You`re right, but the players must`ve had to " fit in " with the system that Slot wanted, so I`m sure Slot would`ve vetoed anyone he didn`t think would work.

Take Isak for instance, they chased and chased him and where prepared to pay whatever it took to get him.

yeah, he'll tell them what he thinks but Hughes came from Bournemouth where they did overpay for average players and it's a very different job at Liverpool.

Is Slot a good manager? His title team was basically a slightly adjusted Klopp team and when he tries to play more like his previous teams they are shite. I'm all for it and think he must stay.

The excuses when they started losing about how the death was affecting anyone was disgusting.

Did the death of Jota make Konate make a stupid tackle?

Which was initially pointed out by various outlets and then the Jota narrative started to develop and gained traction when things started to go wrong.

Salah having a go at Slot may help change this though, as I`m sure there`ll be some in the press, who`ve been thinking the same thing, but have been reluctant to move away from the death of Jota as an excuse for the team falling apart, for fear of the likely backlash they`d get.

Another problem for Slot, is that Klopp is like Fergie at Man Utd.

Whoever took the job after Klopp was always going to be compared to him.

His presence is still everywhere around the club, hanging around like the ghost of Christmas Past.

Yes that certainly didn't help Moyes with Sir Alex ferguson hanging over his shoulder like Darth Sidious was with Darth Vader.

I still think if given time Moyes could have been successful at United.

He’s a wonderful player to watch, one of my favourites in the entire league.
