RAWK Goes Into Lockdown 25/26 Shieldless Edition - £500m down the drain, the champions have dropped points again!

[BaguetteBoy]

Fester is having an absolute meltdown

 

[V.O.]

It's a shame RAWK is members only, I was looking forward to reading what their fans are saying about their current form and Slot

To be fair, there might not be much to see as they've probably locked every single thread other than the Gakpo one.

Fester is having an absolute meltdown

What is funny is that he doesn't bring up that Estevao is only 18 and Slot is using him as an example of players other teams can bring on, yet he is left with teenagers.

They were fecking awful, love it

 

[Blood Mage]

Fester lost it on twitter over the disallowed goal

 

[BaguetteBoy]

Give it to me ……

 

[ItDoesntEvenMata]

Slot done the Ten Hag thing. Had a decent first season (I’m calling it decent because he inherited a top squad from Klopp), had success in the first season and then comes into the second season with a bluster and underestimation of the league

 

[BaguetteBoy]

 

[Fr. Todd Unctious]

The Refs bailed them out in their first five games and have tried to help them in many others. The amount of times they had a massive amount of injury time when they've either been level or a goal behind going into the 90min

Yip. 17 fecking minutes of extra time in our game when they were losing at Anfield.

Seventeen.

Minutes.

Reddit/Liverpool

Well, I think any lingering hope of challenging for the title is surely over now. Regroup after international break and hopefully we can go hard in Champions League and FA cup and salvage something from the season.

right… im calling in sick in the morning. literally

If only we kept Lucho…

When we had a bad season with Klopp after winning the league we were still top at Christmas. And injuries tore our season apart. Slot has no excuse

Salah is unwilling to pass when others are wide open is annoying.

Mane has had enough, now Wirtz just turns his back.

Compare this attack to Mane Firmino Salah…

Must be in Salahs contract that he stays on the pitch no matter what.

I'm done with this team....... What a waste of money....... No strategy whatsoever.

Slot has lost me.

Slot has killed all the passion and fighting spirit in this team. Sorry but this Liverpool is a pain to watch. We won the league last season but let’s not pretend we’ve played exciting football. This “Dutch total football” thing is BS.

Forget the title race, how optimistic is everyone on whether we finish third or even in CL places? We have lost 40% of the games since our loss to PSG last season. Title win papered over the cracks then but it can't now. We have a favourable set of fixtures post international break, if he can't get us on a winning streak AND actually performing again, it would look really really dark.

Fire Michael Edwards

Can't beat 13 against 11. Should have been 1-1, would have probably ended that way. That oil money goes a long way.

Even when we were losing games in the build up to Champions League win and league title, the team always fought. What the feck did I just watch? This isn't a team. It is a loose collection of highly paid athletes. That is 100% on Slot. He has to change now or move on.

Slot will go. It’s just a matter of when.

City humiliated us there today- it was like a lower division side playing city at times. Embarrassed

All the Slot apologists came out guns blazing in the last week. He served them humble pie

Below untied in the table Jesus wept

Offload that oaf Konate in January. It's like I'm watching Sakho in the present. Man's checked out this season. It's infuriating to watch.

You are all scapegoating Salah for not converting half chances and suffering in a system that has no identity. You’re all entitled, expecting him to Messi his way to magic like he’s done for 8 years to paper over the cracks of a poor manager, a shit system and the other players not being on it either. That’s the truth of it, and it’s pathetic.

...

Grav was shit

He’s our most overrated player by some distance. Outside of ball carrying I dont see a single thing he’s elite at. And even then his turns have been figured out since January last year. He’s a complete passenger defensively at times and his passing range is very limited

He does not even bother run to cover the midfielder runners and recover position.

...

I see the stat of Wirtz runnning the most every game, but he runs like a headless chicken, he doesn’t try to block or win the ball, he is just there. He can't seem to shield too. This is a big concern in the PL, you need go on and fight duels, which he seem incapable of doing

He was back to looking like a 12 year old boy again tonight. Infuriating.

Lightweight nothing player

Dont dare say anything about wirtz in here... You'll be downvoted to oblivion. 0 G/A is fecking atrocious for his price tag.

...

Okaaaay...

next are Forest, PSV, West Ham(A), Sunderland, Leeds(A) ️

Forest new manager bounce, West Ham new manager bounce, Sunderland in Leicester 2015/16 mode potential 3 dropped points/defeats right there.

...

Kerkez does not belong to premier league.

he was the best Premier League left back last season

Or maybe slot has no idea how to play him

...

send salah to AFCON early because wtf is that

won 3 of our last 10 games in all comps

1 of our last 6 in prem

The moment that Virgil's goal was disallowed was when we lost the game. You could see the players lost hope. Awful body language even exiting the changing room after the break. Might be something happening behind closed doors, some conflicts, plenty of new faces, new stars vs the old. Hard to tell. We're no longer a team and it shows.

Can’t wait for Slots interview, starting to piss me off like Rodgers did. Needs to start getting the hard questions and criticism from the media, it’s not funny that we lose every week.

“We were unlucky” - you were shit mate too

Indeed, I hope that he doesn’t babble on about the officiating decisions (yes they were poor, but not as poor as our performance today).

Top 4 fight it is. 8 defeats in our last 17 league games

...

No long throws or long ball and Insha Allah. How did we lose?

We got outworked off the ball. Midfield couldn't stamp their authority. Doku had a worldy. Couldn't stop or contain him. Dogshit defending. List's endless brother. Gonna be a long two weeks now...

...

Despite the rimming by GNev on comms, City were quite mediocre. Created very little.

I do think it ends our title hopes but Slot didn't get it wrong today. Bad luck, low energy and a Konate disasterclass makes it a very difficult situation.

Ignore outside noise and we go again after the break.

MO SALAH MO SALAH... jogging down the wing

Madrid and Villa played into our hands. Today was back to reality

Now that Slot can't speak about the opposition playing long balls against us, is he going to speak about the elephant in the room, i.e., how teams are exploring the space to attack on our right side? And I think Bradley was one of our best players, so I hoppe you understand what I'm talking about...

...

Threw away the league cup for this shit

what? 2 wins and 1 PL loss?

huge win vs Real.. youre delusional mate

You are right, its way too delusional to think we shouldnt lose 5 of our 11games in the league this season especially by getting absolutely shat on by the oil feckers, sorry man

...

Damn!

Well, on to the next loss I guess

YAWN​

You never win again?

2 statements that never make any sense and don’t mean anything

“Games gone”

“I’m done”

Games gone is usually the shortened version of ‘games gone soft’…..which of course makes no sense in this context

 

[Pughnichi]

Whilst funny, I have some sympathy here. When he heads it, he’s not in the eye line.

Quite similar to De Ligt recently who was offside, not in the eye line (just) and we got the goal

He’s not wrong. The game is a mess

But…it’s Liverpool so I’m over it

 

[Andy_Cole]

Games gone is usually the shortened version of ‘games gone soft’…..which of course makes no sense in this context

I don’t think so. It’s more - it’s gone from the game it used to be. What we grew up with.

 

[HankHill]

Seeing City fans attempting to summon up something resembling passion is an odd thing to experience.

At least the Liverpool fans are genuine.

Having said that, I'm glad they were once again embarrassed.

 

[Dave Smith]

My Dipper mate is in full melt down with his tin foil hat on after the disallowed goal. Drinking in the tears, drinking them in. Will be back for the RAWK tears tomorrow.

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

This season should've been about transitioning away from Salah as our main threat and we continue to overplay and try and play through him like he's the man he was 5 years ago. Inept management.

Imagine having Florian fecking wirtz and Alexander fecking Isak in your team yet the manager demands the team runs all attack through Cody Gakpo and a declining Mo

...

Diabolical result. I guess I’m one of the few who thought the performance wasn’t that poor. Doku really cooked us thought.

If that goal hadn’t been so ridiculously ruled out, things might have been different, but oh well, it is what it is.

No, I agree. We were in that game, despite Gary Neville’s wanking himself off talking about how our performance was the worst of all time.

...

We’ve lost 5 out of 11.

That’s unacceptable.

It’s not even just the losses that’s the issue we’ve deserved to lose all of those and that’s what’s more worrying the performances are dire

No that is our standards appearantly.

Because we are never allowed to criticise a manager who spends 400m and makes us look worse

...

Let's be honest. If anyone spends 450m and gets outplayed weekly in the league and currently stands at one league win in two months, what possible excuse could there be?

We just have to give him the season though...that's what this sub keeps telling me.

Made the wrong spending choices?

Let's not forget that United and Chelsea have burned over a billion on transfers with no apparent benefit.

We've known for a while that it's going to be a stuggle this season. I think everyone should be patient, avoid listening to the likes of Carra and all the pundits. City are better than us now, we move on.

Comparisons to United’s and Chelsea’s recent histories. Yeah he’s not gonna last the season

The apparent benefit is they've spent that and are now ahead of us in the table. Imagine that 2 years ago.

...

Kerkez, Wirtz just not working at all. A bit early now but when are they considered busts?

Is it not obvious when we look miles better each time they don’t play

...

Being 100% serious, and this is just one issue out of many; spending 100m on Wirtz is basically indefensible at this point. It should get Hughes in serious trouble.

He's not making us a better team stylistically and looks so completely inoffensive. I can't picture more than 3 shots he's had at goal all season. It's not a fit at all.

You’re not wrong tbh. I don’t think Wirtz has been terrible and he isn’t close to our biggest problem but as it stands spending £100m on him seems to have been unnecessary. If you replaced Wirtz with Elliot I don’t think we’d have much difference in results.

God we are so fecking fickle. Would bet my house you were part of the masses celebrating his signing as a massive statement and coup for us.

don't know, why don't you go through my post history to find out if you're that arsed, pal?

I ain't, I just think it's incredibly revisionist and cynical to suggest this was some sort of obvious or egregious dereliction of duty by Huges and the recruitment staff to bring in one of the most talented midfielders in the world. It's not taking off several weeks in, but we signed this kid for multiple years.

...

2/3 victories against Villa, RM and City isn’t all bad in isolation. Just pray this isn’t the start of another losing streak. Games should be more favourable post international break.

We have Forest next with Dyche in charge I am not sure that is more favourable.

...

Slot has established a coward mentality in players. Players play like they are afraid of making mistakes. I have never seen us scared of playing against any team before. Now, even before the whistle starts, we play like an inferior team. We don't attack, we don't press, and we don't defend with vigor. There is no intensity in our matches. We have lost our identity under Slot.

This should be the top comment. I am sensing this more and more as our identity that was shaped under Klopp as ‘Mentality Monsters’ has just withered away and we have no fight or spirit when we concede. We are fragile and vulnerable and the fear f making mistakes invariably results in playing too cautiously which results in us making more mistakes. Our coaching culture has erased our identity of ‘Mentality Monsters’ to ‘Mentality Mice’!

...

Tragic. Genuinely that’s the league wrapped up. Now I’m just praying Sunderland have a miracle and win the lot

We've won every game we've scored first in but lost all but one that we've conceded first in. We are a very soft team

7/10 losses in all comps. Someone save me from this nightmare. I cant control my self

At times under Klopp the team was so oiled the press was just fecking electric to watch and you knew you were watching something incredible, something special.

This was fecking disgusting. Slot is finished. FINISHED. Get him in the penitentiary. It’s over. We’re done. Played with our tail between our legs. FINISHED.

Nothing sickens me more than to see pep lijnders on the other side sharing all of our weaknesses.

As close to relegation as we are to arsenal

Slot interview just now (R5) he's blaming the officiating for the loss. This is problematic.

Gary Neville should not be commentating on Liverpool games.

Getting beat 3-0 by Pep’s City is not the ultimate mark of shame that Gary fecking Neville made it out to be all day.

Man and I was laughing at first but it’s not funny anymore

 

[stevoc]

Only the bottom 6 have lost more games than Liverpool this season. That'll be the end of any hopes they had of a title challenge this season then. Right on cue...

Fester went on about normality and sanity returning when they went back above us last week. We went back above them today without having to kick a ball

You never win again is class

 

[reddev3]

The rule isn't "not impeding the goalkeeper" it's "not interfering with play" if you have to duck out of the way of the ball to stop it hitting you then you're interfering with play.

 

[OldSchoolManc]

I don’t think Liverpool fans can physically cry more
