Don't understand the red

I came here to understand the red. I never still understand am

100%
I think the team still lacks a bit of confidence in their abilities to not concede goal when there's a bit of pressure, but also the confidence that they can score at any time is also building.
a couple of clean sheets should take the team to the next level.

I agree. Our attackers are averaging 2 goals a game recently. We need our defenders to step up

Unpopular opinion: Last match was the kind of match we lose all three points last season

I see Amorim sub today as a case of lack of confidence on his attacking options or he didn't think they were fit enough

They need to close down these crosses

Jamiuokolaa:
Mesef shock o

Appears the man doesn't even have answers - his comments to the press have been worse than Amorim's..lol

Losses na bad thing sha

True!

This life has no script. Someone that won the league comfortably and spent a lot to make the squad look much better is now struggling

Jamiuokolaa:
The bigger concern for the man is the rumours of a Klopp return that are circulating already.

This embarrassing loss would only make the whispers louder

Nobody even remembers that Slot won the league last season without buying anybody.

Las las, a manager is only as good as his current form

It is what it is..

And just a couple of months ago they were the favorites. What could have gone wrong?

Lana1:
Nawa. What do we now call this Liverpool slump? 1 win and 6 losses in 7 games. Perhaps Slot should consider changing formation. 4-3-3 might help

His players are better suited for 343. He should stop being rigid and play based on their strength

Jamiuokolaa:
Currently, the gulf in class between Mbeumo and the other attackers is just too wide.

Yeah, everyone cant pick form at the same time/rate but that difference is just too much at the moment.

Thankfully, he doesnt seem to be injury prone. Hopefully, his excellent form continues. But we all know how unpredictable football can be.

This is why I am fervently hoping and praying that our other attacking players start firing on all cylinders .

Sesko had some opportunities to score today to boost his confidence and morale but sadly, it didn't happen.

If they continue to play like this, Sesko and Cunha will score goals. I have no doubt. We got some very good chances from Sesko pressing and interceptions

TrebleChamp:
But must he make 6 changes in the game? Do we see top manager make this plenty changes when their team is winning comfortably? If we were chasing the game, then it is understandable...

He is still trying bring the full team up to speed or at least, most of the players. No matter what run of form and wins we're enjoying right now, this team is still a team in transition, and he wants to be assured that he can call on any of the players any time and they will deliver. Most of the players he brought in need game time and this was the best time to give them game time. We were supposed to be comfortable at 3-0 up.

Right now we're probably an injury away from falling into crisis again

Englishisamust:
Abeg I won ask between dalot and dorgu who better pass.. he be like say two of them dey share the same wack brain

Two hideous twins

Englishisamust:
Odizeey.. you know see as everywhere just semo!!! Waiting winning no fit do dosent exist!!! . To complain Kon hard some people

Make e last small abeg so we can rest

Lana1:
It was bad bro. Those guys were terrible at everything

We have really suffered. I'm praying for Cunha to start making a lot of smart decisions with the ball so that things will start to click on both sides

Lana1:
Still plenty question marks on Amorim but some things are slowly starting to fall in place

That Amad - Mbuemo wing/combo is a breadth of fresh air. Opponents are finding it difficult to silence that wing. Cunha and Dalot/Dorgu on the other side need to play with each other more and understand each other better

odizeey:
If them no give others chance them go say the man dey waste players.

Exactly! If he can't play them at 3 goals up, is it when the match is zeroes he should now play them?

MRTA7:
Ultimately no one cares about your formation if you're winning games. Thats all that matters. If you're losing games everything gets questioned. Even Liverpool are starting to get questioned on their formation.

This is just it. When things don't click and you're unable to score goals and win games, everything gets questioned. Start winning and everyone goes silent until the next winless run

Lana1:
This man
You no even fit enjoy the win for 2 hours before you start fight

Ah I was just observing o. I am vert peaceful

engrelvis:
Exactly my point. lnfact he immediately he started making those changes i raise my concern. Which one is giving game to some players?. There is enough time for that.

When is the time for that? I mean the time you won't complain

TrebleChamp:
Keep him to do what? You people say he is not good enough again. Better he is sold for profit and a player who can play his position better is signed..

We didn't spend one dollar to buy him. He is still very young. He is homegrown

So no more noise about 343? It is well o

Jamiuokolaa:
It needs to come fast o and hopefully, today's goal would settle him a bit and Spur him on more.

God forbid that something happens to Mbuemo, "instrumental at both ends of the pitch" no go help us o

Na you sabi

BlueMann:
Omo today bitter gan

Chai

Why na? What happened?

Jamiuokolaa:
How many goals + assists does Cunha have so far?

The goals and assists will come. He has been very instrumental in our play so far on both sides of the pitch

CapitalCee:
Thos stupid idea of giving people game time is rubbish against a team like Brighton. We need to maintain a winning team, anyone who is not happy with their game time should use the door.

We are playing just 1 game a week. Amorim need to start with the same team every week we dont care.

And we need to offload certain players in our second batch of rebuilding

We absolutely need to. I'll keep Mainoo because he is homegrown and a local

CapitalCee:
Walahi these guys need to stay in bench permanently.

These are the same players that lost to Grimsby. Same people. We are playing once a week. We need to maintain the same team

Before today I would have argued against this, but after this match, I have to agree with you

Jamiuokolaa:
The numbers tell a different story

What numbers are you looking at?

Jamiuokolaa:
Burnley

Chelsea

Brighton

We struggled to kill off these games even when we were in absolute control - this is the bigger picture here and maybe not subs per say

Maybe they are not 100% fit yet and tire easily, or they prefer to stay back and defend, covering shorter distances instead of pushing up and covering more distances.

The players used to start very slowly in the past which results in us conceding and then running like mad men towards the end of the game. Hopefully soon we start playing the full 90 minutes at the same speed

TrebleChamp:
A defeat now and story will change to Case has passed it and should be sold to Saudi 😁😁

That Case is better than Mainoo and Ugarte combined does not mean he should be our starting player or that he should still remain at the club. It's an indictment on Mainoo and Ugarte

larride:
Make I hear anybody shout play Mainoo again.

I don't think anybody will drag Amorim about starting Mainoo again

chrisley024:
Case still better than Mainoo and Ugarte combined

Walahi! And it's a really annoying situation. They should be sitting Case down on the bench

Dalot and Dorgu on both sides is already a recipe for confusion and disaster. What should have been a comfortable win, they turned it into something else. Casemiro is still very much important in this team

Play Zirkzee, play Mainoo see am o
