My whole life I am a Feyenoord supporter. So that is now close to 54 years. Arne is one of our best coaches we ever had. He is loved and respected by supporters, players, staff, opponents, media and will be surely missed. You will get a great coach, give him love and support and you will love him too. All the best Arne, thank you for all you have done for Feyenoord.

I laughed at the "This Is Arne-field" headline before I realised it was from The Sun and now I hate it. Sorry,

I'm baffled at the way everyone keeps assuming Xabi would have succeeded at liverpool, and anyone else would be trash and fail.. truth is anyone taking over from Kloop has huge shoes to fill, and no one is guaranteed to succeed and immediately win us the title next season. No one even heard about Arne Slot until a couple of days ago, yet he's being written off before he even takes on the job. The reality is that regardless of which manager we got, there will have to be a period of adjustment.. we'll be a team in transition for a couple of years to come.. Welcome Arne Slot to LFC, YNWA ❤

@@paul-soundaffected Well mate, this team bottled the league with 10 games to go, so it’s not like he is starting from scratch, a title challenge is to be expected anything less questions will need to be asked. The reason why I say bottled and not lost the league is with the run in, we have lost 2 out of 4, lost 2 games all seasons and then we go and do that so it’s definitely a bottle job

People forget Liverpool overchieved this yr, will finish in 3rd place, and will compete next yr for Championship ⚽️ in Europe. Exciting in my humble opinion. We won 1 🏆 this season. Asernal who has played the best football this yr may not even win 1 🏆.

True. After the Crystal Palace loss I really felt as if the Klopp leaving announcement put more pressure on the team to go and win everything for him. If you'd have told me at the start of the season that this team with only Endo as a 6 ( no disrespect but he's no Fabinho/Rice/Palinha) would be in a title race, I'd say you must be out of your mind!

I'm so glad it's now over and we can get behind a new man. Jürgen has been incredible for us. He's won plenty of trophies and come so close at other times too. Hopefully we will remember all the good times and forget how things panned out over the last few weeks. Especially given what we might have thought this season could have been like back in August. It's been a rollercoaster. The end of last and the majority of this season was a great big climb, despite the small dips over the last 6-8 weeks, so I for one think we're doing pretty well, but too many of the players legs are gone - few down to age, mainly down to exhaustion and or spells of injury this season. Looking forward to seeing whether Arne Slot can replicate his own succces over here. Welcome to Anfield YNWA

Thanks as ever for your thoughtful content Lawrence.

Well said Lawrence !! 😊

Where have you been, mate? I checked him out early and I was quite optimistic. His trajectory has been pretty good. Till the preseason, I won't say a word.

Good to have you back! I agree that some players will leave this summer, wanting to try a new experience - Robertson & Salah perhaps, while others maybe moved on to fund new incomings. To your point, no-one knows who Slot will want to work with or bring in at this stage, so it's all guesswork and speculation. Having said all that, maybe it'll be worth having a video of an early Slot @ Anfield match in your back pocket... could come in handy further down the line 😊

Playing style is one thing.....having the cattle to execute your style is another. LFC need an overhaul up front and some at the back. We seem to always be unbalanced. Years ago we had a defence crisis. Then it was a midfield crisis, Now it's an attack crisis. We don't seem to address the team as a whole. We always seem to wait until we have a crisis before we fix it. I hope Slot is more ruthless in keeping a short leash on determine whether they're good enough whilst we suffer from the effects of them being rubbish....

@@ntartaris that's a different point. In retrospect, we are unbalanced up front in terms of quality. Nunez is still wasteful, Gakpo has been hot and cold, and Diaz looks good without contributing enough solid numbers. And then you have Jota who misses half the season, and Salah who's completely off the boil again post AFCON. But nobody, and I bet including yourself, said we were short on attacking options before the season began. All the talk was about midfield, and to a lesser extent the defence. We bought 3 midfielders (including missing out on two defensive mids), and used two defenders from the academy, both of whom went more than alright. There's nothing wrong with using academy talent to save money if you think they're capable. Barcelona have done this with Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Puyol and many more before and since. We don't need to break transfer records every summer to feel like a huge club. We know what we are and so does everyone else. I have some serious misgivings about the team's injury record, general tactical gameplan, and mentality in the most pressure cooker games and moments, but that has no connection with this idea that FSG are happy to let us be 'almost good enough'. Who else could and WOULD buy Liverpool and make us better? Outside of state-backed consortiums, and murky billionaires like Abramovich that could suddenly leave us in the lurch further down the track? Chelsea fans had fun with him, but they weren't careful with what they wished for, were they? That's what happens when you put the blinkers on and only see trophies.

Really good perspective. This is absolutely the right time for change, just at the tipping point when performance starts to drop and when there is some fatigue of a system that worked for years. The question you guys need to ask is what would happen in the next 3 seasons if Klopp stayed, would you see things begin to tapper down?

Well, another trip is about to start, lets see what it will bring

Thank you ynwa

My least favorite thing about football youtube is when people with a a certain follower count just know with 100% certainty a) what the club will do in the summer b) what the new manager will do c) whether it will be successful. We don't know. There are maybe 15 people in/around any club that "know," and even then it's a moving target with lots of factors. I appreciate your commentary on how it makes you feel and the emotions around the club you support. I've told you before, but it still holds true... it's refreshing to get out of the toxic banter culture.

☆Slot = Paisley 2.0, who was predicted by 99.9% of pundits to fail. He replaced Keegan (a la Salah) with Sir King Kenny & the reds won 4 UCL titles in 9 yrs. Slot will do the same or better as the 10 Kop-Kids Cup-Kings are amazing. Arne won the dutch title & cup w a team of no stars & who had been down in the dunps 4 decades. Slots win rate is an amazing 63%.

yes! agree.

You're just overthinking this. If Slot doesn't work out, they will just find someone else next season. This guy is a risk free option during this transition. But if he does well, why not. YNWA ❤

In Michael Edwards I truly trust as his record has proven since he has been in charge before he left he brought in Mo and Mane that Klopp did not want and boy did Edwards prove he was right in signing these players. Klopp will be always be one of Liverpool’s greatest manager’s and without him we wouldn’t be where we are today. Now the Klopp era has come to an end so we have to trust Michael Edwards and lets get behind Slot because we have a fantastic squad of players and I cannot wait to see Slot’s first game for Liverpool. So roll on the new season YNWA

I agree with pretty much all you say in this ramble, except I do think there are fractures within the team. It is very sad to see but it is the way it is.

Lawrence looks 10x better with the hair cut oh my god

I like the fact that Slot has arrived under the radar. Unknown to many but clear thecresult of hard analysis from those hiring. He seems part of thr new mgmt wave... Alonso has won the German league with a team outside of thd main teams in thr league, Amorim has donevthe same in Portugal with Braga/Sporting and Slot has done it with Feyenoord. All brought huge success to the fans of clubs that, ordinarily, arent in title conversation. His personality looks a great fit. Let's see ehere this ride takes us. My main hope us that we are patient and don't end up in a managerial revolving door like some other clubs after an icon leaves

I feel optimistic for the future.

Imagine being a new manager of one of the world’s biggest teams, gifted with an opportunity to win the Champions League!

How is a high tempo game sustainable over the premier league season? we run ragged and then fall of in the later half of the season

We (Feyenoord supporters) did not wanted him to go! But we knew quite quickly that our new coach would not stay forever, as he is so good, that soon enough a team will just buy him away. That is the fate of players and coaches in the Netherlands. When you are good, you are easily sold as we are like a cheap market. If you look good you can buy great things at bargain prices. We never can compete with the big leagues, with their big money. Bye Arne, we loved you, we will miss you and show those poms that they have hit a jackpot without knowing. Good luck Arne, show them!

Let's go Slot

The only players that I think are must-keeps are Virgil, Trent, Jota and Alisson. Salah can go, he's past his best, and we could do with the Saudi cash so that the new manager can rebuild. We need refreshing up front. I think Diaz still has a way to go with Liverpool, but I'm not so sure the same can be said for Nunez, I just don't think he's good enough. Which is a shame because I like him, but the amount of sitters he's missed is inexcusable as a Liverpool player, and I don't feel he can get much better.

I feel like we should hire Ronaldhinio for last few games so that our players can feel some joy seeing the legend and maybe he helps our forwards to find some creativity and astute decision making at the frontlines.

He uses all of his wingers every game. I expect them to rotate a lot.

I find it Interesting that Klopp announced his resignation on the 26th of January and 4 months later, on the 26th of April, with 4 games before his era ends News of the club's agreement to sign Slot started circulating. Maybe a numerologist can reveal what that means, and the 'LO' in betwixt Klopp and Slot. However, Tears or Triumphs in this NEW SLOT of the club's history LFC blood will always be red and it's heartbeat for each of us YNWA.

I was scared you’d go into the bunker for a few weeks with this miserable form. I have mixed feelings but curious to see how the transition goes

Klopp legacy is this he’s like Shankly a Spiritual leader for both club and Liverpool etc etc etc and I think Slot is gone be more Bob Paisley like in that he’s gone win a lot more titles cups etc . Since both Shankly and Klopp did Win as much as they should but instead they brought something else to both club and Liverpool the City which is Not defined by Titles and Cups whereas Bob Paisley and am hoping Slot bring lot more Titles/Cups.
