Dont quote me on this not making out to be in the know but someone who grew up with Semenyo has basically told me that he will be a Liverpool player come end of Jan window. He could be chatting a whole lot of bollocks but hey thought I'd pass it on.

Kinda makes sense considering the market opportunity with his release clause and us needing a direct winger with pace. Dont think he is technically pleasing but he is both footed and when you watch his acceleration and physicality to say he is explosive is an understatement.

What happens next for Liverpool’s top talents Rio Ngumoha and Trey Nyoni?

With Premier League minutes hard to come by, Liverpool need to find a pathway to develop their best young players

That would add even more weight to the rapidly growing Semenyo rumours for January mate. Which would be another superb addition on top of the nailed on Guehi pick-up January or the summer for the imperious transfer guru's Edwards and Hughes.

Regardless, absolutely NO need to rush Rio at his tender age. A Championship loan the second half of this year and next would be perfect for his development which is already way ahead of the curve. And it wouldn't do Trey any harm either to continue developing on someone else's ticket getting regular pro minutes. Something that is so hard to afford teenagers when you are the champions playing at the level we do.
 
Why do you even need Sem. You already have Salah, Gakpo, Wirtz, Isak, Ekitike, Chiesa. You can’t even get that lot to gel then throw Semenyo into the mix. Plus that young star coming through. Doesn’t make any sense to me. And just wreaks of there being unrest and more problems getting it to click. But good player no doubt.

That’s nearly as bad a take as your horrific take on Real Madrid.

Nearly.
 
Not strictly football, but as most everything else links our little corner of the Worlds two great City’s, not least top music, it proper saddens me tonight learning of Mani’s sad passing.

Proper Mancunian ….. Nay, North West giant. Bonafide LEG-END! And someone that will be sadly missed both ends of the East Lancs and far beyond.

God rest Mani lad. Try not to cause too much havoc up in the great stage in the sky. ❤️ 🙏
 
Not as bad as “the imperious transfer guru” 😂😂

Anyway a bit of extra to the semenyo transfer. It’s only active for the first 2 weeks of January then the clause expires and Bournemouth won’t sell. He then has a lesser release for in the summer. And where he decides to go will be based on the most guarantee of game time. That’s from Ornstien and Ben Jacobs. Utd, Spurs, Arsenal the other clubs seriously interested
 
Utd and ‘Spurs competing with L’pool and Arsenal for players …..

Have we been transported back to 1999? 🤷‍♂️

Important safety and security update for matches at Anfield - Liverpool FC

Liverpool FC has made an important change to its matchday operations with an updated safety and security policy now in place for all games.
www.liverpoolfc.com www.liverpoolfc.com

Fuckwits! 😡

They’ve done this the last two homes on council safety advice and it’s been a complete cluster F getting in.

There's absolutely NO statutory mandate to search everyone and kick-off must be delayed for any delays caused by this bollocks. They have zero reason to conduct these searches on everyone.

True but a market opportunity is a market opportunity same as when we signed Gakpo a couple of windows ago. 60ish mill for a player of his calibre and prem proven is a good pickup. Plus he can play both sides equally as well. He reminds me of Mane in terms of his explosiveness and if you've watched us this season we lack that direct winger. Either way a good pickup and passing on what ive heard I genuinely think he will be a Liverpool player soonish.

True mate?

You mean apart from the nonsense of not needing a wide player with currently having no Salah succession plan. Along with him being gone in few weeks time foe a month or so the AFCON. The manager, for whatever reason. not liking Chiesa and him having little future here beyond this year. No left sided competition for Gakpo outside of a newly turned 17-year-old nowhere near ready to be burdened with that?

Or the nonsense about there being unrest and nottin' clicking? Less than a third into the season with absolutely no context at all about all the change and tragedy they've had to deal with.

So apart from the whole post being utter codswallop, what was 'true' again?

Proper nice run now to end 2025 back at the top the table with 5 home games out the next 8. And no hard aways among our travels. Whilst Arsenal and City have it much tougher to end the calendar year:

Ignoring the Palace LC game we gave up before KO, 3 wins out of the last 5 is steady progress after the 4 game losing dip that went before. Now to step it up and go on a winning run through to the NY.

Title races should never be talked about until Easter. THAT’S when they start. The next 4 months leading up to that determine whether you’ll be one of the runners.

The jockeying for that position starts this avvy with a proper hate filled, old school rivalry. And a massive score to settle after last season.

Straight into these scab bstards Redmen!

True that whatever Slot is trying to get across clearly isnt working as evident by forest beating us 3 nil as it currently stands. Not true that we dont need a wide player as I mentioned.

Sigh... well, there goes that. We actually started the game well, but the Konate bizarre corner giveaway and cascading mistrakes onwards was just a symtom of how slow the play was yet again. 11th in the table is currently unnacceptable for me, and less about the title now, but more about just arresting this relegation form instead of one off games here and there.

There's a reason I don't do any smack talking before matches :LOL:

Which wasn't what was said.

That wasn't smack talking. That was just the situation.

Which madly hasn't changed after today's games. None of this PL season is making a lick of sense.

How bad was the walkout at the end or was it just typical online fans making it out to be more than it was. It did look quite empty around the 80ish min.
