Liverpool FC Premier League Champions 25/26 - Talk /Gossip/Rumours

Wow. Sounds like 200k is the new 100k. I think even 200k p/w is crazy for Guehi tbh. Am I just super out of touch with wages these days cos for me I'd be expecting one of the top 3 defenders in the world or thereabouts for 300k p/w. I haven't watched alot of guehi i'll be honest but I'm not surprised we aren't competing at those figures.

I can't imagine there are many defenders in the world on more than 300k p/w. Maybe 10 if I had to guess.

It's probably missed because of the transfer news today, but this is terrible man management by Slot. Maybe it's the Dutch directness.

"But I still think I have better options to play, but when I was running out of options he's already shown he's good enough to be in and around our players"

Slot can come across as a right **** at times.

Honestly is Slot the worst man manager in the league? Bonkers he'd say this about a young player who's OUR ONLY NATURAL RB FIT AND AVAILABLE right now. Beggars belief.

I keep hearing about this Dutch straight talking but this is just bad man management IMO. Slot should go back to telling teams how to beat us again while doing nothing to try stop it 🤣.

I genuinely believe something broke in Slot when psg knocked us out of the champions league last season. It's like he can't get past it and the team and his tactics haven't been the same since (plus he keeps referencing it constantly).

I was listening to David Lynch during the week and he was saying that the coaches dont rate Ramsey that much and will look to move him on in the summer.

Dont know how reliable he is for his info

The comments seem cruel and I think he could have phrased it better.

He doesn’t have a lot of time for players that cannot meet his expectations it seems.

I wonder does he know this is possibly his last season and is finding it hard to keep his composure when it comes to the press conferences. He does seem fed up most of time.

Must be nice to spend £20m or more on a player out of contract in 6 months. Add in the player will not accept lower wages to sign now instead of 6 months (why should he?) and you already have depth but suffering from injuries at the moment. It takes arrogance of a club that thinks the rules are not for them to be able to do that and then actually do that.

City did not need Semenyo but signing him makes them marginally better and it makes their competitors worse. They do not need Guehi long term, but signing him now makes them better (as they need bodies) and it makes their competition worse for not being able to sign him.

After we lost out on Guehi in the summer I was a little gutted, but then it got me thinking if he was a huge loss for us. He is one of three at the back for Palace team flying but they are consistently mid-table. He is only 1.82m tall and when you consider VVD is 1.95m and Konate 1.94m he would have been a lot shorter than who we have at the moment and would that have helped when our problem is balls lumped into the box?

I still hope we hijack the transfer, but if not we should not see it as the end of the world.

I don't agree on the over reacting. I can't see any way in which this is good man management combined with slots lack of squad use since he came in we're getting a very clear picture of how he rates anyone outside the first 11 (with one or two exceptions). Being a squad player at Liverpool doesn't look a great prospect under slot.

No one is saying Ramsey is the next Cafu but this "straight talking" might not be the best course of action with a young player who's overcome massive injury issues since coming to the club and who we most likely will have to rely on in the coming weeks - unless there's another RB being lined up in the transfer window which doesn't seem likely.

Nobody is as anti-Slot to the extent you are coming across as a straight out apologist tbf.

Has cohort replaced brigade, and camp? Poor camp never gets a mention anymore 🤣

Camp is now 4th choice behind faction!
