And nor should they. When you spend £450m, you need to win or at least look like you’ve got a plan for how to use your new signings.

Fairly efficient but predictable, I guess. Hence why he’s underrated.

It’s for Slot to provide the solution. So far, there isn’t one. 🤷🏻‍♂️

That’s the closest we’ve come to finding an interim solution. More signings will be needed in the longer term.

Yes, we were. A common theme away from home. It’s like Slot’s trying to be too conservative on the road.

Josh Williams is always worth listening to when it comes to Liverpool.

No, not necessarily. On paper, they’re top class individuals, but it’s not working in reality atm. Kerkez is a full back that is at his best high and wide, rather than sitting in as he’s being asked to, Wirtz can’t play in the 10 with two of our current crop of midfielders behind him etc.

Wirtz’s pressing numbers in recent seasons are elite. Needs to improve them at Liverpool though.

Yes - getting the ball to the players than can hurt teams has been a big problem this season.

No. It sounds mad to say it, considering we spent £450m in the summer, but they’re going to need to spend more to rebalance the squad.

It doesn’t help - as Guehi would help with ball progression - but Liverpool have deeper issues than just ball progression from defence.

There isn’t a solution with the current crop of players. It’s full of square pegs. They’ve bought a load of top class individuals without, seemingly, a plan for how they play together.

This is worth a watch… youtu.be/crQQtbQwLLw?...

I struggle to see where Slot goes from here.

Totally agree. Too much individual quality and money spent to have many excuses too. Needs to find the right balance. For all the money spent, we could have done with an Adam Wharton type to progress the ball from deep.

As would I. Yet somehow Kerkez keeps getting a game and looks utterly atrocious.
