@rob, you are right. But it would t be the end of the world as long as we are improving as a team, players are settling and the foundation in set for the following season. Look at Arteta, its taken him 4-5 seasons to win the title, some of those seasons he didnt even make top 4.

3rd September 2026 at 2:27 pm #255666@threeps thats fine, so if you boys can see it im sure iraola can too, what with all his football acumen + the 250mill outlay it should be a quick fix and league title here we come.

3rd September 2026 at 2:36 pm #255668You do know Slot was sacked don’t you? You also realise that I wasn’t the one that made that decision? Why was that do you think?

3rd September 2026 at 2:45 pm #255671Yeah i know you never sacked slot you charles and theres many factors and targets he didnt meet and thus sackedโฆ one of those targets would be not challenging for the title, or kore importantly for me, not utilising the squad as a whole.
So with Iraola coming in and more money spent you would expect the same scrutiny that slot received(in a transitional year)โฆ so expectations should be that iraola at least challenges for the title? Right?
And while weโre at it, whats your expectations from iraola this season after being the BIGGEST net spenders in an already crazy window(tottenham, chelsea and city addidng players).

3rd September 2026 at 2:48 pm #255673Asian the only thing Slot did right during his time here was not to mess with anything until we won the title, he was not in control for that season, it was the players that directed our tactics up until the moment we won the title and Salah and Van Dijk extended their contracts.
After that moment everything went downhill under Slot, who tried to force his tactics on the team while being found out be the whole league.

So we couldve put a monkey in charge and he would have won us the title yeah?

3rd September 2026 at 2:56 pm #255678“You charles” is that some sort of name themed insult? You Richard.
My expectations of Iraola is to slowly repair the damage by Slott by upping the intensity and fitness and reduce the backwards passing, the latter we can already see. But with such glaring holes in the team I’d expect fighting for 3rd.

3rd September 2026 at 3:05 pm #255681Haha Cheers for the reply threepsโฆ those holes were there all last season thats why i complained straight after the crazy window of last season, but lets leave it at that.
We had no expectations on slot when he came in, maybe that helped in winning the title with less pressure, and im hoping thats the same with iraola.
We have so many top exceptional/world class players in the team. We just need to start winning games and hopefully the ipswich game will be the catalyst for iraola to get his first win.

3rd September 2026 at 3:10 pm #255682yes a monkey or a complete yes man like Slot is, he cared more about DJing in Ibizia with Rooney than to celebrate with his squad. That should tell you everything about the character!

3rd September 2026 at 3:26 pm #255684@notorious bloodyhell you maybe on to something, we should just hire a โyes manโ every season, he wins the title for us, we fire him and rinse and repeat. Every one will be happy, youre an absolute genius my brother!

3rd September 2026 at 4:12 pm #255686he had no authority at the club, he was parked next to the Manchester airport to take a quick tour back home, I donยดt think he talked to one youth player during his time. One of the most obnoxious head coaches we have ever had. The only right decision he made was not to touch the formula that was working for us until he thought he had become the 2nd coming. He started alienating the fanbase the same week we won the title, thatยดs how big of ego the man has.

4th September 2026 at 10:41 am #255731I admit that I saw energy in Chiesa in the beginning of last season (if I remember correctly) and hoped he could perform better than a deflated Salah.
That doesnโt take away the fact that I think we need to replace โgoodโ Salah and not the version last year – as you seem ok with._____________________________

4th September 2026 at 12:56 pm #255742Chiesa was player of the month for us back in December I think, got called up to Italy, broke down again and limped out of the Italy squad and then hardly played more minutes for us for the rest of the season except one game in January. I think he looks like a 40 year old baller right now. He has only finished twice a full game for us. He is emergency cover in the league and nothing else for 150k a week.

4th September 2026 at 11:13 pm #255846Yes, so my argument against Asianโs very weak point stands. Canโt see any reason heโs remotely close to being right.

4th September 2026 at 11:44 pm #255849I think asian studies this forum more than actual football, he never states anything except having watched a game beforehand after it got scheduled and then he tries to point out anyone wrong on the forum. We got a few posters that can actually spot a player from a mile off, we got another few posters that can predict a season than the vast majority predicts the lineup after having 20 notifications about who is injured and who is not.

5th September 2026 at 12:16 pm #255878Richard Hughes has left Liverpool.
Got to thank him for recruiting Slot though and winning us the Premier League title totally out of the blue and highly unexpectedly. Hope he’s right about Iraola also.
His overconfidence got the better of him though, spending ยฃ240m on Isak and Wirtz, as it’s taken Isak over one year to even get going at Liverpool, while Wirtz hasn’t even truly got started for a ยฃ116m player.
Thanks for the league title, at least.
