They should ask him why he's been so rubbish at defending in recent months. What the team needs first of all is a new, quality CB – to put pressure on Van Dijk and Konate and to be there if one of them gets injured or suspended.
Vandik and Konate have a very bad way of playing and that is, they’re both very slow on the ball. They hang on the ball too much, always pointing fingers when they’re with the ball. They both have a very slow pace as well and that’s not good for our defense.
My captain..
He has been shit all pre season an again today. His mind and body isn't in it.
Thanks, Vvd
Salah has been a Ghost since Ramadan. He looks done.
Slot should have started Endo
Klopp used to never let new signings play immediately.. after 2-3 games they used to play
After this match i have realised how gravenberch is imp to us
Mark my word, LFC made so many mistake leaving so many good players, they won't even make it this year to the top 10. The pathetic performance today reflected their attitdue as a team and individuals.
Very bad skipper
New team, different flow, will take some time to adjust. Have faith all YNWA.
We missed Diaz
Our defensive line will be the undoing in our title defense if we don’t have reinforcements..Slot needs to be ruthless on that end..
We need mac guey a CB, and Isak, lets pay dollars to have them
We need a defender to compete with Virgil and Konate..
League about to start and we hope to see a solid defense and attackers to compete with other top teams in the league and Europe too

Past it.
we know ur disappointed virgil but it was ur fault. you disappointed us we wanted to win but you gave away a penalty and salah sky rocketed his penalty bro our 2 main players sold us the game
One poor second half display and all the top surgeons are out dissecting how terrible Liverpool are going to be. YAWN
my problem and wuestion is why its hard to sub or change salah even wen is clear he is not in d game…………i am happy it show in his penalty shoot………….florian was evry where even ekitike was every where , salah stood nd wait for ball he did not see until he decide to cum inside…….florian is turning d partern of forcing or runing game………..until salah cause dem another big chance dey will reealise that everyone has a chance
Him and Salah are disappointing. Earn too damn much money. His defending was poor.
Saying like this, you are trully bastard, VVD! Shame on you! In fact you are the weakest spot on Liverpool defense area for the last 3 season. You are old, slow, lame, and lazy. Playing this season will be a disaster. Back home you, jerk!
