I so agree with you. I've said this for years.
Also, if Konate comes across it leaves another attacker wide open for the ball to be squared to once Mbuemo receives it. Konate does the right thing and stays with his man just in case a ball comes across.

The fella had a season or two where he looked top quality but as usual with them it’s not enough he has to be the ‘greatest ever ‘ so they go on and on about it and then they don’t back down they double down .
It’s in their DNA
The United game summed him up , just like when Beto bullied him

All he's done since leaving them is talk about them. Massively disrespectful to Slot

not really, Slot came into a side that Klopp had built over 10 years, and a brand new midfield that won the league, all he had to do was strengthened in 2 places, an aging Salah and a Konate replacement, they curiously booted 'robbo' out for a weird lad from bournemouth who cant tackle and only has one leg. Bought two strikers and neither of them can play with salah, and Wirtz is being asked to chase the ball back from areas he isn't familiar with.

Just what slot needs , can’t imagine these two sharing an erdinger any time soon with the timing and content of these interviews
Get on the fella bottom right, looks like an apprentice glass blower

Liverpool are set to be reminded by the Premier League of its rules on multi-ball, following multiple breaches of the system during their defeat to rivals Manchester United.
Under regulations introduced in 2022, balls are positioned on tees around the pitch with players expected to pick them up and ball boys and girls not permitted to hand them over.
However, on several occasions after Harry Maguire had given the visitors a late lead at Anfield, ball attendants lobbed the ball to Liverpool players as they chased an equaliser.
The rule extends to coaching staff and those in the technical areas, but Liverpool manager Arne Slot also threw the ball to one of his players as the clock approached 90 minutes and United closed in on a shock victory.
On two occasions, two balls were spotted on the field of play as the visitors held on for an unexpected three points.
The rules were brought in to speed up play, but came with warnings that the system should not be abused.
In August, Aston Villa were fined £125,000 after accepting they broke the multi-ball regulations in no fewer than five matches last season.
A report found that ball boys and girl handed the ball to Villa players on several occasions rather than following protocol and leaving them to collect them from the cones.
Indeed, extra balls were positioned in some matches for Villa players taking corners and on one occasion a ball was thrown onto the pitch when a visiting goalkeeper was already holding a ball ahead of restarting play with a goal-kick.
Daily Mail Sport understands that Liverpool not expected to be hit with a similar fine, given Villa were targeted for multiple and continued breaches. A reminder of the rules is the most likely outcome.
It is also thought that Manchester United did not issue a complaint, but that eyes were raised among the travelling delegation from Old Trafford.
The Premier League declined to comment but in similar instances clubs are often reminded of the need to respect and abide by the system. Liverpool also declined to comment.
Along with the fine, Villa were banned from operating the multi-ball system in its first three home Premier League matches of this season.

The bit about their players always having to be the greatest ever is spot on.
At one stage 5 or 6 years ago they apparently had the best CB, goalie, both RB and LB, central midfielder, at least one of the best 2 wingers in the world and the best centre forward. Crazy how city were somehow winning the lot at that time in spite of this.
