Yeah the Klopp style was like a dopamine hit for the modern football fan because it was exciting and full of thrills and spills. Certain viewers won’t like the more patient possession based football. Albeit less than 45% possession at the weekend doesn’t really align with that statement. What’s really stood out to me so far is the absence of draws. Draws can be a killer in a title race, some can be good but so far Slot has managed to avoid any.

Fab. Sounded better in my head.

Liverpool had controlled most games up to the Chelsea fixture. It was a pragmatic move by Slot that in one way is a good contrast to Klopp who just stuck to his all out pressing game … which undid him last year. But it also handed the initiative to Chelsea who i thought were meh really given how much ball they were allowed have.

Liverpool tend to feel their way into games these days. No blistering starts but a gradual seizing of control

Unreal

In depth ‘analysis’ is a bit footixy but id see it more as the pies are much nicer at anfield than old Trafford, John Henry is a great man to hold the door open for women or Curtis Jones took the name Seamus for his confirmation.

Klopp won the lot to be fair. I can see where you’re coming from with the more controlled brand of football. Definitely not a more attacking style like you were suggesting though. We shall see if Slot can replicate and better Klopp’s success. The improvement in Gravenberch is encouraging but they had a nice run of fixtures early on.

The Slot Machine - Liverpool FC and Football Tourists

Atmosphere came across well on TV judging by the highlights. Hard to fully gauge where Liverpool are at so far this season. I wouldn’t say they were good today but they got the job done again and Arne’s tweaks in the second-half helped turn it. A winnable league if City don’t replace Rodri in the January transfer window. It looks as if the points tally required to win it may drop below 90 points this season. Arsenal will be kicking themselves with the points that they’ve dropped recently.

I’m on week 3 of a sizeable last man standing due to no input or knowledge from myself. My first 2 weeks were auto pucked cos the seller didn’t ask me to pick 2 teams so Arsenal week 1 and Aston Villa week two. Should i stick with the alphabetical strategy or choose someone else?

Am down to the last 3. Wondering if I should go for Spurs to beat Fulham or Utd to beat Leicester?

[Juhniallio]

Spurs are flying! Do it.

[mikehunt]

@neilld was singing Fulham’s praises last night. As shit as Utd are they’ll surely beat Leicester.

[Juhniallio]

Nothing would make me happier than united fucking up your chances Mike. Go for Spurs i reckon…

[Batigol]

United surely
