Liverpool FC - Talk /Gossip/Rumours 25/25

I'm absolutely certain that pretty much everyone on this thread understands how 'sport' works so you might want to lessen your preaching.

Performances and results have been dire this year. I had zero expectations of winning the league this year.

I'm sure Slot likes you as well.

This is how standards collapse imo.

Robertson being one of our best players means excellent defending, distribution, intelligent runs up the flank and asissts.

Now all you have to do is show a bit of fight.

While there are many different reasons to have gripes with Slot, letting Tyler Morton leave is not one of them.

It was a deal that suited all 3 parties - selling club, player & buying club.

You can defend Robbo without having a go at Kerkez.

Massive game on Saturday v palace, if we can win that then I think fifth is ours but lose and its squeaky bum time, its amazing Chelsea have lost last 4 without scoring so I dont think their manager will be there much longer

Absolutely but I'm also able to point out the developing narrative that everything is ok at LB.

That we spent 40m on a player to put in a shift whereas we actually thought we were getting something of a technician, firing up and down the left wing and producing asissts.

Anyway, picking on Robertson seems crazy when players who play alot more have been struggling all seaso

"Everyone does know" Do they?

Archie Gray or Kudus would be fine squad options. Porro too and maybe Sarr.

Age profile is good for all of them.

But I also think we can find better than all of them in the market. Wouldn't go near Xavi Simons and van de Ven is likely not worth his wage level

On a pure business level it would be easy to say Slots won the league, got to the latter stages of the CL twice and now looks like securing CL football next season. It would be easy to let his contract play out.

We don’t need to rehash the 50 alternative reasons why that would be terrible.

Personally looking at Slot now versus 7 to 8 games ago, he looks a lot more relaxed. It to me looks like it’s been worked out behind the scenes and his deal is done he walks away at the end of the season head held high.

This week alone he gives the team days off surely with a 130 million quid striker who is not integrated into the team there’s something he could be doing on the training pitch to prep for a pretty important derby. Even more so considering Ekitike’s injury.

I think he’s realised now the jobs beyond him in terms of how much you have to give of yourself in that role. And for the club missing out on the few alternative managers that will be available in the summer is really too big of a risk.

Would love to get Archie Gray,can cover a number of positions,something we lack in the current squad

Sounds like Konate is staying

"We are close to an agreement. For sure there is a big chance I’m here next season."

"There are many things people have said but for a long time we have spoken with the club and we are close to an agreement. I think everyone wished for that for as long as possible but we are in a good way. "

"I have a special relationship not only with the fans, but with every single person who works at the club. This club means so much to me.”

Good news that.

I've not been confident in Ibou this season but there's enough turnover as is, the more players we can retain the better.

I think they might do this too. They have evidence that Slot can do good things with a good squad and while this season has been a disaster, there are some real reasons for this. The amount of individual errors that were directly involved in us losing points and games felt unfortunate and baffling at times.

On the other hand, Alonso could come in and galvanise the supporters who are definitely fractured at this point. I think FSG love the idea of having someone at the helm that will buy them time Slot had this in his first season, Klopp had this for years and Alonso will have a season or two probably.

If West Ham went down i would like us to enquire about Matheus Fernandes
