7 wins from 9 won’t win it this season. Have a feeling we will need all nine to be honest.

Maybe those rumours of City / Pep wanting Cristiano Ronaldo before he went back to Man Utd were actually true. Haaland reminds me of late-career Ronaldo a bit. Also quite similar to how Pep used Lewandowski at Bayern.

He *was* far too good for that. A cruciate ligament injury for a player his age with an injury record like his, doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence that he’d be able to play at the same level again.

Nothing hipsters love more than an alternative idea that never got the attention they felt it deserved in its heyday. Well, that and looking like a scruff.

It’s not a true hipster formation unless you use a mix of words and numbers to describe it, eg. 3-diamond-3.

Stuttgart sold us their captain on the eve of the season, they nearly went down last year as well. They’re now third in the league and usually play a 4-4-2.

Saw a couple of post match interviews with Inzaghi speaking pretty good English. Amorim has good English too. Would only improve the more they got to know Trent and Curtis as well.

You might be right in Nagelsmann, Baz, hope you’re not though. He’s a dickhead, a German Brendan Rodgers imo.

I mean Amorim sounds enough like a left field smartest-guy-in-the-room pick already, in that none of the English football media will have heard of him. If he comes in and doesn’t do very well you will hear stuff like “I don’t know why Liverpool have gone with this unknown Portuguese fella, they could have gone with a proven winner” from all the usual idiots. While we’re on the subject of unexpected choices I wonder if we’re looking at that Sebastian Hoeness guy at Stuttgart. Has them fourth in the Bundesliga from nearly going down last season and they play some great stuff at times. Ideally wouldn’t be under consideration but I bet his stats look amazing.

Frank should be an absolute non starter. Surprised he’s even being linked, by anyone. Looks like a graphic designer but has his team playing like Allardyce’s Bolton.

Juve are shite this year. Madrid are the richest club in the world and their only domestic rival has imploded. Inter spent fortunes to get nowhere for about thirty years. They only started to win stuff after Calciopoli.

Seems to be the common sense consensus but a lot can happen between now and the start of next season.

A hatful? Against ... the Hatters? Worthy of a Thomas Muller gif that mate.

There's no way we pass up on Alonso if he wants to come here over Bayern.

Trent is such a unique player. I'd be really interested to see how he got on playing somewhere like Real Madrid. Or even under a different Liverpool coach.

Sorry Stacksy mate, not seeing any mention of Gakpo, Nunez or Diaz in that article. Or the phrase "manager signings".

Got a link?

Has anyone else moved significantly? Imo it's pretty meaningless at this stage

Was such a low quality game that. Not seen us play that half-arsedly in a long while. Well, we won the Arsenal cup game and then lost there in the league. I’d take a reversal of that.

Very slim chance 90 wins it imo. Arsenal and Abu Dhabi are just way too strong for the rest of the teams in this league. We are usually as well. Think Man City will draw a game between now and the end of the season, which puts them on 91. So imo 92 is the lowest that can win it, and that needs Arsenal to lose one or draw two. It’s going to be extremely tight.

Alberto Moreno has that effect on people

Basically the only way we don’t get Xabi is if he chooses Bayern or Real Madrid (or staying at Leverkusen) instead. We will be going all out to get him, we’d be idiots not to.

Realistically we should be easily beating anyone we get drawn against, except Leverkusen.

And, of course, there will not be any trouble at the final. evo1878 Player Valuation: £5m Forum Supporter Yesterday at 1:31 AM New Add bookmark #80,753 yep imagining that carnage.

Honestly, I can’t believe they actually wrote headlines about local youths, fans of other teams, French police it was Madrid fans as well, and UEFA’s admin processes, and all of English football media just absolutely lapped it up Make those tickets digital, and have the tear gas ready for these utter Neanderthals. And on the subject of a young lad who’s played in a cup final, won more cups, and has more winners medals than the entire Everton team…. Saint Domingo Player Valuation: £80m Yesterday at 11:20 PM Add bookmark #80,770 Will be lucky to have the same career as Jordan Ibe, Harry Wilson and Ben Woodburn, a load of other kids they hyped up and did absolutely nothing. Once the doper leaves these academy kids are all going to be starring on the next season of Welcome to Wrexham. In short, if you’re tempted to have any sympathy for these deadbeats over their points deductions, don’t. You should be treating them as something you stepped in that needs to be scraped off your shoe. That Harry Wilson shout is especially mad, he’d probably be their best player
