There are rumours szlob isn’t happy at the club. Obviously probably a load of rubbish but I am glad it is not some of the other players. We would be fine without Szlob I even think Elliot is better imo. Szlob has been non existent for a while now.
1.) 03 Apr 2024 19:44:07
I heard the rumours last week. Szlob was brilliant when he first signed but he got played every min of every game due to injuries and suspensions of others can’t blame him for being fatigued and getting injured. Next season is the time to judge him ( if he still here) and I don’t agree on the Elliot shout.
2.) 03 Apr 2024 20:00:16
Weren't you saying the same thing about Mac Allister a couple of months ago?
3.) 03 Apr 2024 20:33:01
I’m calling bs on it all . Like when we played real in the champions league always story’s of salah leaving on the weeks prior .
4.) 03 Apr 2024 21:13:22
It was an April fools on twitter.
5.) 03 Apr 2024 21:58:46
What reasons would he have to be unhappy?
6.) 03 Apr 2024 23:36:49
Ridiculous. Szbo hasn't stood out as he did at the start of the season but he is playing well. Full of energy and pressing. I would imagine a new manager may play him as a more creative type but he is doing what he is asked in his role to a really high ability.
Elliot is also a great option to have but why does it have to be one or the other? Both excellent players to have in our squad.
7.) 04 Apr 2024 06:31:20
Spot on Z9 - he plays footy for a living so wouldn’t have any cares in the world.
8.) 04 Apr 2024 07:08:25
Still waiting for a sensible post from the "former scout".
9.) 04 Apr 2024 12:09:31
Klopp is playing him out of position and on a short leash at the moment.
For me the big question is what will happen when Trent returns from injury. He doesn't defend like Bradley and prefers to come into midfield.
Salah, Bradley and Big Mac have a good understanding going down the right hand side, creating triangles and making space, where does Trent play now?
Instead of Domo who runs up and down the pitch all game? I don't think so.
Has Trent become a rotational player for the rest of the season?
Go ahead abuse me :)
10.) 04 Apr 2024 12:33:53
I think Trent has to fight his way back into the team rather than assume he will just play.
15 Oct 2023 09:39:43
Rumours surfacing again of interest in Leroy Sane do we know if he looking to move on from Bayern? Also have we had any interest in Pedro Neto he would be my number one choice if he can have a season without any injury looks like he is ready for a step up. Obviously scratching my head about who could possibly replace Salah.
1.) 15 Oct 2023 16:21:38
Would rather rumours about a Qatar takeover talked about if I’m honest.
2.) 15 Oct 2023 18:43:42
Really, you’d want a Qatar takeover?
God some of our fans are weird.
3.) 15 Oct 2023 19:38:17
The issue with Sane seems to be attitude - sounds like Mane.
He is going to be 28.
Maybe Klopp thinks an older head is needed to help all of the youngsters? Would make sense.
Let’s see what transpires….
4.) 15 Oct 2023 22:28:12
Sane isn’t an older wiser head, he’s a disruptive influence and given his unsavoury remarks he said to Sadio Mane (which ended up in Sane getting beat down), he’s not a particularly pleasant person. I’m sure there’s multiple better options than him.
5.) 16 Oct 2023 10:52:50
Hi Victor! *waves* long time no moan.
6.) 16 Oct 2023 18:17:16
Don't want Sane or a quatar takeover tbh.

£250m from the lads with the oil and sign Mbappe.
8.) 16 Oct 2023 13:24:48
@Zed, so you are saying he’s 27 ?. To put it into context, he’s 2 years older than Trent and 5 years younger than VVD.
9.) 16 Oct 2023 19:43:30
This is a really good question. If the sheik’s who pulled out of United came in for an offer to buy LFC would you be for or against a bid? And probably a? For eds2 do you know if they are still looking at buying a premier league club?
{Ed002's Note - There are no offers from Liverpool from Sheik Yerbouti.}

WDW, you have cunningly seen through my numerical linguistics ?.
11.) 16 Oct 2023 22:45:14
Don’t see why anyone is weird for wanting FSG out the club they’ve taken LFC as far as they can and we are grateful but it’s time serious mo eh was invested in the squad before other teams leave us behind.
God some LFC fans are such dinosaurs.
12.) 17 Oct 2023 02:24:12
Who said it was weird @White? Are you making stuff up to add credence to your desire to spend ‘serious money’?
As it stands we are 3 points off the top of the table and we’re robbed of at the very least one point by the FA’s own admission. Again are you using fiction to support your opinion that we should spend for the sake of it?
13.) 17 Oct 2023 17:12:48
Zed, are you therefore saying that WDW is a cunning-linguist? ?
(I'm amazed you didn't catch it the first time) .
14.) 18 Oct 2023 09:00:13
the issue seems to be attitude - sounds like Mane'
WHAT?!
What on earth was wrong with Mane? literally left everything on the pitch, led the press, and became one of our all-time top scorers playing from wide. and performed at the highest level for 6 seasons. I just don't get some people.
Also, a Qatar take over would have me supporting Hull City. I would be done.
15.) 18 Oct 2023 11:41:53
Fingers crossed for a big money take over, this is the football world, not real world, we need that money.
16.) 18 Oct 2023 20:05:25
Problem being eventually the top 6 clubs in the prem will be owned by oil rich billionaires meaning million pound a week wages and 500m transfers and refs on 10m a year. Sounds dodgy? Refs in the oil nation states on mega money. Hmm yeah that won't happen.

That was a dog ugly performance and it seemed like all they wanted to do was pass between each other at the back again. I seriously could not watch much more of that type of football and I agree that the nutty professor Lijnders has something to do with this awful style of football. Next season will be a breath of fresh air without him.
Klopp is great, but has let someone else sour his thoughts and it shows. That was the opposite of heavy metal football that seems to be a distant memory. But a good memory at least. I look forward to a improved style of football next year with excitement. I am sure we might get a forward who could Slot the ball in the back of the net also ??.
1.) 25 Apr 2024 08:22:00
Ljinders should have been sacked after releasing his book - nothing about that was in anybody’s interest except his own. The less said about his tactical ideas the better.
2.) 25 Apr 2024 08:25:54
You are missing a very important point about midfielders. Our midfeidlers cannot run forward with the ball nor they can dribble to take a man. Everton played a low block and there was hardly any gaps. In such cases you either need your wide players to hit the byline or your central midfielders to run with the ball. Gravenberch for all his issues could do it.
Usually in klopp's whatever system the LCM is tasked to do this (keita / wijnaldum / thiago) Jones simply cannot. and Szobo is asked to play a DM rather than an ACM today.
3.) 25 Apr 2024 08:31:27
More scout spout.
4.) 25 Apr 2024 08:44:23
Exactly, Flash. How can the players do all these things the "Chief Scout" is going on about without even being ready to fight, scrap and earn the right to compete in a Merseyside derby. No matter how much ability you have, if you are not up for it the way Everton was, whatever qualities you have or don't have, won't matter. That is is the fundamentals of sport. No guts. No glory, all your ability be damned.
5.) 25 Apr 2024 08:51:34
I don't think we won anything playing heavy metal (cringe) football. We scored and conceded a lot of goals and it was thought to be unsustainable.
We became more pragmatic and won the League and CL. The midfield were disciplined but could win the ball and hold onto it. The front three could win the ball high up the field and create goals or break from our half and score goals.
We also had two very creative fullbacks one of whom had a terrific engine.
That team inevitably broke but let's not kid ourselves that it was the heavy metal side that Klopp had earlier in his Liverpool career.
6.) 25 Apr 2024 09:26:46
We reached the CL final twice and won the league playing heavy metal football, and had one bad season in between, what have we done since shifting to this possession based, inverted fullback nonsense? A league cup. I know which I’d rather win, I know which system would suit our players, and I know which system I’d rather watch.
7.) 25 Apr 2024 10:07:13
There’s 2 things I’ve noticed since the Man Utd game in particular.
Firstly we are scared to give the ball away so always play safe to the point where the forward players have stopped making runs because they know they won’t get the ball.
Secondly we are not winning the ball back quickly enough when we lose it.
We have been playing with fear and that has made us very twitchy on the ball and very passive off it. The defence drop too early which makes us way too open to press effectively and even when we do we are so passive that we lose pretty much every tackle.
Added to that we are so tense and fearful that we miss pretty much every chance we do create. People will point to Nunez and Salah and rightly so but it’s everyone. Robbo actually missed the ball completely when presented with a chance, Szob used to have a rocket on his right boot but scuffs every shot now, VVD has had numerous free headers and either misses the target or heads it to the keeper, Diaz, Jones, MacAllister they have all forgotten how to hit a clean strike. Trent tried to reach the kop end goal from Goodison with a couple of his efforts last night.
The criticism they are all getting is warranted, the performances have not been good enough but writing these players off as not good enough is extremely knee jerk and shows a total lack of understanding of human and sports psychology.
It’s not that they are not good enough, they have just realised the enormity of what they could achieve and they’ve frozen with the fear of failure. It happens every day in every sport and these players will be stronger for having these type of experiences.
I’m disappointed just like everyone else but I appreciate what Klopp and the players have put in this season to give us a trophy and a title challenge. It’s all gone a bit wrong but we dust ourselves down and we go again.
8.) 25 Apr 2024 10:09:07
We didn't win the League and CL final playing heavy metal football, Seano.
The season we won the League we would selectively press but could also be quite conservative. Henderson, Milner and Wijnaldum would just sit in front of the back four knowing the front three could always get a goal with our fullbacks often supplying them.
Think back to the CL win. It was a boring game. We got an early goal and sat in with the intention of not conceding.
It was not heavy metal football.
9.) 25 Apr 2024 11:41:42
Beekeeper is right in my opinion. Too many of our midfielders and forwards look scared to carry the ball so we're not committing any of the opposition players. If you don't run at teams and make them step out to meet you, all you end up doing is passing it around in front of a banked up defence and midfield. Macca and Endo don't have the pace, but Szoboszlai and Jones are just scared to take a hit in my opinion after their injuries. Diaz drops in and does it but he lacks end product. Elliott, Gakpo and Gravenberch made a huge difference against Fulham without even playing that well purely because they were willing to take the ball under pressure, then turn and run at people. Elliott running at Wan-Bissaka saved us in the United draw.
Unless you are extremely well drilled in passing patterns like City and Arsenal are, you can't pass your way through the midfield. You have to use the width, which we can't do with Trent tucked infield and Robertson not only unable to beat the first man with a cross, but twice last night dropping total air shots and missing the ball entirely.
No width and a badly implemented slow build up tactic is costing us. Eliott, Gakpo, Diaz and Gravenberch running at people is pretty much all we have right now which is extremely worrying. They should all be starting every game between now and the end of the season. And personally I'd be putting Danns up top with those 4 supplying him because Salah and Nunez have blown enough games for us this month.
10.) 25 Apr 2024 12:03:31
Beckers, that's what hitting a wall get you. U lack the confidence to try things hence cos you bare so scared to screw up, you eithe rplay it safe or play the extra pass in attack which can look like you passing the buck and then, nothing happens. The lack of confidence in the team leads to lack of certainty and belief hence, a distinct lack of fight vs Everton.
11.) 25 Apr 2024 12:06:35
Seano, I'm with Rigsby here. We won the PL and CL playing pragmatic football meaning, we did not press high like demons from the off. We would gradually grow into the game and slowly pin the oppo. back and once we did that esp. vs low block teams, we started to choke the life out of them cos they could NEVER get out of their final third. In fact, we beat Spurs playing that way in the CL final.
IMO, Heavy metal footie, is what killed us in the 17/ 18 season when our legs were finished going into the CL final esp. cos we did not have anywhere near as deep as a squad like we did in 21/ 22 when we went and nearly won everything.
24 Apr 2024 08:45:59
So many terrible strikers around at the moment they just don’t make em like they used to. Clinical finishing is a dying art it seems. Close your eyes and hope for the best is the new normal.
1.) 24 Apr 2024 08:59:38
That Jackson attempted header vs arsenal in first half was comical.
2.) 24 Apr 2024 10:28:53
Nunez will still be the only one criticised in the media though.
3.) 24 Apr 2024 12:55:55
ShipleyKopite, that's cos Nunez plays for LFC and we all know talking down on LFC players drives clicks. Let me introduce you to Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Jackson? Who da football cares about some bange average forward playing for an irrelevant team like Chelsea? That don't sell papers, man. Nunez hits the post, it's news for a week.
22 Apr 2024 08:00:36
Scout note - Liked the look of Traore of Wolves last night, great hair, lovely long legs. But seriously, looked a tidy player and in a position we need, as does Nouri. They seem to find a few gems at Wolves along with Hwang Neto Cunha.
1.) 22 Apr 2024 09:13:01
Can’t be finding too many gems tho as I can’t think of too many of their players that moved to bigger clubs and been successful so far.

Can Nouri play wither wingback position? tidy player that.
3.) 22 Apr 2024 09:58:34
Ait Nouri is a quality left back. We should be considering him.
20 Apr 2024 21:41:06
What do we do with the ridiculously poor performances of Szlob? Offers nothing in a game and gives the ball away needlessly more than any player I can remember playing for us. I doubt he will become what people has hoped for like so many of our players including Nunez and Gakpo who are both a real let down since signing for us. 3 footballers who have proved nothing so far and need to show that there is footballer in each of these players deep down somewhere.
If I was Harvey Elliot and these 3 guys were starting ahead of me, I would be fuming. Hopefully, the next manager will appreciate Elliot more and can see how much better he is than most players in the squad.

6.) 21 Apr 2024 03:28:43
Blame the coaching staff if you’re unhappy with Szoboszlai’s performances. They are the ones tasking him with being an all-action midfielder, running around like a border collie on Red Bull. Szoboszlai has so much technical quality yet Klopp seems to have had a Henderson replacement in mind when signing him.
Szoboszlai needs to be reasonably close to goal making things happen, not running up and down the pitch 73 times a game just because we can’t control a match properly.
7.) 21 Apr 2024 08:47:31
?? fair play thunderbird that one tickled me.
8.) 21 Apr 2024 09:14:13
Well sob was fantastic as an 8 at the beginning of the season. He has the legs and energy so it's a great asset to have that side of his game to be compared to Henderson. He'll I'm sure improve under say amorim and we'll have back our rolls Royce.

10.) 21 Apr 2024 10:10:22
I've been critical of Szoboszlai but the OP sums up the dogma often seen on social media. I've also seen Szob described as the new Gerrard.
11.) 21 Apr 2024 13:11:58
Shlob has real quality, we've all seen that. I agree that he is being shoehorned into a poor tactical set up that does not play to his strengths. For as wonderful as his technique is, he is such a powerful player, loves doing the hard yards. Unfortunately the coaches have noticed this and have been relying on him to prop up their ridiculous and unsustainable style of play.
Honestly, I can see him being an excellent Salah replacement. I think he'd work well on the right side of a front three in Amorim's 343. Could even do a job at wing back if it came down to it. He's a wonderful prospect with ridiculous potential, we are lucky to have him. I just don't think the state of affairs at this moment are flattering him.
12.) 21 Apr 2024 14:09:35
100%, AW - he is a superb athlete but his real gift is his quality. He has the exact qualities that make De Bruyne such a devastating player - speed, aggression, awesome shot power with both feet, vision - though he obviously has a lot of work ahead to become that good.
13.) 21 Apr 2024 14:33:46
Football is a funny old game and everyone sees the game differently I suppose.
I’ve watched Szob live recently and whilst he hasn’t been ripping up trees and has given possession away sometimes unnecessarily he’s still doing lots of good things and gets into lots of dangerous positions.
He gets criticised a lot for that but then I used to watch Hendo live do lots of pointing and shouting and rarely pass the ball forward and get lauded by the same fans that are in Szobs back.
14.) 21 Apr 2024 15:03:48
AW and LoweLFC, fully agree. if you asked KDB to do what Szobo is being asked to do, he would struggle as well cos his qullity on the ball, athleticism and ball-striking ability (which was his strength at RBL) are really good.
15.) 21 Apr 2024 15:10:53
It is a fact that the first time I saw Henry I asked my dad who that was as he looked class whilst still at Juve I was 13. And I did see Salah play against Chelsea for Basel and wanted him at Liverpool then and there. Some players it is quite obvious they have that something special. Didn’t think back then they would go on to be two of the best the Prem has ever seen. Remember though I also thought Macca was distinctly average so we all make mistakes.
16 Apr 2024 12:46:32
It’s quite clear for a while now that Salah has fallen off a cliff with performances. I don’t think he will be with us next season. Looks ready to wind down now and get a nice payday in an easy league. Obviously will be a struggle to replace though.
1.) 16 Apr 2024 13:05:11
I think before his hamstring injury at AFCON he was playing some of his best football since his first season with us. However since he's come back he looks really jaded. Probably a combination of aging legs, the injury lay off and returning whilst he was fasting.
Whatever the case, I think it's the right time to sell. I'm getting the same vibes that Mane was giving off in his last season. Numbers are still there but the performance is slowly declining and the pace/ power looks to be dissipating.
2.) 16 Apr 2024 13:42:54
A fantastic player but I agree, the time has come for him to leave us. I think we've all come to terms with this. A Liverpool legend in my eyes but he's not been right for a while now. I kept thinking he'd improve and somehow save us but he hasn't and more than likely won't so it's time to get what we can. It'll be best for us and for him to move on.
Next couple of years are going to be interesting but it'll be no walk in the park, huge changes are coming. We are losing our manager, top goalscorer, probably Diaz and god knows who else. We will need to be patient even though we won't be lol. After recent results I'm welcoming it though, bring it all on. Time to move forward, we have youngsters ready to shine, use them! I hope the new manager sees what quality he's got in them.
3.) 16 Apr 2024 15:53:14
MK Scouser, I thought so as well. Let's be real here and not try to act all surprised. Salah is near 32 years old. You have to be living under a record to believe he would not lose a step or even two. That said, he had been playing some of his best footie at the start of the season as he was top 2 in goalscoring in the PL in the first 3 months or so.
It seems that hamstring injury and the setback he had after he came back vs Brentford (where he had a great game) has stifled him a lot. Was he rushed too soon? I don't know BUT he does not look fit at all.
The guy is a legend and an absolute role model for young players in terms of his mentality, desire and footballing lifestyle. The absolute poster boy of how to make a great career out of one where nobody thought you would not get anywhere near one. However, it may be time to let him go. It is what it is.
4.) 16 Apr 2024 16:34:54
If I was living under any record it would be Another brick in the wall by Pink Floyd.
Salah getting badlyoutpaced when put through on Sunday was shocking to me even though its clear he had lost half a yard before this season started since the return from injury he's lost about half a dozen yards. He also doesn't seem to want to press or track back atm which is making our best player a bit of a liability currently. Need Mo back and firing for the last games. If he does leave it will be a sad day but what a player he has been for us.
5.) 16 Apr 2024 16:52:26
As soon as KnickerBollox writes one of our players off you know he'll come good.
Salah might be completely out of touch right now due to various things, but writing him off as finished is just pure knee jerk, Knickerbollox style.
6.) 16 Apr 2024 17:44:34
The scout 007 has spoken, he's finished.
7.) 16 Apr 2024 17:56:17
Maybe if you got off your high horse Flash, you’d be able to see what the rest of us are seeing, which is a player in decline. Can’t be easy watching it all the way up there.
Mo has been and is an absolute legend, the standards he has set are absolutely world class and he’s easily one of the greatest we’ve ever seen at the club.
Regrettably though time waits for no one and once the pace has gone it’s gone for good. Better to sell now and get as much as we can than to wait a year and hope that things change, because they won’t, we’d also then be left to replace without funds to adequately do it. Difficult decisions have to be made.
Salah will be difficult and expensive to replace because at his peak he was unplayable, pace, skill, goals and assists. Players like that don’t come a dime a dozen and we’ll need to sign someone around the 24 year old age bracket who is as consistent as he was in Italy when we signed him (29 goals in 65 Serie A appearances over 2 and a half seasons for Fiorentina and Roma was exceptionally good), who also has the ability to get to the next level of their development and become a world class player.

3-4 bad games ( by his standards) including 2 goals and an assist and he need selling…wow…. he’s come back from a fairly significant injury and is fasting and now he’s a busted flush. C’mon guys, he’ll be back amongst the goals this week and we’ll be raving about him. I think he’ll go this summer, purely as a financial decision from the club, considering his contract length and age, but I am far from happy about it and next year I guarantee you all will be too. The old adage you don’t know what you had till it’s gone, applies. He is mercurial genius, the beating heart of the last 5 years and he is, quite literally irreplaceable.
15.) 17 Apr 2024 07:04:03
I ain't blind Viktor, but I don't do knee jerk either. I don't need to lash out at players because we lost.
We don't see him in training every day, and we don't have any background on whether he's nursing injuries along.
Now I don't claim to be a judge of a player, but I don't see a player who was purring a few months ago suddenly needing to be got rid of because of a few ropey performances.
And I like my high horse just fine thanks!
16.) 17 Apr 2024 09:18:49
I think the increasing number of people who think now is the right time to let Salah go is at least in part a reaction to recent form and performances. No doubt he has been poor, almost anonymous, and in my opinion he shouldn't start the next match (es) . It's probably also fair to see he is no longer the player he was in the years that most people would consider his peak; when he scored goals out of nothing - be it mazy dribbles into the box or hose bending shots into the far corner. He doesn't really do either any more.
That said, he has had brief dips in form throughout his Liverpool career and always emerged and he is still, by some way, our top scorer this season even though he missed a large chunk with AFCON and injuries. I think he has developed and evolved his game to still deliver the G/ A in a different way. 23 goals + 13 assists in all comps probably puts him up there with the best in the league. Would most clubs get rid of their top scorer (granted there are a number of penalties in those stats) .
Perhaps the combination of new manager/ new approach, Salah no longer being at his absolute peak and the fact that silly money might be on the table if a move to Saudi is still possible, will mean that, on balance, the time is right for a move.

So replace Salah with a young, prime Salah, Vik?
If it was that easy we'd have done the same with Mane and Firminho, too.

We need serious investment this summer in replacing salah. If the right player is available spend the money.

Adeyemi from BVB's worth a shout.

This is said every single season without fail about Salah when he doesn’t score for a game or two and it’s proven wrong every single time.

Lack of pace could be a problem he is a bit of a lump who would rely on being in the right place at the right time and long distance shooting. Not Liverpool standard just yet but if he can master his movement and build up play ya never know. We currently have the second best striker in the world but a suitable understudy should be looked for. Gakpo is a midfielder end of.

Vinicius Jnr at Liverpool more dreaming like with Mbappe and Jude. We make players into stars we don’t sign ready made stars.

Is this a wind up Bastion?

He is not getting much game time at all he has been dropped for some shocking performances. Nowhere near good enough for Liverpool I would forget his name as you won’t be seeing it much at our end of the table.

If It is true that he wants to join Bayern over Liverpool then he is obviously not the man for us. I refuse to believe this though as only a mad man would turn down Liverpool FC.

Even though when I seen him play for Basel I knew he would be special. I did not expect the goal scoring machine he became. My dream then was that he would play for Liverpool one day, well he only went and did that and exceeded all expectations. It is sad when players lose their mojo his decline reminds me of Torres. Thanks for everything Mo you have been class. Now could you please leave and get us some money in the coughers so we can buy a player that has not forgotten how to play football.

I would sell all three Salah is past his best and barely resembles a footballer nowadays. I just can’t see the other two getting better than their current level which is not good enough. Get some money in if possible and try to find a striker that can strike.

The Everton players were certainly good at falling over last night? They had 11 Tom Daleys on the pitch and the ref in their back pocket. We were absolutely awful though and didn’t deserve anything from the game.

Is it because they have no fans so they are easier to handle during semi-finals and finals for the police? Probably saves money on crowd control too. Chelsea where the better side on the day unfortunately, I spoke it out loud when City got the winner that evil somehow always seems to come out on top in most cases. Especially in the modern world I doubt we would win a world war in this day and age as the enemy would just pay our leaders to throw in the towel. Money talks and is the root of all evil.

It is a fact that the first time I saw Henry I asked my dad who that was as he looked class whilst still at Juve I was 13. And I did see Salah play against Chelsea for Basel and wanted him at Liverpool then and there. Some players it is quite obvious they have that something special. Didn’t think back then they would go on to be two of the best the Prem has ever seen. Remember though I also thought Macca was distinctly average so we all make mistakes.
