Fuck it, Darwin has to start from now on and try to rebuild his confidence, his last chance basically

This false 9 alternative with Diaz lacks cutting edge half the time, an incredible display of wastefulness yet again

Liverpool have been worked out. Will need a big goal here Virgil?

Aged well

Tough crowd.

They have been worked out but most teams won't be good enough to make them pay. It will be interesting in the later stages of the champions league against the more dynamic teams. I am not sure they will fare too well. But more than happy to be proved wrong. They got the big goal. Normally in a title winning season the centre back gets a crucial goal. It was set up for that.

Doesn't look like they will need a points buffer for the rest of the league though. Is he good enough to start? would be a big call. Super sub role I would think as Slot needs to bed in some sort of cutting edge from elsewhere if Salah is not scoring. So looking forward to Champs league.

Watching the highlights, LFC were lucky. Brentford were really aggressive. Konate was superb for LFC.TAA? Same as ever. Defensively 2 out 10. Attacking? TAA is a 10.

Meh.

Would still have Roberto Carlos if he was 0/10 defensively

He's probably finished under Slot either way, he's overly emotional and loses confidence too easily. The complete opposite of what you want in a composed finisher, under a ruthless coach with a controlling playstyle. But you could see why Klopp would want a player like that to suit his emotional football built around transitions.

All the issues I raised and listed several weeks ago remain unresolved and they've allowed them to worsen, so the mood around the club is not as great as it should be considering the standings.

An average player with striker's instincts would suffice for Slot against these low blocks, but unfortunately this clashes with the club's penny-pinching policy! They're far too busy lowballing their stars with contract offers.

It's about the nett gain isn't it? Carlos was brilliant. TAA can drop a pass to create a goal. But it's now evident he can't defend. What amazes me is that he hasn't improved. I played sport for 30 years and you learn from every game. TAA is so intelligent with his forward passing it baffles me why he is so dumb at defending. It's like his brain switches on for attack and off for defence. Sorry this subject annoys me.... if he sorted out his defending then he would definitely be off to Madrid.

Agreed. Darwin didn't have a good game at all IMO. The only impressive thing I remember him doing was the way he took the second goal, but you would have expected any decent striker to score. He wasted several chances by shooting high into the crowd from distance, and should have had 2 or even 3 yellow cards.

You're like a broken record player

Meanwhile the leftback position is by far the biggest weakness in that team

Those few instances sum him up entirely, it's why I called him an idiot here sometimes, even though it's usually linked to his decision-making when finishing.

He JUST got back from a suspension last match (where he could've scored the winner too) and what does he do? Takes off his shirt soon as he scores and goes flying into tackles afterwards

Driven entirely by emotion, must be an absolute nightmare to manage.

Unless Everton implode I reckon Big Ange could be on his way to the Job Centre later.........

My thoughts exactly.
But look at Everton now. Transformed in the blink of an eye. The players have a great responsibiity and Spurs seem to flip from brilliant to abject.
