We're going to get taken over by Chelsea at this rate let alone Liverpool.

Slot is going to do in one season what Arteta can't manage in 5 seasons.....literally playing Klopp ball.

Klopp retired and his old team and set up is still haunting the league.

Dropped points this side is missing two things
A killer striker
And an absolute c*** that demands success, that person can be a manager or player but we don't have one

We need a new CF and a LW that can compete with Saka's level.

Ode didn't have a shot today, Kai was never in the game but also zero service.

Think Saliba needs to start coaching players on how to head a ball.

Havertz zero service? I can remember at least 3 occasions when Saka played an inviting ball to the near post only but to see Havertz flat-footed, not attacking it. You're not going to score many goals from low crosses by remaining stationary between the CBs.

Thats because Fulham defended in 2 rows of 4. They are well drilled by Silva.

Yup, Havertz was dreadful today !!

And then we brought on Jesus who was even more pointless!!

Football should be straightforward.

If possession footie doesn't work, play more direct. A more direct game needs a more traditional CF and/or it needs players that are direct. Direct play suits Martinelli, possession football does not. Direct play would suit Nwaneri whose first thought is attack, but he gets eediot minutes !!

Arteta is a f***ing idiot.

Ode needs to learn to run with the ball and play off others for the attacking space, Nwaneri would have been better in that game
