KetteringMag Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 If your manager is saying we could be fighting relegation in the same season your CEO is saying you want to win everything by 2030 it’s probably a sure sign that the relationship is over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 2 hours ago, Chicken Dancer said: I take your point but I still don’t think Liverpool would appoint Eddie Howe. I guess we won’t have too long to find out, given Slot is probably on borrowed time (ish). Personally I think Liverpool would want a manager who puts more emphasis on playing with the ball rather than intense work rate off it. Liverpool have always been a hard working side for sure, but they put the emphasis on skill and patterns of play. I think Howe is too focused on intensity and speed, and that's why signings like Elanga have been such a flop. Not enough consideration given to technical excellence and too much on physical ability.

dcmk Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 1 hour ago, Andy said: To be fair, we had the option to play a better front three. Certainly a more expensive front three. The decision to put out an almost entirely toothless left hand side contributed massively to our lack of goal threat. I don't think Eddie Howe is the type of person to go into a match with a deliberately weaker team than possible. I'm sure he selected that particular 11, based upon his own belief that it gives us the best chance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I wouldn’t compare myself to a person who is paid millions to be accountable for those decisions - it’s almost as if the standards I’d expect in my working practice aren’t the same as those of a PL football manager. Yea, I would consider it if it were ME and not a team of people who made the decision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) For me it’s clear he’s losing the dressing room, Woltemade, Gordon, Livramento, Tonali, Hall look like they have been lost. Arguably Barnes who’s disappeared form wise too. Many other players know they are off in the summer. Problem is the remaining players fighting for him are the ones we should’ve moving on such as Murphy, Willock, Burn etc. Edited April 27 by Jesse Pinkman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonali runs miles every game, Hall was just left out for one game. Gordon aye, and maybe Tino, they’re looking for the exit.

La Parka Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I've heard a fair few comments on football podcasts indicating he will be gone in the summer. I know he's a twat but the Newcastle "fan" on the ramble is on example. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hall was hooked at half time and then dropped the next game with only a few games remaining. You don’t tend to treat your best players like that unless something is going on behind the scene. Imagine if he did that to Gordon or Bruno. Tonali runs but he doesnt do much else. Personally think he’s not that arsed anymore. Barnes could just be form to be fair but he’s been shockingly bad for a while. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's hooked Tonali and Thiaw at half time this season, amongst others, it’s nothing new, you’re just speculating to push your anti-Eddie agenda, which is becoming increasingly obvious and, frankly, a bit tiresome with your every post.

Ok maybe you should source your facts with a bit more rigour as Tonali’s wife went into labour so he was subbed at half time so he could make the birth. Unless you’re referring to a different game?
