He cannot pass, he cannot tackle, he has zero awareness (yet again showed that for his error leading to 2nd goal today), he doesnt track runners, repeatedly loses the ball, positionally is diabolical, he cannot dribble or beat a man, he rarely gets an asisst or a goal \u2013 he is a liability and when he starts we are starting with 10 men. He is only of value if not in the team or even at the club. This is the reality, yet the deluded media and commentators seem to think he is world class and doing great. Please wake up, he is atrocious and not worthy of to be at LFC. Klopp is deluded regarding Elliott.<\/p>\n<p>Nunez \u2013 the guy is not worth \u00a316m let alone \u00a364m \u2013 his finishing is atrocius, 16 BIG chances this seasons totally missed, 16, Kane, Haaland, Mane, Strikers of Liverpool past (Owen, Fowler, Torres, Suarez even Dean Saunders) would have put at least 50-90% of those same chances away. Top strikers finish, their conversion rates are high, as sometimes they only get the one chance, Nunez is not a clinical striker, he doesnt have the natural composure and Liverpool dont have 3 seasons without anyone else pitching in with goals to find out. We bought this guy based on 2 appearances against us last season, we did the same with Minamino (but only spent \u00a36m there) so it didnt hurt as bad. Klopp and the entire club are deluded regarding Nunez.<\/p>\n<p>Midfield \u2013 our entire midfield is dogshite, they dont have the legs or desire to compete anymore, Keita, Ox, Curtis and Elliott are just not good enough and 3 of the 4 cant stay fit for longer than a game anyway, move them the fuck on. Thats it. Thiago, Hendo and Fabinho are only squad players anymore. They cannot protect the defense and they have zero creativity, we literally should just sign 24 years olds, that can tackle, be aggressive, recycle the ball and pass sideways, because thats all they do but not as good as they used to a couple years ago. Move them all on, its time and buy 5\/6 new midfielders that have the desire, skill to make an impact, win us games and get us back to the top.<\/p>\n<p>Defense \u2013 without a midfield that can protect, our defense is atrocious at playing the high line. We set ourselves up every game to be countered against very easily over and over again \u2013 why cant the club\u2019s staff and players see this, the delusion is embedded to the core. The entire footballing country can see this and every team is scoring goals against us because of this, yet they dont want to change, whose ego is getting in the way of this?<\/p>\n<p>Effort, Desire and Distance covered \u2013 big issue, from consistently being top for running stats last few seasons bar Covid season, we are nowhere near the top\u2026this is the single biggest issue, the squad is old\/stale, doesnt have the desire and doesnt want to change its style to stop conceding goals. New blood (in the form of at least 6\/7 players is needed) without this, there is no return to previous seasons.<\/p>\n<p>Pep Ljinders \u2013 How the fuck was he allowed to release a book in the summer, he isnt even the head coach, did no thick t*** at the club stop him, its a total farce and deeply embarassing to release a book after winning 2 cups, titled INTENSITY and then immediately after see the team have next to no intentsity for the first half of the season, on top of that lay out all your tactics for every other manager. Klopp, the players and the board should be ashamed for allowing it. What a shit show!!<\/p>\n<p>Rant (full of facts) over.<br \/><strong>Ash, LFC.\u00a0P.S. Starting to feel 1992 again!!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Not taking away from the Brentford performance who deserved to win but how does the third goal stand?<\/p>\n<p>Konate stands between Mbeumo and the ball and ends up on the floor\u2026 why would he go down and how is that not a push and foul?<\/p>\n<p>Still undecided on Nunez but I would say it\u2019s all very well getting into the positions and running the channels but if he puts away the early chance the game looks very different. Goals change the dynamics of a game and teams can\u2019t afford to spurn chances.<\/p>\n<p>We now clearly have a porous defence, slow and soft midfield and non-scoring forwards. Lots to work on!<br \/><strong>Zak LFC\u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Liverpool inconsistency<\/strong><br \/>Another match and another 3 points dropped. The problem with Liverpool is that we have players who fail to show up consistently. Where the fuck was Faes tonight? No where to be seen.<br \/><strong>Jason G, Montreal Canada<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Where\u2019s Faes when you need him?<br \/><strong>Aidan, Lfc<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Samson<br \/><\/strong>There\u2019s a line in the Bible\u2019s story of Samson and Delilah when he\u2019s just had his locks cut off and he gets up: \u201che thought he could beat the Philistines as he had before.\u201d\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.football365.com\/news\/opinion-van-dijk-can-liverpool-win-premier-league-again\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Reading your article<\/strong><\/a> made me think of that. Big Virgil might as well be sporting a Jaap Stam haircut, his powers have gone but he still thinks he can beat anyone because he used to be imperious.<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately Konat\u00e9 has not returned from the World Cup in the best form, and I think we\u2019ll have to muddle through because Matip can\u2019t do it all himself. Mind you, there\u2019s always Nat Phillips, he might be getting some game time while Virgil\u2019s hair grows back.<br \/><strong>Paul in Brussels (Nunez should be on shooting practice and nothing else every day)\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Haaland making Man City worse<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.football365.com\/news\/spurs-fan-gives-up-spurs-after-villa-antonio-conte\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dave in the Monday morning mailbox<\/a><\/strong> was asking if we thought if Haaland has made City worse this season compared to last.\u00a0Instead of spouting nonsense based on some of their recently dropped points &amp; forgetting City\u2019s flaws last season, I had a look at the current table &amp; decided to come up with some points-based nonsense.<\/p>\n<p>Currently City have 36 points from 16 games, if they carry on with the same points per game ratio then they would finish on 85\/86 points, which is indeed some way short of their final points total of 93 last season.<\/p>\n<p>But the past few seasons City have generally started their seasons slowly before picking up in the new year which has been enough to see them through to the title. So, I looked back to last season to see they had 38 points after 16 games last year which is indeed 2 more than this season but not much of a margin of error.<\/p>\n<p>Those 38 points last year were enough for City to be sat top of the league, one point above Liverpool. Whereas Arsenal currently have 43 points after 16 games which would have been enough for them to sit top of the league last season with a 5 point cushion. City aren\u2019t much worse than last season, if at all, but Arsenal are performing better this season than City were at the same point last season.<\/p>\n<p>What Haaland will be judged on is how he performs in the big games when it matters, against Arsenal who he hasn\u2019t met yet &amp; in the knock out stages of the Champions League. So, what was the point in this mail you say? Don\u2019t you love open ended conclusions?<br \/><strong>Mick, Cardiff<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Where do I begin\u2026<\/strong><br \/>I\u2019ve been quiet on this subject as I didn\u2019t really know Graham Potter, but man I miss Thomas Tuchel. I\u2019m probably wrong about this and I\u2019ll be happy to eat my words, but I have disliked Potter from his first interview.<\/p>\n<p>With Tuchel you could see his passion on the sideline, his anger and disappointment at not winning. In his interviews you could see he was tactically very astute, understanding the assets and liabilities of different formations and gameplans. He was honest in his assessment and gave a clear explanation\u00a0of what was happening.<\/p>\n<p>Potter on the other hand\u2026 where do I start? His answers are small snippets of meaningless throw-away\u00a0lines. He never says anything insightful\u00a0to give you a feeling that he understands what\u2019s going wrong or how to fix it. He never looks or sounds upset that Chelsea lost, he sounds like a mid-table manager just happy to be in the league rather than a Chelsea manager where every time we don\u2019t win should be seen as a disaster.<\/p>\n<p>I know that Tuchel had struggled to get the team scoring but there was the sense that if it could be figured out, he\u2019d know how to do it. With Potter it feels like he\u2019s a good man-motivator but there\u2019s little more to him than that.<\/p>\n<p>Again, I\u2019m probably wrong about Potter, his record at his previous clubs is exemplary, but I think I\u2019m not alone amongst Chelsea fans wishing for a Tuchel reunion.<br \/><strong>Ed<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>PS \u2013 Unlike other Chelsea fans I\u2019m not against Boehly et al. They have put down some serious money for us and improved the structure of the club from a Russian\u2019s toy to a business that will succeed for years to come.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>What to do with Kulusevski?<\/strong><br \/>As an Arsenal supporter it pleases me to witness Tottenham\u2019s woes. While I\u2019m surprised that their performances have dropped off so drastically from last season, their recruitment strategy must be contributing in some way.<\/p>\n<p>EVERY Spurs supporter that I speak to claims that Kulusevski is their most creatine outlet. Now while I understand he is currently out injured, I don\u2019t understand why the club didn\u2019t buy him after last season\u2019s successful loan, if he is so integral to their style of play?<br \/><strong>Jovan (London)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>How can Spurs fans turn on their club now?<\/strong><br \/>I can understand Spurs fans being frustrated with their team. Spurs have been below par for much of this season and at times they play pretty terrible football. They are probably underachieving a bit considering their coach and the squad they have and their defence frequently looks pretty shaky.<\/p>\n<p>That said, David Clarke\u2019s email from Monday morning left me genuinely open mouthed. He has supported Spurs since the 70s and this is where he draws the line? Spurs are fifth- 2 points behind 4th and 6 points beyond the robotic brilliance of Manchester City. They topped their champions league group and face a decent tie in the last 16. They have a great coach and have made a lot of excellent signings recently.\u00a0 Most teams would be absolutely delighted to be in their position.<\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the thing- even if Spurs were rooted at the bottom of the table and heading for relegation, that doesn\u2019t justify ceasing to support your club. You can\u2019t possibly call yourself a real fan if that\u2019s how you approach fandom.<br \/><strong>Turiyo Damascene, Kigali, Rwanda.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Antonio Conte<br \/><\/strong>Happy new year to you all, get that out of the way before I call you out on your United missed a trick in not getting Conte shtick. Seems United were right in not appointing Conte and trusting in ETH and his process, I for one am really looking forward to how ETH develops this side going forward sticking it to all the gobshites who called him a fraud. Lastly can I just say Graham Souness is an absolute spunk trumpet with his take on Casemiro, not World class, never been great, this from the man who signed Ali Dia.<br \/><strong>Paul Murphy, Manchester<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Everton &gt; Atletico<\/strong><br \/>When are Everton going to be called out for their massive levels of absolute shithousery?<\/p>\n<p>I mean, is it actually possible to have three players down, all faking injury, in three separate areas of the pitch?<\/p>\n<p>Is it possible to have three separate players all refuse to take a throw in?<\/p>\n<p>Is it also possible for the final player to then question as to whether it\u2019s actually their throw in, at all?<\/p>\n<p>Is it possible for Pickford to miss taking a lovely looooong drink before Every. Single. Goalkick?<\/p>\n<p>Is it feasible for their players to crowd round the ball when the free kick is against them but then protest vociferously when the opposition player is only 9 yards away when the free kick is for Everton?<\/p>\n<p>Why can\u2019t referees see what\u2019s happening? Why can\u2019t Everton be punished for this despoilation of the game by playing serious added on time and making it plain that so much extra time is added because of their own tactics? I mean, we had an added 11 minutes to the second half at the Etihad but 8 minutes of that was added because play was stopped as the linesman had a faulty radio\u2026.so\u2026.no punishment at all.<\/p>\n<p>So many questions. Only one answer, Everton are the Premier League\u2019s answer to Atletico Madrid and we\u2019ve all see the protestations and anger in the Mailbox after a Premier League team has played Atletico.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, we can all see that Everton no longer tick the Big Club box. The celebration from the fans at getting a point proves this. These tactics are unbefitting of a club that has so much self regard. This team should be filed in the box labelled as a Colin Warnock club. As soon as Everton scored their admittedly great equaliser, I turned to the guy stood next to me and told him that we were now going to see the shithousing levels go off the scale because i just\u2026.knew they would.<\/p>\n<p>School of Science? My arse.<\/p>\n<p>Everton should take a good long look at themselves in the mirror. They should be ashamed at what they see.<\/p>\n<p>Just trying to help<br \/><strong>Levenshulme Blue, M19\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>(PS.

I think he may have been aiming to break champions league records, so tried\u00a0to manufacture a move in the summer that was ultimately unsuccessful. For whatever reasons, Champions\u00a0League clubs didn\u2019t take him, maybe money, maybe age, or whatever, but he still didn\u2019t get his move.My take is that, he\u00a0left because he wasn\u2019t even playing at Man U. He was a sub, and I think that\u2019s what got him riled up. I believe he had got over the fact that he was going to play in the Europa League, but the fact that he wasn\u2019t even starting in the premier league, and had been relegated to the bench made him frustrated.<\/p>\n<p>This is not an excuse for how he acted and has continued to act, it\u2019s just an alternative view on how he acted.<br \/><strong>Dave(He may also be a pompous a**hole), somewhere\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Guess what Karma is?<\/strong><br \/>There\u2019s a reason why you don\u2019t read a lot of mails from City fans on F365 crowing or giving it the Bertie Big Bollocks.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0It\u2019s because decades of clutching defeat from the jaws of victory have conditioned us to not be so arrogant.\u00a0\u00a0We\u2019ll leave that to the red halves of Manchester and Merseyside.\u00a0\u00a0We know better.\u00a0\u00a0Even with squillions of Petro-dollars we still suffer from \u201cTypical City\u201d syndrome, something which is hard to shake after so many years.<\/p>\n<p>That said, may I ask two questions from the authors of two mails in the Monday morning mailbox?<\/p>\n<p><em>David, Caleeforneeya<\/em>\u00a0\u00a0\u2026Just curious, are Liverpool considered contenders for top six, still?<\/p>\n<p><em>Oh, and Steve, LFC.
