I don't claim to be in the know, but I am hearing there will be no incomings this month.
I have fairly strong connections to the LFC women's set up, and it is through these that I heard this.
Don't have any idea how they would know, but I'm sharing the info anyway.

KBL

1.) 06 Jan 2025 14:31:35
I am telling you now categorically there will be incomings.


2.) 06 Jan 2025 14:35:11
I believe this rumour. I don't think there will be any incoming players. Hopefully wrong of course but just can't see it.

Thanks for sharing mate.


3.) 06 Jan 2025 14:50:59
There won’t be any incomings. That’s three windows on the bounce where we’ve done nothing. Not that I’m surprised. When we needed a centre back in 20/ 21 we didn’t act until the very end of the window and our title challenge was gone. Even less chance of it now. Best hope that Gravenberch doesn’t get fatigue or injury, as we are very thin on quality in midfield beyond our starters.


4.) 06 Jan 2025 15:28:42
The only solution is FSG/ Henry and TAA all go ASAP.


5.) 06 Jan 2025 15:43:07
Buying players in January is difficult for most clubs never mind Liverpools shambolic transfer committee.


6.) 06 Jan 2025 15:53:38
That’s obviously likely to be the case. Slot only really uses 4 midfielders, if the inevitable happens and one gets injured it means the others will be over played as happened last year. Hopefully Slot will rest as many as possible for Forest. I would send VVD, Salah and Grav on hols for a week.


7.) 06 Jan 2025 16:29:25
If we don’t strengthen this window, then the club is being run by idiots. I say this as I still don’t believe we have strong enough team to challenge in four fronts. Curtis jones, together with Trent, was invisible against man Ure, and has a habit of disappearing in big games. Tslobo is injury prone, only Macca and gberch are I believe are playing at a decent level. Elliot has been coming on as a sub most times, so it’s clear our midfield alone isn’t really that strong depthwise. Then you have our back four…. robbo is becoming a liability and Trent clearly isn’t all there, especially after his abysmal showing yesterday. Personally I think Bradley Made an impact when he come on but quansah and Gomez aren’t anywhere near the level of konate and vvd. So there are some holes to fill that need filling especially if we want to challenge on all fronts. The first thing to do would be to sort out the contract issue for salah, vvd and Trent but out of the 3, I would prioritise salah and vvd over Trent. I think they are more important to the team. I think if Trent was to go, we would still cope and have a great replacement for him in Connor Bradley. But I do think we need to buy another cb who can also play lb, and a midfielder. I think upfront we are well stocked, and wait till the summer to buy a new forward and sell on Nunez.


8.) 06 Jan 2025 16:29:28
Just say it how it is, clee - it's hughes' fault. Let Rigsby know. ?.


9.) 06 Jan 2025 16:59:59
no spend equals the end.


10.) 06 Jan 2025 17:46:08
Was it really 2021 we last signed a defender? ?.


11.) 07 Jan 2025 00:15:48
Shambolic is a strong word, Salah, but if you feel that strongly why not use it, mate?
Six days in and no shiny new toys so I can understand yours coming out of the pram.
Richard may prove to be Hughes-less (see what I did there? ) and you may be judging him after half a season in the job but I remember the part he played in the appointment of Arne Slot.
You can choose to ignore that and be led to believe that it was all down to Edwards but I'll stick to facts and reason whilst enjoying your vendetta against a man you know hardly anything about.


12.) 07 Jan 2025 02:17:17
Vendetta? there's certainly no vendetta Rigsby mate, don't flatter yourself. I just disagree with almost everything you say. Simple as, we can't agree with everything everyone says lol. Vendetta ? good one mate.

Regarding Slot, if Hughes had a part to play in appointing him then sure he deserves credit for it but what's his job? his job is to handle the transfers. What transfers did he handle in summer that were relevant? I don't throw my toys out of the pram over such matters mate, still very early in the month and I believe we won't be signing anybody, if we do? great if we don't? it's expected no big deal - we're talking about Hughes here.

You support him, I don't. That's as simple as it gets. I really hope you can prove to be right on him and he turns out excellent for us, who knows? it's a possibility but I just don't see it at all.


13.) 07 Jan 2025 07:46:48
Your vendetta is against Hughes not me, Salah ?.
I used the word 'vendetta' to get a reaction out of you. It's like using the word 'shambolic'.
I've no loyalty to Hughes; I don't know much about him but he doesn't deserve the stick he gets; not yet anyway. If it's all about transfers what shiny new toys did you not get?
Which ones did you want that would have improved us?

Out of interest, why don't you support our sporting director, Salah? He works for the club that you support but you don't support him even though you know very little about him? And you admit that he hasn't even had chance to prove himself?
Best of all though is, your username when Richard Hughes advised Michael Edwards and Liverpool on the signing of Mohamed Salah, Salah ?.


14.) 07 Jan 2025 11:55:44
I've said why I don't support him many times and you've heard it many times, Rigsby.

No vendetta against Hughes either mate lol I just don't think he's very good at his job and I include his time at Bournemouth in that as well.

You say you have no loyalty to him, what a load of nonsense that is ? good try though ? almost every single day you are commenting somewhere praising him for things he hasn't even done.

Who signed Salah and who appointed Slot, Rigsby? was it Hughes or am I missing something? genuinly interested because all I can see is he made recommendations which again, anybody can do especially if you're in the know and in that type of position where your identifying talent it'd be kind of crazy to not recommend a player like Salah would it not? anybody in his shoes would be doing the same.

Was Hughes part of Liverpool mate when Salah was brought in or when Slot was appointed?

You have nothing to go on you're just trying to convince yourself he's going to be good for us and that's absolutely fine but you can't be acting like he's gods gift when his job is to recruit new talent and he's recruited none yet. When he ends up leaving the club we take a look at what he's done.


15.) 07 Jan 2025 13:20:14
So when he leaves the club we take a look at what he's done? You said you don't support him and you don't rate him now.

You say he didn't do a good job at Bournemouth. How are Bournemouth doing since he left the club? You know, when you like to judge someone? Hughes bought players for Bournemouth that made they made big profits on. I've named them before and they are not hard to find.

Anyone could have recommended Salah, Salah. But they didn't. Hughes recommended him and Alisson to Edwards even though he was at Bournemouth. I think Salah was unlikely to sign for Bournemouth, Salah.

Hughes was serving his time at Bournemouth when he was tasked with looking for Klopp's successor. He met Slot in April when all the talk was about Amorim. Obviously, it wasn't just down to Hughes as it wasn't just down to Edwards.
If you don't believe me about the part Hughes played then take it from Slot himself. He said 'Richard wanted Liverpool to bring me in'.

Now, your turn, Salah.
What shiny new toys didn't you get in the summer that would have improved us?
Is it ok to judge them even though they are not even at the club nevermind after they have the left the club? ?.


16.) 07 Jan 2025 14:24:08
We're going around in circles here mate and I don't have the time for it or interest. Petty at it's finest trying to convince people he's doing well when the vast majority can see he's done nothing lol. Stick to your guns though mate, you don't see it how many others do so that's fine. I'm sure you're on Hughes' Christmas card list mate ??.


17.) 07 Jan 2025 14:33:48
Get a room salah and rigsby!


18.) 07 Jan 2025 15:08:08
I'm not trying to convince you that Hughes is doing a good job, Salah.
It's too early to say.
I'm asking you to convince me how he's doing a bad job and how he did a bad job at Bournemouth.
It's fine if you can't or you don't want to and, as always, I appreciate the exchange of views and banter.

Hearing new info that Postecoglu is favourite to be our new manager, and not Amorim.

Anyone else hearing this?

KBL

1.) 09 Apr 2024 19:19:44
Amorim is 90% done. Always that 10% but we aren’t talking to Ange currently.


2.) 09 Apr 2024 20:04:56
I really hope not. Can't see him leaving Tottenham if I'm honest, especially this early, think he still thinks he has a lot to do there.


3.) 09 Apr 2024 21:21:58
no chance.


4.) 10 Apr 2024 09:46:23
Always intrigued about what people hear and where!?


5.) 10 Apr 2024 12:53:19
I happen to know for a fact that Liverpool is Ange’s ultimate goal so he would jump at the chance.

I hope we don’t go for him though he still has a lot to prove for me.


6.) 10 Apr 2024 13:41:35
I’m intrigued how anyone can say that it’s 90% done.


7.) 10 Apr 2024 14:01:15
Your right Irish, its 95% .


8.) 10 Apr 2024 16:32:52
[[ LOOKS IN THE MIRROR ]]

“Big Ange new Liverpool manager”.

[[ logs on ]]

I’m hearing Ange is getting the job now.


9.) 10 Apr 2024 22:36:25
Irish Rover - trust me, I know.


10.) 11 Apr 2024 09:05:02
1jj - trust me, no you don't.


11.) 11 Apr 2024 10:52:39
I think he will set us back tactically
Offensively, he is at best on par with Klopp
Defensively, worse off
Personality, not sure how people will take to him after his high horse nonsense after the game against us
People management, I’m unsure about that too
So a no for me but I’m not in charge.


12.) 11 Apr 2024 14:05:50
68% of all statistics are made up.


13.) 11 Apr 2024 14:39:58
KBL your post won’t date well.


14.) 11 Apr 2024 17:01:29
1jj Amorim has come out and denied any agreement or even a meeting with the club. Of course he could just be lying.


15.) 10 Apr 2024 19:26:58
Hope not. Can’t stand that man, absolute hypocrite him, he was happy to say we should soak up the bad decisions against Spurs but whined like a little girl when it happened to Spurs. He can stay as far away as possible. Can’t see FSG being as stupid as to employ that man.


16.) 11 Apr 2024 18:46:59
Wouldn’t touch ange with a barge pole he’s just not good enough maaate.


17.) 12 Apr 2024 08:15:54
1jj - I'm not saying that Amorim won't be our next manager, but I am saying that you don't know one way or another - unless of course you are his agent, or employed in a most senior capacity at LFC.


18.) 12 Apr 2024 09:00:27
KBL so if he doesn’t join you’ll say told you so and if he does join you’ll say I didn’t know. Genius.

You have no idea who I am or what I know.


19.) 12 Apr 2024 11:33:22
1jj - why would I say I told you so? I've never said he is or isn't coming. You've got a 50% chance of being right (or wrong) . If you know he's coming why only rate it at 90%.

I don't have any idea who you are or what you know, but vice versa my fellow red.


20.) 12 Apr 2024 11:44:18
1jj - why would I say told you so? I've never said he will come or not. Let's face it you have a 50% chance of being right, and a 50% chance of being wrong.

Amorim may well come, and if he does, no doubt you'll be on here telling all and sundrie how you were right.

I don't know you or what you know, and vice versa, but my comments about you knowing for sure that he is coming is led by all the cli ckbait I feel. I hope you are right though, because I think it would be a good appointment.


 

 

18 Mar 2024 22:15:51
I'm reading that Nunez has pulled out of the Uruguay squad with a reported hamstring injury, and also Diaz has a similar problem.

Hope neither is true, but that is what I have read.

Anyone else heard anything?

KBL

1.) 19 Mar 2024 00:48:45
I wish he would go with Uruguay. Put him in the shop window.


2.) 19 Mar 2024 05:14:27
What you been smoking Ron?


3.) 19 Mar 2024 10:54:41
Ron!? Really!?


4.) 19 Mar 2024 11:13:46
It actually seems to be positive news in that Uruguay are working with LFC in managing Nunez and resting him so he is fit for rest of the LFC season and then the Copa America.


5.) 19 Mar 2024 11:25:31
@Ron, i agree, anyone who does not turn up with games vs ManU deserved to be sold.


6.) 19 Mar 2024 11:26:30
Ron has lost the plot have a word with yourself.


7.) 19 Mar 2024 12:12:58
You know your opinion is dead wrong when Leekuanyew agrees with you :')


8.) 19 Mar 2024 13:45:05
Lol spot on dracred, my God I don't think I'd ever be seen again on here if leek agreed with me. Would be too embarrassing. Ron give your head a good wobble mate and get over it you silly sausage :) .


9.) 19 Mar 2024 14:40:20
Leeky is the Garth Crooks of this site.


10.) 19 Mar 2024 15:54:59
Ron's recent posts have me picturing Eamonn Dunphy's "hang on, you've jumped the fence baby! " moment with Liam Brady.


11.) 19 Mar 2024 19:47:51
100 percent. Leek agrees and you know its bs!


12.) 19 Mar 2024 23:25:18
The amount of burn that Thunderbird gave leek there he can heat his house for the next ten years without paying another gas bill.


13.) 20 Mar 2024 08:36:59
on the assumption we have the same source via the world wide web, then I'v enot heard anything different.


14.) 20 Mar 2024 15:33:31
For naysayers, let's stick to facts, not emotions or whatever "burns"

i ask only 1 question, did Nunez play well in ManU game? Yes or No.

In the biggest derby that determine quruple, he failed to turn up. I rest my case your honour.

{Ed025's Note - as a Liverpool supporter you have no "Honour"lee, and as for Ron im very surprised mate, yes he never played well but has been one of your most effective players this season and scored a lot of goals, i get the disappointment with the loss to Utd but this is knee jerk and i have to say i expected better from such a seasoned poster like yourself..


15.) 20 Mar 2024 16:20:16
He assisted mac he had a shot saved which led to the second goal, and u say he never turned up, nunez is pure quality and will get at least to 22 goals or even 25 which is up there with sadio n Bobby numbers, I like most here was upset about losing on Sunday esp as we should have wrapped in up in second half but you cannot win them all, we have a brilliant team and will only get better as we move forward and was you saying the same when Nunuez scored the winner against forest?


16.) 20 Mar 2024 17:23:45
@Leekuanyew

Did any of them play well against Utd? They were all off the pace, but they are bound to have a bad day at the office once in a while, just a pity it was against Utd. They have played 7 games in 21 days maybe that has something to do with it.


17.) 20 Mar 2024 18:10:04
Spoken like a man well burned Leek.


18.) 20 Mar 2024 22:04:34
Marty McFly 11, 2shoes, Klopp4pm, Dracred, Salah, Something Red,

I’ll just collect these receipts for when the new manager comes in.

I don’t rate him, we all see football differently.
If you can’t handle that, it’s your problem not mine.

If we put Nunez on the transfer list, I think we’d struggle to recoup 40 million. If some team offered 40 million I’d take it.


19.) 21 Mar 2024 01:55:21
If you are proven right and Nunez is deemed to be a lemon, I would willingly come on here to say you were right and I was wrong. I just don't see that happening though as I think there has been more things good about his game than there has been bad.

Conversely, I would hope that you would do the same too when Nunez shines and performs under the new manager ;)


20.) 21 Mar 2024 13:04:33
Nunez is improving constantly. If you can't see it, then like Klopp often says, I can't help you. He is well on his way to becoming elite. Still has a few steps to make but he is making them all the time.

He also played a big part in both goals against United so he was far from bad. Really good first half but tired.

He is well on his way. I had a bit of concern a year ago if he could make the necessary steps but his improvement this year has allayed any of those fears. I have no fear now he will become a top class player.


21.) 21 Mar 2024 13:05:18
The Nunez of last season I could see your point a bit Ron but at times he’s been fantastic this season so no you’re way off base and plain wrong.


22.) 21 Mar 2024 15:12:02
leekuanyew. your nick is blemishing the good name of the legendary leader.
played 1 bad game, out you go?
and for the Man U game, is he the only bad player?
Gakpo was shocking when he came on. Sell him by your logic.
Bradley was not up to speed. Sell him.
Elliot lost the ball which lead to winner for Man U. Sell him.

Shocking post.


23.) 21 Mar 2024 18:19:58
Nunez is more a 'battering ram' type of striker. His strength and ability to hold off other defenders whilst bringing in other players on i. e. Salah, Jota, Diaz. He mixes it with the defenders so that they draw onto him and allows others to score.

His scoring record recently has been fantastic. He is a real team player. He is unselfish.

He will get better and he is only 24.

What's not to like?


24.) 21 Mar 2024 18:31:27
Ron, if you want to 'save receipts' go right ahead. I should warn you though that I'm waiting to see will a certain poster who claimed an ex-LFC player working in punditry told him we're only signing free transfers and one other cheap player and will sell Gomez and Kelleher to balance the books last summer will crop up on here again.

So when it comes to being a total Sad Ken who remembers everything, you'd do well to get the better of me. I still remember bs people came out with when Rafa Benitez was the manager.


25.) 21 Mar 2024 19:42:18
Now to be fair I am a big fan of Nunez. However if his recent injuries continue I think we have seen the best of him.
Obviously I hope he's never injured but these type of injuries can really affect his play. He's not an out and out goal scorer.
So if he's not scoring goals and loses his pace and that bit of strength he won't bring enough to the pitch.


26.) 21 Mar 2024 21:52:53
Ron and Leek I couldn’t have a more opposite opinion to you pair regarding Nunez but keep your opinions coming.


 

 

13 Jun 2022 07:19:10
Benfica have announced to the relevant authorities in Portugal (a legal requirement) the agreement to sell Nunez to LFC.

So it is done subject to the medical.

KBL

1.) 13 Jun 2022 07:52:57
I still won't believe it's done until he s played three seasons with us.


2.) 13 Jun 2022 09:00:03
And don't forget the Liverpool lean?.


3.) 13 Jun 2022 13:05:36
He's faster than Torres according to his stats. I mean not many have been faster than Torres. He's going to be lightning fast.

{Ed077's Note - what stats? Is there even stats(video games withstanding) out there of acceleration/burst of pace?


 

 

08 Aug 2021 11:58:45
We're offloading players to balance the Konate fee.

I really don't see any other first team ready players coming in during this window.

We all know how FSG work.

You never know Keita ight surprise is all this season as he should get more game time with Gini gone - if he can stay fit.

KBL

1.) 08 Aug 2021 12:14:12
Keita? 2 hopes there Bob and no! ’.


2.) 08 Aug 2021 12:21:10
FSG seemed to work quite well with Alison and VVD both of who cost world record fees for their positions when bought.


3.) 08 Aug 2021 12:19:50
When Keita is fit Klopp often plays him, he is just not fit often enough. How do FSG work? Last year they bought 3 players, 2 first teamers. This year they bought Konate of course they will buy another player if Klopp wants one or two.


4.) 08 Aug 2021 12:29:22
Another season of the comedy “football” stylings of Naby Keita, sigh. Hopefully the Penny will drop within the club that he’s utterly hopeless and be sold next summer after another disappointing season. £50m down the khazi.


5.) 08 Aug 2021 12:41:15
Slop slating our best player on form.


6.) 08 Aug 2021 12:50:34
No he’s absolutely spot on. Keita is not good enough and has been nothing but a waste of time and money. Also, even when on form he’s not even close to our best player.


7.) 08 Aug 2021 13:00:32
West Derby Wanderer, you do realise that Coutinho’s fee paid for Allison and VVD.


8.) 08 Aug 2021 13:01:05
Has been in every game recently.


9.) 08 Aug 2021 13:39:43
I'm going to get behind the lad - if it wasn't for his injury record he'd be a far better player than Wijnaldum by now. Hopefully he can avoid any more lay-offs, and fulfil the potential we saw before he signed.


10.) 08 Aug 2021 13:50:57
IPC12 - you took the words right out of my mouth there!

WDW obviously doesn't realise that fact.

Markp08 - let's just wait and see. What I posted above is my opinion of course, and I could be wrong. 3 weeks to go to see if I am or not.


11.) 08 Aug 2021 14:17:32
Our form player it’s embarrassing to even hear or see people say that! Friendly games they mean Notting mix b match team against the same!
Keita is a klopp dud buy as 02 has said klopped cried for him and he got him he will stick by him too most disbelief!
That lad needs a solid boot in the hole!


12.) 08 Aug 2021 14:29:21
Kieta hasn’t been on form since he signed for us. He got his big move and big pay cheque and went straight into semi retirement.


13.) 08 Aug 2021 15:12:22
He’s a liverpool player who represents the club. Maybe afford him and the manager and the club a little respect! Fans? You give us a bad name. Sometimes things don’t work out as we all hope they would. That doesn’t mean you should turn into an arsehole because it’s hasn’t gone to plan. Fan = supported not some childish boo boy who knows f all about f all.


14.) 08 Aug 2021 15:28:43
We can’t sell Keita because no one will buy him but let’s keep abusing him, that’ll make him play better.


15.) 08 Aug 2021 15:54:24
I know Keita had a torrid time with injures and never really lived up to his true potential with us. While I'm fine if he's sold, but if he's not, let's hope he finally comes good. At the rate that we're signing players this season, we really need the existing players to step up. Rant all we want, if you love Liverpool, stand behind the team. Otherwise, you're free to support PSG or City.


16.) 08 Aug 2021 16:14:01
Posters like IPC12 and KBL amuse me. Do they think that the acquisition and decision to sell Coutinho was nothing to do with the club's management.


17.) 08 Aug 2021 16:18:34
Well said DAPred.


18.) 08 Aug 2021 17:16:45
You lot are embarrassing. constantly slagging off players and the owners. Really tiresome reading it all. Its called support for a reason and you lot clearly ain't supporters.


19.) 08 Aug 2021 17:17:54
Redman and thunderbird. well said, the others are a joke.


20.) 08 Aug 2021 18:00:49
Aye, its embarrassing all right. Its like nearly willing him to fail just so some can be proved right. Weird!
Its a week until the season starts, if he stays then support. He certainly won't get any better ridiculing him.


21.) 08 Aug 2021 19:18:22
We’re in year four of the Naby Keita project and he’s shown nothing in competitive matches in the previous years to suggest he’s got what it takes. It baffles me how people can be so gushing in praise and effusive of someone who has never put even a minute fraction of the hard work and effort that Gini Wijnaldum did and yet Gini used to come in for a lot of grief. If Keita left tomorrow, the club would not miss him, however I can be sure that Gini will be missed as he was reliable, always match fit and put a shift in, all things that Naby has never done.


22.) 08 Aug 2021 19:37:42
Supporters.


23.) 08 Aug 2021 20:11:25
Red planet? What are you talking about? You sell a player, you reinvest… isn’t that what a logical team does?


24.) 08 Aug 2021 20:30:02
IPC12 and KBL. In the 2 transfer windows we purchased VVD and Allison 'with the Coutinho money', we also purchased Keita, Fabinho and Shaq.
With other sales, we actually spent £70ish net, taking into account the Coutinho fee.


25.) 08 Aug 2021 20:43:30
Just wondering how FSG work - enlighten me.


26.) 08 Aug 2021 21:28:12
IPC12 I understand that outgoings at least notionally help balance the books and fund incomings yes.

I also understand - at a basic level at least, having sat at the back of the class when we did maths at school - that FSG invest in assets when they see an asset adding to the value of the club. I also understand that some assets are purchased based on the forecast return from future revenue streams. Over the past 18 months one of the revenue streams has been severely impacted, and as of now continues to be so. So, we don’t have enough money, or certainty of sufficient future match day revenue at the moment to ‘splash the cash’. Even if we did we are also stuck because of the issue of home grown / non-home grown players. Can’t say too much about this because I dropped geography before o-levels but I think it has something to do with coming from Widnes or further away.

I think though, given FSG being a company that is keen to make a profit on their assests and with the proof of the caliber of players they have brought into the club, the state of the art training complex they have built and the upgrades to the ground which will see us with a 67,000 capacity (and more income for us to all play wannabe Premier Manager each transfer window) that they deserve a bit more respect than they sometimes get on these crass threads that people start because we haven’t bought the latest name that some hack with no knowledge thinks up.

Anyway on we go - I read a bit earlier that we are thinking of bidding for some 34 year old Argentinian who is a feee agent …….

Don’t buy a Porsche if you can’t afford the petrol, John. If someone somewhere could really clarify how one of the most historical clubs, biggest names and very recently super successful with many record breaking sponsorship deals do not have a pot to p. in?


28.) 08 Aug 2021 23:08:46
They do have a pot to pee in. But it sprung a few leaks.

I did this management course a few years back and they were banging on about data leading to information leading to knowledge leading to wisdom and one of the things they covered in passing was a little thing about knowledge :

There are things you know that you know, for example, your name, address, date of birth.

There are things you know that you don’t know, for example how Margaret Thatcher got elected

There are things that you don’t know that you don’t know, for example as a football fan how the finances of an international brand Premier League football club works ….

Going for a few pints with my brother this afternoon. We do this only about 3/ 4 times a year, as we don't live near each other.

The last time we went out, and we were playing Bournemouth we beat them 9-0!

Here's hoping.

I’d be happy with 1-0 ?.

3 away games in our last 4 and 7 points clear at the top. When you consider we have only played the second half of each match - only joking!

17 to go, could it really be?

I don't know about anyone else, but I have a funny feeling that the Europa tie with Atalanta isn't over.

There's just something in the back of my mind that keeps telling me we can still get through, far fetched as that might seem.

I guess it's because there has to be some semblance of hope, otherwise no point in turning up.

We could be like a firework that didn't go off, and when you approach it, it explodes. Here's hoping we explode and don't implode.

Keep it up KBL we need some unapologetically positive people right now.

Anything can happen, but if we play the way we have been playing since the United defeat in the FA cup, we will lose another 3-0.


3.) 16 Apr 2024 13:46:50
Have the same feeling if we get back to our free flowing football. They won’t cope with us if we get anywhere close to our best.


4.) 16 Apr 2024 15:44:40
I have that weird sense that we don’t pick all our “first team” players and instead with let a few kids play.

Then they show us how it’s done.
Is Danns out injured or something. I’d like to see him given a go.

The way we’re playing - it’s completely finished. But with some brave big changes you never know.


5.) 16 Apr 2024 15:58:06
KBL we score in the first 15mins, anything can happen. We shall see.


6.) 16 Apr 2024 16:04:32
I agree with u Ron as regards danns I'm v surprised he hasn't got a run latel. I know he suffered concussion after forest game so he would've been ruled out for a while after that. but I would've thought in games of late he would've been worth a shot, in bits I've seen of him he looks what we need, cool and composed in front of goal.


7.) 16 Apr 2024 16:23:40
Start with:

Nunez on the left
Jota and Salah up top
Diaz on the right
442

Fully throttle in their face.

They have the ability to roll Atlanta over but they have to do something different and go at them.


8.) 16 Apr 2024 17:39:51
Ignoring the fact we start slowly, concede sloppy goals regularly, can’t put chances away and seem to be unable to keep a clean sheet to even the most feeble opponents, yeah, we’ve every chance.


9.) 16 Apr 2024 21:06:14
I desperately want us to win. Just see us losing 2 or 3 nil. I believe if we had played them earlier in the season we would be beating them relatively easy.
This game has unfortunately came too late for us in our season.


10.) 16 Apr 2024 22:51:03
Unfortunately it's wrong timing for us, I think they'll look to get an early goal to finish us off and give us all they've got, they know we're in a bad patch and they'll use it to their advantage. If we get through I'll be absolutely gobsmacked.

I'd love to be wrong of course, I'm hoping for one of them incredible Liverpool European nights to get us all positive again, we can dream :) .


11.) 16 Apr 2024 23:33:57
It's not worth getting out of bed in the morning is it, Vik?
When it's to get out of your pit, think Istanbul, Dortmund and Barcelona not Palace at home or United away, mate.


12.) 18 Apr 2024 00:39:49
I remember getting up on the day of the Barcelona game and having a discussion with my wife about whether I was going to go to Anfield or not that day. It’s an 8 hour round trip for me and we were 3-0 down after the first leg against arguably the best team in Europe at the time.

‘We’ve got no chance of winning, I’m too busy at work, it’s a waste of time’ I was saying to her. She just said ‘yeah but what if they do it and you didn’t go? ’

I went and had probably the best football experience of my life and there have been hundreds.

One thing I have learned throughout my life as a Liverpool fan is that if any team can do the seemingly impossible, we can.

This tie isn’t over by any stretch of the imagination.

Hi Guys, I keep reading about loads of players that we are supposedly interested in signing - probably all clickbait I know.

Surely with Klopp going, am I correct in thinking no players will come in until a new manager is in position.

KBL

1.) 28 Mar 2024 08:47:26
If LFC know who the new manager is, then he will probably be informed about any new players? Just because Jurgen is going, it doesn't mean we should sit on our laurels or we will go backwards like in the 90s.


2.) 28 Mar 2024 13:09:11
To go backwards in the 90s we would need FSG to suddenly sit on their hands and just watch other clubs continue to grow the commercial side and assume that our recent glories will just fall back into place. I’ve seen nothing in the entire time of FSG to suggest that is how they would operate.


3.) 28 Mar 2024 19:25:47
I imagine that while Klopp may have some mild input into new players from now until end June, it will be Hughes, the new manager and the group of Fallows and Hunter that woud have the biggest say in making new player purchases.

Although Klopp has grown into a larger than life persona at the club, I'm relieved that the structure at the club will not change. Edwards will take over from Mike Gordon as the FSG man, Hughes will take over what Edwards' role was and the ne manager will takeover from Klopp. This will help in alleviating the inevitable "hole" I think we will all feel with Klopp's departure.

What is everyone's opinion on rescheduling the derby game in berween 2 other away games, one of which is another 12.30 kick off. That means 3 away games in 6 days which is crazy.

Fulham, Everton and West Ham.

I know we have to fit the derby in somewhere, but I think there are better options.

KBL

1.) 24 Mar 2024 13:34:16
3 games in 6 days is always going to be tough regardless of where they are. The fact the 3 are away is going to be a bigger ask but if there is a silver lining then one of the away games is within walking distance of a home game so travel shouldn’t be a factor.

Games coming thick as fast is the down side of a team being successful. In the 6 days we have these fixtures City and arsenals are slightly better as they have 3 games each in 8.

In 27 days of April we have 8 games which works out a game every 3 and a half days.

Arsenal have 8 in 28 days and City have 9 games in 28 days so City actually have the worst fixture schedule of the 3 teams In April.


2.) 24 Mar 2024 15:17:45
KBL, it is what it is. They had to fit the game somewhere, right? For me, at least we now know when all the games in in the PL and CL will be played and the great thing here is that we will have all our players back by mid April (I think) so we have fresh legs to rotate and attack all the games with high levels of energy and determination. Let the games begin.


3.) 24 Mar 2024 15:17:51
The club knows how to manage times like this, we have a good squad with brilliant depth, and that depth has been tested this year and came flying through it. So not worried about the fixture list.


4.) 24 Mar 2024 19:14:44
It's actually four away games on the bounce w Atalanta away first. If we have an almost fully fit squad I'm not too worried. Everton don't have the squad to play 3 times in a week so for me that's advantage us. Everton also have Forest home before they play us. That's much more a must win (or must not lose) game for them than getting a result against us. Hopefully we can start the run with a good win at home to Atalanta in the first leg. West Ham have only 1 less game than us in April so they'll be in a similar situation to us. Hopefully they go through and have a focus on the EL rather than the PL. Biggest worry if Fulham away. Good side, the new striker Munoz looks very good. That for me is the biggest of those four games away.


5.) 24 Mar 2024 19:32:02
My sentiments exactly, Mikey.


6.) 24 Mar 2024 19:58:40
Everton have a 9 day break before they play Forest, which is a massive advantage before we play them. Hopefully we can get some players back and they get up to speed asap.


7.) 25 Mar 2024 13:48:02
Can i also point out that the main issue with away games in succession is the travel. I don't think there is too much in the way of a travel issue commuting to Goodison Park ? it's as good as having a mid week home game if people stop bleating for long enough to be objective.

Good post that Lowe1FC. I think Gvardiol has been a great signing for City though. Really good defender and scores plenty of goals too.

1jj - why would I say told you so? I've never said he will come or not. Let's face it you have a 50% chance of being right, and a 50% chance of being wrong.

Amorim may well come, and if he does, no doubt you'll be on here telling all and sundrie how you were right.

I don't know you or what you know, and vice versa, but my comments about you knowing for sure that he is coming is led by all the cli ckbait I feel. I hope you are right though, because I think it would be a good appointment.

An awful reaction to the results against Utd did for us last season, and that performance against a very weakened Spurs team was nowhere near good enough, and I hope isn't the start of a fall off for the rest of this season.

I understand the reasoning from above posters, but since Konate has been out we have conceded a lot more goals. I feel Slot knows and wants his best 11 on the pitch for most games, hence why Ali came straight back in after his injury.

I just think Konate will be back in when fit.

UV - their 2 missing players compare to our 2 missing players. Alison, probably the best goalkeeper around, and Jota, probably our most clinical finisher - so they were at no more disadvantage than us.

Why can't fans accept that it was a very good point gained.

I know all teams are affected by bad refs decisions, and VAR, but IF we had been given the blatent penalties against Arsenal, and City we would have another 4 points, not to mention the debacle at Tottenham too.

Rub of the green could have been kinder.

So with all the problems we have faced this season, I for one think we have exceeded my pre-season expectations.
