13 Dec 2025 18:41:59
Never ceases to amaze me.

13 Dec 2025 16:50:41
Could I be added to the list for the live chat please.

{Ed033's Note - PeteColo and Red in Belfast added to live chat

Question for the experts.

Would you rather Caicedo than Grav?

Would Grav be better with Caicedo behind him?

13 Dec 2025 12:30:09
Controversial maybe but, Mason Greenwood. Would he ever be considered for the right wing? He's been playing well in France, English, Young.

I completely understand that he would be a very controversial choice. All of that aside eds, any info on if he's ever been considered?

{Ed025's Note - you have got to be kidding, absolute scum bag of the lowest order and a wife beater ffs..

13 Dec 2025 13:00:30
Why would anyone want that vile piece of sh! t at the club?

I would rather us play every week with ten men.

{Ed025's Note - absolutely Ernie..

13 Dec 2025 13:15:55
Absolutely appalled even by the suggestion of this. Not in a million years. He's a vile human.

13 Dec 2025 13:46:28
Come on Mo-m-zi
Are you just trying to be controversial. That must rate as the worst post of the year. And we are in December. If are not trying to get a reaction and believe this is a good move for Liverpool a feel a head wobble coming on.

13 Dec 2025 14:00:02
Disgusting to even spend time thinking about a suggestion like has been mentioned.

Awful human being.

13 Dec 2025 16:01:05
What are you smoking mate?

13 Dec 2025 16:49:26
First of all It wasn't a suggestion, It was a question.

It's not too much to ask to have a question answered, some of you need to read the actual question.

13 Dec 2025 17:26:46
We did read the question and you can see the reaction. So what exactly was your point? Did you seriously believe that any sane human being would answer your question with a positive response. Look at the response from ED025. Did you not see the footage of him?

13 Dec 2025 17:57:22
what footage? You mean the audio? I'm guessing that's what you're confusing with footage?

So the question is pretty simple, I'll say it again so you can maybe come to terms with it. Since it's not a suggestion in the slightest.

"any info on if he's ever been considered? "

Now I'm asking this question because of the fact that he's English, a right winger, left and right footed, and can play striker and left wing if needed and is young and bagging a few goals recently. Which checks a lot of boxes for english clubs.

Now if you take away all of the preconceptions you have about him regardless of wether they are warranted or not, which I'm not for one second suggesting that they are not warranted, it becomes an interesting question. Specially since the woman that was/ is the accuser/ victim is still currently in a relationship with him and has had two childeren with since.

despite all of this, the question was just has there been any noise that Greenwood would even be looked at.

Other teams in europe will definitley be looking at him with the way he's been performing.

13 Dec 2025 18:31:57
Ah, it was a question! My bad, I didn't realize. In that case, I think Diddy, Harvey Weinstein and Josef Fritzel would probably be worth considering too.

13 Dec 2025 19:26:07
He can beat his man in front of him . I've also heard he can beat his, oh. I'll leave this one here .

13 Dec 2025 10:40:01
Hi everyone,

I posted the other day re: Salah having player his last game. This info came from other parts of the club (not Slot, not the players), a little higher up the chain. I'm surprised to some extent but on the other hand - I am not, it's the nature of the club at present. I don't think it's the right way to deal with things. At the moment we know he's in the squad - let's see if he plays.

Club is looking for options for Elliot - that's obvious, I suppose.

It looks like Semenyo is done but we do have competing offers.

McAllister I have heard is looking to leave in Summer. I have seen rumours about Gravernberch leaving - I'd hope not, and I haven't heard anything myself, but everything is so up ok the air at the moment, who knows.

13 Dec 2025 17:39:54
Of Macca Grav and Dom, do whatever we can to keep Dom. The other two I won't lose sleep over if they were to leave. Macca especially.

12 Dec 2025 19:19:23
Has anyone any knowledge as to the whereabouts of Stefan Bajcetic?

12 Dec 2025 19:56:18
Why, does he owe you money?

13 Dec 2025 19:37:29
He’s in the U21s trying to regain fitness following his injury.

12 Dec 2025 19:17:01
Am hearing we are talking with Bayern about Olise and if they are interested in a deal with Salah involved. Not an easy deal obviously, but definitely possible. . Keep your eyes out in January for this, more likely June.

12 Dec 2025 19:22:22
More likely rubbish.

13 Dec 2025 06:39:53
Olise for Salah

Going into his prime vs Going out of his prime?

Yeah, I don't believe it.

12 Dec 2025 17:29:52
Disgusting Salahs treatment for expressing a want to play and that the club want rid of him whereas your start a bloke like Isak who literally goes on strike and refuses to play if he gets his knickers in a knot.

12 Dec 2025 19:59:08
I'm sorry your crush was playing so badly he got dropped.
What has Isak going on strike at Newcastle got to do with Liverpool?

12 Dec 2025 20:09:27
Um, he’s in the squad for tomorrow? Not sure where you feel the club has let him down here? Should they be wheeling him out on a throne ahead of each game, paying him even more, or just guaranteeing that he can never be dropped or even subbed?
First time he has been on the bench in 8 years, and he responds after just 1 week by throwing so much muck at the team, club and manager.


As Virgil pointed out: yes, he’s helped players like Virgil a lot, but they have also helped him.
I think we can all agree that Mo is a legend, but there is no disguising the fact that his behaviour this past week has been disgraceful.

13 Dec 2025 11:34:26
Bang on Monster. I'm currently on coach on way to game and everyone on board shares the same view as you. A few of the lads were in Milan and they've said that every players song was sang on the night, other than Salah. Read into that what you will. And that included players who weren't playing.

12 Dec 2025 08:19:18
Was that Mo meeting with Hendo in London a recent get together, like this week? Interesting if it was this week, wonder is he picking Hendo's brain on a move to Saudi or asking how to make amends for his faux pas with the press?

12 Dec 2025 11:29:46
Probably both, I would imagine. Sounds like time has given both sides the opportunity to reflect, based upon Arne's comments. Let's hope for a positive outcome, whatever the longer-term plans are.

12 Dec 2025 12:51:47
Forgive me for being a bit cynical on this but if Salah wants a chat in private with Hendo wouldn’t he just go round to his house?

Or is it better for the optics if you make sure you are pictured with Hendo having a serious talk in an Italian restaurant 🤔.

12 Dec 2025 14:23:56
A couple of mates going for a meal.

12 Dec 2025 16:05:41
Initially I backed Salah maybe swayed by the fact that I don’t really enjoy slot football and Salahs legendary status however I’m starting to get the ick off this saga and don’t think Mo is handling himself well at all. Posting on insta the same day as we play inter when he never posts there is such a distraction and aimed at garnering further publicity, this Hendo meet up stinks of the same, as many have mentioned they could have had a call, met somewhere discreetly etc but this (if verified) stinks of gamesmanship and I’m not a fan.

This isint a get Salah out post this is a cop on and be professional!

12 Dec 2025 17:14:26
To be fair, they both apparently went in/ out of the place wearing face masks and hats - so I don’t think Mo was aiming to be spotted.
Given his instagram post, I do think he could have found the energy to follow it up with one congratulating the team on their victory.


I imagine Hendo would be saying to him don’t make the same mistake I made: don’t stomp out of the club for emotional reasons when you can no longer be guaranteed to start every game.
Though, of course, he could have just been talking to him about Love Island……,

13 Dec 2025 13:26:15
I’m with Ernie, 2 mates going for a scran.

10 Dec 2025 18:25:43
A few questions for Ed001 about Salah please.

How has Mohamed Salah’s playing style evolved from his early professional years at Arab Contractors, through his developmental period at Basel and his challenging stint at Chelsea, to becoming one of the most prolific attackers in the world at Liverpool—particularly in terms of tactical intelligence, positional movement, finishing efficiency, pressing responsibilities, and leadership on and off the pitch?

To what extent has Mohamed Salah shaped Liverpool’s tactical identity under Jürgen Klopp, and how have his attributes—such as his inside-forward role, diagonal runs, one-versus-one threat, counter-pressing, and partnerships with players like Sadio Mané, Roberto Firmino, Trent Alexander-Arnold, and later Darwin Núñez—contributed to the club’s success in the Premier League, Champions League, and global competitions?

How has Mohamed Salah demonstrated psychological resilience throughout his career, particularly considering the setbacks of limited playtime at Chelsea, the high-pressure expectations of being Egypt’s talisman, and the burden of consistently performing at an elite level for Liverpool, and what does this reveal about his mental preparation, motivation, and personal discipline?

What is the broader socio-cultural significance of Mohamed Salah in Egypt and the Middle East, and how has his global success affected national identity, youth development in Egyptian football, political symbolism, community morale, and the international perception of Egyptian athletes?

How has Mohamed Salah’s image been leveraged in global sports marketing—across sponsorships, branding, social media presence, and public relations—and what does his worldwide popularity reveal about modern athlete branding, cross-cultural appeal, and the commercial influence of football in regions such as the Middle East, Africa, Europe, and Asia?

How has Mohamed Salah managed to maintain elite performance levels well into his early 30s?

TÍA. Great work!

{Ed001's Note - sorry it has taken a while to get round to answering this.

1. I have only seen Salah play a handful of times in total before we signed him, so I don't know what he changed, sorry. Great question though, the kind of thing I would love to, if I had time, do an article or pod about after researching it.

2. His play has made a major difference to the way we played. Prior to his arrival, it was mostly Coutinho on the left and Mane right, which meant we only had one threat for running in behind. His pace changed that completely and forced teams to defend wide, covering him and Mane, leaving space centrally for Firmino to operate in. The emergence of Alexander-Arnold changed things further, as every team needed to drop a few yards deeper as soon as we got the ball, fearing his ability to play in Salah from pretty much anywhere. The change from Firmino to Nunez brought another slight alteration, as Nunez could run in behind from the centre, which caused defences to narrow off and drop slightly deeper - they were afraid to let either run in behind. We have seen how much losing Trent's ability to put the ball on a sixpence has affected us, but no one has mentioned how the loss of Nunez has allowed teams a bit more freedom to defend wider. Both Ekitike and Isak like to drift wide, Gakpo rarely runs in behind, so suddenly they can shift over slightly to shut Salah down.

3. Salah's focus is incredible, he has dedicated himself to improvement, not just on the training pitch, but also away from it he will still be working on things to improve his game - from work in the gym to meditation. It is that constant focus on improvement that has allowed him to cope with the pressure. He is not thinking about it because he is so focused on what he is doing.

4. I don't know about in Egypt itself, but I do know here in Dubai you cannot go anywhere without his image everywhere. Wear a Liverpool shirt and you are constantly stopped by locals and Egyptians wanting to talk about Salah. He is all over the TV on every ad break as well. He is about as big a star as you can get out here.

5. To be honest, because of his focus on his game, his brand has not been leveraged as much as it could be. Also, there are political issues that have affected him, due to the problems in Egypt with it being back under a military dictatorship. He has to be very careful, as any misstep which upsets the regime can lead to repercussions for his family.

6. Simple - hard work. He goes above and beyond, constantly thinking about his lifestyle, diet, recovery and exercise regime. Most players go home and play video games or go out on the lash or whatever, very few have his complete focus on making himself the best he possibly can be.}

Much appreciated. You’re great at what you do.

{Ed001's Note - wow, thank you, now I am not sure if you are at the wind up or not! Not even my missus says I am great at what I do.}

11 Dec 2025 20:20:43
I mean that sincerely. Your opinions are always well written and thought out. I truly enjoy your work.

{Ed001's Note - thank you so much, I really appreciate that mate.}

11 Dec 2025 22:06:14
Great write up Ed01. I am always amazed why more players don’t take a lesson from the likes of Salah and CR7 and look after themselves properly, do extra work on their game, etc.

{Ed001's Note - Haaland is another.}

11 Dec 2025 23:06:40
Ed001, he's right, you are great at what you do along with the other Eds.

{Ed001's Note - you ruined my moment by including the other eds! 🤣

12 Dec 2025 00:05:33
You fell for that one, Ed1 - I think he was winding you up mate ;) lol. Only messing, mate. A great read!

{Ed001's Note - 😢

12 Dec 2025 10:07:41
This is exactly why I love this site. Where else would you get either the query or answer Excellent ED01. And Saul too! Thanks to both! 🎖️.

12 Dec 2025 18:20:45
Superb question and answer that. Special site, with special eds.

{Ed001's Note - the questions were excellent.}

11 Dec 2025 18:25:03
Not sure what the plan is with Semenyo. How are we supposed to fit both Isak and Ekitike into this team? Surely the priority should be solidifying the diamond.
Do we go back to a 4-3-3 and put Ekitike on the bench? It’s hard to believe this is the long-term plan.

11 Dec 2025 19:10:46
And as Ed001 has said several times, if one of our only two strikers gets injured, then what?

11 Dec 2025 19:14:24
Literally just a front three. Ekitike, Isak and Semenyo. I’d have Salah in there right now if he hadn’t fallen out with Slot. Don’t get why he keeps playing Gakpo.

11 Dec 2025 19:47:33
Diamond will be gone once we have wingers available for selection.

11 Dec 2025 20:08:29
My dream would be. Ali - Bradley, Guehi, VVD, Kerkez/ Robbo - Anderson - Grav, Szobo - Wirtz - Semenyo, Ekitike/ isak.

11 Dec 2025 17:25:43
Is the Semenyo deal still going ahead regardless of what's happening to the manager or will it change if the new manager comes in.
