I blame the media they create a narrative & for some reason some fans fall for it. Some Tottenham fans can't wait to put the boot in because some clown in the media writes some garbage story. Ignore it people it's all nonsense

It's a sad reflection on "journalism" that social media lead the way and the main stream of media take them as a source for their content. We should all realise the internet sites on football are mainly products of delusional fans or clickbait to generate cash. They are just peoples opinions and should carry as much credence as my mates mums hairdresser on the subject.

The press are beginning to turn on Slot, which is particularly surprising as its Liverpool.

Why Liverpool have turned into a dysfunctional mess

It is bizarre that Arne Slot has abandoned title-winning formula and making the top four would be a success now

When a celebrated artist stares at his own work for too long, there is a danger they become blinded to the inherent beauty and become fixated on the blemishes.

Arne Slot, alongside the rest of Liverpool’s much-applauded football department, may reflect that he is guilty of undermining and underplaying his own work as he surveys the wreckage of a fourth-consecutive Premier League defeat. He would be well advised to show himself and the team that was tweaked so magnificently last season the respect he and it deserves.

It is hard to recall any championship-winning side demonstrating such disregard for how they actually won it.

Getting “back to basics” as Slot suggested on Saturday night, ought to begin with dusting down the 2024-25 blueprint and making Liverpool tough to beat again – playing as a team rather than a collection of individuals.

The speed of change is dizzying, not just with personnel but in the morphing of a well-organised, confident and perfectly choreographed unit into the incoherent, dysfunctional mess that was outrun, out-tackled, outmuscled and out-thought by Brentford.

Just another team going through a bad run. I remember similar doomsday articles during Emirates Marketing Project’s bad run, funnily enough almost at the same time last year.

Five losses in a row: Are Manchester City officially in crisis?

Pep Guardiola's Emirates Marketing Project suffer their fifth straight loss in all competitions, which poses another question: are they in crisis mode?
www.espn.com.au www.espn.com.au

When does a blip become a crisis? Emirates Marketing Project's losing run went from four games to five against Tottenham Hotspur, who won 4-0 at the Etihad Stadium in a blistering display of counter-attacking football.

With players back from injury and doubts about manager Pep Guardiola's future put to bed with a new contract, the international break was supposed to be something of a reset for City. Instead, Spurs exposed the champions' defensive vulnerability -- thanks in large part to a majestic performance from Dejan Kulusevski -- while Erling Haaland had an off day at the other end.

It's too early to write off Guardiola's team in a title race that hasn't even started, but the Catalan coach is now further into uncharted territory.

Never before has he lost five consecutive games as a manager, and never before has he lost three straight Premier Leaguegames as City boss. They're not quite the records he's used to setting.
