I was anti Sarri in summer because I hate tiki taka and anything related to just pass pass pass. But we are in this now and the club better stick up with it for 2 more seasons. I hate how we play right now, but they made the decision to get this manager and change style. It will take time. 

Just dont fucking abandon ship because it will end up in a even bigger mess. Maybe Sarri will fly out the window if he keeps managing like that, but we should continue with attacking managers for 3 seasons and see where we end up.

Nothing wrong with getting a different manager to change the style but I don't think we've signed up for one who is extremely stubborn.

What even is the style? Pass pass pass.. That's it! No end product just a lot of possession, odd shot and dropped points

Pep is stubborn as fuck and so is klopp they both needed time. Yet we expect it to happen over night it's ridiculous.

But do they stick with the same formation, tactics when they aren't working? Do they stick with under-performing players? No. People are confusing this whole Sarri being stubborn thing with his style but that's not the case. We are so predictable that Mourinho practically laid out the plan to stop us on beIN yesterday and every team have basically been doing that for the past few months!

This is the issue there is no Plan B. If things don't work for one game we just carry on with it for the next game. With similar result.

this is not his style of football

to play his football he needs something that there isn't at the moment: a striker

In short yes they stick to what they no. I get your point and I understand where your coming from but what could are plan b actually be? Barkley drink water? Zappacosta? Willian and Pedro should be plan b but atm they are plan A cos we just don't have the squad. Ppl say change formation...... we still don't have strikers that the managers trusts so how will that help? Am not arguing am keen to no my self.

Exactly mate. We dont have any good depth TO be able to use a plan B! All we have is like for like swaps. Nobody to bring in to offer a new option, intensity - nothing.

Before we even get to Plan B, why don't we talk about Sarri's stubbornness to stick with 4-3-3? Why not change it to 4-2-3-1, mix things a little and see how it goes? Sarri wants to play attacking football, that's fine but there are more ways than one to go about executing it. Problem is, Sarri only sees one way of executing it and that is giving us serious issues right now. 

Gosh, is it really hard to ask for a manager who can make us play decent, watchable football (doesn't have to be tippy-tappy stuff!) and also be flexible at the same time?!

I agree with u pal I just can't blame sarri yet he needs more time

Gonzalo is a big character. He will come in and slap the shit out of some of these donkeys in the dressing room. Can't wait.

[lucio 5,418]

if he can start firing, we will at least have some chance of finishing 4th/3rd and winning the europa

Ummmm. Lovren, Mignolet, Moreno, Henderson got about 2 years worth of chances before Klopp stopped starting them all the time.
