  1. I don't think Arsenal would be thinking about him if he was technically crap. People didn't think Rice was technically up to it at that level when they signed him and look at him now. Tonali has been poor this season with the ball but it wasn't so much of an issue last season, which speaks to a wider issue with the side imo.
  2. Think you can pretty much guarantee - given his general ideology - that Sir Jimmy will be giving out contracts that are heavily incentivised

    NUFC Transfer Rumours

    Could be a huge rebuild in the summer maybe. Especially if Tino and Tonali go, we must surely be in a good position to spend hundreds of billions.
  4. if we’re being honest
  5. I’ll be a bit confused if he goes there and is immediately available to play, like.
  6. it’s not in Manchester tbf
  7. it’s awful . The most frustrating it could possibly be. The most celebratory moment I’ve had was ratcunt breaking his leg
  8. I’m surprised you think we played well throughout, mind. I don’t think we did much right after 35 minutes at all.
  9. 2 posts, both pro liverpool, sus
  10. yeah, for all our dominance in the first 30 we didn’t actually create much. Had loads of corners but they were poor, which is a shame because they’ve been much better the last month or so.
  11. I don’t really understand what’s changed because it used to be a big strength of ours. We could go ahead and kill games off either by being clinical or seeing out a clean sheet. I suppose the obvious one is the lack of a top level striker. Honestly what I’d give for a 22-23 Calum Wilson atm… This season a lot of players just shit the bed. I said it last night but I think we miss players like Schar and Joelinton who but their bodies on the line and lead the rest of the team with that kind of never say die mentality. Having Ramsey/Willock instead of Bruno also didn’t help in that regard. I don’t know. Maybe some of the players are a bit too comfortable and a refresh is needed.

    Nick Woltemade

    I hate seeing him come off the bench, mind. He never impacts a game positively at all and it pretty much always marks our surrendering of the match. Play him from the start or not at all. Personally I think he should just be starting as many games as possible atm. Get him a goal and some confidence back.
  13. Konate was their best player, like. Intercepted pretty much everything and nullified our pace threat in the second half.
  14. We were great for the first 30 minutes, which is why I find it hard to lay any of the blame with the manager tbh. The approach to the game was spot on. They hit us with two sucker punches, and unfortunately I think you can lay both at Trippier’s feet. The players just folded after that. We are paying the price for not signing a versatile full back in the summer big time.
  15. pointless comparing previous results and performances at Anfield imo. I feel like maybe one of the reasons we never win there is because we’re obsessed with nonsense like that.
  16. I’ve just tallied and it’s 9, not 6. Not great like, but we all knew that. Was glorious looking through 22-23 results tbh, we only lost 5 games all season .
  17. him playing every minute of every game is not great. I’m slightly baffled why Miley has been getting so much rest recently when Trippier is playing way too much and Tonali is playing every minute.
  18. it’s been 4 years and we still aren’t thrashing everyone waahh waaah waaah is just about the funniest take I’ve seen on here like, howling

    Jacob Ramsey

    I really like him as a player but tactically it doesn’t look like he knows how to play in a 3 at all yet really. When he gets the ball it’s good but he went missing in and out of possession after the equaliser.
  20. I think you can lay the subs onwards on Eddie but that’s about it. Nothing wrong with the approach at all, which worked very well until we scored. The players just absolutely lose their minds once they go in front this season for some reason. I think that’s why it’s been so frustrating this season - you can see what we’re supposed to be doing most of the time and then the players just crumble under pressure. We really miss Schar and Joelinton imo. These are the guys with the mentality we need.
  21. Burn’s been poor tonight. Botman has to come back in next game.
  22. we have been disgusting since we scored really
  23. feel like we’ve aimed everything from 30 minutes onwards at Konate’s head
  24. can even slide tackle Woltemade from behind and it’s not a foul
