I agree with what Josh said about Chiesa, i don't think he's over the hill as he's just turnt 27 recently, I believe.

All the confidence in the squad depth goes out the window the minute grav gets injured god forbid. He is our system.

Heavily disagree. While Grav has been super important for us, who do you think is responsible for this other then Grav? Of course it’s Slot.

Before gravenberch played there we had “no six”. Put some respect on slots name, what tells you he can’t one of the other midfielders to cover there? It doesn’t need to be like for like but we can absolutely cover that area, we’ll be fine
How do u know that? Are u hoping for that so that u can say "WE NEED NEW PLAYERS!!!" and FSGOUT!!!! What a joke. Yous just want new players like little kids want new toys. Every season u people say the same sht even when we sign multiple players. No difference whatsoever. Sign player X, Y, Z bla bla bla, we aren't spending enough bla bla bla. It's INSANE!!
For me Liverpool's best front 3 is Salah Nunez Diaz. There is no coincidence this was the starting line up when we were blowing teams away in the start of the season. The perfect mix of chance creation, work rate and finishing.
Such a good point about Hughes having it easier at Liverpool. Idk if it’s him or fsg being tight but they’re doing an awful job managing this squad right now. Was obviously to everybody in the summer left back was a position to be upgraded in the summer and we’ve paid the consequences of the inactivity. The Salah Trent and vvd situation was bad enough, now they’re doing exactly the same thing with Konate and no doubt this time next year we’ll be debating whether he resigns or not
As of today Open play goals stats: 1. Jota played 960 mins & 8 gls. 1 every 120 min Gakpo played 1660 mins & 12 gls. 1 every 138 min 3. Diaz played 1846 mins & 12 gls. 1 every 153 min 4. Salah played 2600 mins & 16 gls. 1 every 162 min 5. Nunez played 1493 mins & 6 gls. 1 every 248 min.
@@floreatTHYpica Danns has played 181 minutes & has 2 goals. A goal every 90 minutes. The reason why I haven't included Danns is the sample size. If he gets to 500 minutes...
@@dadanifit if you include assists salah would be top. In my opinion assists are padding. Also penalties pad records if only one forward is ever taking them
The difference between the holes in our squad and the holes in other team's squads is that we can win a title with our holes whilst no one else can. We can lose Alisson, Trent, Konate, Robertson, Mac Allister, Szoboszlai, Jota, Diaz, Nunez, Gakpo and still be fine. It's if we lose Van Dijk and only him when I'll be worried. I think we can cover for Gravenberch & Salah but not Van Dijk.
Disagree , we can’t afford to miss Konate or Gravenberch in my opinion . Instead of addressing that, we are muddling through and touching wood to quote men in the video. Imagine going that route instead of just dealing with the issues
@@user-kd8ge3kp2k I don't know how you can disagree when we've already been without Konate this season for an extended period and we're top of the league.
@ we had a fit Gomez and also as well as Gomez played, look at how much our goals conceded went up in the period. Also , it’s relevant who the games are against when someone is out. Quansah was good against Lille but terrible in every other game he has played this season. You can’t say you’d be comfortable seeing him and Trent defend right side against certain sides. Also call me crazy but I’d like to win champions league too and that right side is not winning it
Depends on glass half full... apparently we have a left back issue, trent can't defend, no proper DM, nunez can't score, various players injury prone etc etc Then we have the best defender vvd, best 2 goal keepers, best right winger, best left side Cody and Diaz and no one like treat and the depth of our squad with youngsters like Bradley, dans, rio, etc etc 😂 Be positive enjoy the ride.
To me, a backup for Gravenberch is far more important than a new LB. I'd argue a left sided CB is also more important than improving LB. All of this goes out the window if Trent, VVD, and Salah all leave because they will need replacing first before we consider another LB.
@@gylduran9217 no good left sided CB will come until Virgil decides to leave or starts to fade. He plays every game. Gomez covers it now. It’s perfect.
No it was to do with the hate he was getting online, something to do with the salah v hazard debate. Jones was asked they question, not sure what he said cos havent watched, rivals twisting it no doubt
He said Hazard was the better player but he’d rather have Salah due to his numbers. Also Salah said last night “Finally he gave a good pass” 🤣. Just banter 💪🏻
Requiring trust in Richard Hughes at this moment is not a good place to be. He hasn’t given us anything to stand on. As a fan I’m uneasy because I can’t see the plan but am forced to assume one exists ffs.
If you don't think there's a plan in place then you don't know how these things work. Weird how finally having Salah backup and planning for the future without Alisson is just nothing to you people. Or the fact that this is currently the best squad in the world and people still complain just because it isn't perfect yet.
@ let me try to cover all the points in your brilliant reply. I hope and assume there’s a plan but I can’t tell what it is yet. Chiesa has played 180 minutes this season, not exactly a Salah backup yet. We now have four quality goal keepers and the majority of fans are sad to see Kellerher sold (separate point but still). All I’ve heard from Hughes is talk about “opportunistic signings” which Chiesa clearly is and many fans aren’t sure he’s even a Slot choice (tho I’m excited to watch him). Player agents have described Hughes as “robotic”, cold to the touch, not a warm guy. He hasn’t got the new contracts over the line yet and Zubi backed out in him. Lastly, our squad depth has nothing to do with Hughes. I know “my people” are stupid, short sighted and uncool but we try our best. You f-ing knob head.
@@M-Anfield-G-A I kind of agree with both of you. But the team is the best in the world. What happens in June will be very interesting. I think Chiesa will end up being the Diaz replacement. He will need to double or triple his contract or he will be gone soon. The midfield will need one addition at the most.
What is to say that TAA will sign, but will want a signing on fee - It wont Match what Real Madrid will give for signing fee,but wages wise, they will not pay TAA over £18 million a year in salary. Maybe what TAA is looking for is a signing on fee of £30 million
The reason I have no sympathy for Arsenal’s injuries are a lot of them are self-inflicted through having a small squad/not rotate enough over the past two seasons
Really dont know where the club are going with the decisions there making because at the minute there going to have to spend a fortune in the summer and they just dont do that.
@@podiumnutter it’s hard to tell. If you would ask me if Elliott makes more sense for Klopp or Slot, I’d say Slot without hesitation. Slot seems to go with high athleticism players.
When playing devil's advocate, why don't they mention us being top this time last year and where that ended, following another January window with no signings? Saying we are top now so we can stay top for the rest of the season ignores the fact that we are the team that has been top at Christmas most but then gone on to not win the league. If the club fail to sort the contract situation and have a massive rebuild, they should have to front the cost and invest for it. And start with a Jan signing or two
U shouldn't sign a LB without letting one go. U do not want to end up with 3 senior LBs in the team. 2 seniors + one or two talented academy players in every single 11 positions is the most ideal in terms football and finance.
16:55 Can we still feel confident about winning the league without a new left back if other squads are strengthening in the transfer window? If Tsimikas gets injured can we rely on Robertson given his form lately? If Gravenberch gets kneecapped do can we win the next 15 games? I dont want to be a doom and gloom but I have seen us lose the league by a single point too often to swing my dick with absolute conviction.
Even the wording around CB, muddling through…. Why are we happy with muddling through and just praying that konate survives . Touch wood. What is wrong with people, why can’t you say we could do with another CB in to cover us . Surely the whole point of this show is to say where we are covered and where we aren’t
Chiesa more successful forward second to salah career wise hes not even too old but not seated in 11 starting. Hes quitecapable i think hes gonna pay dividends
Please cut the videos at the beginning so there isn't a minute wait for the video. A little annoying but mostly because I'll stick it on and then forget only to get a heartattack from the intro

Goes through arsenals injuries mentions Gabriel / Saliba who have missed no more than 5 games yet doesn’t mention Konate who has missed a good number of games which coincided with the team conceding more goals
Absolutely sick of Liverpool social media channels crying about no transfers, that idiot of where’s the money John. Buying ready made replacement for injury in all areas don’t make sense when already have squad looking for game time, Curtis, Harvey chisa Connor kostas etc and slot actually prefer small squads. Young lads game time. We don’t need anyone in January window
False. False. (1) Why would LFC put in a bid for Zubimendi if we didn’t already need a #6 Midfielder? (2) Are you going to win a UCL Semifinal/Final with Robertson as LB?
I actually think the combination of our two left banks would be more than fine for the rest of the season. If a top class one becomes available after that, all good, but I am less worried than many.
This video should have been 10 seconds long. Because if you believe most Liverpool fans their deep dive into our squad depth is we’re not deep enough.😂
Any1 else notice salah doesnt ever try to find nunez or put him though , he scored a belter .....but he could of sqaured nunez for a tap in ,,,get is confidence bk up,,,, just think hes abit out for himself and not the team. ,,,.just my opinion
Deluded if Nunez had taken the chances since the start of last season that Salah had laid on a plate for him he would have another 20+ assists easily. Salah also came out and said he prefers playing with Nunez more than anyone else
Nunez isn't get the service only player who puts him.through is trent. You can see the frustration in nunez is face he's fuming he makes the runs but gets no pass
