Haven't posted on here for yonks
even though I check the rumours, banter and sightings twice a day, BRILLIANT
Absolutely worship klopp, obviously and so sad to see him go
WHAT A BRILLIANT HUMAN BEING and the only one we could ever compare to the great bill Shankly
Although the jurgen said to me yeno is a great song, even if we did get told off for singing it, i feel we should pay him the utmost? respect and acolade and sing jurgen jurgen jurgen jurgen to the tune of amazing grace as we do with Shankly
Imagine the last home game and four ends of the ground all singing this and shedding tears of course, what an emotional day that will be
Just a thought.

The only one to compare to shanks, what about Paisley and Kenny?

Kenny's selfless leadership in the wake of Hillsborough puts him right up there for me, regardless of the football. Ultimately, it appeared to break him in the end, such a shame. Glad he is rightly still adored by the club and the city.
My first girlfriend used to babysit Kenny's kids and so I met him a couple of times. Scared the crap out of me when he walked in and I'm knecking a young Sharon on his couch.

Not sure if it’s been asked already. Looking for opinions on this season? I’m Torn between the Feeling it’s been an absolute anticlimax or it’s been a decent season with a trophy and coming 3rd in the league is a true representation of where we’re at as a squad. Or has klopp set such high standards that 3rd and a trophy leaves a feeling of under achieving?! Heads a mess!

My feeling is that it's slightly disappointing at the most, but hardly an absolute anticlimax. We were still in it with 5-6 games remaining, but I think we just happened to have our anual dip in form at the wrong time. After last year's performance and the fact that we kept chalking up the points while playing very well at times and very poorly at other times this season, I will admit I had hopes that we could cross the line first. But fine it didn't happen and that's football. After all, we still won a Cup (the Mickey Mouse one as some call it on here) and Klopp righted the ship from what was definitely a disastrous year last year. And he's leaving behind a rejuvenated squad with plenty of youngsters eager to prove themselves, so I have hope under the new manager.

The Europa Cup was there for us to win. Getting turned over by Atlanta was sickening but what can you do🤷♂️. It hasn’t been a bad season but wasn’t great either.

Overall Arsenal and City have been better than us
Yes i am disappointed we had a opportunity to win more in Klopps final season however we are giving our new manager Champions league football and a solid foundation.

This is the type of season everyone predicted we could have based on the rebuild so we have essentially, met expectations, IMO. Could we have done better? Obviously yes BUT at the end of the day, many of us did not think we could challenge for the title let alone win it going in and based on the way the season played out, we were right. On to a new era set to begin with Arne Slot next season.

Missed opportunity and I don’t think we’ve played well as a team.
Bradley was an exciting high point and Danns and Koumas were great in their cameos.

I am a glass half full guy…. I think it has been a good season. The biggest disappointment for me was us not making Europa league final, we (alongside leverkusen) were the best team and lost our heads in that first Atalanta game.
I think to win the league with all the changes to the team, injuries and performance/ slump of last season was alway going to be a step too far.
Overall, I would give the season 7/ 10! The league cup final was a memorable game fitting for Klopps final season.
Bradley and quansah really impress me and actually I really enjoy Gomez as the inverted left back as I think it helps to give us control.
Excited to see how Slot approaches his tactics.

LTO I really don’t believe you had us down at the start of the season winning the league. Just don’t believe it with the midfield rebuild we had, the only thing we’ve fallen short of is winning europa league we should have won that with the level of players we have.

{Ed001's Note - if anyone had said at the start of the season we would finish 3rd, win the League Cup and get so far in the Europa, I think 99% of us would have been delighted. It is just that the way the season transpired, the only reason we fell away from the title and failed to reach the FA Cup and Europa League final is down to our own failings, that makes it feel so bad. What makes it worse is that Klopp is partly to blame for us not still being in for the quadruple, when we are all so thankful for what he has brought to us. But the good thing is that now nothing can take away from Anfield giving Klopp the send off he deserves, as the game is a dead rubber for us. So we can just enjoy a giant farewell party and I have no doubt that we will all be in floods of tears saying goodbye to a true great of the club. One of very few men that truly deserve to be called a legend.}

Thank you Klopp for being honest about VAR. Am not sure he would said that if he was staying next season but who cares. What he said is absolutely correct! I just wish there were more high profile managers or owners that would do the same 👏🏼👏🏼.

Longthing, Klopp is letting it all hang out cos he's out the gaf. Can you blame him?

"Not being champion by a point is not a great experience but it's an experience. " Klopp at his last press conference. I think that actually sums up his time with us perfectly. It certainly has been one hell of an experience, ups and downs and everything in between.
Thank you Jurgen for everything.

Klopp's time here simply reflects life in general, IMO. Ups and down, rollercoaster rides taking your lumps and learning from them, winning some and losing some and getting knocked down BUT having the botttle to get back on that horse and go again. A Rocky-like story, if you like and we can all relate to thsuch a story.
The fact that during his tenure, he is ONLY second to Pep (for obvious reasons) in trophies won only shows how great he has been and how all the other PL managers could never hold a candle to him. Danke, Jurgen! .

What is Trent even worth now?
1
17 May 2024 14:11:37
I hope he does Ed001. Must be a slight temptation given he's good mates with Bellingham, but it's a little bit like the Coutinho situation. Stay here and he can be a legend. Go to Madrid and you're just another player who they will replace with a new Galactico without hesitation.
I just hope he stays as a midfielder or a winger. He used to shine there at youth level and got compared to Gerrard. I read a lot that he's too slow but he is actually a very powerful runner. He's not the quickest off the mark and that does hamper him up against explosive wingers, but once he gets going he has that same power that the likes of Gerrard and Vieira had carrying the ball or making a run beyond a team mate. I'd put him in as AM or RW where he looked best at youth level. I have no doubt that he'd smash it in either of those positions.
He's far too good going forward for us to want him to leave so it will surely come down to his decision.

I really hope he stays. Our best player on the ball, no doubt about it. Get him playing further forward.

Trents a boyhood red and his likely ambition will be to captain LFC, win the league and CL with his boyhood club.
Technically he's done all that already and with us about to go through a managerial change how close are we to winning the league and CL title next season or so on.
Real are building a world class squad with the new galacticos of Vinicius, Mbappe and Bellingham etc.
The pull of Real if they do want Trent might be too much.
In 7 months time he can negotiate a free transfer. It seems that all the negotiating power is with the player.

Longthing, What is Trent worth? Whatever any club is willing to pay for him. Seriously tho, I don't think we will sell if he does not make a fuss, which I don't think he will do either. So he stays, IMO.

I'm not connected to professional football in any shape or form, just an avid fan and observer like most on here, since a few decades.
TAA will probably be asking for at least 300K per week, at the least. How many of you want to pay him that much (minimum)?

I personally think Bradley is a more effective right back, I don’t see him as a centre midfielder as he shirks too many challenges too often and doesn’t seem to want to do the dirty work, can’t see him as a number 10 as he hasn’t the vision and intelligence of someone like De Bruyne and that lack of acceleration absolutely marks him out of being a winger at the top level, as you either need a burst of lightning pace or a bag of tricks to get you past a fullback and he has neither. IMHO, I think it time both parties moved on.

I love to see people writing off trent as a midfielder without ever seeing him actually play there. We have a liverpudian born and bred who loves the club and has won a CL and PL with us, and people are like nah he can't be good enough to adapt, yet milner could play everywhere.
Some weird takes on Trent of late.

17 May 2024 20:20:32
He will sign a contract and stay, we'll have to sell others to get the new toys.

DeanW: so because James Milner exists as a jack of all trades, Trent is good enough to be a midfielder?
0
18 May 2024 06:35:52
Trent needs a reset and I hope Slot can do that. He's gone backwards over the last few years from being someone who looked like a generational talent to someone who is a genuine liability defensively and doesn't actually look that effective going forward anymore.
