It’s Friday night and I’m starting my 10 days off work, so cracking open something a little special. This BA Manchester Christmas Ale is rather superb and hitting the spot nicely. #Beer #BskyBeer

Would agree with this. Look at the Konate comments yesterday. He was probably trying to say something positive, but comes across really badly.

Off work next week and going away for a few days, so did the sensible thing and ordered some beers to take with me. Beer, relax, nice scenery. That’s me sorted. #Beer

Watching the Sunderland GK being able to walk out of his box, ball at his feet, with zero press at him from any LFC player is infuriating. Given Sunderland so much time on the ball to make decisions. Where’s our urgency? #LFC

Every LFC fans reaction when Slot opens his mouth….

What baffles me about Slot and his press conferences is that he knows he is under scrutiny, knows fans aren’t happy with what he is saying. But there’s no change of tone or style, he carries on saying this stuff. Why not make things easy for himself and take a lighter tone? #LFC

Have you found a favourite beer of the weekend?

@deltrems.bsky.social hope you are having a good second day at Darkside!

Post stout beer at The Brewery Project. Burger and even more beer suits me. #Beer

I’m round the other side near the doors in the other bar. Let me know before you go so I can say hello!

On a flexi day Friday today, so off to Wigan for the afternoon. Wonder what could be going on in Wigan this afternoon…. 🍻

I’ve had one of those weekends where it has been full of house stuff. Spent most of it painting. I’m finally sitting down to relax and enjoy what is left of my weekend, so a beer is deserved. #Beer

First 30 minutes aside, really good performance that. Great to follow up the midweek game with another good result. So many good performances out there tonight, but Konate stood out considering circumstances. Deserved his goal and a nice moment. #LFC

Yeah that was a nice touch by them.

Commentator said that Newcastle have come here without any fear. Who comes to Anfield with fear anymore? The β€˜fortress of Anfield’ has been destroyed this season. #LFC

These rumours of LFC getting rid of Jones have to be utter bullshit right? I mean no sensible club would get rid of a player like that, home grown, local lad. #LFC

Made me laugh that Slot celebrated every goal but when Chiesa scored he looked annoyed. πŸ˜‚

Good result which will hopefully boost some confidence. Think Qarabag played into our hands quite a bit today by trying to play nice attacking moving football. Credit to them for trying to play nice football and not just sitting deep. #LFC

We are dominating this now. Definitely time to give Nyoni, Rio, Cheisa minutes and rest some players.

3-0 up and looking comfortable. Want to see a few players subbed off and rested, ahead of the NUFC game on Saturday, by 60th minute mark at the latest. #LFC

I agree. I think Bradley is another Gomez. When in form they are great, but can’t be relied upon. Frimpong I think has been unlucky as I believe his injury record was good before joining us. Something around his management at LFC clearly not right.

Don’t understand why Gakpo is playing and not Rio. Considering Slot will say Etikite needs a rest at some point, and we don’t have Isak, then Gakpo needs to be the backup striker option. Gakpo should be coming on for Etikite later in the game to rest Etikite. #LFC

Ramsey will sit wasting away on the bench, but getting a single minute.

28.01.2026 20:08 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

We still won’t sign a single defender this transfer window though.

2 minutes into the game and what looks like a hamstring injury for Frimpong. I cannot wait for this season to end, it’s a mix of shit football and shit luck. #LFC

Think Slot is in a difficult position tomorrow. He is saying players are in the β€˜red zone’ so do they need resting ahead of NUFC and City games which are must wins, but at the same time he has to beat Qarabag confidently. Would be embarrassing to not perform at Anfield. #LFC

One thing I can say with certain is a couple of glasses of wine and switching off from the football is 100x better than watching Liverpool in the premier league these days.
