FOOTBALL English Premier League 25/26 Discussion

Just catching up on some media, I will say, Slot's consistent bemoaning of his opponents playstyles and how it impacts theirs is honestly ridiculous.

Why does he expect teams to just rock up and bend over for the champs to play right through them, allowing them to play to all their strengths only? Oh Frankfurt played a way which allowed us to play how we wanted. Yeah no ****ing shit and they shipped 5 at home because of it...

Its actually ridiculous and moreso ridiculous he doesnt get called out for it.

If Arteta said half the shit Slot says you'd never hear the end of it, and I cannot stand Arteta.

Nice to break the losing streak but hard to read too much into that game, Frankfurt were so open and you're never going to get that time and space in the EPL.

Dom and Wirtz were excellent however.

I wouldn't say Salah stunk it up when he came on but he's just so desperate for a goal it's impacting the rest of the team. I'd be inclined to leave him on the bench for now and let the others continue to grow.

Where's the mention of Curtis Jones?

122 completed passes at 96%. 94 of those in the opposition half.

Gave Macca a lesson on ball possession. So good to see.

Probably because no one really cares. Managers moan all the time, similar things were said about Klopp blaming the pitch or wind, and they've been said about Pep and Arteta over the years.

If the guy triggers you just don't watch his interviews.
 
3 wins in a row and into top 4. Backing up a good win against Liverpool with a strong win against one of our bogey sides.

I don't recognize this team at the moment 😂. That United fan might finally be able to shave his head...

I'm sure it won't be long until we're brought crashing back down to earth. A couple more tough games coming up against sides we have struggled against in recent years.
 
Brentford are winning every battle on the pitch so far. Making life very difficult for Liverpool.

Can they keep it up, though?
 
Drama.

A free kick for Brentford might turn out to be a penalty because the foul appears to have happened on the line.
 
Penalty for Brentford.

Wow. Not much in it.

When VAR were delaying the game, I thought they were checking a potential red for Salah.
 
Goal.

Brentford 3-1. They restore their 2 goal lead.

Not a good night for Liverpool.
 
Salah looks like a shadow of his former self. The confidence seems really low.

Not sure why Slot is keeping him on the pitch.
 
Salah finally does something.

Good finish.

Not sure why Brentford were playing out from the back.
 
7 minutes added time. Thanks to how long it took to come to that penalty decision.

Enough time for LIverpool to get an equalizer.
 
That was more of a penalty than the last one but can't give two penalties against Liverpool.
 
Another 3 minutes added onto the 7.

Come on ref. Giving Liverpool every opportunity here.
