 1883-5

St. Agnes vicarage, Buckingham Avenue, Liverpool by R. Norman Shaw 1885-87

Got up an hour ago and checked the score.

It’s taken me this long to decide if it’s even worth posting about.

It’s not.

I’m not a Liverpool fan obvs but this seems a tad tone deaf from Szoboszlai. Your team just got pumped lad. The fans can react how they want once the game is over

Real Madrid are using Trent as a touchline-hugging winger in possession and all I'm saying is Liverpool should maybe give him a call

Pissed off pingu

Me right now 🤣 #lfc

Erling Haaland is celebrating #ManCity’s 4-0 win vs Liverpool with his hat-trick match ball and a Greggs. 😋

When you consider this period also contained Mohamed Salah announcing he was leaving the club, and the club announcing ticket prices are going up, it has to be a strong contender for one of the worst months in Liverpool’s history.

"Well I don't think we played too bad. After all, Klopp lost here 5-0..." #LFC

I can’t get rid of the LFC 4-0 banner at the top of my phone and it’s pissing me off 🤣 #lfc #mciliv

Not normally one to advocate a Liverpool manager losing their job.

But I've seen enough, Slot has to go... #LFC

I’ve never felt more like singing the blues, when Everton don’t play and Liverpool lose, oh Everton, you got me singing the blues.

Right the sun's still out. Time to go outside and do some important pottering about! Have a great rest of the day everyone! UTFR!!! #lfc

Right I've calmed down now lol
This is not the liverpool way 😐
We look deflated no spark .. players not even trying .. missed opportunities dead on there feet
Yes I turned off it hurts to much to watch .. I will always support the reds but ill be glad when this campaign is over 😢

There's nothing else to say now that hasn't been said since Nov and reiterated in Jan. Slow death; by a thousand cuts. When you have people who believe that they're too smart to get things wrong, sunk cost fallacy. All the signs were there that it wasn't getting any better unless you're stupid #LFC

“I’ve never seen a Liverpool team with such little confidence. It’s up to the manager to inspire the team. But the team looks devoid of any confidence. The manager need to inspire. But we’re not seeing that at all.”

Erling Haaland vs Liverpool:

3 Goals
16 Touches
6 Accurate Passes
75% Pass Accuracy
100% Shot Accuracy
3 Shots On Target
3 Touches In Opposition Box
2 Ground Duels Won
1 Recovery
1 Was Fouled
1 Aerial Duel Won
1 Headed Clearance
1 Successful Dribble
1 Pass Into Final Third

I didn't understand how the Man City and PSG games were big for Slot because those two are way ahead of Liverpool right now, so surely results against Wolves, Spurs, Burnley and - coming up - Everton meant more. But this turned into a humiliation and will likely damage him.
