Liverpool FC Forum / Re: LFC's next manager - chat and informed speculation
« Last post by rob1966 on Today at 09:53:09 am »Konate had injury issues before we signed him, as did Thiago. Jota also had lots of niggly spells out for Wolves and we signed Nunez despite him having suffered an ACL rupture a few years ago. Maybe we should look at players who have proven that they have a good availability record?
Matip was hardly ever injured in Germany.

Liverpool FC Forum / Re: Mohamed Salah - Best in the World *
« Last post by PhilV on Today at 09:52:21 am »My take is simple, I love Mo, I respect what he has done for this club and he is a legend.
Legends are still held to a standard of behaviour, that goes for him, Klopp and anyone associated with the club. That open disrespectful behaviour was not ok, after Klopp cooled it with the post match interview, he again was still kicking off when he walked past... he is being petulant, this is not ok.
The manager is the boss of the team, he has tough calls to make but I always say the best way to answer the manager if he drops you, or tells you to go prove yourself no matter how many goals you've scored, you go out there and put in a performance to make him regret dropping you, or whatever.
This is very poor from Mo and he deserves to be disciplined for it. Really disappointing. Don't like players thinking they are bigger than the manager or too big/legend status to get away with this behaviour.

« Last post by Garlic Red on Today at 09:51:58 am »So does that mean it’d be ok for Hughes to make a fuck up of our transfers this summer if it’s early on and it’s his first season at a big club? I think this summer, we need to get at least 3 or 4 transfers spot on or else we’ll be sliding even further behind city and Arsenal who will no doubt strengthen their squads as well.
It doesn’t mean it would be ok because there are no parallels to be made.
One was his first transfer window as a TD, not long after retiring as a player. He’s coming here with 7-8 years of experience under his belt in the job. The expectation here is every signing is a good one, they present good value and he gets the deal done in a good time to maximise the opportunity of a pre season and minimise the settling in period.

« Last post by robertobaggio37 on Today at 09:51:53 am »If you are going to sign players like Kudus, you dont sign him after he has made a big move. Since that big move he has been good but isnt good enough for us. It would be paying a premium for a decent player. We need better.
Inclined to agree. Kubo looks more likely imo.

Desperate times , “its how you play mate” . Spurs fans will definitely want city to win, but to be fair to Ange hes not bought into their small time bitterness and wants to build a competitive football team.
Theyll still lose because theyre hopeless at corners and city have a lot of height so will do what we did yesterday.

« Last post by killer-heels on Today at 09:49:27 am »Well, I hope it happens because our current fitness team have been in charge where 3 of the last 4 four seasons has seen history making levels of injuries.
Konate had injury issues before we signed him, as did Thiago. Jota also had lots of niggly spells out for Wolves and we signed Nunez despite him having suffered an ACL rupture a few years ago. Maybe we should look at players who have proven that they have a good availability record?

« Last post by rafathegaffa83 on Today at 09:49:24 am »The Gakpo debacle not even getting a mention in some big media outlets, podcasts etc. The Salah/Klopp situation distracted away from it probably.
I said this was likely to happen. It was so obvious.

Missed the bee connection at first. Good clue. Knew there was an exercise one but could t get the 4th. What’s a bridge? Then I thought there was a US election/vice president connection with Carter, Gore and I think King but again was guessing at a 4th. Fucked it.
