I definitely think salah is going to PSG they are the only club that can give him what he wants. A whopping salary and length of contract plus there owner is qatari, with that league being so easy he could play for 4 or 5 years. Paris also has a large population of various people from African countries Egypt Tunisia Morocco so he will be treated like a king, shame but I think he will be off.
1.) 12 Jan 2025 17:26:08
I don't because PSG themselves said they weren't interested in him (in December) and said it was all newpaper talk.
2.) 12 Jan 2025 17:29:05
I think Salah's preference is to stay here, personally.
3.) 12 Jan 2025 18:28:16
I’d say that the chances of Salah going to PSG have diminished now they’re signing Kvara. He won’t go somewhere to play second fiddle.
4.) 12 Jan 2025 18:35:21
Ello salah i hope that is the case because i could only see them or the Saudis being able to sign him.
5.) 12 Jan 2025 18:49:47
Fans from Tunisia, Morocco and Algeria don't rate Salah that highly so your point is mute.
6.) 12 Jan 2025 18:49:58
I am with the club on Salah. Virgil’s contract more important, and Salah’s figures in 2nd half of past few seasons really not great at all - the club just can’t get us into a financial situation with someone in decline on £350k per week.
Mo is great, a legend - but when it comes to money, it has to be calculated on the next 12 months, not the past. With players on so much money, it’s crazy to put them on another monster contract as some kind of pension scheme. In my view, Mo is now superb creatively, but understandably no longer has the pace of turn to terrorise a defence, and can no longer press or get back to support our right back.
Which - as we saw with Ronaldo at United - can be a massive problem.
7.) 12 Jan 2025 20:10:48
Thing is though Monstersouness, if Mo goes, the purse strings aren’t being opened up for a suitable replacement. And even if they were, I’m fairly sure that Richard ‘Frank Spencer’ Hughes would find some way to make a cock up of it.
{Ed025's Note - do you like anything at all about Liverpool VV?, you dont half seem to moan a lot about them mate..
8.) 12 Jan 2025 20:43:05
I agree Ed025 totally depressing.
9.) 12 Jan 2025 20:50:31
I just do not understand understand those who think Salah shouldn’t be offered a new contract, even if it’s the biggest in our history. Right now he is the best player in his position in the world, arguably the best player in the world overall. Our thinking about players in their 30’s has to change. We all still think that 34 is the end for top flight performance, but it really isn’t . We think that because in the last 30 years that was pretty much true, but with medical/ fitness/ dietary science advances, these numbers are nudging ever upwards. Salah will still be a world class player in 2 years, have the conversation about diminishing returns then, if it’s even a thing then, but to lose him now would be madness. There is no player we can sign in his position that immediately improves us.
10.) 12 Jan 2025 21:06:11
Would the proposed 70% cap with new p&s rules be an issue in these contract talks or lack of? Last set of published accounts I read had us at 68%.
11.) 12 Jan 2025 21:37:01
Monster Salah had a bad end to last season because of his hamstring injury and the season before he played in a team with a midfield with no legs. Yet he still scored goals and you are assuming he is going to drop of a cliff this season. Salah is one of the very best professional footballers to play the game ever the way he looks after his self there is no telling how long he will stay at this level. Normally players let them selfs go over the summer then at a certain age when they come back there legs have just gone but Salah keeps his self super fit all year round.
All I can say about Salah is show him the money he wants to break records and he will if we keep him.
12.) 12 Jan 2025 22:18:23
I honestly understand what Victor gets out of supporting Liverpool, it causes him nothing but misery.
13.) 12 Jan 2025 22:29:10
It’s neither here or there. Mo may decline and not get the numbers he doing now. We could get a replacement who never reaches his numbers or gets injured and doesn’t play. The thing is mo IS hitting the numbers right now he’s worth a contract right now. What happens in the future is not now’s problem. A why are people worried about wages?
14.) 12 Jan 2025 23:15:56
I fully agree that Mo gets a contract, even if it means bringing in a youngster someone like bakayoko so that he could learn from Mo etc - I think what LFC will be looking at if there was any signs showing in the data prior to the legs falling of the midfields that year it did, no one could of predicted that from the end of the previous year - Fabinho seemed to drop of a cliff and Liverpool didn’t seem too see it coming - what is different about mo though is he is an absolute machine at the moment 1% of me things would that drop when he gets what he wants or is his goals this year I want to win everything! It’s just weird that he is saying nowhere near a contract so last year and we aren’t being linked with any RW?
15.) 13 Jan 2025 07:39:15
Mo does need a new contract his form has been exceptional this season and if he continues and we win some major trophies he should get the balon d'or which will only improve the LFC global brand.
Two year deal is a no brainer. Could even sell next in 2026 to saudi.
16.) 13 Jan 2025 08:14:16
john, Salah has a constant right now.
I'm not worried about his wages but those negotiating his contract will and should be.
17.) 13 Jan 2025 08:46:21
Have you been to Paris lately it’s a 3rd word hole so why on earth would Salah take his lovely family there to subject them to that mess?
Not a chance is he going there.
27 Dec 2024 23:55:43
Hearing trent has informed the club he wants to join Madrid, I personally think he is very replaceable and him leaving is no big thing, if it is the case he has told the club he wants to leave I would rather play Bradley or get a replacement and bed them in. The club is eternally bigger than any player.
1.) 28 Dec 2024 04:59:19
There’s a league title to be won, you play your best players.
2.) 28 Dec 2024 07:14:38
Win the league, let him go. Shame he is leaving and doubly ashame he will go for free but a RB will always be replaceable.
We will need to change the way we play and add more creativity though as we will lose a lot.
Nevertheless if you told me this year we can win the league but lose Trent, Virgil and Salah I would have taken it and still would.
3.) 28 Dec 2024 08:33:11
If his “asks” for a new contract are beyond what the club are willing to offer then it is what it is
Don’t forget, he’s the best right back in the world (Jurgen told us do) and has won everything there is to win with us.
Onto pastures new for him
Just gutting we don’t get a fee for him.
4.) 28 Dec 2024 08:47:48
Wish they would announce what’s happening, doing my head in this waiting.
5.) 28 Dec 2024 08:51:17
Shame never going to be in the legend bracket like gerrard or carra. Put it like this if it was spanish lad and from madrid and was r. b for them i would doubt we could turn his head and if we could you would question their mentality. All your going to hear from him is i've achieved everything here and want a new adventure. No lad this is Lfc it means more than that and you want to play for madrid, that's how much it means. Get a replacement now and bench him put him in the stiffs.
6.) 28 Dec 2024 08:56:08
What are people's thoughts on Sugawara as a potential replacement for TAA? People talk about Frimpong but it doesn't seem prudent to spend that amount of money on a right-back if we are to give Bradley a genuine chance. Sugawara should be reasonably priced as Southampton are going down and Slot has worked with him before at AZ.
7.) 28 Dec 2024 09:10:12
I mean the poster is repeating what Marca has said who have never been very reliable as with most Spanish media fed by Madrid PR. Obviously this is all too put a wrench in our chains so to speak as well.
8.) 28 Dec 2024 09:29:26
Not sure on others thoughts but I don’t think Carra is in the Liverpool legend status.
{Ed025's Note - the spitting incident disbarred him from any status at all JK..
9.) 28 Dec 2024 09:36:32
I agree 1000% JK23.
10.) 28 Dec 2024 09:39:03
Carra is a legend . Won the champions league with us and is a local fella who wore his heart on his sleeve always put 110% . Played with cramp in that final . Yeah the spitting incident wasn’t nice but it does not take away what he done for us as a club and fanbase . Definitely not the best centre half but I would say he is a legend.
{Ed025's Note - i would say spitgate proved he was more a bell end than legend, but each to their own i suppose mate..
11.) 28 Dec 2024 10:02:47
I would say carra definitely a legend, committed his full career to us and always gave 100%. 2nd highest on appearances for club as well I think. Spitting incident was a very bad thing to do which he has acknowledged, but I don't think a split second decision in heat of the moment should ruin his legacy.
{Ed025's Note - thats where we differ Digger, im not a very contrite person mate, just like i believe the likes of Myra Hindley should have been hanged by the neck in the town square rather than be allowed to take a law degree in the hotel they called a prison, i suppose not everybody thinks like me but i can live with that..
12.) 28 Dec 2024 10:03:01
If it’s true that we only really began the negotiations in October, then that’s shameful to leave it so late. As for Trent himself, if he’s decided to cut and run, that’s him done in a Liverpool shirt, I’d never want to see him play in a Liverpool shirt again or be employed by the club in any capacity, it amounts to sticking two fingers up at the fans here. He’d be as bad as Owen or Macmanaman. I’m also of the view that if he’s told the club this, then his role needs to be diminished, so when Konate is back it’s between Gomez and Bradley for starter. Trent gets the bench and the stiffs.
13.) 28 Dec 2024 10:08:02
Trent's overall defending, forward runs, free kicks, and even general crossing to an extent is replaceable yes, what we will miss though are the switches in open play that open up a lot of room for Gakpo or Diaz to work with. It's a huge part of our game to spread the play quickly in recent months and I do think we will miss that. I can't think of another FB in world football that can ping a pass like he can. I imagine Slot will need to tweak the system to suit.
14.) 28 Dec 2024 10:20:11
Look at how teams defend against us when Trent is on the field, they’re scared to death he’s going to find a runner in behind so they don’t push up to us, his presence has such a massive effect on the game even before he even touches the ball, he will be a massive massive massive miss if he does leave, which I dearly hope is not the case.
15.) 28 Dec 2024 10:21:23
Anyone who thinks 'LFC have left the renewal too late and are incompetent' need to read the Joyce article from yesterday.
If Trent leaves it because he wants to, not because of bad business practices.
If there is one thing you can't accuse FSG of, it is bad busines practices (other than buying Andy Carroll, but I hold Kenny responsible for that donkey move) .
{Ed025's Note - he may leave because he wants to Vango but thats not the issue mate, the fact that you will get nothing for him certainly is, which by any degree is incompetence of the highest order..
16.) 28 Dec 2024 10:28:07
Trent is a great player but out of the 3 players who are out of contract he is defenitely the easier to replace. Trent has unique talents and range of passing but it comes at a price and a lot of times that is his defending. For me it’s clear Bradley is not ready and we go all out for Frimpong!
17.) 28 Dec 2024 10:24:54
Your more than entitled to your opinion ed25 and I certainly wouldn't argue with your mira hindlay analysis!
I played football with a guy who once spat at an opposition player, he always regretted it. He was excellent player and always targeted by opposition for heavy treatment, I can nevermind him reacted in anyway before but this day he did.
Same guy is a very quiet, well mannered fella but whatever was going on that day with him he flipped. U just never know what going on with somebody personal life on a particular day and somebody says r does the wrong thing to them.
{Ed025's Note - everybody makes mistakes Digger but i feel you should always be responsible for your actions mate, should someone capable of such a vile act be rewarded with a bumper Sky contract?, if you are in the public domain you have a certain responsibility imo and if you fall short of that then there should be a price to pay, the same could be said of that scum bag Gino D,Acampo who was a burglar that broke into Paul Young,s house and stole his guitars and even video,s of his late wife yet is a "celebrity" on prime time television, maybe im a dinosaur but thats just me..
18.) 28 Dec 2024 10:38:18
If Trent goes on a free he’ll sour his legacy as a Liverpool legacy and from my view will be held in the same regard as Owen.
19.) 28 Dec 2024 11:04:02
Dhfc and Digger, cheers for the replies gents.
If Carra is in your legend categories then who am I to argue.
I thought Carra was very very good for us but Legend for me is reserved for the best of the best.
Good to hear your thoughts though ?.
20.) 28 Dec 2024 11:57:57
January is going to be horrible isn’t it?
In what world is Jaime Carragher a legend, either as a footballer or as a human being?
21.) 28 Dec 2024 11:59:00
Carra totally dropped off the chart in my opinion with the spitting. Totally agree.
22.) 28 Dec 2024 12:00:47
I saw the article Vango (thanks to 12ft. io), I saw nothing that persuades me from my view that the optics of leaving beginning negotiations of extending the contracts of three important players to within the last 12 months of their contract is poor decision making and poor management from the owners in not dealing with it sooner.
23.) 28 Dec 2024 11:41:30
Wouldn’t if Ed025 would say that if Carra had stayed at Everton. Let’s face it, if he did stay at Everton he’d be your best player ever.
{Ed025's Note - he would still be a scum bag though WOW, and would never be in the top 10,000 of Everton players mate..
24.) 28 Dec 2024 11:44:15
On a lighter note ed25 what about the blues, going well recently? 3 v good results against the top teams, only downside is draws don't do much for any team position wise in league, at same time can't argue 3 excellent results.
{Ed025's Note - 3 good draws Digger but it only equates to 1 win when all is said and done mate, and we have thrown away a lot of points against the lesser sides sadly..
25.) 28 Dec 2024 12:52:03
Spanish newspaper says it so, so it must be gospel.
British journalist (NJ) with links to the club, says his preferred option is to stay at the club. Must be lies.
As for Carra, over 700 appearances and won everything apart from the big one. Yeah some rat behaviour off the field just like Gerrard, who you all lord over. So yeah club legend for me.
{Ed025's Note - cart horse who punched above his weight for me..
26.) 28 Dec 2024 13:02:32
He definitely looks and acts like one Ed25 hahau.
27.) 28 Dec 2024 13:12:19
With regards to carra being a legend i would base my hypothesis on his one club loyalty and not neccessarily his ability on the ball Gerrard is an exception though on the ball all he has on carra is england caps if you want to say he's more a legend what stat makes him more a legend? The one where he nearly signed for Chelsea Or when he left for Dollars? Any argument can be shot down.
28.) 28 Dec 2024 13:42:36
Carragher looked good from time to time because of the players around him. In my time watching and being a fan I would honestly struggle to make it into the top 250. On his best day he was above average.
29.) 28 Dec 2024 13:25:39
Everton fans think Ferguson is a legend despite being a jail bird. In fact Everton signed a convicted criminal. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.
{Ed025's Note - im certainly not a fan of his Endo, but in the end hes not in the public eye making his fortune as a "celebrity"mate...thats the difference..
30.) 28 Dec 2024 15:07:34
The thing I hate most about celebrity culture is that it almost rewards bad behaviour as the media love a scandal and a comeback story after it. Look at Logan Paul youtuber. The disgusting things he did in Japan were the best thing that happened to his career. Most people over the age of 14 had never heard of him before he made the news and, after a couple of months of heat, he had more exposure and opportunities than ever before.
{Ed025's Note - you are right BR, its scandalous mate..
31.) 28 Dec 2024 15:28:17
I always wondered why carra was not shoehorned starter for End during internationals as he was always available and sureshot starter here.
But reality dawned on me when I took out the LFC tinted glass.
He was very average at best and hence was never picked b4 JT.
In fact successive managers kept ignoring him for Eng which says a lot about his quality.
32.) 28 Dec 2024 15:26:55
@Ed25, not sure I agree with the point you made earlier about TAA. He has a contract of finite length. If he does wish to leave and decides to see his current contract out then there’s nothing the club can really do. Perhaps they could have offered him a ‘Chelsea style’ 25 year contract for his last contract but I’m fairly certain he’d have said no.
If he does want to stay then it becomes an issue if what TAA wants against what the club think is an acceptable offer, mindful of the implications to the e siting wage structure within the club. If TAA is adamant about what he wants then it becomes a specific decision on the clubs part about a (possible) wage restructure against the loss of a transfer fee and that would be a conscious business decision. Either way, I’m not sure that the club is being incompetent.
{Ed025's Note - now im no expert on how contracts work WDW thats for sure, but logically i would think that with 2 years to go on any players contract an offer to renew or re negotiate should be made, if that offer is not taken up within say 6 months then the player should be automatically put on the transfer list, at least if an offer is made from a prospective club then the recompense is the transfer fee gained and used to procure a replacement, if he does sign a new contact then all well and good, now i might be being a bit Steve Naive of course but it seems a tragedy that someone of his ability who the club has invested a lot of time and money on can just walk out the door leaving the parent club with a massive hole that will cost in the region of £100M or so to fill, as i say just my take on things mate..
33.) 28 Dec 2024 15:50:34
Name one Everton player better than Carra?
Daft revisionism. He’s a far superior player to anyone who has played for Everton. He’s won a two major European trophies. Maybe Alan Ball was the last player who could compete, or Ratcliffe. That’s it.
{Ed025's Note - have you ever watched a game of football?, Carra was a below average exceedingly slow centre back who had a decent career on the back of being a local lad who had some good players around him, its hard for me to name any Everton player who was worse than him actually, Labone, Lyons, Watson piss all over him and i would go as far as to say Michael Keane would be above him, i will send you a postage stamp so you can write down all you know about football..
34.) 28 Dec 2024 16:08:37
Have you watched a game Ed? Basing his entire career on a post career incident which was him being harassed by a member of the public. Should he have retaliated, no. But speak to a local down the pub and you put it into perspective that someone was shouting abuse at him on the road I’d have filled him in.
As for a football, greatest ever player? No. But played his heart out and punched above his weight for over a decade and was always a solid 7/ 10. Ed stick to controlling this pop up laden dump with that crap you’re spouting.
{Ed025's Note - you have been watching with red tinted glasses on FK, he was pretty average for me but im obviously not an expert like you, spitting at a young girl will define him for me..a total and utter scum bag..
35.) 28 Dec 2024 16:18:35
Your "HEARING" meaning you read an article from marca hailstones that trent has decided to join madrid. Marca ??, while the day before chis Boscombe reported liverpool are very calm over the situation and believe the player still wants to stay and sign a new deal. I know which one I'd be more inclined to go with and it's certainly not that Spanish equivalent of the Daily mail. So if you hear any more from. the Spanish twats take it with a pinch of salt .
36.) 28 Dec 2024 16:35:48
Yes port red I am HEARING not this is 100 PERCENT GOSPEL. I am totally relaxed about the situation I feel trent is replaceable . If he wants to leave he owes it to the club and fans to grow a pair of swollocks and lay his cards on the table . Everyone though when klopp left we would fall down ( I never! ) and no one is even talking about klopp, same with trent you want to leave then go and we will move on.
37.) 28 Dec 2024 17:11:50
@Why0why, I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are a youngster. Do a search on Kevin Ratcliffe. He was a tad better defender than Carragher.
38.) 28 Dec 2024 17:16:04
You mean someone reads articles from the web to you ?
{Ed001's Note - it is all coming from Madrid's mouthpiece, Marca.}
39.) 28 Dec 2024 18:01:25
Just my opinion on the two topics here but for what it's worth
1. At the end of the day, i cannot believe that Trent will leave. I believe he is tempted, but I just don't believe he will leave
2. Carra was a bang average player. If he wasn't a local lad, he would not be in the Liverpool legend discussion.
40.) 28 Dec 2024 18:53:07
For me if Trent is going to go, I’d potentially rather he forced a move in Jan so we get some money for him at least. Otherwise my fear would be as we get to the tail end of the season he takes less risks etc as his heart lays elsewhere and won’t want an injury. In fact if I was him, and wanted Madrid that’s what I’d do - ask Liverpool to push for a Jan sale so at least I could say I want some money for my boyhood club etc.
41.) 28 Dec 2024 20:37:22
Carragher punched way above his talent, gave everything for the club and was a big part of what we achieved. He was an absolute warrior for us and deserves absolute respect for the performances he put in for us.
42.) 28 Dec 2024 21:49:10
Carra isn’t a legend. He was a bit better of a player than the ed is making out, but not by much. He was a leader on the pitch and he was vocal and could organise a defence, his tacking was good, his general awareness and passing were average. He was passionate and that always matters to supporters, he always left it out there, all admirable qualities . However he spat at a kid, job done, he’s a dick. Your conduct is what defines you. Ultimately you are what you do. He spat at a kid. Tells you everything about the man he is.
43.) 28 Dec 2024 22:50:34
I was at the 86 final.
Ratcliffe was a decent player, that’s why I mentioned him.
If Carra stayed a blue he’d be an absolute legend for them and many of their fans favourite ever player.
Any view to the contrary is nonsense. They’re utter rubbish. They had three decent years in the 80’s. They’re a terrible side full of absolute groks.
Their best player, Linekar, managed a year before legging it. Rooney saw their first team and in his words said “these are rubbish”.
44.) 28 Dec 2024 23:14:30
You do all realise that the club really do want Trent to stay, and they will have offered him the maximum that they are willing to pay, and that the decision will always be with the player……and if he wishes to move, then they can’t do anything about it.
Think we all wish he would sign a deal, but if he goes…. then I won’t lose any sleep. We have lost better players in better positions and the club will evolve.
Thanks for the good times and no hard feelings…. (other than I would prefer a transfer fee, but that’s life! )
45.) 28 Dec 2024 17:03:49
I'm sure Ed025 has been an angel all his life *wink* : )
{Ed025's Note - my middle name is Gabriel KC.. :)
46.) 28 Dec 2024 19:49:55
@ed25. Soz mate I let you have labone Watson etc but come on mate Keane? think the mulled wine kicking in.
{Ed025's Note - i think him and Carra could be twins mate..
47.) 28 Dec 2024 19:54:00
Some very valid points on both sides of the Carra discussion.
But sorry 025 old chap, I simply can't buy the "Michael Keane" is better narrative.
As a player Keane isn't fit to lace Carra's boots.
{Ed025's Note - very similar ability wise i would suggest Flash..
48.) 28 Dec 2024 22:38:04
Ed025, are you saying that Trent would have signed a new deal a year ago, had one been offered?
If he fancies a move, and has had that on his mind for a while, what difference would an offer have made?
How are these types of negotiations usually carried out? it seems like all 3 of them and the club were sizing up the situation.
{Ed025's Note - im saying that the narrative should have been...either sign or you are on the transfer list Vango, you cant just let a player go without getting a decent fee for him mate, especially a sought after player like Trent..
49.) 29 Dec 2024 02:29:45
Carragher will undoubtedly split the fan base when it comes to legendary status. He was good at times when we needed him and equally bad in others. He has longevity on his side but if he was a great player like Gerrard surely more teams would have registered interest to sign him.
I agree he shouldn't have spat at a child but one act shouldn't soil his name forever.
I think ed025 was being a little bit naughty using Myra Hindley as a comparison though. I don't think the crimes match up.
50.) 29 Dec 2024 06:43:57
@Ed25, it’s been said on here that Trent made it known a (long) while ago that he wanted to stay. It could be that he didn’t get pushed by the club. I agree with hindsight, that is a mistake by the club to not force the issue. As an aside that would not be an issue with the people at the club now as none of the three vilified now weren’t around 18 - 24 months ago.
Like I’ve said a few times on here, as far back as Sept 23, a lad who works at the club in a minor capacity told me, when I was over in Liverpool that Trent was learning Spanish.
{Ed025's Note - i just think its a shame if he does go WDW, and if he goes for nothing thats even worse mate..
51.) 29 Dec 2024 10:25:13
I was there in Istanbul and all those players get their deserved legendary status from me.
Including Jerzy Dudek, Vlad Smicer, Djibril Cisse, Jon Arne Riise, Didi Hamann, Steve Finnan, Harry Kewell
Would any of them get into my top 200 Liverpool players ever? Probably not.
But they will always remain legends for me.
Whatever they do off the pitch matters, but the spitting incident doesn’t take it away from Carra.
52.) 29 Dec 2024 09:40:33
Here’s the thing, according to Ed 025 we are consistently bad with regards to negotiations and every summer Mo is leaving.
Yet we have the leagues best team and Mo is the leagues best player.
Re: Trent. No player would’ve signed a new deal knowing Klopp was leaving. They’d want to know the new manager first. Secondly, we have no idea Trent hasn’t (via his agent) just flat out lied.
You can’t make a player sign. You cannot just accept the best run club in the world are incompetent, I know it’s the received logic here but evidence suggests it’s a bit silly and that Ed 025 is very good at winding you up.
{Ed025's Note - i have never said before this instance that LFC are bad at negotiations or that mo would leave...you are lying, if you are happy for your 3 best players to have the ability leave for nothing then who am i to argue?..

Regarding Carragher.
Interview with Rafa.
If you want to buy Gerrard and Carragher it will cost £200m.
£180m for Gerrard
£20M for Carragher
Maybe a little tongue in cheek. But likely not a bad comparison in terms of ability. Not a legend in my eyes. But this site is all about opinions. As someone posted earlier why was Carragher not sounded out my other managers. Or was he.
54.) 29 Dec 2024 11:07:36
I am no expert in football finances but can anyone put a figure on the value of the three players out of contract? Fine to say we are Liverpool and we will replace said players. We have done so in the past, no player is bigger than the club. But what will the club need to spend to replace these players and will they be of a similar ability. Then there is the need for strengthening other positions. Mind boggling that we are in this position. I would love all three to sign new contracts but I am not confident.
{Ed001's Note - I think people are forgetting that two of them will need to be replaced soon anyway, whether they stay or go now, the club will have to replace them in, at most, 3 years. And that is best case.}
55.) 29 Dec 2024 11:08:00
E025 Carra was a champions league winner something no Everton player has ever done and unlikely too in our lifetime. And I can’t think of any Everton players in premier league time better than him. Lescot and Stones maybe but not a definite. Branthwaite Looks like a player but only time will tell. But ed025 be it banter or bitterness I don’t know but you have a very low rating of lots of our players if it be Bobby carra even trying to make out Digne was better than Robertson in his prime while most of football thought he was the best left back in the world at that time. The spitting incident was a despicable act and for me it shows what a person he is but with social media nowadays you don’t get away with things but I can’t imagine what players where up to years ago without everything getting shared. I thought sky should have sacked him but am not sure if they would have been able to sack him for that. As for club legend a champions league winner and second on appearances so if you like him or not he will go down as a legend and in years to come that spitting incident will be forgotten. Is giggs a club legend and Utd and what he has done is by far worse.
{Ed025's Note - i agree with a lot of that Grino but we all have different standards i suppose mate, i never defended Giggs as he is another scum bag in my eyes and i have stated that in the past, i have no bitterness towards Liverpool though and speak very highly of your last 2 managers and a plethora of your players as im sure you know, i always thought Bobby was over egged but thats just an opinion, i feel character is just as important as ability but thats just me i suppose..
56.) 29 Dec 2024 11:58:09
grino75
As long as Ed025 is around the spitting incident will not be forgotten, and neither should it. I cannot think there would be a situation were I would spit at another person. It was disgusting behaviour from Carra. I cannot accept what he did was because he was being taunted, I am sure he gets this all the time. Does he always resort to spitting.
57.) 29 Dec 2024 12:35:40
I find it disgusting too but what I would say carra was a better defender than people giving him credit for then thing that let him down from being top draw was his speed. But he would throw his body under a bus when defending. If he was as bad as people are making out he would not have stayed at the club and played that many games. He won plenty of trophies and during that time we had some truly awful players but carra never let us down too many times.
58.) 29 Dec 2024 13:34:08
I take your point grino75. But was Carra a good player in an average team. I feel being a scouser maybe he is considered better than he actually was. Not saying he was a poor player but maybe rose tinted spectacles. Would he have a place in todays team, I am not so sure. I think Stevie G would.
59.) 29 Dec 2024 15:17:31
Must have been another Ed 025 who constantly referred to Klipperty (oh so funny nickname) and his unethical dealings that has alienated loads of clubs who would never deal with us again OR that every season Salahs agent was pimping him to every club in the world because Salah wanted out.
I mean, that definitely wasn’t you?
Identify theft hey?
{Ed001's Note - that was Ed002, you are just making yourself look foolish now.}
60.) 30 Dec 2024 00:13:04
Getting back to Trent:
I’d play him even if he’s off. Get your moneys worth from him, put more mileage in his legs. He’s a highly paid player, it makes no sense to bench him unless he’s out of form.
61.) 30 Dec 2024 02:51:44
Everton had a very, very good English defender who played in the England World Cup winning team . He was, on his worst day, a lot, lot better player than Carra and off the field I believe he never actually got around to spitting on children.
I think some people are making a mistake the means being in a team or squad that wins a cup or title means you are automatically a good player, which isn’t true.
08 Oct 2024 10:33:30
I can't believe the panic at the thought of losing firstly trent, as we can buy another right back who is defensively better and can pass the ball to the standard required also when trent was injured last season we performed well, salah has needed real competition for the last 5 years and now he is 32 naturally he will need replacing . Vvd is the hard one as I believe he still has 3 to 4 years of quality service to give to us. All this being said we shouldn't be worrying about losing players they should be worried about leaving us or they are not worth wearing the badge.
1.) 08 Oct 2024 10:56:39
Of course we should be worried about losing 3 of our best players, each of who can make an argument to be the best in the world in their position as well as gracing our all time Liverpool XI.
Personally, I don? t believe any of the 3 players will be unreasonable in their demands. They clearly love it here.
The ball is firmly in Edwards and Hughes court. Are Liverpool Football Club ambitious enough to keep their best players?
2.) 08 Oct 2024 11:10:46
Hailstones, I get the sentiment and the attempt at optimism but it's just wrong.
Of course losing our 3 (probably 4 with Ali) best players is a concern, it would be for any team in the world.
'can buy another right back', not of the quality of Trent.
If we sign Bastoni, Frimpong and Rodrygo, which clearly will never happen. You are spending potentially £250m to downgrade.
To pretend this is anything short of an absolute mess of a situation is nonsense mate.
3.) 08 Oct 2024 11:18:37
So we are saying if we lose trent we can't function as a team . if so we may as well go home and start supporting prescot cables . Big teams lose big players we are a big team and we find solutions and move on . united did it city are doing it we also should do it and can do it. Only vvd is playing at a worldclass level week in week out for me he is proving to be the real glue out of the 3 players that could leave.
4.) 08 Oct 2024 11:38:51
Are you ok? No one is saying we can't function, but losing our 3 best players, again potentially 4 with Ali is a disaster.
United did it and City are doing it? When did they lose their 3 best players all in the same window for free, please enlighten me.
You are trying too hard to be optimistic and individualize them leaving, but that's not the case, all 3 are going.
Could we cope with 1 of the 3 maybe 4 going? of course, but you know that's not the case, so to individualize their importance shows a lack of knowledge or deliberate ignorance.
It makes a huge difference that the captain, vice captain, top scorer and best goalkeeper in the world are all potentially leaving at once and it definitely isn't fine.
5.) 08 Oct 2024 11:42:59
hailstones - of course we would move on. We always have. That is not the point. The point is they all want to stay. Yes, Trent's head has been turned by Real's advances but I still believe he would like to stay and achieve more with his boyhood club.
The ball is in the club's court.
6.) 08 Oct 2024 12:05:44
No one bar Trent knows what he wants, it’s stupid to think otherwise. If the club fail to offer him a new contract then his decision is an easy one, if they do and he decides to join Real Madrid then so be it. The ball is firmly in Trent’s court, and let’s not blame Edward’s etc for this mess, he was allowed to run down his contract before they came on board.
7.) 08 Oct 2024 12:12:30
"Losing a £90m player for nothing is totes not a big deal. "
- Hailstones.
8.) 08 Oct 2024 12:12:51
Pelican do you have a private relationship with all 3 players or there agent and know for a fact they want to stay? . As I stated vvd is the one I am most worried about losing his leadership and quality which is both impeccable. United lost players like Keane, jaap stam, Beckham, Ronaldo, van nistelrooy, veron, etc adapted and won . City have lost players like tevez, kompany, aguero, mahrez, foden, sane, nani etc still won.
9.) 08 Oct 2024 12:34:32
Sorry not foden cole palmer.
10.) 08 Oct 2024 12:46:09
Losing them isn’t the thing for me……losing them for absolute zilch is the major issue. Salah and vvd I kind of get, sure they’ll get another year option atleast but Trent is different level stupidity. to replace a rb fair enough there are options but you ain’t getting anyone of his passing quality too, not a absolute chance.
11.) 08 Oct 2024 12:51:30
Based on this and last season performances I agree with hailstones the order of who I hope signs the most would be:-
1. VVD
2. Trent
3. Salah.
12.) 08 Oct 2024 13:22:30
hailstones - each have said they are happy here and are ready to talk to the club. Are you paying attention?
13.) 08 Oct 2024 14:46:07
There must be more to this than meets the eye. On paper Salah and VVD are model pros with great injury records so are definitely worthy of 2-3 year contracts. Trent is near to world class and will be due a bumper salary increase and imo he is worth it due to his age and potential sale value if he accepts a new contract.
So either Liverpool are being careful with money and not wanting bumper salary rises although if the players left they would have to replace them, a hugely tricky and maybe more expensive task.
Or the players actually want to leave maybe for a big pay day in Saudi or PSG or to one of the elite European clubs that consistently win trophies Real / Bayern.
If either the club or the players wish to no longer be contracted to each other it is going to create bad feeling in and around the club. So maybe the silence speaks volumes.
14.) 08 Oct 2024 16:15:21
We lose the best manager in the world and replace him with someone nobody ever heard of ( baring ed2) then the following season 3 of our best players walk out . I don’t know what message you lot see in that.
They should have been signed up last year and if the players declined then we should have started the ball rolling on replacing them. Not the approach we took this summer ( which was ludicrous if you ask me) if I was a top player I wouldn’t be in a rush to sign for us.
We’re ( the club) always looking for an angle. If we go after a player we look for an angle to save money. If players run down there contracts we renew at the last min to save money. So thinking we will identify and sign suitable replacements in one or two windows is daft.
More so with the way Hughes worked in the summer. We been looking ( supposedly) for a vvd replacement for a couple of seasons yet all we managed to do was upset a few clubs. Shambolic if you ask me.
15.) 08 Oct 2024 17:35:33
I don’t know what all the fuss is about. The situation is not ideal but it’s not the clubs fault if the players decide to leave. Players move all the time. Trent owes us nothing, he has been brilliant along with Mo and big Virg. We can’t stop them moving just like I couldn’t stop any of you moving jobs. Let it play out and enjoy them whilst they still play for us.
16.) 08 Oct 2024 20:18:51
Conor Bradley was fantastic IMO, last year. He is better defensively. Keeping VVD is critical. I would keep VVD if I had the money for only one player.
17.) 08 Oct 2024 23:30:41
It’s not the losing them that worries me, it’s getting the right replacements in that does.
I know we have bought well in our recent history so I’m sure it won’t be a major issue.
Saying that I would be gutted if we lost Trent. Salah and VVD have more games behind them than ahead of them now.
18.) 09 Oct 2024 02:42:49
How much would you say the 3 are worth not onli numerically but in terms of experience?
That’s my concern….
19.) 09 Oct 2024 07:42:06
We still need reinforcements now, maybe 1 or 2…. add that to salah vvd and Trent possible exits…. absolutely no way 3 quality replacements will be added there, never mind the reinforcements we already need will be brought in next summer. Although I agree Conor Bradley is a really good player and has a very good future ahead of him, he isn’t ready to be full time 1st choice rb yet.
20.) 09 Oct 2024 10:17:43
If Alexander-Arnold was offered £300,000 a week, that's £78 million over 5 years.
Let him go, then buy someone to replace him, at say £40 million and pay them 146k a week.
Works out the same.
they might not be as good.
They might be better.
We don't make these decisions.
21.) 09 Oct 2024 11:50:26
I have no problem with TAA moving om if that's his choice, and it is his choice, We've had a good ride with him for what is essentially only an investment in wages. Salah, was an investment in fees but is now in my opinion an excessive investment in wages for his overall comparative contribution compared to what someone else could deliver. VVD has more that delivered as a player, leader and role model, he sets standards and at whatever price and continued cost is an asset to the club and I hope will continue to be so.
I can't get excited about players moving on and being replaced with someone different, it brings a new dynamic and that's a good thing both tactically and from an interest perspective, a positive change. If TAA wants to go to Real or Oxford United, let him go with thanks and welcome the next guy and enjoy the ride. When Mo moves on, thanks for the effort and good luck. but for so many reasons VVD has still a valuable contribute to make for a year or two yet.
22.) 09 Oct 2024 16:01:59
Prioritising the 3?
Equally influencial and important. It is a joke that the club land themselves in this position to begin with.
I would want all 3 to stay, and if anyone is to leave, it will be the 1 that get the most bucks.
23.) 10 Oct 2024 00:30:35
Completely agree Viva.
Whats to stop Real taking Trent and VVD on frees next year?
That would be a bitter pill to swallow.
24.) 10 Oct 2024 08:20:21
Agree with the first post to a large extent. I also never talk about BEST players.
This is very much a team sport and it is therefore the players that have quality and fit into the team that we always want.
What’s the average time ANY player stays with a squad? 5 years? Either to move on or even to retire if bought in mid / late 20s?!
Don’t get me wrong all three of these players have the right quality and the right team dynamic we know and have felt the benefit of that but none of them are irreplaceable. If they are irreplaceable then so are those better than them in the past - and for sure we have had equal or better quality than all 3 in the past.
So, let’s look to the present and the future with or without them if they move on I wish the. Well and thank them and welcome their replacements - I know we will get it right we on average do!
YNWA.
25.) 10 Oct 2024 08:23:51
To add to my other post - again referencing the nature of the sport as a TEAM sport not an Individual sport - the so called best players are often the best players in one team and not another (when they move on) . Little Phil, Torres, Kewell (great at leafs a liability for us), etc etc.
26 Aug 2024 11:40:39
There have been rumours about Ait Nouri but for me he can't defend if we were signing him to play in midfield or as a winger I can see serious promise in him and could see something interesting.

Part Ex for CK?
I prefer the idea of Soler, as back up to Robbo.
2.) 26 Aug 2024 12:06:08
Man i really thought he was a very good LB until i watched the Chelsea game yesterday! He made Noni look like Salah on Steroids from the 17-18 season! lol.
But seriously he can only be good if you play with a back 3. They switched to a back 4 and wow they looked so exposed, i mean Chelsea could have scored 10 yesterday!
3.) 26 Aug 2024 12:54:08
He got absolutely rinsed yesterday alright.
4.) 26 Aug 2024 15:52:07

5.) 26 Aug 2024 17:52:45
Have to say nearly every Chelsea goal came down his side yesterday. Looked very exposed!
6.) 26 Aug 2024 20:39:28
I always laughed when people talk up Ait Nouri (same with Robinson at Fulham) . Both couldn't defend against a chair if their lives depended on it. Just happy to see that people are starting to catch on. N btw, he has always dropped defensive stinkers but people never seemed to notice either.
7.) 26 Aug 2024 21:23:05

5.) 03 Aug 2024 15:20:49
Hmmm, Always good to spell the name right and get the clubs correct.
Anton Stach, 6-4", Just signed a 4 year deal last season at HOFFENHEIM. He finished the 2023–24 season with second most duels won in 408 occasions. Has not been called into the German National team since 2022 who went with a Emre Can at the Euro's as backup. Would he really want to play in England?
Angelo Stiller is 6.0 foot tall, does he fit the profile of d-mid in England? Also just signed a 4 year deal at Stuttgart last year.
6.) 03 Aug 2024 15:45:12
Clubs are the wrong way around mate, but interesting info. Stach and Stiller are very different players so signing both wouldn’t be crazy but on the off chance your source has sound info, it would suggest the likes of Endo and maybe Gravenberch could be seen as surplus. I’ve not seen loads of either of them but the little I have seen Stach is more of a destroyer like Fabinho but Stiller is more of a deep lying playmaker in a similar mould to Thiago.
I’m not sure Stach is suited to the way we’ve been trying to play in pre-season so far, but Stiller definitely is.
7.) 03 Aug 2024 16:31:21

I think if elliot was to go as much as i think he should stay it opens the door for trey nyoni to slot into that number 10 position, it is obvious trey is rated highly and he could go into rotation with whoever is the number 10 starter.
1.) 11 Jan 2025 11:52:53

4.) 11 Jan 2025 12:43:54
At the moment I think Trey is nowhere near Elliott’s level and I have no idea how he has not played more. Slot needs to use more players otherwise we are going to burn out bad by the end of the season.

7.) 11 Jan 2025 14:45:39
If we really do need the money then sell MacAllister. We will double our investment in him.
Keep Elliott as Szoboszlai's backup.
Sell Jones and Nunez. That's 80-90 Million right there. Buy a second DM to partner Gravenberch since Slot likes to play the double pivot, and doesn't appreciate Endo. And buy that freaking LB.
8.) 11 Jan 2025 15:21:28
Elliott was better today when he went more central. I’ve seen a bit of Trey and he just seems to glide through games, he’s a very natural player and the game seems to come easy to him. He’s a while off first team yet, but very talented.
The young player who impresses me virtually every time he plays is Connor. Very competitive and sharp, makes the odd mistake but almost always influences the game positively. I’m really hopeful he’ll make it with us.

Isn't it funny that all of a sudden elon musk wants to buy us ( which was complete bullshxt ) . Also we are linked with kvaratskhelia ( who is in talks with psg with Chelsea man united interested also ) sounds like deflection tactics away from contract talks and deflection from us Trying to sign anyone getting fans giddy that there is a chance we get kvara. I would of thought defence and midfield is a priority to strengthen ASAP as we are starting to see why we haven't won the league since 19/ 20 certain players cannot be trusted through injuries and rinsing players so they are knackered when we are trying to maintain a certain level.

No worries hailstones. But this is what journalists do when they literally have no stories to write. I'm sure that Liverpool, like all other top clubs, keep track of many players across the world to assess if they are good enough to sign. Doesn't mean that we will sign any of them. Kvaradona is a top player on many clubs' radar and if he were to be available, many clubs would be interested in signing him. This "interest FC" or "monitoring FC" meme is just plain nonsense.

Slot on Kvaratskhelia links: "99/ 100 times at the end of the window it's been clear that almost all of these stories weren't true. But no comments from my side. "

Yes dracred "monitoring" "interested ""we really like" "watching developments" wish I had a quid every time I have seen these quotes.

Who is everyone's options to replace trent other than conor Bradley? One thing I have noticed with Bradley is he gets injured quite often so we definitely need cover, so who is a good right back to bring in?
1.) 29 Dec 2024 14:27:45
He probably won't need replacing, I see him staying.
2.) 29 Dec 2024 15:16:09
Salah mate what makes you think he will stay?, he has rejected 3 contract offers and didn't have the balls to even play against Madrid didn't even come off the bench, he wants to win balon dor that won't happen at liverpool at right back but probably will at Madrid. Also his best mate bellingham has probably already laid the foundations.
{Ed001's Note - omg what a moronic post. Hailstones you have just produced an all-time low of a post. Didn't have the balls, my god you have just lowered the bar for idiocy to a new low. You do realise that Slot picks the team and who comes off the bench right? This is the most embarrassing piece of sour grapes ever written. You need to grow up and drop the petted lip.}
3.) 29 Dec 2024 15:25:46
I agree with Salah. I think Trent, Salah and VVD all stay personally. But the club really need to start thinking about life after VVD and Salah.
4.) 29 Dec 2024 16:04:27
I must have missed the three contract offers. Is there any validity to that or are people just repeating what they've seen on click bait sites?
{Ed001's Note - he is just chatting nonsense. Pure outright lies.}
5.) 29 Dec 2024 16:04:46
"Players should play in key matches when just back from injury to prove they have the balls"
- Hailstones.
6.) 29 Dec 2024 16:04:47
Has Trent rejected 3 contract offers ??♂️. Genuine question.
7.) 29 Dec 2024 16:11:39
Answered already above ?.
8.) 29 Dec 2024 16:16:55
Lol comical, we're in for a good laugh for the next month that's for sure. We're going to have the ones who listen to the media and the ones who make stuff up like this fella.
9.) 29 Dec 2024 16:33:30
Lets focus on winning a few titles, in front of the fans.
Whatever comes next is for another day.
Onwards.
10.) 29 Dec 2024 17:04:16
Every day fool's like this have to put up posts criticising not only Nunez but also Trent,2 players that you wouldn’t believe play for Liverpool FC, I can guarantee you that give or take in or around half time against West Ham the usual posters will be on here moaning about the players or the club, posters who pretend to support said club, they know who they are.
11.) 29 Dec 2024 19:15:46
Even when we are flying and having a great season, some people will find anything to be absolutely miserable about.
12.) 29 Dec 2024 19:26:31
Hang on, what’s all this? I thought the lads decided who was going to have a game when they met up with the coach in the pub an hour before the match? Used to be like that when I played on a Sunday morning, back in the day.
13.) 29 Dec 2024 19:30:57
Yeah I’m also sick and tired of being triggered every day with other people’s opinions on an opinion site.
Worse one is when people post transfer rumours. That really boils my p##s.
14.) 29 Dec 2024 19:45:50
Remember coutinhnos bad back rotter him .
15.) 29 Dec 2024 20:01:48
Some real comedy gold here. I'm not sure which post is the funniest.
16.) 29 Dec 2024 20:49:31
Pick me, pick me @Flash. I should get some points for at least trying to be funny.
17.) 29 Dec 2024 21:29:37
Hailstones, which contract offers that Trent rejected are you talking about?
18.) 29 Dec 2024 21:35:17
Ed01, what did I tell you about fans turning on Trent (and making such a ridiculous post like Hailstones did) after the Fulham game? The level of insults and the abuse he is getting since this story came out is getting more cringe, bitter/ sour and unhinged with every passing day.
People have turned on Trent solely cos he has the ambition to play at RM and they are having severe personal problems dealing with that scenario should it happen. I Hailstones' post proves exactly that.
19.) 30 Dec 2024 01:28:52
It's not like people turn on Klopp, Lijnders, Jota, Edwards, Hughes etc etc, is it?
12 Jan 2025 18:35:21
Ello salah i hope that is the case because i could only see them or the Saudis being able to sign him.
12 Jan 2025 13:41:34
If anything we will buy and loan back.
02 Jan 2025 22:58:18
He has so much to offer still in the best league in the world easily has 3 more years of scoring assisting hopefully for us.
31 Dec 2024 18:07:22
I actually just read your other reply on the banter page ed 01, so we have left it too long and made him feel disillusioned and now he is feeling disrespected yeah . Totally our fault but I feel he is replaceable.
31 Dec 2024 17:56:29
Could you enlighten us what is the bigger picture ed 01? I don't come on here as much as I would like so don't always see your pearls of wisdom, I am a scouser and love trent but if he wants to leave that's life we move on and roll with it. I did read and seen he had rejected offers from Liverpool but obviously I don't know it to be gospel.
{Ed001's Note - talks are continuing, no offers have been rejected or offered, it is just negotiations, just like Virgil and Mo. Trent is getting shafted because he isn't talking about it, he always said he wouldn't out of respect for the club because he wasn't happy at getting put on the backburner, so to speak. Like I said, he was all set to sign under the previous regime, but then they never went to the negotiating table, just kept putting it off. Then it all changed and Ward came in and has done the same.
In my opinion, they are penny pinching as they want to reduce costs, so didn't want to give him the pay rise he would be getting until they absolutely have to. Probably hoping Bradley and Ramsay would have such stellar seasons that they could sell him now and just recoup some 'pure profit' in terms of the financial regs.}
12 Jan 2025 13:44:19
Joa gomes of wolves is a very good option if we go for him very close to a replica of McAllister clever squad option if macca needs a rest.
12 Jan 2025 01:28:53
That diouf is a unit and an attacking left back who also plays midfield, don't know about his defending but looks like a menace going forward.
11 Jan 2025 19:52:03
I have too be honest darwin is going through hell at the minute on the pitch he doesn't even believe in himself, danns on the other hand looks hungry can hold the ball up has composure the physicality is a real bonus also, I would rather see him start than darwin now there is something about him.
11 Jan 2025 15:21:48
For the sake of nunez's career he has to leave he is going backwards and looks like every drip of confidence has drained out of him. I would easily start danns over nunez he gives us balance because I believe he can head the ball, linkup, and finish better than nunez.
11 Jan 2025 12:54:12
Just watching elliot now, if he playing i would rather in the 10 role rather than on the right.
