Welcome to Liverpool FC, Federico Chiesa Cavaliere

[peterbread]

I think it’s due to the homegrown numbers available which means they can’t register as many players as usual. Someone explained somewhere else I thought I’d copy it so everyone can see the reasoning.

The full squad on the UEFA site is:

GKs

Alisson, Mamardashvili, Woodman

DFs

Gomez, Endo, van Dijk, Konaté, Kerkez, Bradley, Leoni, Robertson, Frimpong

MFs

Wirtz, Szoboszlai, Mac Allister, Jones, Gravenberch

FWs

Isak, Salah, Gakpo, Ekitiké, Ngumoha

We only have 5 locally-trained players out of 8 maximum: Woodman, Gomez, Bradley, Frimpong, Jones, so our max squad size gets reduced from 25 to 22.

Ngumoha will become locally-trained next season I think, but he's currently not old enough to count.

This can be supplemented by "List B" players who are essentially the academy kids. So Nyoni, Bajcetic, Nallo etc.

Is it right he is out of the champions league squad?

I would have thought he would be more effective against European teams. I hope he still gets minutes now isak is here.

Pivotal again tonight with his pass to Salah

This one aged well

There’s always someone lurking in the background just waiting for. I loved Fede’s goal last week as he wasn’t shown much love or trust last season but bounced back & took the goal well. Rio’s was super special though, first PL goal in a hostile away game when we looked 2nd best for most of the game & he nicks all 3 points.

He was quite lively and played quite well. He’s worth keeping

[Mr Pink]

I don't think that I'm going to enjoy and cheer another goal as much as that again this season. Absolute scenes

This one aged well

A lot. Team of tournament euro 2020.
He was a huge talent.

Hopefully he can get more mins and show everyone he's got a lot to offer.

[Charly]

Lets hope he can be a bit more, Its only 4 years ago he was in the 100million bracket.

Really. He doesnt stand out in any meaningful way. What was he doing to garner that valuation?

Chiesa looks to be staying now. He’s told the club he doesn’t want to leave anymore. Let’s hope this is the start of him building up a bit of momentum and becoming a bit of a super sub for us.

Let me know when this thread re-enters the earth's atmosphere.

Or, apparently, the 60,000 fans at anfield on Friday, not to mention the +1,000,000 at the parade, where it was probably the most sung song. You must know something the rest of us have missed. Lucky we have you here to set us straight

To be fair when I first read comments I did assume there had been some offence taken. Coupled to your **** Juve comments.. I admit, I definitely got excited.

But I think it's irrelevant whether any offence has been taken.
I think Juventus should just be a club we treat very differently to any other, and don't sing songs about them full stop.

[vlahka]

Add me to the lot who didnt see any connection and just thought of it as juventus crying they lost an awesome player they didnt stick with and they can watch as he smashes us to titles. Buuuut if the juventus fans get upset then I say sure, edit some of the words no problem.
