Just seen Slot talking to Wio Ferd, why on earth would he talk to him (of all people ) about our team n tactics and players . is this part of his job to do these things or is it a personal one that he chose. if it's the latter I don't get it lt all.
1.) 20 Jan 2025 23:47:52
He’ll be have to do it as part of his and the club’s media obligation. He probably enjoyed talking to Rio Ferdinand about as much as Thiago enjoyed tasting those Quorn pies….
2.) 21 Jan 2025 00:18:22
Slots always been very open about these things, besides he gets asked questions and he answers them. You have to play the media game.
3.) 21 Jan 2025 00:22:49
He works in the media?
4.) 21 Jan 2025 03:50:26
My word it was difficult listening to Ferdinand try and do analysis with Slot. If this is the average level of retired pros, no wonder they all get sacked so quickly.
Just ask the questions and let us listen to what Slot has to say, damn it.
5.) 21 Jan 2025 06:15:26
He doesn't work in media but his job requires him to frequently engage with people work in that field. Can't believe this needed to be explained tbh.
6.) 21 Jan 2025 08:05:51
Yes, he works in the media - it's part of the role and a part of the role that Klopp was magnificent at also.
His tactical flexibility and ability to exploit opportunity areas on the fly is such that I have no problem with him telling Wio how we did what we just did.
7.) 21 Jan 2025 09:08:49
Personally I’d rip the mic off and refuse to speak to him.
8.) 21 Jan 2025 10:05:59
Oh you negative beast @Vic.
9.) 21 Jan 2025 11:01:44
I think you can afford to be rude to Rio Ferdinand and it not make any difference. Every time he opens his mouth it’s like an assault on the English language, he sounds like Tim Westwood with a lisp.
10.) 22 Jan 2025 00:32:54
The question was why is Arne Slot talking to Wio Ferd not why wouldn't Vik not talk to Wio Ferd.

I know people have already thanked Ed002 for his knowledge n patience on this site for the transfer news . but I'd just like add my 2pence worth. with all the click bait out there some fans screaming for this signing etc. it's great to come on here n read what Ed002 says so we can just all calm down a bit . he tells were interest is and when there is no interest . I only really listen to him esp over transfers. so again thanks Ed.
{Ed002's Note - Post of the day.}
1.) 31 Aug 2024 13:54:02
Well said. Thanks to all the Ed’s .
2.) 31 Aug 2024 14:37:57
Yes I totally agree with this. I sometimes read and listen to things that give me a chuckle knowing from edd 2 that's it's nonsense.
3.) 31 Aug 2024 22:21:58
You say that Stevie but when my flowers turned up the arrangement was frankly amateurish and my chimney sounds like it’s still got a few jackdaws nesting in it. Can 25 come out of retirement for some cash in hand work?
Honestly I’m not impressed.
Have to say though this is not Ed002’s first ro-deo and it shows. Need to get the florists and sweeps up to speed for January ??.
4.) 31 Aug 2024 23:14:07
Absolutely agree with this. The best thing by miles is that the information is factual - no speculation, no assumptions, just an up to date summary of what’s actually happening or not. For me, from a Liverpool perspective, it’s the only place that is consistently reliable.

Not sure if its been mentioned on here but our we looking at Giovanni van Bronckhorst to replace Heitinga. or is that a load of nonsense.
1.) 15 Jun 2025 03:28:57
It's true and very close being finalized.
2.) 15 Jun 2025 03:41:30
Was mentioned a day or so ago @Strom, might be an element of truth in it.
3.) 15 Jun 2025 05:01:28
Apparently it’s a thing. Loads of experience and at a higher level. Apparently great with the lads rangers fans still think highly of him.
4.) 15 Jun 2025 06:52:04
Had a left foot for ages.
5.) 15 Jun 2025 10:26:06
Im sure I saw a picture of him at John Lennon airport and he did indeed still have his left foot.
6.) 15 Jun 2025 11:55:48
Glad he's coming and getting sorted straight away . plenty of experience, good player, been a good manager n Dutch ( to boot ) that will go with his left foot.
07 Jun 2025 12:24:00
ED001.what do you make of Spurs sacking their manager. I know they have been terrible in the league but had a lot of injuries BUT they have won a major trophy, surely this is what this game is all about at the end of the day. I know finance is crucial but now they're in the champs league, that sorts that out . personally I think they've had a better season overall than Arsenal, villa etc because they've won which is essentially the 3rd biggest trophy you could win. I'm sure their fans wouldn't swap their cup win for any placed finish unless it was 1st.
{Ed001's Note - it was always going to happen, Ange was not the problem though - Levy is. While he is there, they are never going to be a truly big club.}
1.) 07 Jun 2025 12:55:21
It is harsh in my opinion.
Yes their league form has been abysmal but with their injury crisis Ange made the decision to put all his eggs in one basket, as did the players, and he succeeded. European trophy and champions league football. I think he deserved another season at least - especially if you are sacking him for Thomas Frank.
2.) 07 Jun 2025 12:56:10
ED001 i agree it's Levy. they never really put the resources in to challenge for the top titles . seems like they're happy with things like the new stadium n what's that brings rather than going for glory for titles cups etc . I'd be proper disillusioned as a Spurs fan . big club in theory.
3.) 07 Jun 2025 13:18:03
Spurs won a trophy in a competition that Arsenal weren’t even in. Surely to compare they’d have to compare on what they competed in.
It’s like saying Spurs 24/ 25 season was better than our 23/ 24 season as we only won the league cup but finished 3rd.
I’d even go as far as saying the europa league isn’t a major trophy but it’s all opinions Stromsgodset mate.
4.) 07 Jun 2025 14:10:19
If they didn’t sack him now, he’d have been gone by Christmas anyway.
5.) 07 Jun 2025 14:48:32
Harsh but absolutely the right decision IMO.
17th in the prem and 38 points is an abomination, even with an injury crisis.
Ten Haag won the FA Cup and finished a lot higher last season and everyone was of the opinion he should go.
They stuck by him, gave him 200mil only to sack a few months
Spurs form last season back half was dreadful too.
6.) 07 Jun 2025 14:53:42
Sure had no other choice, woeful manager I expect amorim to got by Christmas too.
7.) 07 Jun 2025 15:25:08
David moyse at West Ham was treated the same. Sometimes these small clubs don’t appreciate what they have.
If there’s a guy there who wins you trophies (albeit second tier) I think that’s better than making up the numbers and just Existing.
{Ed001's Note - Moyes stayed a year after winning and destroyed the Hammers by signing old, slow players. Not the same at all.}
8.) 07 Jun 2025 15:38:19
Ange did the the most un-Spursy thing possible and won a trophy. He had to go just because of that. He never did embody the Spurs way of nearly winning things. There's a reason why Poch is seen as their best manager in recent times. Coming in third in a two horse race for the title was magical. And so was losing the CL final after getting there in the first place. He was Spurs through and through and it was a shame he had to go. If Ange had lost the Euro final, I have an inkling that he would have been rewarded with a new contract and be seen as a true Spurs legend ;)
9.) 07 Jun 2025 15:48:35
The UEFA cup JK23 is a big trophy and yes they did better than Arsenal as Arsenal have nothing in their trophy cabinet the do have a league runners up medals. As for the sacking of Ange well managers have been sacked for winning leagues and champions league so nothing shocks me anymore with football. YNWA.
10.) 07 Jun 2025 17:40:24
I felt a bit sorry for him but then I remembered our goal fiasco where they ruled out by “mistake” coff coff and ange said along the lines of “ suck it up” ah well ange see ya later. Not in the prem though Karma eh.
11.) 07 Jun 2025 17:46:44
No matter what you think of Spurs, they are not a 17th position club. On the edge of relegation?
Clearly head (s) was/ were going to roll. It's a pity the rolling didn't go beyond Ange, because it needed to.
12.) 07 Jun 2025 19:15:24
Jk . uefa cup / europa league . is a big cup. I know what your saying about comparing to Arsenal n Villa because it was a different competition but Spurs won it . they lifted a cup n got the parade, fans loved it . to me that all that matters . not finishing 2nd,3rd,4th etc but as you say it all about opinions.
13.) 07 Jun 2025 19:32:30
Storms and Iwillbered it’s all opinions gents.
If you think Spurs had a better season than Arsenal then so be it. I don’t believe it and it’s all opinions.
For me league titles and CL are the big ones and then the rest is below.
Europa is now contested by teams that finish outside top 4-5 in their league so for me it’s not a big one.
23 May 2025 11:30:35
Just looking at who could finish top 4 . I'd love any of Newcastle, Villa or Forest to get champs league places esp if 5 are allowed this year . all good proper teams . be a great end to the season if Citeh n Chelski miss out.
1.) 23 May 2025 12:41:02
Sorry to break it to you but City are confirmed for CL already.
2.) 23 May 2025 12:42:49
Apologies mate just checked and you're right City still need a point!
We can live in hope can’t we as you say would be great if they did miss out.
3.) 23 May 2025 12:51:56
Unfortunately, it's nigh on impossible for Forest to catch City.
4.) 23 May 2025 13:07:37
Its honestly class though that qualifying for those places has went down to the last game of the season.
5.) 23 May 2025 13:16:03
Last time i checked you can't qualify for the Champion's League from the Championship.
21 May 2025 14:03:49
ED001 If you're about. haven't Liverpool got people looking at social media sites like this one, if so have you ever had contact with people from the club who would like it to be known about certain things what happen in the club ( i know they have certain reporters), your site must be known to have a Scouser running it n only wants what's best for the club. wouldn't it be beneficial to them to get their own true feeling known .
{Ed001's Note - they monitor sites to get the general feeling. Do you mean use me to leak things? They have never done that, only thing I ever got contact from the club itself over was team sheets, during the Rodgers era. They asked me to stop putting out the team early, so I stopped. Other than that, the club never make any kind of contact.}
1.) 21 May 2025 14:36:44
ED001.yea i meant leaks but what they couldn't say in public, iv often wondered why they don't. as you say they asked you to stop with the team naming n you did, so you'd think it would get you some brownie pts . thanks for the swift reply Ed.
{Ed001's Note - probably not big enough, in terms of following, for them to use, they can just go direct to big name journalists. You are very welcome mate, sorry this one was not as swift!}
2.) 21 May 2025 15:37:30
Ed001 is in fact Richard Hughes.
{Ed001's Note - shhhh, I was trying to keep that quiet!}
3.) 21 May 2025 16:05:35
Now we know why Colin Pascoe was always in postman shorts. He was delivering the teamsheet news to Ed001 himself.
{Ed001's Note - do you remember there was a period where every site had the teamsheet early? The club couldn't figure out what was happening, until it was eventually pointed out to them that Rodgers put the first XI in different colour bibs from the rest of the squad!}
4.) 21 May 2025 16:51:29
Another Rodgers masterclass, Ed.
{Ed001's Note - it was amazing that it took someone else to point it out to him how his teamsheet was getting out. You would think it was bloody obvious how every man and his dog had it.}
19 May 2025 19:27:56
Glad Liverpool are moving fast in the transfer market . Left and right backs sorted . if we get Wirtz, that's would be the icing on the cake . fantastic player . hope we also get a top striker n a midfilder. Shame ED002 is not here for his wonderful insight.
17 Jun 2025 14:52:20
Rome . yea that was his name . horrible wasnt it . first time I'd seen something like that.
Kenny. cheers for that update. think il leave my chicken dinner till tomorrow now ?.
17 Jun 2025 13:26:36
I was at the game when Jim Beglin snapped his ankle . we were quite close to it . could see his ankle at a horrible angle. everyone around me knew instantly it was a a very bad one . worst one was the lad from Coventry, think his name was Buust.
17 Jun 2025 09:36:48
Barney Rubble for me . ( I know not the Premier league ) also he scored the winner v Real Madrid n scored the winning penalty v Roma aswel.
11 Jun 2025 12:14:02
RF . aren't you a blue nose or I'm i mistaken . even Jamie carra mentioned you the other day on one of his shows.
16 May 2025 15:12:36
Why oh why. I get what you mean but when Nkunku was fit , he was banging the goals in, good all round player . his injuries have been disruptive to him . but not saying we should buy him but if he came, I wouldn't be disappointed.
20 Jun 2025 10:37:36
Snoots . usually I'd agree. but all the players leaving were all coming to the end of the Liverpool careers one way or another . we've replaced them with younger excellent players. hopefully one or 2 more through the door n think we'll be OK for the next few years.
19 Jun 2025 01:15:53
ED001.100% agree with everything you've just said.
18 Jun 2025 23:56:14
ED001 what would you do with Konate if he's following the Trent route . personally I'd try n move him on . n if he won't go, I wouldn't play him or loan him out . its world cup year so he needs to play . we have to play hardball with players taking the piss. I know people on here think its his right to do this but I couldn't care less about that, my only concern is our club.
{Ed001's Note - sell him this summer. I think he is easily replaceable on the pitch, far too error prone and still needs Virgil to hold his hand. If it wasn't for Quansah being so bad and Gomez being unable to stay fit, I would be looking to replace him anyway.}
17 Jun 2025 13:29:59
Ellot is a great little player . but he seriously lacks pace, also a bit weak but can play though. he'd be better suited to a team abroad were the game is slower . think he'd excel say at Dortmund.
16 Jun 2025 21:24:50
ED001 thanks for the reply.
{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}
