3 Stacks

I think everyone has enough respect for his professionalism and knows it won't be about downing tools. It'll be about potentially carrying a passenger in the 11 when we're defending, off the ball, tactical considerations, stuff like that.

I'm generally on the "he's useless" side, but he's winning me over a tiny bit. He does stuff in matches that's exciting. I don't think we need him and Jones, though. They aren't different enough and they're close to the same age. We might as well get rid of one of them.

I think if we sign a 6 that performs, things will fall into place clearly.

It's impossible to tell what we'll do, imo because I think the whole concept behind our attack is to have 5 of them who collectively kind of hide the individuals' weaknesses and presumably the person who came up with this in Klopp is leaving. And so with a new manager/board, what profiles we keep is kind of up in the air. Do Edwards/Hughes/Slot want to get rid of the striker with technical deficiencies, the winger who runs with his head down and can't finish, the forward who isn't much of a goal threat, the forward who isn't really a winger, nor lone striker who also misses 2 months every season. And then Salah is a seperate issue.

I think Diaz could play with Ronaldo and he'd struggle to get 10 assists. He doesn't combine with anybody.

If Nunez, Jota or Gakpo all stay, I don't see how the club justifies buying a striker. If Slot likes wide players, he's probably gonna want wingers, not to move one or some of those 3 out wide.

He already sort of is playing behind the striker. His statistical profile has changed since Nunez got to the club. More progressive passes and he isn't taking players on out wide.

I got Zoloft prescribed a month ago for my health anxiety and haven't started taking it yet because I'm scared of side effects. My brain is absolutely dusted.

He wouldn't accept that and it's not a good use of 400k per week.

I think we have to see who we'd sign and what the combinations of players we can put on the pitch are. With Mané-Firmino-Salah, you just knew it made sense. It's going to be way harder with Diaz and Nunez and their finishing, among other things is obviously a problem but the mindset if they're there has to be that it's a fresh start next season.

That could have been Romero's 3rd.

If the system is good, you probably don't need someone who scores a million goals. You can spread the goals around. City before Haaland, Arsenal now.

Son has 24 goals+assists. That's pretty much around what he does every season.

The Arsenal thing is simple in terms of the squad; the front 4, including Odegaard, are all technically very good and work hard, and then the rest of the side is just big and nasty.

No one's ever light years ahead of anyone in football.

Arsenal are just a different proposition. Big, pragmatic and nasty.

This game is like a prime Mourinho team playing against some naive bambi.

Deserved goal for Spurs. Edit: not gonna count

Salah's a great player but he's not one of the best of all time. He doesn't get to try to big dick Jurgen Klopp when he's playing like garbage. This isn't Messi or Ronaldo.

I mean, it's absolutely clear that the best thing would be moving on. Even just putting aside whether he is declining or not, you have to factor in whether he will respect a guy like Arne Slot. Salah has a far bigger status in the game than Slot does. That's just a bad dynamic right there.

He played pretty well. Showed his ability.

It was before Covid the last time you were right about literally anything, buddy.

Maybe your best post ever.

Do you have thousands of meme's saved to your computer? They're all fucking shite, by the way.
