Ed2, I can't see us buying anybody this window because we're skint. Where is the money coming from for the summer transfer window? or are we going to have to sell big to buy big?
{Ed002's Note - Clubs need to balance the books - Liverpool spent last summer accumulating debt. They have plenty of players that can be sold to refresh but it is critical that they resolve their squad management issues with HG and Club Developed players.}
1.) 07 Jan 2021 03:31:44
We need to start selling fringe players for realistic prices, and we need to do this fast. Otherwise where is the money for players we actually need going to come from?
Origi, Adrian, Keita, Shaq, Milner, Larouci, karius, Awoniyi, Wilson, Ojo, Woodburn, Millar, Grujic etc.
We have been holding on to these players too long where they are either sat warming the bench eating up huge paychecks or getting fared out on pointless loans with no end in sight.
Very poor squad management imo. No wonder the club's wage bill is through the roof and we don't have money to spare for transfers.
West Ham r about to sell Haller to Ajax. Commonsense dictates we test the waters and offer them Origi for 15 million pounds and see if they bite. We need money for a CB now by hook or crook.
2.) 07 Jan 2021 07:10:07
Bang out of order to include Milner on that list IB. His contract is up this summer so you’ll get your wish.
{Ed001's Note - he is contracted until summer 2022.}
3.) 07 Jan 2021 07:57:07
Milner but no ox? No way Indian.
4.) 07 Jan 2021 09:29:01
Milner is 36, why’s it bang out of order? Yes he’s a great player but he doesn’t play week in week out and will be the same next season if he stays. There’s a time when the club need to look forward. I agree ox should be on that list along with matip and phillips.
5.) 07 Jan 2021 09:55:47
The club is a business now and I’ve no doubt they will sell any player if needed to balance the books and I have no problem with this. Players want to leave all the time and won’t look back. Life moves on am afraid!
6.) 07 Jan 2021 10:57:45
If you can’t see how IB’s message is disrespectful to a great servant like Milner, then I can’t be bothered to even debate with you pegleg.
7.) 07 Jan 2021 12:19:23
'sat warming the bench eating up huge paychecks' Pegleg would you associate this with Milner? Let's give him the respect he deserves.
8.) 07 Jan 2021 13:13:14
So by your logic the club needs 11 players who play week in week out. We don't need back up players or players for rotation?
9.) 07 Jan 2021 13:49:45
I agree with ShaqAttack. Bang out of order to put loyal and decent players on a list of people we should get rid of!
In the words of Bill Shankley: "If you can't support us when we lose or draw, then don't support us when we win"
The message is "stay loyal to the club and the team at all times"
Have faith in the club who won 4 trophies for their supporters in last 12 months.
10.) 07 Jan 2021 14:48:40
I think we should keep Milner until he retires in 2022. When he signed his contract he spoke of his desire to coach at Liverpool when he hangs up his boots. He is the ultimate role model and still a very dependable player in multiple positions.
11.) 07 Jan 2021 14:52:35
the irony of your all defending one player but happy to bash the others on the list.
12.) 07 Jan 2021 15:34:05
Origi - has effectively been replaced already with Jota and Minamino, I love the guy but it's an obvious place for us to raise some funds and for him to get the move and playing time he deserves
Adrian - Has dome well but Kelleher has stepped up well. I doubt we'd get much for him though
Keita - This is the move I'd really like to see. I've always had hopes for Keita but he hasn't settled and injuries have seen him struggle to establish himself. A move could work for best for both him to reset and to raise some real funds for the club
Shaq - Hasn't played much so I'd see if we can raise anything for him and bring back Elliott
Milner - I'd keep him until he won't have us anymore!
Grujic - I'd really like to see him return and establish himself as a replacement for Gini (assuming he leaves), but I suspect he may move on unfortunately.
The rest are fringe/ kids IMO so won't get much for them.
In short, I don't see how we're likely to be a huge pool of funds unless someone like Salah were to move on.
{Ed002's Note - Adrian is out of contract in the summer - he is not going to be sold.}
13.) 07 Jan 2021 15:34:37
In what way am I being disrespectful to Milner? He is past his best, has been getting injured recently and is no longer a first team player. He is on 100k plus a week wages.
If we want to start trimming the squad, these difficult decisions need to be made. Milner has been a great servant to the club but it's time to move on. The senior players at the club like VVD, Fabinho, Alisson etc need to step up and become the leaders of the new look squad LFC will be building in the coming years.
14.) 07 Jan 2021 15:37:32
You can also add Phillips to that list. I'd keep Ox simply for the HG quota and Matip coz I doubt Klopp wants to overhaul the CB department in one go.
15.) 07 Jan 2021 18:22:33
Milner is a role model to the youth can play multiple roles in the squad and also fittest player every pre season he's a example to everyone else.
16.) 08 Jan 2021 14:11:49
Td red, where have I said that? I do t think he meant to put Milner in the bracket I certainly don’t. I think he’s a great player who’s served us well but unfortunately at his age he can be improved on. I’m also happy to see him stay but don’t get half the fans when they’re happy to see the likes of gini leave but cry over the mention of Milner going.
17.) 09 Jan 2021 09:39:20
The way I see it, we got VVD, Gomez to return to join Matip, Nat, Rhys and the kids. I still think we have more then enough cover in the CB position unless we are going to overspend to have 10 players per position.
18.) 09 Jan 2021 21:49:36
1) we don’t when VVD/ Gomez return to full match fitness never mind if.
2) Matip is hugely injury prone. Even if he does make it back for Utd game no doubt he’ll be injured again soon.
3) Philips wouldn’t be here if a buyer coulda been found in the summer. Wasn’t even included in CL squad. Contract up in summer.
4) Vast majority of supporters didn’t know Rhys existed start of the season. Was playing non league football 10mths ago. Not ready to be starting Prem league week in week out.
5) If Philips and Rhys was ready to be regular centrebacks then we wouldn’t need Hendo starting there. And I really don’t want to see Hendo starting there again.
21 May 2019 18:04:43
Firmino back in training today! get in lad! He's going to be so crucial in the final. Speaking of the final, is it me or is time dragging like hell? I just want it to be here already!
1.) 21 May 2019 18:34:13
I agree Salah, two weeks without football is killing me.
2.) 21 May 2019 19:06:40
I’ve resorted to watching highlights of all the games this season.
3.) 21 May 2019 20:20:03
Robbo seems to be okay as well.
Have seen a couple of photos of him there and he looked happy.
4.) 21 May 2019 20:40:23
Seems very long to me. Was there such a gap last year?
5.) 21 May 2019 21:01:09
Dragging like hell. Glad Firmino will be fit to play just hope he plays a lot better than he did in last years final.
6.) 21 May 2019 21:33:34
Welcome back Bobby!
We need those big white teeth on that pitch in Madrid 🔴
Cannot wait for the next Saturday, i need to try and keep calm till then. it's building up though!
YNWA!
7.) 21 May 2019 21:54:22
Doesn't anyone think that origi is a bit of a good omen for us in Europe he could have a big impact, I remember the Dortmund game home an away his form then was great then got injured obviously, but he seems too perform well in cup games for us an when he comes on or slots in, if Bobby ain't on it origi deserves a shot!
8.) 21 May 2019 23:35:57
Sunday was the worst for me, chest infection and no footy to watch : (
I know I was feverish but nearly put the SPL on!
9.) 22 May 2019 08:35:54
I'm glad there's a long gap if it means Firmino and Robbo get fit to play. Same doesn't apply to Kane though!
10.) 22 May 2019 09:26:34
We are always sluggish after long breaks though. Baffles me why the final isn't sooner.
11.) 23 May 2019 11:00:18
Italian and French leagues still have one game to go this weekend. Plus the German and Spanish Cup Finals are on this Saturday. I guess they expected clubs from some of those four leagues to be in the final. They were wrong.
15 Dec 2018 17:33:18
Ejaria to return to Liverpool early, I wonder if he will go elsewhere on loan in January?
1.) 16 Dec 2018 00:37:17
It's concerning that the word going around is that Ejaria left Rangers, and the Scottish league, due to it being too physical.
Hopefully that accusation is nothing more than slander because, if it is true, then that does not bode well for Ejaria's prospects. Every league is physical and you cannot carefully tip toe your way around numerous heavy handed challenges. I doubt many teams will risk bringing him in for fear he might not be willing to win those vital 50/ 50's.
Once again, I hope it is just a rumour because from what I have seen he is a decent player. A technically gifted young man who, at one point, I thought might get a game or two in the first team after a number of positive pre-season performances.
Fingers crossed wherever Ejaria goes he becomes more settled. whether that be Liverpool or somewhere else.
2.) 16 Dec 2018 08:48:02
Its rather telling that Stevie G sent him back, I doubt that will look good on his report card. The lad will need to pull his socks up and sort himself out as that was a bloody good opportunity at a good club with the right manager thrown away.
3.) 17 Dec 2018 00:13:15
Any chance it was a knee jerk reaction to a bad week for rangers? Meh, I’m a hoops fan so whatever.
04 Dec 2018 08:19:56
Hi Ed2, was wondering if there's any chance of you doing a sharkopod anytime soon?
{Ed002's Note - Sure but Ian in the middle of three weeks travel right now so it will newer to the holidays.}
1.) 04 Dec 2018 09:26:51
Fantastic Ed2, thank you, will look forward to that.
{Ed002's Note - No problem}
2.) 04 Dec 2018 10:17:45
Wow nice! Thanks Ed002!
3.) 04 Dec 2018 12:55:43
Ed002 will you be including a trip to the North Pole to see Santa on you travels?
Hope you have some quality down time in your time away.
{Ed002's Note - perhaps I should.}
21 Oct 2018 00:01:33
I see a lot of moaning going on which is fair enough, everybody has the right to speak their minds but I urge you to think about the most important thing and it's we're joint top of the league undefeated.
It's too easy to have a good moan, believe me I get it. We've not being playing the best football, far from it anyway but we're getting the results. Can we continue playing like this? sure we can, it's working somehow. I expected us to absolutely destroy Huddersfield but we didn't and that's that, it was hard to watch because of how poorly we played BUT we got the three points.
I have no idea what's going on in the background, I don't really think anything is going on, I don't think there's any issues I just think for some odd reason we're taking a bit longer than usual to get back into it, we're on what? game 9? it's a matter of time before the lads start to pull it together but even if they don't, there's no complaining from me why? because we're getting the 3 points from the teams last year we'd of drew against.
Onwards and upwards, good things are coming, we've made progress already, trust Klopp, trust the team and believe because that bloody title is finally ours this season, note this comment and quote me at the end of the season, it's happening.
I hope you are all doing very well.
1.) 21 Oct 2018 00:49:52
Good post mate.
Playing bad and anything near the top is amazing. At some point it will all click in to place and we will take some stopping. It’s great that we won’t have to play catch when this happens.
2.) 21 Oct 2018 01:59:14
Good post Salah mate. I knew Huddesfield wasn’t going to be easy.
My concern is how jaded and tired we looked.
{Ed0333's Note - for me the biggest issue is the three up top can’t for whatever reason string a simple through ball or a pass together for love nor money. They are playing as if they are drunk. We know they can be devestating on the counter and as soon as they remember how to pass well be ok. I have no idea why the cohesion isn’t there but one thing for sure is that well get better rather than regress.
3.) 21 Oct 2018 08:19:38
I agree with you salah, i think playing diff style so we don't burn out nesr end of the season, i think after xmas we will push on and see the hard press footy, klopp knows city can go all season playing like they do, so we are pkaying poorly but still joint top i will take that every season till klopp gets his full team he wants. ynwa.
4.) 21 Oct 2018 08:27:23
Suppose we all got spoiled last year with our attacking brilliance, this year we seem too get a goal or 2 then we sit back and rely on our new defensive quality, that midfield is good but doesn't unlock defences with some guile or score enough goals, but as said we joint top we have beat spurs away an got a point at Chelsea which is 4 extra points already.
5.) 21 Oct 2018 09:29:42
We hadn’t won for 4 games so I’ll take a result like that. We need to improve and Klopp knows it ðŸ‘.
6.) 21 Oct 2018 13:24:25
I think salah looks like he needs a break. He is turning into players, his touch is off and his finishing is too. I think he is mentally drained, from last season, the injury and the Egypt fa thing. Give him a week off, recoup and come back stronger.
7.) 21 Oct 2018 13:44:19
Are we really that bad guys? I get we can be better but is it really that bad. Remember how well we played when the pressure was of off us and the boys had smiles on their faces. We know they can be better and i for 1 know they will. For now let's keep the faith up like when the Hudds fans cheered the team after they had misplaced a pass that resulted in a throw in. We only just joint 1st place and you can see the effort of the boys. It will come together soon for now let's cheer them like never before e.
8.) 21 Oct 2018 13:11:42
Bang on ed. Nothing sums it up more than when Firmino came on yesterday- we broke and he had Salah right and Shaqiri in a better position to the left. Last season you'd put your house on him finding the right pass but yesterday he just kind of rolled it to the opposition.
I think our attack needs Firmino to play well more than the others and he seems to he struggling lately. But we know his quality and I'm sure he'll play his way in to form.
{Ed0333's Note - as I say mate I’m hopeful they’ll get the telepathic incisive passing back. One things for sure it really can’t get any worse. And when it does well start beating teams comfortably. I think the ball needs to be played quicker/slicker from midfield to the ‘Fab 3’ for some unknown reason we seem to be a bit pedestrian in that department this season and our performances reflect it. Another thing that is certain Adam Lalana is not the answer. Give me all the stick you want but I’m not a fan and he’s not even worthy of a place on the bench. I’d rather have Curtis Jones.
9.) 21 Oct 2018 19:25:03
Completely agree with you on that Ed regarding Lallana. At this level he's just not good enough and that's the harsh truth. I'm not blasting him, at one point he showed a bit of promise but now we're going for the title I really don't believe he's anywhere near good enough for us.
{Ed0333's Note - I’m not sure he’s even good enough for any top side in the Prem. You have to ask yourself would he get into the Spurs, City, United, Chelsea, Arsenal teams? He’s living on past glories and those fleeting moments of magic were absolute eons ago, and if anybody thinks he’s gonna have a Renaissance then imo your sadly mistaken. He should never have been bought in the first place by Brenda as he is what the term ‘luxury player’ was coined for. Anyway more importantly Salah how are you? I haven’t been editing for a while and think I’ve missed a major part your convalescence period. Are you up and about doing stuff outside or still house bound? Wishing you a speedy recovery to full health mate.
10.) 22 Oct 2018 06:41:44
Ed0333, I'd agree with all of that mate, well said.
Ah I'm not bad mate thank you very much for asking, things are looking good, got a few daft dr appointments this week and maybe I'll be cleared for work in a few weeks but won't be able to start until December now anyway as I have a really busy November ahead. It's been a really harsh few months but we're getting there now :) I hope life is treating you well Ed?
{Ed0333's Note - I’m good thanks Salah. I’ve been traveling quite a bit recently so haven’t been editing as much so didn’t know what all you reprobates have been getting up to. Glad things are looking up for you mate and no doctors appointment is daft when it comes to your health fella. I’m sure a few sparkling Liverpool FC performances will perk you up no end?
11.) 23 Oct 2018 10:18:59
Glad to hear you are doing well Ed mate, I had wondered where you had got to! I thought maybe Harry had got you back and captured you ;) .
Yeah you're right mate I'm just fed up of them to be honest, in and out of the Dr's like a bloody yoyo and to be honest half of it is so unnecessary but they do a great job so I shouldn't moan about them.
The worst part at the moment is I have to go and see a psychiatrist to make sure I'm fine mentally, work demanded it and I have only this morning found out I now need to do it weekly until I go back lol it's BS if you ask me mate, I'm not happy about it at all. They're only doing their jobs which I get but my god they make you depressed! I don't like the environment of it at all, mind you, the lady is a bit of alright so that's a bonus. (I hope my wife isn't reading, I'll be dead later if so ;) )
Sorry for the rant mate, I could go on and on because a lot has happened recently but I'll shut up now lol, I hope you have/ have had a great day. Stay safe Ed333, great to see you editing again mate.

Wait, is it true, Ten Slaps is out?
{Ed025's Note - it is true Oli..
2.) 28 Oct 2024 13:58:03
Oli why do you call him ten slaps? I'm cautious I've got old and missing a really obvious reference ?.
3.) 28 Oct 2024 14:38:40
It's 'prolly' because he's bald, WYred.
But if someone says to Oli Liverpool have not played anyone yet, he's the one pulling his hair out.
4.) 28 Oct 2024 16:03:38
@WYred, It's cos got he got Slapped Ten times after conceding Ten goals to LFC in two games (7-0 and 3-0). Also, for running his mouth and disrespecting Anfield before the 7-0 result.
It has never had anything to do with him being bald as I do not attack people's physical appearances. It's not like he can control the fact that he is bald, can he?
So your joke fell flat again, @Rigsby. I propose you leave the comedy to the specialists.

Van Nistelrooy named interim, ManU want Thomas Frank per espn.

C0ffan for a guy who likes to talk down to managers lecturing them on what they should and shoudn't do (which is rich cos he used to be a manager, a crap one at that), I would agree that he should take the position. But I know he won't.
9.) 28 Oct 2024 18:32:08
Sorry, Ol; the Ten Slaps name makes sense now. Because we only played United under Ten Slaps twice and won 3 nil and 7 nil, didn't we? One of them being at Old Toilet, obviously.
I propose you leave comedy to the specialists, too.
10.) 28 Oct 2024 18:50:27
What's wrong with the two of you? You know better than that. You know damn well that we get "specialist" level comedy every single day, on here, from all the usual sources. Why're you being suddenly so selective? ??.
11.) 29 Oct 2024 05:08:28
@COff, did you mean Gary or Phil? Actually the two of them together with Scholes as co-managers would make a great comedy act.

It's easy to forget how rank rotten we were before klopp arrived. Hoping and praying to somehow qualify for the champions League instead of having a genuine chance of winning it. I can only assume the fans who moan about not making a signing or a dropped point here or there weren't around in those days!
2.) 28 Sep 2024 15:31:57
Defo bad times and shows how far we have come, thing is even that was a step up from the likes of Paul Konchesky and Christian Poulsen under Roy Hodgson. God we were awful after Rafa left. Absolute Low point of of the club during my time as a fan anyway.
3.) 28 Sep 2024 19:43:29
Spot on and it tends to be the telly clapping, non match going FSG out brigade piping up.
4.) 28 Sep 2024 20:02:44
You raise an interesting point Rugby, but fans want the best for the team. I recall how close we were under Rafa and when we had Suarez and co, then we fell off a cliff for not supplementing the team. We’re in a great spot currently, but you lose a few key players and teams can crumble. If we continue to build in a shrewd way and spend on “quality” when ultimately required then there’s no issue.
5.) 28 Sep 2024 20:24:32
Westwood, our squad was awful after Rafa left because Rafa left the squad poor.
6.) 28 Sep 2024 20:39:52
In reality @Frode “fans want the best for the team” generally manifests itself as “fans want what they think is best for the team” which can be quite a different thing.
7.) 28 Sep 2024 22:22:24
Indeed, WDW.

9.) 29 Sep 2024 14:05:27
Not really Peg. Rafa left a squad containing Reina, Agger, Skrtel, Carragher, Johnson, Aurelio, Mascherano, Leiva, Gerrard, Meireles, Rodriquez, Babel, Kuyt and Torres. It was only under Roy, Dalglish and Rodgers (save bringing in Suarez, Sturridge and Sterling coming through) that the squad really started falling apart.
20 Sep 2024 10:15:10
Just heard we've signed yet another keeper! called Alisson, he's like our Alisson but without a beard. :)
1.) 20 Sep 2024 10:43:48
On the subject of Alison, Slot has said he’s a major doubt for tomorrow with injury.
2.) 20 Sep 2024 10:53:14
Also saw that, JK. Hoping it's not serious mate, with all these games coming up.
3.) 20 Sep 2024 15:46:14
If he’s injured we’ll have to play the other Alison.
4.) 20 Sep 2024 16:35:26
Ron, would that be Alison Wonderland?

He’s always loved an injury our Ali ?.

Indeed, Salah. "Beardless" Ali is going to have a fight on his hands trying to keep the no. 1 spot when "Beardful" Ali comes back.
16 Sep 2024 08:47:57
Ed1, will there be a match review mate? completely understand if there isn't this time around of course.
{Ed001's Note - yes mate. The result actually makes it easier to think of something different to say!}
1.) 16 Sep 2024 09:28:13
Ah get in! nice one Ed1, always look forward to them but at the same time, for your sake I hope to Christ you didn't have to watch it again! that'd just be unfair lol. Hope your day is a good one mate.
{Ed001's Note - I am just about to watch it again now for it. Should be .... fun.}
2.) 16 Sep 2024 09:54:55
Your a braver man than me ed1,that's all I can say.

4.) 16 Sep 2024 11:16:02
Was exactly waiting for this conversation. :-)
I couldn't get to watch full match with constant distraction but now feel that it was very much welcome.
Really poor from top to bottom. But credit to Forest and Nuno. They believed they could get something out of it and ended up getting all 3 points.
5.) 16 Sep 2024 11:44:07
Ed save yourself the pain we have another game tomorrow night and hopefully the team right all the wrongs.
Will be interesting to see Slots selection after a loss and if he makes changes.
6.) 16 Sep 2024 11:52:29
I feel sorry for those who paid to watch it. I couldn't be there Saturday, so I dodged a bullet.
7.) 16 Sep 2024 12:19:36
You absolutely did, Rome. I can't remember the last time I felt so frustrated watching a game tbh. Everything we did was just off.
8.) 16 Sep 2024 12:04:45
I think we all expect a couple of changes. Certainly not wholesale; after all, it's AC Milan in the CL not Walsall in the Carabao.
9.) 16 Sep 2024 12:29:58
I've only seen brief highlights, Dracred. I listened to the whole commentary on 5live. Another point of note, and you were there to clarify, was the lack of atmosphere. Our highest PL attendance as well. This isn't a new phenomenon as it's been going on for years, I know. I went to most of the Europa games last season and the atmosphere at those games was superb, only due to the away fans. They were fantastic, bordering on deranged!

It changes things a bit, doesn't it, Ed01?

Rome I watched on TV and the supporters sounded great to. First half at least. Perhaps the mics were just well positioned. Those who were there will know better.

I missed the game as I was playing football for my own team at the time, and I can assure you I will not be watching that game ever! I'll read Ed's review when it's done and that'll do me. I will however be watching tomorrow night and looking for a reaction though!

What position you play MK?
14.) 16 Sep 2024 17:55:13
I’m with you MK I couldn’t be there and I have no intention of ever watching it.
As far as I’m concerned we smashed Utd in their own backyard in our last outing.

Match review should be straightforward - "We were f*****g awful, on to the next please. "

JK23, normally CF or RW. I’m more injury prone than Aurelio though ? I dread to think what Victor would call me if his local grass roots team signed me.

Match review, LFC didn’t turn up to play,

Match review - we played like Klopp and Pep were still here from last season. Everything that we started doing in the last few games i. e narrow aggressive defence, being brave in possession, turning and getting at the backline, crossing when we have the opportunity to do it, we literally stopped doing all of it. Back to good old boring keep ball with no flair, creativity, bravery or self-responsibility to go and win the game. Slot and these players need to realise that when you are Liverpool, 95% the emphasis is going to be on you to go and win the game, not just pretend like you should because you have more possession. We carry on like that and yeah we'll get top 4 by boring our way through the league, but we'll win nothing along the way. In short, it was footy like that that made me happy to see the back of Rodgers and happy to see the back of Pep and Klopp from last year. I hope Slot absolutely lost his marbles at the team, especially Salah. No exaggeration the worst game I have seen him produce in a red shirt.

Here’s my review.
Gravenberch played ok.
Becker made a couple of good saves.
The rest were below average.
We made Forest look half decent.
Forest hit us on the break, Becker was beaten too easily.
Salah, Jota and Szob were garbage.
Subs didn’t make any impact.

ed1 - be interested to read your thoughts on the game. I feel like I need to watch it again to see if my initial thoughts are accurate. My memory of the game is that we positioned trent at 6 in that inverted role a lot more than we have in previous 3 games. maybe partly to do with hot Forest set up, but I think the impact of that was the distances between the rest of the team became so massive that we never really got any fluidity going.
I much prefer Grav in that role because his technique and dribbling is better than trent in the middle of the pitch and he can break the lines either via a pass or driving with the ball. I didn't like it anyways and felt it got even worse when we moved trent to 6 after bringing Conor on.
The other thing about it is that it looked more like a single 6, rather than 2 CMs/ CDMs which again I don't think is a stable way for us to set-up and leaves too much for the 6 to do.

Sorry Rome, I was watching on the telly. I'm not from the UK, much less Liverpool, so being able to watch a match live is still a pipe dream for me ? But as Dirty Mic said, the atmosphere sounded alright. There were cheers and songs throughout the first half but it did get slightly more muted as the second half went on.
22.) 17 Sep 2024 07:43:14
Sorry for my misunderstanding, Dracred. Being someone who is lucky enough to be able to get to games, the atmosphere isn't what it used to be, I'm afraid, despite there being more people in the ground than there's ever been. This is never more evident than when we come to play sides that we are expected to beat.

Will Ed001 be doing a review of MK Scouser's game?
27 Aug 2024 20:47:57
Welcome to Liverpool, Mamardashvili.
27 Oct 2024 01:23:58
Completely agree with you Ron.

This debate of who is most important shows one thing. All of them are. For me though yeah it's Trent. Now he's in the madrid newspaper. I think he's as good as gone. Imagine if them three all leave? expect a poor season next year is all I will say.
Gobsmacking. But the way we do things one day we will wake up to seeing them all sign a new contract lol. Not going to happen.
Said it before and will say it again, I get the impression they were hired to reduce costs. Wages in this case, it makes no sense. We can discuss it until we're blue in the face, none of us have an idea what's going on but so far it's not looking good. On the pitch it's looking good but if you go and lose 3 key players in one window it will most certainly make Slot's job a lot harder.
Players come and go, I've been around long enough to see it but this is just crazy.
Who do we replace Trent with? Bradley? the young lad looks brilliant but my word he's not ready to fill them shoes. Who can defend like VVD - I'm talking realisticly, someone within our reach? Salah, the goals and assists he provides, they'll be gone.
Very concerning.

Social media for you ed2, littered with nonsense mate.
24 Sep 2024 00:55:44
007, how many you had mate?
19 Sep 2024 12:47:32
Lol exactly solidstate, it's shocking mate.
08 Nov 2024 04:34:38
Lol neither would I, John.
07 Nov 2024 00:42:44
I think we can deal with Real Madrid quite easily. The only team I'd be concerned about at the moment would be Barcelona, they are looking pretty special. Any other team, yeah bring them on.
07 Nov 2024 00:37:17
I think we'll win it as well mate.
06 Nov 2024 14:07:21
It's good to hear he is doing well mate, hopefully his form continues, only young I think 18? Good luck to the lad.
06 Nov 2024 13:02:36
Another? it's his first assist all season I thought?
