I've never believed in Arteta, he was a bang average player and he is an even worse manager. He has that same stroppy, "I know better", Wenger attitude. While we were on the "unbeaten" run I never got excited about it once, ever thinking, maybe, just maybe....Instead the reality is, one is waiting for the inevitable hammering and it arrived today. We could easily have lost to Brighton (probably should have) and definitely should have lost to CP. I knew as soon as we faced anybody half decent, we would get shown up. As DB so often says, there are too many poor teams for us to ever get into a relegation battle, BUT, we are a mid table team and we will remain there with Arteta in charge. Win a few, lose the important ones, couple of draws, win a few, get HAMMERED....basically tread water around the middle of the table....and on and on it will go......... The thing is Arteta is not going to lose enough games on the bounce to get fired, so we are stuck with him.
Were 5th not mid table though :lol: :lol:

We’ve played well recently as hard as it to accept though right ?
It's arguable....how well did we play, did we consistently dominate and sweep aside lower level teams?? We will NOT compete for top honours...Arteta Will NOT get us there.

1-0 v Norwich
1 - 0 v Burnley

Desperate draws against CP and Brighton.

Decent wins against Leicester and AV.


And as soon as we face a top 6 side, we not only lose but get HAMMERED. I reckon we'll finish around 8th.
It remains to be seen if the manager can return us to glory days with all the oil money around these days but there’s no doubt we are improving as his tenure continues so there’s no reason for the level of despondency every time we don’t get the result we seek. It’s always going to be hard for us at anfield and the etihad it doesn’t even need saying and our results against the bigger sides with this manager have improved and we look more organised


Think Ian Wright summed it up right last night, bad result but no real reason to lose the plot. People need to get a grip and move on
Oil money? Liverpool's oil money, or Spurs or Leicester or any number of teams that have finished above us in recent seasons?

Man City and Chelsea have resources to shame everyone else. United spend ridiculous money too. That aside nobody has any financial advantage over us (until Newcastle finally let loose)

Arteta and Solskjaer are illustrating the point perfectly - between the pair of them they're outspending most teams and still serving up shit.

A "bad result", mentioned as if its some kind of one off rare event

Last season when they were shit they rolled us over 6-1 over two games. City 0-5, Chelsea 0-2 when it could have been ten. Our keeper was our best player in a four nil defeat. Its just the latest in a long line of batterings and 160m invested and virtually zero injuries have made no difference

As I expected the wheels came off against a decent side, never mind lads, respect the process.

Arteta is too inexperienced to be managing a club with top 4 aspirations never mind 'allegedly' wishing to challenge. He should be plying his trade as a number two or learning in a lower league as no 1.

Again it is not just his fault there is a certain arrogance in football these days especially amongst ex-players who think because they played at a high level they can immediately jump into another profession at the highest level.

As with overextending Wenger's tenure time and time again they will persist with Arteta because they still do not understand football management is not just about coaching :roll:

Cheers mate, yes it is beautiful, the scenery is amazing and you only get to see a lot of it from the river unless you own land around it, you can hire Canadian canoes from where I get in and that's a good day if you want to take family etc, we took our dogs once, spent most of the time in the river trying to get them back in as every time we slowed down they jumped out and into the river :lol:

The final score line looks worse than we actually performed. Just before they scored their first goal we had a spell of possession during which the previously quiet anfield crowd jeered us loudly. We were getting to them. Liverpool have 5-6 world class players in the starting 11, we don't have anyone close to that level. When they all step up and perform to their maximum this is what they do to teams. For the first time in 3-4 seasons Liverpool had to play at their maximum to beat us.
I'm reminded of the '87/'88 season when a young Graham Arsenal team on a decent run of form got blown away by the brilliant Liverpool team of that era. It feels the same. We are finally getting there. We just need patience after this performance. I will go as far as saying, when we play them at home in April, we'll beat this Liverpool team.

The final score looks BETTER than we performed - did you miss the endless saves that Ramsdale made? Honestly, 7-0 wouldn't have flattered them

As for the 87/88 comparison, I remember us getting narrowly beaten 1-0 at home in the league by an Ian Rush goal. I don't recall 4 or 5 goal stuffings where we barely register a shot on goal

This team is nothing like that vintage

The first half yes I don’t think was too bad.
The second half was worrying - as bad as anything I have seen in the last 10-15 years.

Don't you remember the 3-0 hammering in 1987 at Anfield? After that we learnt as a team how to play them and then we killed them off.

I'm pretty sure that's how Liverpool supporters used to think when we ruled the top 4 for 20 years. Never give up hoping we'll be back up there ahead of those 3. Football is cyclical and our time will come again, and it'll be sooner rather than later.
