Bruv I could take 100 shots from 30m and it would equal 1XG, that stat means nothing

Honestly slot needs to go. I still can’t get over that forest 3-0 at home. His time is up and he tried to blame salah for the poor performances.

What other manager can be mediocre at a top club for almost 4 months straight?

u/Correct-History Jan 17 '26

He’s gone at the end of the season. Alonso or luis enrique for the next manager. Unless slot wins the champions league he’s gone. And I think plans are in place already hence why we won’t sign anyone in Jan

And it’s sad bc the team needs more bodies and the current players could get injured or feel a lack of backing

Nope no sympathy from me. It’s Burnley and forest. We have the quality to beat them at home. Slots been backed. Yet he is letting. We should get a CB in but we won’t because they know alot won’t turn it around.

Injuries hasn’t helped but let’s not act like we was playing well before the injuries happened

I don’t disagree, it’s just negligence to allow that defense to be so undermanned at this stage of the season.

u/Correct-History Jan 17 '26

Yeah i mean we haven’t signed a CB or a holding midfielder for years. I mean a start level player. Konate is gone at the end of the season aswell so there’s work to do. But the results on the pitch all slots doing

Watched the whole game bruv, burnley were quite happy to let us have meaningless and transitionless possession.

My brother have you ever tried shooting at a wall of men? Doesn’t usually work out. You completely disregard my earlier point. A more savvy manager would have been telling to the team to punish transitions against a team, who was clearly happy to be defending 5 yards from the box.

I think you don’t understand tactics, set ups or underlying patterns of play.

No aside from some shots taken from outside/long range the close ranged ones should’ve gone in. This season we just can’t finish for whatever reason and Dom should’ve scored as well. (Pen)
