Not that it makes much difference, as every man and his dog knows Isak will never play for Newcastle again, just delays matters; but it’s frustrating as all heck watching Newcastle show Utd levels of incompetence in the market in yet another transfer. All we can do is wait like but it isn’t half frustrating watching them make a pigs ear of things once more.

Maybe Isak puts a formal transfer request in today like Lookman did yesterday? (Which should expedite things with Chiesa hopefully. 🤞🤞.).

All the best mate in your new endeavors. Great city to live in that in the French Alps. Wonderful development experience of another football culture to go along with the culturall life experience you just can’t beat.

Outstanding business, on top of an all time outstanding window, from Hughes and Edwards, to get that fee for a player with a mere 14 games (9 starts), and only 2 appearances the PL for L’pool. Who was effectively battling the likes of Nyomi and McConnell for back end, 6/7th depth in midfield. The 20% sell-on clause just tops it for a lad I’m sure will be back in England at a decent level in a few years time. Oh, and with a year left on his contract too.

Ridiculous what those two are pulling off.
 
As much as I adore the mad *******, it’s time.

Love the lad to bits. He’ll always be a cult hero among the match going support,

But that chance he missed from 6 yards out unopposed in Japan sums him up perfectly. No consistency at all in his game. He’s just not improved and got it under two top notch coaches now in Klopp and Slot. Despite massive backing and way more chances than his form has deserved. And the chances are he never will.

It’s time to part ways.

All the best Darwin lad. You’ll always be a Red.

Liverpool FC can confirm Darwin Nunez has completed a permanent transfer to Al-Hilal, subject to international clearance.Everybody at the club would like to thank Darwin for his contributions and wish him and his family all the best for the future.
 
Well deserved Palace. Better team overall. VAR tried to ruin it but the right team won.

Pool showed flashes with the exciting players upfront especially the new additions. But Salah was invisible and starved as everything went through Wirtz. Kirkez and Frimpong looked good going forward. But Pool in CM and at the back looked average at best. Gravenberch is a huge miss!

Palace gonna be a big issue for a lot of teams this season.

Yeah that backline will take some time getting used to, especially playing the defensive line as Kerkez was too deep at times. Well deserved to Palace as they came with a gameplan in that second half and delivered. Salah and Van Dijk had absolute stinkers and the latter didn't look match fit to me but hey, it's a glorified friendly if you don't win right :ROFLMAO: 🤷‍♂️

Yeah Van Dijk looked waaaay off it. Tbh i know it’s for a trophy and the main stuff starts the weekend coming. But what was noticeable as the match went on was how much fitter Palace looked than Pool. I’m sure it will click eventually for you guys. Well you’d hope. I still don’t see the point in going all out for Isak when you can see the depth in CM and CB ain’t good enough imo.

CM is fine once the fitness returns, as we have Macca, Gravenberch, Szbo, Curtis and Wirtz with Endo as the closer. Thats more than good enough to compete in all competitions. Its CB that is the issue but Isak is a signing if you have the chance to make you go for it. He raises the ceiling of this already electric attack and gives us someone to take the mantle away from Salah eventually as he declines.

Them CM options except Gravenberch and Macca aren’t great imo. Jones is a decent squad player but you would not want to rely on him there in to many games. And signing Wirtz for big money like that would be a massive waste. But I guess it would be an emergency option. And Szbo reminds me of Fernandes playing there for us lol. Just not good enough or disciplined enough. The quality in depth isn’t there imo mate to really challenge on all fronts. You will need your main 2 to stay fit pretty much the whole season.

I sort of agree with Isak in terms of some players you just have to go for (same with us and Baleba) but still think the money could be better spent to make your squad deeper overall. All things said your definately up there as one of the faves 100%!
 
Agree to disagree Curtis is more than good enough to come in and play a role and Szbo has looked terrific during pre season playing deeper, just need to learn that he can't take risks on the ball. Some great plays today from him but football fans can be fickle and just remember him turning over the ball. We'll see but for me its just about getting the team to gel as quickly as possible and the first 25mins showed their quality. Get points on the board as quickly as possible and get the fitness up.

Yeah can do a job there but as seen today against proper CMs who Harry and press and are athletic he will get swollen up just like Fernandes does for us and will like me the biggest reason we struggle in games this season unless we adress it. Agree on your fitness it didn’t look good after 50 mins. And your still well more than good enough to get the points on the board!
