Liverpool FC Premier League Champions 24/25 - Talk /Gossip/Rumours

Let’s kick off silly season

Hanging with Wayne Lineker ffs , dancing around with girls barely 18

Klopp had class, this is so not Liverpool.

Maybe Slot should have spent time with his family, who live back in Holland and didn't even move to Liverpool or embrace the city .

Slot is so not with it when it comes to being the Liverpool manager .

And yes Klopp has been to Ibiza, on his private boat, with friends and family

Trent is not a legend.

Precisely why the poor chap has to leave.
To become a legend. To set up loads of goals in the famed white shirt of Madrid by playing beautiful passes while ignoring attackers from the other team running past him with the ball… and all while winning the ballon d’or multiple times.

Washed down later on with a year or two possibly wearing the famed pink shirt of Inter Miami and hanging out with becks and his ball d’or trophies.

The proper stuff of legends.

To get back to the boo’s at the weekend, I wouldn’t have done it myself but by jaysus i wouldn’t have clapped either. Not a fan of the way Trent has gone about all this and tbh if boo’s upset him then he might be joining the wrong club!

He won a Champions League, Premier League x 2, FA Cup, League Cup, Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup with LFC.

He’s a club legend.

I don’t understand the mentality around being angry at Trent leaving to the point of booing him or disrespecting what he’s achieved for us as fans of the club.

If it’s for the reason I think (the one the media are driving) then it makes zero sense directing your anger/disappointment at Trent.

The Bosman ruling is 30 years old this very year. The club shouldn’t have needed Richard Hughes or Michael Edward’s in place to have a policy around contracts ending. The club made a huge mistake and now it seems the ‘fans’ are happy to blame Trent. It’s morinic imo.

I'd say after they couldn't hit 90 points this season they just said "fxxk it, let's go on the lash!" 😂

We lost others in their prime previously and there wasn't this much of a backlash. The club moved on. Booing him was out of order. But he shouldn't even be getting on the pitch given his contract situation. The club should have moved on already.

Trent is doing exactly what so many other players are doing and cashing in by running down their contract. At the rate it appears to be happening, in my opinion, transfers will have to change model away from the current one of large money transfers from club to club. To do that, it needs a EU level buy in to that model. Smaller clubs rely on it heavily as a funding model so I am unsure how it can be resolved but without change we risk many mega contracts in future and mercenary type behaviour for moves. In my opinion !

So Frimpong is done. Cherki and Huijsen sound like we're pushing. Kerkez should be next.

It's funny all the work we need to do on a league winning team.

He won the league with Celtic too in a back 4 formation so it's not alien to him

Serious banter from TAW lads.

Was ridiculous to boo him in fairness.

Hes absolutely a club legend considering he’s been part of the most successful period the club has had in the PL era. The quick corner is arguably the most iconic moment from that period.

He wants to go, fine, thanks very much and best of luck. The club has lost big players before and has been fine, this will be no different - and it looks like we might already have our long term replacement.

It always sort of bothers me that a player is supposed to have undying allegiance to a club, while the club(and fans) can be happy to push him out the door as soon as it suits them.

It'll be interesting to see how he is used if we do sign him. He could play right back or as an alternative to Salah.

He wouldn't be my choice to fill the position but if as Dominic King suggested Slot is going to revolutionise our style of play for next season then Frimpong could be a vital component in providing an additional attacking threat. If he makes the diagonal runs that Slot likes, then he would prove to be a serious problem for the opposition because he covers the ground so quickly.

However defensively the version of the player that lines out for Leverkusen will leave us more exposed on the right than #66. Looking for positives, Klopp made switching Milner to full back work so there is hope for Frimpong to do the same. They are of similar height and Frimpong has much quicker feet and more pace.

His pace (36.34 km/h) would put him in the top five fastest players in the Premier League this season, so he won't get burned by the likes of Anthony Gordon. If he's available for £30m then the transfer makes financial sense and the fee falls right in the sweet spot for FSG. It's a Mac Allister like bargain transfer fee.
