awful game but this was expected, Liverpool is the most in form team probably in Europe right now, while we have one of the worst form currently. not sure if anyone expected anything else than shitting the bed at Anfield. we will do next season too and did it about 11-12 of 15 times in last 15 seasons.
Pep knew what to expect from the dippers, they did play to expectation, yet we were not able to limit them creating chances after chances. while scoring fuck all again is unfortunately a theme now. if Haaland doesnt score nobody else is stepping up.
while Saka and Salah improved their G+A again in this round, our wingers happy to deliver 0 assists and 0 goals once again. probably next game too.
back to 5th place, which was also expected, 4 losses in a row and other caught up with us. unfortunately mighty rags now only 4 points behind and if our tactics and performance does not improve I fear the worst in the derby game. Amorim outclassed us with Sporting few weeks back, last thing we need is do it with the rags too.
something rotten in the dressing room, either they not trusting Pep anymore and dont want to play this type of game, or there is some other issue we dont know yet. or just a big collective burnout after the high tempo trophy winning years. not one player can be so far delighted with their season, not one. maybe Haaland, but when goals start to dry up for him he really doesnt add to the team much. but the other 20+ players are a bigger culprit as most of them dont even do the basics right.
Pep renewal was expected to give us not just a big positive spin but also a serious injection into the result. yet we are doing awful since Pep renewed.
