Naah, you spent a lot of money. Your income is not great, so it will cause problems in 1-2 years. You do know how PSR works?

I agree. Bin all the Swedes and Norwegians.

They will be in serious PSR problems next year anyway. Most likely will sell, it all depends who they can sign to cover.

I still don't know how he cannot even get the basics right. Knock the ball past and cross, surely he can do that?

His style of play is not suited to this 4-5-1 at all. If we want to use him properly, we either A) need to have more of the ball B) have to press higher up. He is totally useless if he is pressing 2 CBs all alone and our wingers are 75 metres from opponent's goal.

I think defensively everything worked fine. Mackems didnt create a single chance before the OG.

He has been ran to the ground because of Wissa's injury. 90 minutes every game and has to do a lot of pressing. Needs a rest I would say. Poor game today.

I said when we were signing him, that he is just a runner and does not have enough technical ability. People were saying he is good and two footed and all that. He can improve, but he is just as expected. A sprinter who has very low football IQ. And we paid 55 million for this.

He was awful. Didn't challenge the fullback at all.

I mean, hard to even say who is man of the match. Such a shit game

What a horrible game of football. Honestly two very poor sides.

Murphy has to start. Joelinton might be out but he would have started this otherwise.

I think our play will definitely get better now that Wissa is fit. He is a threat in behind that Woltemade is not, so we can actually go and counter. Now we just sit in 4-5-1 and hope for the best.

Was good today like. Doesn't strike me with confidence though.

We are too tired. It was a matter of time.

Now you can see when they press, we have no way of getting out from the back by passing..

They are playing past our press very easily. And technical players who can receive in tight spaces. Our flat midfield may work against Brentford or Nottingham, but in UCL it is getting hammered again.

We are so easily undone here.

Should be red I guess. Again we are getting played through the middle too easily. One pass gets past the whole midfield.

That is too weak from Tonali

Looks like 4-4-2 diamond.

It's comical.

Salah and Gakpo are both goal scoring wingers. Gakpo especially couldn't see any easy pass, just cuts inside. Murphy's first idea when he gets the ball with some space is to look where the striker is. And to add to that, Liverpool are attacking sooooo slowly. Isak is totally useless in that system.

Callum Wilson with more G+A now than Isak?

Van Gaal wasn’t very good with words, so to speak. Even in an interview when doing Litmanen’s documentary, a most important player of his Ajax team, he said something like his injuries were mentality issue or something.
