’ book launch for his THIRD release - this telling the story of Liverpool’s legendary Flying Pig, Tommy Lawrence.

Ibrahima Konate for £36m is increasingly looking like one of those deals every European heavyweight is going to look at at one point and groan when they realise how cheaply they could have secured one of the next ‘big’ talents.
The lad is utterly immense
#LFC
Quick reminder Liverpool signed Wataru Endo for £16.2m this summer...
For him to deliver THAT performance in his first

The neutral’s obsession with Darwin Nunez is really quite bizarre. I’m not sure I’ve seen anything quite like it
#LFC
He misses chances, fine.
🤷♂️ But he’s currently registering a goal/assist every 96.43 minutes 🤷♂️
Roy Keane calling Robertson a ‘big baby’ is outrageous.
No way he doesn’t lose his head if he’s a player on the pitch after the lino’s elbow. No chance
#LFC
We MASSIVELY take for granted this Liverpool side you know. Another Champions League semi-final under Jurgen Klopp in such a short space of time? Wow.
Enjoy this whilst it lasts, Reds
#LFC
Penalty for Palace after minutes of play has gone 🤦♂️
Can go back and retrospectively offer a penalty but can’t award Diaz a goal at Tottenham after a clear goal! Bonkers
City have just accomplished something genuinely incredible…
And everyone would still rather tune in to watch something authentic with Jurgen Klopp’s farewell speech.
Jurgen’s right: “When you win one time with Liverpool, it is worth as much as five with another club.”
If Liverpool have genuinely left the race for Bellingham that’s absolutely inexcusable on the club’s part after failing to sign a senior midfielder in years and holding out for Jude
#LFC
James Milner may not produce the odd spectacular goal or offer barnstorming runs through midfield with regularity, but the man has been nothing short of an incredible servant for Liverpool when called upon. From plugging gaps to critical
#UCL
camoes. Deserves a lot of praise
#LFC
As Klopp has made clear
#LFC
1) Alisson had a hand on the ball - goal shouldn’t have stood
2) Fabinho clearly fouled in the buildup - goal shouldn’t have stood
🗣Jurgen Klopp: “At Dortmund it was clear when I left I said ‘something has to change - either I go or a lot of other things change’.”
🗣 Hans-Joachim Watzke (2019): “Perhaps it would have been better if we had exchanged the entire team - not the coach.”
Whatever you think of him, Jordan Henderson is unquestionably a Liverpool legend and a superb captain.
Accounts here celebrating the idea of him *maybe* moving to Saudi is outrageous. He’s owed a lot more respect. End of discussion 👍
#LFC
I bow to the superior wisdom of Edwards and Hughes, but I personally don’t see the point of selling Darwin Nunez (as some rumours suggest) at this stage.
31 goal contributions in 52 games - goal/assist every 96.52 minutes.
Is there a better option out there?
#LFC
If Liverpool can't see fit to break their wage structure exceptionally for Mo Salah... who will they? There's a lot to be said for sustainability, but there needs to be some wriggle room on occasion for the truly special, top-tier talents
#LFC
If Liverpool had signed Ryan Gravenberch this summer, there’s an argument to be made he would have been seen as THE signing of the window judging by these performances in 2024/25
#LFC
🗣️ Interviewer: “You’ve got a bit of a tan there, did you pick that up in Liverpool?”
🗣️Slot: “You’ve been there for the whole week because I saw you last week and I see you now. You haven’t been to Liverpool? You don’t know the weather over there?”

This from Klopp on Endo is fascinating:
🗣 “If he’s not 30, firstly, I’m not sure we get him. Second, he was least on my list, just usually we don’t sign players of this age group… I’m really sure he can help us immediately.”
I don’t want to get carried away but you could really see just how brilliant that forward line is going to be for us in future.
That performance from Nunez-Salah-Gakpo may have already kickstarted the next great Klopp era

🗣️"I love him, he’s an unbelievable footballer, but nobody has taught him how to defend, I’ve said that before."
Ivan Toney felt the full weight of the law with his months long ban.
Why aren’t we talking about Man City’s 115 breaches? This isn’t a great Alex Ferguson team.
Cheaters. Financial dopers. Let’s call it what it is.
One of the finest performances by an English side in Europe that I've ever covered.

were fabulous and relentless, their creativity and work-rate exceptional. City made Real, a very good team, the European champions, look ordinary. City are the real deal.

Another BIG three points for Liverpool. Not to mention a confidence boost for Nunez!
Being the man to win all three points for Klopp’s men will be huge for him - he’s on the way up! 🇺🇾
#LFC
Spoke to Darwin Nunez's former trainer, Gabriel Gonzalez, about the Uruguayan's development at Penarol, standing out from the rest, and how he'll get on at Liverpool 🇺🇾🌟
#LFC
My take on the Caicedo situation: Brighton don't owe Liverpool anything so could, of course, renege on the deadline that allowed
#LFC
to take control of the transfer.
They'd get £110m in the bank and the end to the transfer saga they wanted.
BUT... Brighton have to... [1/3]

This is the moment Labour MP

“Whether there was a party in Downing Street on 13th of November?"

@itvnews
A game that meant little many will argue given how the group looked. But that’s a damn good result for Liverpool.
Napoli’s FIRST LOSS of the season. You can’t tell me Spalletti would have been happy with that
#LFC
Missed opportunity for Liverpool but not disastrous. Beat Arsenal and you’re top, simple as that.
To even be in a title conversation after last year and completely ripping out the plumbing in midfield is quite something
#LFC
Cannot believe some of the reaction to Arthur Melo’s impending loan move.
Calls of ‘Juventus reject’ before he’s even kicked a ball in a red shirt are beyond belief. Get behind him
#LFC
Nunez is going to get shafted online for these missed opportunities but he’s genuinely had an impact on this Liverpool game. That flicked ball to Salah from the corner further evidence 🇺🇾
#LFC
With Liverpool now not playing until October 1st that leaves Klopp with plenty of time to iron out more kinks and welcome back key injured stars. Chelsea postponement could be hugely beneficial for

Managers shouldn’t scream at officials.
BUT! As David Moyes pointed out: “If you look at the incident he [Klopp] got angry about - he was correct, wasn’t he?”
It’s fair to ask questions about the standard of officiating in the Premier League 🤷♂️
#LFC
The interrogation Salah and Klopp have been subjected to over this injury saga is ridiculous.
Salah’s not disloyal to his nation and Klopp isn’t keeping him hostage. End of discussion

Fascinating hearing Ange Postecoglou talk about how England’s midfield is missing a creative presence - someone with vision who may be prepared to gamble.
Think you’ve just described Trent Alexander-Arnold.
Group B was heralded as the Group of Death. Liverpool have made it look almost routine as they top their group with two games to spare. Phenomenal stuff from
#LFC
Can’t take away what Jordan Henderson brought to the side and helped deliver in 12 terrific years of service. He’s a Liverpool legend.
Equally, we can’t ignore the blatant hypocrisy underlining his switch to Saudi Arabia - a regime that despises the LGBT community. Let down

Pep Lijnders on Enzo Fernandez & Argentina 🇦🇷
#LFC
🗣 “What I like about Argentina - they play to their strengths. For example, Rodrigo with the ball was like a sweeper behind Messi…”
For the first time in a while, there really doesn’t seem to be a clear solution to Liverpool’s ongoing struggles. Have every faith it will be found eventually but the issues are so numerous they’re suffocating Jurgen Klopp’s men.
Recapturing consistent ‘intensity’ will be key.
Klopp confirmed ‘it looks good’ for both Fabinho and Thiago ahead of the
#UCLfinal
Thiago trained with the team yesterday and will train with them again today. Huge boost for Saturday
#LFC
Trumpian levels of lying from Gerald Darmanin on show at the French senate in his account of what transpired during the Champions League final.
The body of evidence disputing his claims cannot be ignored.
Bringing on Henderson/Fabinho wasn’t quite as disastrous as it’s previously been, but still a noticeable downgrade on Keita and Bajcetic. Liverpool need a lot more from their seniors
#LFC
They’re absolutely terrified of historical precedent being pointed out for fear of the masses going:
“Oh my god, they’re doing it again right before our very eyes!”
We've got to stop letting them get away with it.
Iraq.
Afghanistan.
Libya.
Every single time, the warmongers bring us catastrophe - and the very worst fears of the critics are vindicated.
Gaza is no different.
A couple of points on Darwin Nunez:
1) It’s pre-season. We shouldn’t be hitting the alarm bell even if he struggles throughout.
2) We wouldn’t spend a potentially record-breaking fee on Nunez without a certain degree of certainty around the transfer working out
#LFC
What a title race this is shaping up to be.
Game at a time for Liverpool will be the mantra guiding the club, of course, and rightly so as Jurgen Klopp’s men continue to close the gap.
Huge opportunity
