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

Look at Konate celebrating Mac Allister goal before it was ruled out 😂

Dont necessarily like the rule. But you're not allowed to score with the hand, arm or elbow regardless. So by the letter of the law it cant be given. But what can Mccallister do there? Nothing.

Good result, but, performance leaves a lot to be desired. The most important thing was to get the win, plus we kept going even after the disallowed goal. Still along way off where we should be and don't seem to be making any real progress or improvements in our play. Lots of work to be done with the squad before next season, hard to see Slot go past this season, unless we see an upturn in perfomances before the season ends.

There is absolutely a lot to do though regardless of the manager

I wouldn't be confident right now that any of Chiesa, Endō, Gomez, Konaté, Robertson, Tsimikas, Elliott, Salah, Woodman, Ramsay or Bajçetic would still be at the club at the start of next season and I'd also say the likes of Gakpo, Mac Allister, Alisson and Jones would be players you could see some clubs test us with a bid for

Jacquet is the only signing we know about. Isak, Bradley and Leoni will be back

Still leaves a lot to do I think if most or all of that first group of players leave

Do you not think there is a lot of work to be done on the squad? Also do you think Slot has zero input into the squad make-up or team selections, he doesn't use some of the players available to him, yet at the same time has complained about lack of depth. Slot at the moment is doing the bare minimum to keep his job, most of our performances during the season have been poor, Slot is throwing himself under the bus!

I was very annoyed with so many (including many Liverpool fans) saying Mac’s first ‘goal’ was a pure fluke. If you block a clearance from under the opposition bar, where else is the ball going to go?? There’s at least a 50% chance such a block ends up in the back of the net. In the end it was unlucky it hit his arm instead of his back. But that persistance paid off a few minutes later thankfully.

I dont think either Rio or Chiesa have done enough in their cameos before today to oust Cody or Mo. But today Rio did well. Would love to see him get a start next time

Not sure if there was an award on the telly, but for me Konate a clear man of the match

I'm not going to go into my experience on here, but senior players are exponentially more of a threat than underage. Sure there is poor tackling and reckless challenges in the youth system, but the senior players are intentional and have years of strength and experience to go with it. Many of them go in hard, Sergio Ramos, Roy Keane style. When you put an underdeveloped body, up against a brick sh*thouse with a plan to cause damage, careers can be ended. I have heard senior players categorically say that they would go in hard and early on a youth player if they played against them. If you have any experience as you say you do, you would know this is true.

Jones should have started at RB, crazy starting him in MF, reeks of stubbornness that Slot didn't do that, hand was forced eventually, and he was great at RB, just leave him there ffs .

The more he plays as a youth, the more likely he will have a significant injury. The higher minutes he puts in early in his career, the shorter his career will be, simple as.

I am not sure what the return is from him starting more games right now, is him playing 60 minutes every week going to guarantee 5th place?

Jesus...even the MOTD brief highlights were a turgid watch...our first "attacking" action was on 54 mins.

Very strange season....so many players out of form and below par
