Liverpool Banter 2

Why does anyone still give Ornstein any cuttings? The guy is a fraud who comes out with nonsense to create clicks for his news outlets. He’s as credible as a fart in the wind. Barcola, a right wing and another 1 / 2 players are coming.

22 Aug 2026 18:26:42
Let everyone say their piece right?

22 Aug 2026 18:40:23
Sure, but when it's to create traffic with false claims, then why should we?

22 Aug 2026 18:47:11
Which claims are false?

22 Aug 2026 22:15:16
Maybe go and read them, give him some traffic...

23 Aug 2026 00:16:16
I assume you already did that, @Iamthe...?

22 Aug 2026 16:27:32
Both Barcola and Mbaye out of squad… Looks like the double is on. 👍

22 Aug 2026 16:25:26
Lol these Twitter t***ters.
Barcola is done.

Also if we can get over last year's incident Martinelli would be a great signing.

22 Aug 2026 18:27:53
I wouldn't take Martinelli on a free transfer.

22 Aug 2026 19:09:43
Martinelli would be a good signing? Would he? Would he f***!

22 Aug 2026 15:10:02
Where did Djimi T. get the news that we have walked away from Barcola? Both Barcola and Mbaye have been left out of the squad for tomorrow as they're both expected to leave. Liv are still active on the deal. I think we will see this one through personally. Cheers.

22 Aug 2026 16:57:58
He made it up.

22 Aug 2026 16:42:48
Where did he get the news? Clickbait sites.

22 Aug 2026 17:58:28
To be fair, mate, they've been left out of the squad for the last couple of matches.
Everyone thought they'd be jetting over when they didn't face Villa.

22 Aug 2026 15:09:53
Carrick In!!

22 Aug 2026 16:54:20
That result doesn't county as they had midweek football, oh, wait, never mind.

22 Aug 2026 16:57:14
It's a lesson to us, we have to heed "Low Block" "Low Block" "Low Block".

90% of PL teams play it, even the Champions Arsenal, until we crack the low block tactics we ain't going anywhere, as last season proved!

Fortress Anfield is a must this season also, "Low Block" or "No Low Block", another Cardinal Sin is conceding sloppy goals to low block teams (corners, throw in's, set plays, cheap free kicks around ye own penalty area).

22 Aug 2026 17:20:43
I agree, 007, we need to score against other teams and not let them score against us.
This football lark is easy. 😉

22 Aug 2026 18:24:44
007, great point, lad. Attack Attack Attack, do it at pace. With every single pass a forward one (if it's on), solid back 4 and sitting number 6. Pace on the wings and shots nor Shots, and if you are able to have a shot.

Score goals by having shots. It can come off a deflection, who cares?

Earn the right to play. Do not keep possession for the sake of it. If we must let the oppo come on to us!!! Break on them. We can do Low Blocks, right?

22 Aug 2026 18:28:50
If only we'd thought of telling Arne Slot that little nugget last season.

22 Aug 2026 14:44:44
Wow, all the ITK’s posting at the same time, I’m swelling up. 😂

22 Aug 2026 16:43:08
Easy tiger, no need to talk about that on a message board.

22 Aug 2026 17:05:47
Well, at least they have got the "Town Halls" to post.

You must be the life and soul of the party.

Or is it because the Tigers gave you a mauling this afternoon, Mr Bean!

22 Aug 2026 14:41:26
Hi Fellas,
As there doesn't seem to a Liverpool Rumours league for fantasy premier league this year, I've created an unofficial one.

Liverpool Rumours (Unofficial) League code: a9gxtf

Thanks in advance and cheers.

Am I the only one who is excited about the next Shappy article “How the loss to newly promoted favourites for the drop Hull City is a blessing in disguise.”

22 Aug 2026 14:41:44
"An advantage from adversity."

"We're in Hull but we'll make it back."

"Carrick knows what he's doing, it's all part of his cunning plan."

22 Aug 2026 14:54:22
They won't make it back.

All the trains have been cancelled! 🤣

22 Aug 2026 14:57:16
Losing is the new winning.

22 Aug 2026 15:11:27
I always read Shappy articles. I find it amazing how he is so positive all the time.
When they were at bottom end of table and had Almorin as coach, he was still trying to find the slightest glimmer of hope. Haha.

22 Aug 2026 15:43:43
A true fan... We've all been there, have to admire it.

22 Aug 2026 15:44:52
Almorin played for Newcastle, didn't WestYorkshirered? 🤔

22 Aug 2026 14:25:32
Carricks at the wheeeel.

22 Aug 2026 15:23:28
Don't mock the inflicted, and wait for the next installment when they revert to a back five and Carrick comes out in a long coat ala Jose.

22 Aug 2026 16:30:02
Will be even worse when they have UCL games midweek, and Europa League games after xmas.

"Car-wreck" five years as Middlesborough manager and could not gain them promotion to the PL.

Totally disagree with the above section reference Amorim, "he is a superb coach" played five games against Gardiola the Man City manager when they were in their pomp W2, D2, lost 1, got rid of all the dross (Wieghorst, Antony, Lindelof, Garnacho etc) last summer window, when he got the sack, I came on here and said "Thank God for that". The worst thing they could ever do. Two games at Anfield in the PL, won 1, drew 1.

He is not a "Mug" as the above poster suggests, he has a stellar CV. Had he not got the Man Utd job they would have dropped the season last.

He left Carrick a good side as Carrick never made one signing last year, they finished third with Amorim's side after finishing 15th the season before. Man Utd now has all the similarities to a certain Dutch coach we had!

A similar fate could be waiting for Moneychester tomorrow versus Bournemouth, the kipper on Haaland after the 3-0 loss in the Community Shield was a "get me out of here ASAP", all the rats jump off a ship first when it's sinking ( e.g. Gardiola, Silva ).
