Guehi was celebrating a little too much for my liking 🤣

We just got LiVARpool’d

Goal after the 6 additional minutes (ok it’s a minimum but stil lol) and then a winner well beyond the 90

Sucks to concede two really scruffy set piece goals. Crystal palace are a tough match man, a point would have been good but alas we don’t get it.

Regards Konate - I’m not blaming him for the result, just reinforcing a point I’ve been making about him and this contract saga - he wants whatever pay packet he wants. which, if he got it, imo should reflect he is not just a CB partner to VVD but another leader in the team. Someone we can rely on to lead in VVDs absence. But he is just not that at all. He’s a very capable #2 who plays well most of the time when he is alongside someone like VVD. I personally would let him go if we’re not meeting on terms and then look to the market

Mo? Oh Mo, where art thou Mo
🤣.

Had Matip been five years younger when we signed him on a freebie, CON-ate (£36 Million TF) would have been playing for the Liverpool Ladies team.

VVD has carried him for his entire LFC career.

If he went to Real Madrid he would solve all their problems, and "CERTAINLY" ours too.

I just don't get Arne's thinking he takes Kerkez off at Burnley for being in danger of a red card, yet CON-ate was in the same boat yesterday booked and playing very poor, Arne also did the same for Quansah against Ipswich when replacing with CON-ate surely he should of had a dose of his own medicine yesterday.

Though he and his agent now know that with Leoni sadly out for the season and Gomez after Tuesday out of form? they don't have any competition for VVDs defensive partner, till the next transfer window.

I think every LFC fan now knows why Glasner has denied Guehi joining LFC as he is the Palace version of VVD. We could have had the best two centre backs in the PL, for what another 5-10 million, when ye owner has a personal wealth of Six Billion (Forbes Rich List) we argued about Buttons, shame on you Henry!

{Ed001's Note - it was nothing to do with money, Parish was happy to accept our offer.}

We had the fee agreed and all with Palace. Guehi was even undergoing a medical with us prior to the plug being pulled on the deal. The issue was with Glasner throwing all the toys out of his pram that caused the deal to collapse. Nothing to do with the fee at all.

And a bit rich saying "shame on Henry" and implying we were being skint when we bought two players for over £100m each the past window. That's not even considering that the owners don't get involved in our transfers. The money we spend comes from LiverpoolFC, not FSG.

Fenway Sports Group have owned Liverpool Football Club since 2010- Wikipedia.

John W. Henry is the owner of Fenway-Wikipedia.

Is this the same Henry that Jurgen had to personally sell Coutinho to fund Becker and VVD transfers?

Wouldn't it have been a lot better for Jurgen, if Coutinho would have had becker and VVD as his team mates! not opponents?

Players leaving the club for money balance the club coffers, outgoing pays for incoming also.

Is this the same Henry who wanted to form a breakaway european league behind the supporters backs.

Sacked King Kenny who won FSGs first cup at LFC, took FSG to their first ever two cup finals, the shame that must have been for King Kenny!

Then replaced King Kenny with Bodger Rodgers, who then ashamed us the supporters by buying Borini, Lambert and Joe Allen with Henrys approval as his name was on the cheques, bit rich that isn't it?

{Ed001's Note - his name was not on the cheques. That is nonsense. And Coutinho forced his way out, Klopp wantd him to stay, though the recruitment team were convinced, rightly so, that we would be better without him.}

That had been coming. I’m really glad we didn’t get a point as we didn’t deserve it. Hopefully this jolts everyone into action. There seems to be a disconnect between the defence and midfield and midfield and attack. It’s so weird. Obviously we’ve had a lot of changes of personnel and everyone is still getting used to each other. Just can’t wait to enjoy watching us play again. Apart from Athletico and 30 minutes against Everton it’s been a slog.

27 Sep 2025 21:12:18
These slow starts we regularly do in matches are going to come back n bite us on the Arse if we don't sort it . only against Everton were we on top from the start . we knew what teams like Palace will do . work hard, defend well n look to counter . they could n should be ahead by a bigger margin by half time . not going to call individuals performances out . but id like in the next game to just get at them from the start.

Atleti?

27 Sep 2025 22:17:28
Bad result boo frickin who! Move on.

27 Sep 2025 23:52:53
Is Boo Frickin who are new signing 🤔.

28 Sep 2025 10:08:50
My concern is, we have all these flair players in our team, so why are we so boring to watch. Slow build up and passing just for the sake of passing, and mostly sideways and backwards. When was the last time we scored on a breakaway, which we used to do regularly.

28 Sep 2025 20:08:16
Should we have spent the money a bit wiser, we don't have one quality full back, midfield is unbalanced, too many players not fit enough or settling in, oh and Palace were head and shoulders above us, plus Guehi different class to Konate, could they get Top Four, Palace that is.

27 Sep 2025 18:10:05
Call it knee jerk, call it trolling.
But wirtz is doing nothing in our midfield, he can't keep playing off of his price tag. Isak is not match fit and it should have been chiesa to start. Wirtz is not premier league ready and it should have been gakpo to start.

27 Sep 2025 18:35:47
Yeah, completely agree about Wirtz.

I had never seen him play, besides when he played for Leverkusen against Liverpool. Everyone was telling me he was special, and not just fans on this site, but rivals fans too. Everyone was losing it after we got him.

But, my word, he is not cut out for a top competition, where space is often times absent. He is so lightweight, possess no great speed to evade or get past opposition players, his passing is often under hit or not angled correctly. He is also non-existent as a finishing prospect, rarely gets into those positions and when he does, looks unsure and whiffs at opportunities.

Very underwhelmed. The fact that we are moving him around in order to include him in the first 11, tells you everything about his performances. He certainly works hard, don't get me wrong, but Szobo already did that, and to a greater extent and speed than Wirtz.

I just don't know what he offers, makes him special. It is all style and no substance, flashy flicks, which don't always come off and when they do end up stunting the teammates momentum. There's just nothing I can see which would suggest he can overcome the Prem hurdles, or the price tag.

A luxury signing which appears to be an unintended mistake. Never seen the lad play before he joined Liverpool (Other than one match) but my word, he just isn't ready for this league, and at 100+ million I expected to see at least something, but there is nothing to see.

A miscalculation, to say the least.

27 Sep 2025 19:13:20
The lad needs time. We needed that today, similar to Forest last year. Hugo was a big miss today. We've just won the first 5 on the bounce, it's hardly panic stations. Slot is learning on the job and is allowed to make the odd mistake. I would say though Salah needs to know he has competition may be dropping him would do him some good.

27 Sep 2025 22:18:52
Patience child!

27 Sep 2025 22:29:15
Salah has played this season with 3 different rb behind him. Last season he was the main man, now we got 3 new 100 million £ players jostling for position He’s not the problem atm.

27 Sep 2025 17:36:33
Not a good performance today at all, a point would have been a good result in the end. But I will say one thing, that Palace team will take some stopping, they could be dark horses for the league or at least a CL spot. Wirtz, Salah, Gakpo and Isak all well below par today, and kerkez with a silly decision at the end. Overall I don't think we deserved anything from the game today the only positives is Allison and great to see Fedi find his form too

Thanks.

27 Sep 2025 18:09:11
Palace dark horses for the league? Get off the ale, mate. Palace were no better than any other team we’ve played this season, though they do have a clear gameplan that doesn’t deviate much.
Rather, Liverpool were an absolute disgrace today. Unlike in other games, however, we were finally punished for our poor performance.

27 Sep 2025 17:26:50
Far too poor from us today, Palace could've had 5 before half time. Second half they picked up but attacks were still slow and predictable. A lot of players are playing poorly, and though we lost today our performance levels were the same level of garbage we've seen almost every game this season. When are we going to actually start playing well? Macallister looks list every time he plays. Bradley's passing and decision making is abysmal. Kerkez looks poor defensively and offers little offensively. Konate is not a good defender, he really isn't. Salah is in the worst form of his Liverpool career. Gakpo looks stagnant. Wirtz has been on the periphery of every game he has played. This season only Szobo, Grav (whose defending of their curves today was utterly awful), Ekitike, and Chiesa have had more than 2 decent games, everyone else has struggled badly. This needs fixing because we cannot keep treading water at this rate.

27 Sep 2025 17:30:27
My gripe is with our tactics - i don't feel we play with enough purpose. We genuinely deserved f**k all today, Alisson is why we didn't get pumped.

Chiesa deserves to start more than any of our forwards right now.

27 Sep 2025 17:46:34
I don’t like the way they taking 3 touches before they pass. Everyone gave Curtis loads for doing this last season. The movement off the ball is slow too, Is it planned? Get the ball down play quick passes get moving quicker watch Wirtz explode.

27 Sep 2025 17:54:52
Lack of intensity today, which exposed the problems we are having bedding in so many new players.
Mo and Macca way off their normal levels - but that will come back.
Right side of the defence is my concern. I’m not sure how many more chance Bradley will get.
