Cunha excelling again for Wolves, he'd be near the top of my list of targets if LFC are looking to add a forward in the summer. and we do like the old release clause.
1.) 09 Feb 2025 14:56:41
Definitely. I'd say if we were to be getting rid of Jota and Nunez it has to be Cunha and Danns to replace them.
2.) 09 Feb 2025 16:14:59
Danns? Good one.
3.) 09 Feb 2025 16:35:53
What's up with Danns, Kurt?
4.) 09 Feb 2025 17:06:56
Not good enough yet? We're trying to upgrade not the other way.
5.) 09 Feb 2025 17:43:49
I agree with Kurt on this, Salah. Danns falls into the category, along with nearly all our kids, they, and him aren't ready to be vying for first team; certainly not next season, anyway.
I'm still angry about the show today and the lack of respect shown by Slot. He got this wrong.
Was on the chat, today, and it got toxic with a tiny minority. That was also disappointing. None of us agree with each other all the time, but that should be able to be conveyed without over stepping the mark.
6.) 09 Feb 2025 17:53:54
For me Etikite of franfurt looks brilliant, we should be getting rid of Jota, nunez and diaz.
7.) 09 Feb 2025 18:04:17
The online chat was better than the game, until it got nasty towards the end.
Danns would have been better than Jota, Diaz, Chiesa and Nunez were today. Jota was hideous from the 1st minute and had the captain’s armband for most of the game! Nunez managed to hit the square foot taken up by the goalkeepers hand when he had the other 191 to aim at. Diaz was woeful and tackles worse than Paul Scholes. Chiesa at least put some decent balls I to the box but I feel he is not strong enough for English football.
All the young lads, bar Elliott, get a pass. Elliott really should have used his Blackburn experience today and let himself down.
However Slot should take most of the blame for not learning from Klopp’s big mistake. Never underestimate the FA Cup. Terrible team selection. Starting XI and bench. He will only be vindicated if we win the league and Carabao Cup. So now Everton is a must win.
8.) 09 Feb 2025 18:04:46
Quansah, Kelleher, Endo, Tsimikas, Elliott, Jota, Diaz, Darwin and Cheisa all played today. That’s enough first team/ senior players to win a game against a bottom of the Championship team Rome. In the main the players never showed up today .
I don’t think Slot got it wrong at all but I certainly think the players did. It is what it is. Well done and well deserved Plymouth. Suck it up and move on I say ?.
9.) 09 Feb 2025 18:19:59
Reminds me of a less refined Bobby but with more of a dog in him, which I do not think is a bad thing.
10.) 09 Feb 2025 18:31:05
Irish, come the morning I will probably agree with everything that you've said. I tend to come down like a hot air balloon. I do think that Slot should've had more experience on the bench, just for insurance. Like I say, reading your post, I will probably be saying the same myself tomorrow.
11.) 09 Feb 2025 20:02:10
Danns as a starting forward. no way!
12.) 09 Feb 2025 21:24:26
Id didn't care about the game before it and I definitely do not care about the game now.
20 Jan 2025 16:08:57
Slot says Jota will be back in "weeks not months" with a shoulder muscle issue.
Honestly, he's our best finisher but made of glass, much like Sturridge and surely getting to the point whereby we move him on as he's missed 94 games since he joined and can't be relied on.
Thoughts? Keep him because of his quality when fit, or invest in someone more likely to get onto the pitch.
1.) 20 Jan 2025 16:42:58
Get rid.
2.) 20 Jan 2025 16:52:29
Time to move him on, this is getting ridiculous tbh.
3.) 20 Jan 2025 16:55:18
And yet he still has more goals than Nunez despite always being injured… What does that tell you?
4.) 20 Jan 2025 16:56:50
No choice really, get rid.
5.) 20 Jan 2025 16:58:14
@ROme, I seem to remember a ton of fans (not so much on here) who LOVED parrotting the same old, "Availability is the best ability" schtick when it was time to get rid of Ox, Naby etc.
So my question to such people is: Does that statement also apply to you know, Diogo Jota?
Or does this narrative only apply to players they want rid at all costs?
6.) 20 Jan 2025 17:25:19
Definitely something fishy with this Jota injury and makes me think there is more to that original lung injury rumour.
Ideal opportunity for Darwin though to hopefully kick on.
7.) 20 Jan 2025 17:34:43
Not a fair comparison Oli, as when Jota is fit, he invariably contributes with plenty of goals. He makes us miss him when he's not available, whereas naby never contributed a thing in his time here, and ox was finished at the top level after his last major injury.
Given he's on a big wage, seems to be missing more and more games, and someone I'm sure will pay decent money for him, I think we should move him on, but it's fairly obvious why it's a tougher decision than the other players you mentioned.
8.) 20 Jan 2025 17:46:13
Jota needs to go. Nunez for his misgivings isn't injured all the time, just needs to learn how to put the ball in the net more frequently.
Oh and learn English. It's been 3 seasons now.
9.) 20 Jan 2025 17:48:12
Yeah he needs to be moved on, a real shame for the lad because he clearly has quality but he's hardly ever fit, imagine if he was? we'd of been laughing even more this season but unfortunately for him and for us he is indeed made of glass.
10.) 20 Jan 2025 17:59:01
Nobody’s shocked. Same players injured all the time.
He should be embarrassed by it, it’s pathetic really.
This is why you can’t go selling Nunez at a drop of a hat. If the club wants to sell him then he must be replaced straight away because we can’t rely on Jota.
11.) 20 Jan 2025 18:12:39
Sturridge had some muscle genetic thing running in family. Jota just doesn't sleep and recover properly by playing video games. Both are not the same.
12.) 20 Jan 2025 18:18:15
If Nunez' goal totals were higher, I wouldn't have a problem moving Jota on. But I don't think sitting Diaz in Jota's place is the solution. If a productive goalscorer can be found to replace Jota, then maybe. I wouldn't expect any massive improvement from either Diaz or Nunez, if Jota were to be sold. So then why are we doing it?
13.) 20 Jan 2025 18:39:46
Be careful Liverbird031 when your creeping around at night peering through Jota's windows.
{Ed001's Note - you don't need to look through his windows, he is playing online in international FIFA (or whatever it is called now) tournaments and just general ranking matches. They are open to all to view and regularly get posted online. He also has his own eSports team that he jets around supporting.}
14.) 20 Jan 2025 18:58:34
Yeah I’d sell if the club are confident they can replace him with someone better.
Far too many injuries to be relied on sadly.
15.) 20 Jan 2025 19:05:50
@Navy Keith "Wrong Again"
"and yet he still has more goals than Nunez despite always being injured. what does that tell you?
It tells me a load of "Barry White" and lies Navy Keith.
Darwin 24 premier league goals since he joined the club (22-25) .
Jota 22 premier league goals, since nunez joined the club (22-25).
. what does that tell you?
16.) 20 Jan 2025 19:55:26
Wind your neck in, you talk more sh*te than anyone on here.
This season, Jota has more goals than Nunez, despite missing lots through injury. That was my point. Which is not wrong, it’s correct.
17.) 20 Jan 2025 20:01:35
Sell Jota let Trent and Salah go. Get proven players around 23-26 years old and we boss the league for next few seasons.
18.) 20 Jan 2025 20:23:29
With regards to Jota and Darwin, I think it is about what a player contributes to what we are trying to achieve. I’ve not checked the figures posted by 007 but if correct it shows Jota is more clinical, however, Darwin is more robust and therefore plays more. I’m just not sure who would buy Jota from as due to his injury record.
19.) 20 Jan 2025 21:03:29
I think Jota is a sad case. Fantastic talent, genuinely great finishing, always gives his all on the pitch, were he to stay fit I believe he could generate Isak like numbers, but, he is blighted by injuries. Small and significant, I have no opinion on the fifa playing, once your not at work anything you do that doesn’t affect your work performance is your business and if he has an esports team that’s just a business. Loads of footballers have businesses so not sure why he’s singled out that for that. It’s a damn shame he is so injury prone because there’s a top class striker there if he could stay fit, but he can’t, so we should look to replace him unfortunately.
{Ed001's Note - if you read what you said, and you still can't figure out why they are being mentioned, perhaps you need to learn what effects performances. People just want to make excuses for a player who can't stay fit, and it is all his own fault.}
20.) 20 Jan 2025 21:40:44
Professional footballers need to look after themselves
I can’t believe the club aren’t trying to sell Jota if, off the pitch, he isn’t liking after himself in regards adequate rest and recovery.
21.) 20 Jan 2025 22:42:21
If he was on a contract that paid based on appearances he might take better care of himself.
22.) 21 Jan 2025 00:04:50
Professional footballers' job requires more than just turning up for trainings and matches. I used to play competitive sports too and my coach always emphasised to us that proper recovery is just as important, if not more. And if Jota's gaming affects his recovery and is a cause for his many injuries then yes, it is his fault and we should get rid. He's a highly paid professional athlete so there should be no excuses if he doesn't take care of himself.
23.) 21 Jan 2025 00:19:50
One can't stay fit and the other can't score.
Sell both. And Diaz. I'll give Gakpo another season though.
24.) 21 Jan 2025 08:04:10
Buy first sell later. First get a good replacement who can make the position his own, then decide who to move on.
25.) 21 Jan 2025 13:15:11
Rugby, I agree with you BUT Im just asking for people (who love Jota and want him kept) to also keep it consistent. For me if Jota got sold, I wouldn't frown about it cos he turns 29 next season and those injuries will only get worse and take longer to recover from.
Can't say that with Darwin who is always available for selection and most importantly, is 3 years younger with 3 years left on his deal after this season.
09 Jun 2024 14:52:06
Seeing reports than Alan Hansen is very unwell and in intensive care.
If true I'm sure we all wish him well and a speedy recovery.
1.) 09 Jun 2024 15:17:52
Saw that earlier myself and hope it's not as serious as it sounds and he makes a full recovery.
2.) 09 Jun 2024 16:03:43
Get well soon Jockey.
Legend ??.
3.) 09 Jun 2024 17:36:58
Heard earlier hope he’s ok get well soon jockey lad YNWA.
4.) 09 Jun 2024 19:09:20
Get well soon YNWA.
5.) 09 Jun 2024 19:20:31
Best wishes to Jockey Hansen get well soon YNWA.
6.) 09 Jun 2024 21:45:08
I really hope i’m wrong, but that statement from the club sounded very ominous.
Keep fighting Alan - we’re all with you.
7.) 10 Jun 2024 12:22:31
Truly fantastic player who brought the ball of defence better than anyone, legend.
8.) 10 Jun 2024 15:37:22
May god bless you Alan and you make a full recovery, great player and great pundit and servant to the best club ever YNWA.
02 Feb 2025 11:08:00
Who doesn’t love a release clause, although as we saw last summer with Zubamendi if you intend to activate doesn’t mean you’ll get the player.
Huijsen looks a good player and at 19 is sort of age
LFC would love. Coming in he wouldn’t necessarily be expecting to be first choice but might be VVD’s successor (if VVD stays) . Him and Kerkez would do very nicely thank you.
21 Aug 2024 10:12:23
Paisley I don’t believe that was the proposal, I think it was we agreed to buy him next summer for the agreed fee and Valencia agreed to loan him to Bournemouth, hence why it was complex.
Far less hassle to buy him and let him stay at Valencia.
12 Aug 2024 22:03:13
Definitely a bad start for Hughes. He’s obviously got the nod from agent and probably the player that he was interested in the move, but then he’s changed his mind and screwed LFC and Hughes.
Surely there should be a back up option rather than putting a band aid on the problem. We will probably not sign anyone because they feel our squad can cope…where’s the ambition there? Get a proper DM in to push us on.
15 Jul 2024 12:48:25
Thought it was more than 600 Ed, I’ve not seen any player viktor has rated.
{Ed025's Note - thats only this weeks tally Nutter.. :)
20 Aug 2023 14:59:27
Don’t see the need for Gravenberch now, we really need another specialist CDM player, Endo is one but the rest of our midfielders are more adept further forward so I’d go all in for dacoure and a LCB, ok if moneys there for all 3 ok, but I doubt it is.
19 Jan 2025 14:03:07
Hughes did well at Bournemouth recruited some handy players and very good manager, so he’s got an eye for a player.
His inactivity so far at Liverpool is it through lack of money from owners, by design or hasn’t handled the step up to a bigger club.
I can’t help but think, if we were linked or signed relatively unknown players there would be a fan meltdown, by same folk who moan that our scouts miss out on players who get snapped up by Brighton and Bournemouth who sell on at huge profit.
18 Jan 2025 18:02:44
John if you can’t remember the 70’s and 80’s I’d say you need to do some research before making that claim we’ve had some damn good ones. VVD is class but I’d have Hansen above him an absolute class act.
17 Jan 2025 17:20:03
Can’t remember the 77/ 78 as I was only 4, my favourite team was probably the 87/ 88 team when Beardsley, Barnes and Aldo were tearing it up and we’re a joy to watch. Shame that team never got to play in Europe as they would have taken some stopping to add to European cups.
15 Jan 2025 13:26:44
If we signed him I’m sure many will moan about it and the cost. If another PL sign him and he goes on to be a good player that club then want to sell on for £60 million LFC scouts would be moaned at for missing out on him when was available for €25 million.
13 Jan 2025 19:37:10
Macca seems to think if Nunez leaves this month the club might try for Osimhen, he would be more of a straight replacement.
I’m sure if we signed Tzimas many would not be happy because he’s not a proven name (even though he’d not be purchased expected to go into first team) .
Herein lies the problem with transfers, fans are not happy if it’s not the player they want or thinks good enough, but also moan when clubs like Brighton and Bournemouth etc unearth gems at little cost and wonder why our scouts don’t find those type of players.
