Your best players are sometimes your most in-form players though? E.g. Alisson/Trent in cold Vs Kelleher/Bradley in rhythm *could* be worse players on the day

INEOS arrived at Man Utd on a wave of goodwill but ticket price rises put that at risk The drive to increase revenue is now affecting matchgoing fans and supporters' groups are not impressed

I wrote about the increasing contradictions of Sir Jim Ratcliffe’s persona and project at Man United. There’s the obvious ones in this tickets increase but even more fundamental ones in the quest to simultaneously build a world-beating team and world-beating stadium.

Please be true 😂

Fingers crossed on Konate's injury, but hard to see how he plays on Sunday given how he was hobbling at the end (rumours of MCL...). Probably Gomez that comes in rather than Quansah if need be?

Thought for the first time last night that Kelleher and Bradley gave Slot real food for thought. Obviously Alisson and Trent are better at their best, but might just be better to go with the form players Vs City than bringing Trent and Ali in cold.

What a result last night. Incredible way to break Real's hold over us - great to see after he also broke the Old Trafford voodoo. If we can win at the weekend this will be an all timer week!

Don't think Salah makes those comments if he doesn't want to stay / has other offers on the table that he prefers. Hopefully a tactic to turn negotiations into a concrete offer ASAP. Over to you, LFC

0-1, 1-1, 2-1, 2-2, 2-3 is a lovely flow for a game. Stressful when it involves your team though!

Great result in the end! Very stressful. Salah looks like a man possessed at the moment... Roll on Wednesday

I think only Diaz played 180, Macca 154 & Nunez 135 minutes!

Seven LFC players played the 180 minutes!

Caoimhin Kelleher – 180
Ibrahima Konate – 180
Andy Robertson – 180
Conor Bradley – 180
Dominik Szoboszlai – 180
Wataru Endo – 180
Luis Diaz – 180

Oh jeez, is he a doubt? I thought he was fine... Definitely Gomez if there's any doubt over his fitness!

Would go with:
Kelleher
Bradley Konate VVD Tsimikas
Jones Grav Szobo
Salah Darwin Gakpo

For Southampton. Then Mac, Robertson, Diaz in for Madrid. Then can make a call for city based on form and fitness.

Any objections?!

Cunha is a belting player. Wonder if Wolves would sell him

Kelleher, Bradley, VVD, Konate, Tsimikas, Grav, Szobo, Jones, Gakpo, Darwin, Salah. Robertson, Mac, Diaz get a rest after internationals.

Madrid game is a bit of a free hit, so I'd hope they don't have one eye on it!

A Feyenoord fans take on Arne Slot & what us Liverpool fans should expect in the months and years ahead. #LFC 👀🔴

I'd say someone who doesn't feel out of place in a pub "world xi" conversation (not very quantitative I know!). Limiting it to 3 per position I guess wouldn't allow for a couple of years in which there were, say, 5 absolutely incredible strikers knocking about scoring 45 goals each

Southampton (A) - Win
Real Madrid (H) - Win
Man City (H) - Draw
Newcastle (A) - Draw
Everton (A) - Win

Would more or less guarantee top 8 in CL, and 10/12 in the league keeps us top

Feel like wherever the negotiations end up, we should have an idea fairly soon given they are free to negotiate with clubs abroad in less than 2 months. Hopefully we get some news this international break before it starts distracting on the pitch...

Gut feel now on the big 3 #LFC contracts:
🟢 VVD: seems like he wants to stay, probably on similar £££
🟠 Salah: already earns more than anyone else at the club. Can't see that gap being widened further, but seems happy
🔴 TAA: on paper the most straightforward, so feels ominous that we're still here

Absolutely insane Liverpool FC kit

Anyone remember which season Liverpool wore this kit?

Probably a bit dependent on if we need to buy a new CB, RB and RW....

Jones too!

Yep! If this is right, you can imagine him, Jones and Konate being next priorities. Kelleher looks like leaving either way in the summer.

Seems very high for Chiesa and very low for Jones, Diaz, and Kelleher?
Can also understand why there might be a reticence from Edwards and Hughes to put Trent at the top of that list, given how Slot appears to use fullbacks in his system.

Think it's likely? I wonder if they might need to be holding back their cash for summer now, given where we still are with the contracts and what could need doing...

Think it is and always has been pretty obvious that referees all have football opinions and biases (how could they not?), but can't get my head around him being so brazen on camera about it? Asking for trouble. Hard to see how he could referee in the premier league again

Would love us to beat City. Feels like a while since we last did it! Everton away at the end of a tough run with a short turnaround feels like a banana skin

There was loads of noise around this last bank of fixtures, but I reckon these next 5 will be the toughest and most decisive of the season (for the league). Last Goodison derby too!

Great news. 2 weeks off to focus on getting that contract signed!

No Ramsdale too!
