The best argument has been the same for some time. This is it:
Our players are not capable of consistently doing anything more than challenging for 4th/5th. Many of them, even the most celebrated, need to go in order for us to progress. If a...
Well, we need a faster back line to push up and compress the midfield space - our CBs are too slow to play high
But yes, a younger, more athletic CDM would defo help
CL was already gone so the league is not that important so long as we stay 6th or 7th and get Europa league
Would like to see us give some minutes to Mount, Amad, etc. I want to see them get to bed in with some of the players who will be here...
Defensively, their formation is already showing they know how to beat us.
They aren't pressing us high so transition opportunities are going to be limited.
They know we can't play through a low block.
Lots of people at this point don't care what the issue is - fault will be found and it will be attributed to ETH
Martinez now has another injury? Shouldn't have played. Even though when we saw him on the bench, of course we'd have hoped he'd get...
Mount and Amad for Bruno and Rashy, please
Poor performances should have consequences. Desperate to see us try something else with a few players more comfortable in possession
CL is gone, we can claim it’s rest for Liverpool, so what’s the harm?
Agree with most of that
I'd also say that at some level, it's a simple return on investment question
We have by far the highest net spend in the PL over that period and yet we have radically underperformed our peers
For example, at the end of...
Hear you. The degradation of Eriksen and Casemiro is unfortunate. Those two + Bruno were undefeated for a long spell last season when starting together. But even last season, we only scored 58 goals in the league - it was a poor attacking return...
We've scored fewer goals than Luton and they're in the relegation zone. We are in 6th on the back of our defense.
We rank 14th place for GF. We rank 4th in GA. Bottom-half attack - let it sink in.
The thought that you might actually believe what you're saying is wild. That front 3, as a group, is bottom-half caliber - full stop
Amad is completely unproven/unknown at the top level
Garnacho has a total of 8 league goals to his name and...
Unquestionably would rather see Mount at the 10. Bruno week after week puts in 4-5/10 performances (even when we win), must be dropped, and yet he’s undroppable. Make it make sense
