Been away last week, so doing abit of catch-up here.
UCL Final.
As stated the worse thing that happened was Arsenal scoring early. Contemplated turning it off there and then as I knew the game was going to be killed as Arsenal would then just play not to lose, time waste etc. Took three people to take a throw in (and well over a minute) and then taking as much time as possible to take the corner , then look hard done by when the ref had enough and blew for half-time. Something the refs will look into next season. A rule coming in for the World Cup where they have 5 seconds to take throw in etc, along with no Goalkeeper tactical timeouts (Raya with his cramp for example, how does a keeper get cramp?).
You can look all that up. LINKY POO™ https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c9v39x2v8yxo
If Saka’s basketball dribble wasn’t a penalty then the “foul” on Maduke wasn’t either (neither were pen’s for me btw), the fact Mendy got his arm in front of Maduke probably saved him there.
IMO, Football won on Saturday.
Liverpool/Slot.
It had to happen. The football being displayed was awful. Massive disconnection from the fans by the end of the season. The fact there were teams worse than us got us into the Champions League place and even then, that was because English teams got 5 slots.
No Liverpool manager should lose 20 games in a season.
The only people I’ve seen saying it was the wrong decision have been fans of other clubs. A bit like Liverpool fans saying Man Utd should never had got rid of Solskjaer/Ten Haag/Amorim.
Would it have been different if say he had last season’s performances in his first season and then won the league in his second? Of course but, we became too easy to play against.
It’s a tough job whoever comes in. Lot's of work to be done throughout the club.
All my personal opinion of course.

Penalty? Nonsense. The foul was on the PSG player. Your goal came from a free kick as a result of a Saka dive. First 8 minutes 3 dives from Arsenal, Tossard, Saka and Skelly. How come Skelly was still on the pitch after giving away the penalty? Should have had a second yellow. Yet another example of Arsenal's immunity from red cards.

I'm not saying it's a good tactic but the goal conceded was from a penalty rather from open play.
We should've had one ourselves but at the end of the day we shouldn't rely on refs to be consistent.
I don't think it put off people attending the Arsenal parade. Reported to be the biggest in UK sporting history.
Not to be outdone PSG celebrated in the their own way in Paris

The worst thing that early Havertz goal, how can any team think they can defend 1 goal for that long....never going to happen. I almost said Arsenal played well but PSG were average at best but no doubt they'll be tammed down our throats as one of the greatest.
Fergies not been so kind about Arsenal when congratulating PSGs owners

Really pisses me off when the European sides get a penalty ffs, they play for them 
To be fair they were the best footballing side but the Gunners did a solid job, could have gone either way that, obviously I wanted the English club

Way too soon. Got to give a bloke a chance. Yes he won the league with Klopps team but times move and new teams have to be built. If you look at the stats for the first 100 games he's ranked 2nd behind Dalgleish, Klop is way down. I like Iriola, I hope he pursues his dream with Bilboa and turns Liverpool down.

I think sacking Slot is a bit premature, Iraola lined up apparently.
Getting ahead of themselves by thinking they should be doing better, 5th was respectable.
