Hope you have the same energy then now you know it just didn't happen at Liverpool

You'd have time for him if he just came out and said it was all for money, the 2034 world cup posts from the players that have gone there are just weird, dystopian stuff.

For all the furore of us leaving all our senior midfielders leave in the summer it's good to see it was all a waste of people's energies, klopps midfield 2.0 is a bif upgrade, Henderson is a distant memory.

That's the question he was asked by The Athletic. He's either outright lying or, at the very best, being extremely disingenuous.

As a Spurs fan, he was a player I never really rated but I actually admired him for how he presented himself in public. This is shameless stuff.

Vicxas · 06-10-2023 1:00pm

Henderson has completely ruined himself in England with these nonsense interviews. Makes him look stupid

steve_r · 06-10-2023 1:07pm

Apart from Torres and Diouf, has anyone else exited the club in such a negative way?

It's bizarre that Naby Keita (22 mins played this season) ended up getting a better send off than the captain who lifted the Cl and every domestic trophy available.

The con job that FIFA and Saudi Arabia are pulling for 2034 is so brazen and for Henderson to be a part of it is beyond disappointing.

They have awarded 2030 to countries in Europe, Africa and South America thus eliminating any country from there to bid for 2034.

2026 is in North America.

So, they have basically cleared the field for the Saudi Sportswashing Project.

Depressing stuff.

They're well paid for it.

Well you've got the c*nt at the top coming out and stating it outright, Money will be continue to be spent on anything and everything to deflect/distract/distort.

Would be great if Australia put in a bid and won it instead, but its obvious what will ultimately happen

citytillidie · 06-10-2023 1:29pm

Gerrard also promoting Saudi Arabia 2034

Yeah and plenty were not happy saying we needed to keep henderson for his experience. Like fook we did

This has been a blight on football the last 2/3 years. there's even an Arsenal fan arrested over it last season, but yes off course Anfield is the problem!

5starpool · 06-10-2023 3:12pm

If Saudi Arabia want to pay me a few million to post some nice tweets or messages here I'm available, so hit me up MBS!

You got there ahead of me! 🤣

Girly Gal · 06-10-2023 10:04pm

The EL is working out quite nicely so far, new players getting game time to bed in, players coming back from injury and players with domestic suspensions (more of an issue than injuries so far this season) all getting time on the pitch, pretty much everyone is getting game time, which keeps the squad happy. Also the level of competition in the group stages isn't great so won't take a huge amount out of the players either. Really hope we take it seriously once we hit the knockout stages and meet tougher opposition, as we have a great chance of winning it. Hopefully we can continue the good start and momentum against Brighton on Sunday.

Fitz* · 06-10-2023 10:34pm

Sounds like Brighton will have some problems at full back Sunday.

Estupinan is injured.

Lamptey is a RB playing LB, and playing well, but struggles to play a couple games in a week and played 99 minutes in Marseille in an energy sapping game. Either he plays, tired, or Igor the CB plays there.

Veltman has to start at RB then, who also played 99 minutes Thursday night.

I think myself and some others were worried about strength in depth

It was never Hendo/Fab or Sobo/Mac (they were bought first).

It's more would Jones, Thiago and Elliott be sufficient depth. We've since added Endo and Grab now but let's wait and see how we get on of we ever have to play a big game without Mac and Sobo.

It's going great so far.

100%.

Also available 😂

BorneTobyWilde · 07-10-2023 10:08pm

Almost a 1/4 of the season gone, Spurs top, based on results tomorrow it's possible we could go second. Fast forward to 1/2 the season gone, Spurs still top, Liverpool on their tails, come May Spurs still hanging on, pipping Liverpool to the title by 3 points. At what point does the fact they have 3 points they shouldn't have matter. Will we all just hold hands and sing que sera sera. The situation needs sorting now, as I just know it's coming back to bite the PGMOL where it hurts. The unthinkable is very probable, this Spurs team is evolving, and pipping Liverpool to the title this season is not farfetched

I ain't a dig back in posts merchant but that's not how I recall your take on it,we all have our moments when we are actually right,it will be different the next time, it's going as well/ better than any of us expected, good times to be a Liverpool supporter for a lot of reasons, let's enjoy it.

noodler · 07-10-2023 10:28pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121207550#Comment_121207550

It's alright, I know what my take was.

We are heralding the performances of Sobo and Mac (to a lesser degree). They were already signed when Fab and Hendo were allowed to leave.

So it was never a Sobo/Mac vs Fab/Hendo discussion.

Letting Fab and Hendo go, before Endo and Grav were signed, was the discussion.

Widdensushi · 07-10-2023 10:46pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121207611#Comment_121207611

Your infatuation that fabinho was a serious loss was a big thing iirc, that was never going to be the case on last year's performance, apologies if I have the wrong poster but I don't think anyone else could see a role for him going forward.

noodler · 07-10-2023 10:53pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121207683#Comment_121207683

That's nonsense. I don't even think there was another poster with any Fabinho infatuation outside of wondering whether he could be as bad again.

You'd do well do find any post that supports this strange interpretation.

Whether or not Fab/Hendo, relegated to the subs bench, could still serve a purpose within the wider squad or whether they should be sold before we have cover was the discussion.

Widdensushi · 07-10-2023 11:07pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121207711#Comment_121207711

Wrong poster so, apologies,grey cells ain't going so good...

~Rebel~ · 08-10-2023 12:30am

For the money, the Fab offer absolutely had to be accepted I think. Was just way too good an offer for a player who looked so utterly crocked (and continues to as far as i'm aware - has since been dumped by Brazil too). The Hendo one seemed premature without a replacement lined up - though to be honest pretty happy with the way it's all turned out, particularly in light of his nonsense since.

Also wonder if we'll go back in for André in January for the long term DM position. He's taken Fab's Brazil spot, and is into the final of the Copa Libertadores with Fluminense's next month. If we got him, we'd have an absolutely monster midfield with real depth and serious youth.

Charlie19 · 08-10-2023 12:55am

I have to say the Hendo thing doesn't interest me at all.

He was a good captain whilst at the club and was very successful when there but I'd still regard Gerrard as been the best captain we had over the last couple of decades.

Ok what they're doing at the moment doesn't sit right with some but frankly it doesn't effect me and that's a selfish pov but what else can I say.

Liverpool fc moves on with new players and just enjoy the ride.

.. The law, what fcking law. Someone call the police, a ref corrected the offside, after restarting the game, he must be tracked down and placed behind bars.

~Rebel~ · 08-10-2023 2:48am

Just today the Chelsea game was stopped after the restart, while VAR did one additional check on Sterlings goal - breaking that supposed oh so important rule, and no-one cares, because it's just not a big deal to do that. VAR confirmed the call, and play restarted again, and everyone carried on with their lives.

TitianGerm · 08-10-2023 7:50am

Eight years ago today Klopp became Liverpool manager!! What a ride it's been.

paulie21 · 08-10-2023 10:52am

What team is likely today?

Ali

TAA Matip VVD Robbo

Endo Mac Szobo

Salah Nunez Diaz

I'd say gomez over Trent for at least the first hour. Midfield is probably Mac, Szobo, Gravenberch

This with Elliott for Endo

Fitz* · 08-10-2023 12:48pm

Elliott starts

TitianGerm · 08-10-2023 1:01pm

I'm disappointed that Gomez has lost his place. He's been very solid at RB the last few weeks.

Fitz* · 08-10-2023 1:31pm

Don't want to jinx it but I'm confident of the win today

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121209013#Comment_121209013

We have a lot to offer, as does Brighton, there will be goals, Brighton have conceded 14 goals in 7 games, only the bottom 4 teams have conceded more.

happyoutscan · 08-10-2023 1:52pm

4-1 Liverpool

Nunez hat-trick

Charlie19 · 08-10-2023 2:01pm

Nice of them to have the Beatles playing

McDermotX · 08-10-2023 2:20pm

Bloody hell

Mac Allister asleep. First 20mins has been evident that both sides need to be on the ball and aware of the lack of space.

Ali won't be happy either TBH

BorneTobyWilde · 08-10-2023 2:21pm

Saw that coming, Alisson must have had more touches than anyone on the pitch 20 mins in. Shocking how we are playing it around the back since the game started, play a forward pass ffs

happyoutscan · 08-10-2023 2:22pm

Jesus that is absolutely awful.

Utopia Parkway · 08-10-2023 2:22pm

That was like some of the abysmal goals we would concede last season. Jokeshop. Goal behind yet again.

McDermotX · 08-10-2023 2:23pm

Brighton working hard. Two on top of Elliot

Ken Tucky · 08-10-2023 2:23pm

Muck pure muck

Standing still waiting for a pass

Also the pass into McAllister wasn't on ffs

BorneTobyWilde · 08-10-2023 2:24pm

Alisson and VVD, like two kids in the park, playing passes to each other for 25 minutes straight.

This is not football

theoneeyedman · 08-10-2023 2:25pm

Slow passive passing just for the sake of it. That goal is on Virgil, the pass was slow and he fell into the trap that Brighton set for him. They knew that chance was going to be presented sometime in the game... Caught hook, line and sinker.

machiavellianme · 08-10-2023 2:27pm

We're playing like it's still Thursday night. Dreadful so far.

McDermotX · 08-10-2023 2:29pm

Brighton better all over here.

Quicker, stronger. We're fast asleep.

BorneTobyWilde · 08-10-2023 2:30pm

We're so easy to play through, we're making them look like a teams of Messi's
