Is there an element of these players just have become so comfortable, a bit of fat cat syndrome, and don't really have the stomach to scrap it out? You would think that a lot of fans may think that.
I think it's legitimate. I mean, you know, I'm not going to read the group of players out again, but most of them had played Premier League football. I mean, Patson Dakar, I think he did come in from Salzburg for like a huge fee. And you even, you know, look at the bench, Oliver Skip, you know, a talented player. How are they in that position? I do think, you know, it is, you know, we have given clubs praise.
on the Monday night club for gambling. And Leicester have just, you know, they have gambled, and the owner's desperate for them to get back in the Premier League. I don't know where they are budget-wise in the championship. And yet, you know, the owner's getting panned for that. Well, that's it. I don't know how to say goodbye, Andrew. Shall I say good luck? Good luck, yeah. Good night, good luck. I hope it picks up a bit at the end of the show.
No, I understand his reasoning.
He said Izak can only play 45 minutes, so if he brought him on at half-time and there was a potential extra time, then it would exceed his limits, he'd have to make an extra change.
Mo Salah played with an aggression, an energy, a frustration which we haven't seen in a while, so if he had started, would he have had that same aggression, same energy from the start?
Probably not.
I think the changes at half-time made the difference.
Cody Gakpo, especially with his link-up play in that second half, was crucial to everything Liverpool did, so...
I understand the frustration from the guys and the Liverpool fans, but I think he did the right thing.
He tried to go for pace.
He tried to go for directness.
He tried to go for that pressing ability off the ball.
But it just turns out there's only the second half.
Once he made those changes, the Liverpool started to see the joy.
I didn't say it was the right lineup.
I said I understood Schlott's reasoning that starting him for 45 minutes might have been better than bringing him on and potentially have to make another offensive change and bring him off if there was extra time.
I think the problem is, Stephen, and I don't know if you agree, I think Slot was probably expecting this season to have more possession, more domination, so you can get the players like Florian Wurz more into the game like PSG do.
I don't think it's worked out that way in the way that he would have hoped.
And Wurz is on the fringes.
