If we win it, do you think he would turn up?

I don’t think next season is going to be as rosey as this year unfortunately

To be fair, think many of us thought the same about this season before it begun.



Enjoy the good times when we can, and then dream of them returning when we cannot.

I just don't see FSG spending the money required to replace all 3 if that's where it all ends up.

We would have no chioice. We need a new CB anyway.

We only have Bradley at RB, who is injured a lot

And we have nobody that replaces Salah (unless you regard Chiesa as such... Maybe Elliott who he doesnt seem to rate).

I know this is on top of a new LB, and a new striker, and 2 new midielders.

We might be able to sell Nunez, Jota, Chiesa, Endo, Elliott, Timmy to fund some of this.

Fells like next season will be tough if we dont resign VVD. That is a massive one. IOfeel like you can spread goals around, and we do create a lot of chances. Being tight at the back is much tougher imho.

I just don't see FSG spending the money required to replace all 3 if that's where it all ends up. The magic formula we were told when they came in was to buy the very best young players available and to sell them at their peak for big money and repeat. This is what puzzles me.

Rumours about Diaz and Nunez, but neither will merit giant fee's and if we do sell them, they'll need replacing too anyway. Renewing VVD and Mo's contracts (if we do) are also only postponing the inevitable, and they too will not generate big money in a year or two's time.

Lets hope they've identified some bargain targets, massive summer ahead.

I like Trent, seems like a decent lad so its a shame that one of the biggest names in the game has decided to leave us.

[Doc_Piptorious]

I wonder is there a chance that his injury gets worse and he ends up being out for the season?



Hope not though. Quite like the idea of him coming back and playing his heart out for the remaining games.


Whilst he has not played at the level of Salah or VVD this season, imo, he has still played a part in the team being where it is in the league and if we are to win the title, the romantic in me wants the squad that started the season to finish the season as a unit and not with some singled out for leaving.

[Cerbie]

Yes he could have. But the club should have tried. Perhaps they did.

I wonder has the perfect storm allowed this to happen though. When Jurgen announced he was leaving, then it was typical for trents team to say how they wanted to see who the new manager would be. Then when we signed nobody in the summer, it'd have been typical to say "we want to see how slot gets on and how ambitious lfc are"

Lfc are to blame for a lot of this but don't sell yourself as this lifer lfc guy that is living the dream either

but your final sentence is also spot on.

If he ever pulls on a red shirt again at Anfield I think he'll get some stick and it wouldn't surprise me if the Kop modify the scouser in the team for Curtis while Trent is playing. Backlash incoming, I hope he is ready...

[frank the tank]

Hoping we get them next season and Bradley leaves one on him ha

[frank the tank]

It's all well and good saying we should have sold him last summer, but he has to agree terms with any new club, and he could simply have refused and held out for his Bosman.

Alot of good wide players scattered all over La Liga..... in an attacking sense the Madrid front three will benefit greatly, but if Rodrygo is palying infront of him that would be trouble defensively for them.

Also agreed on where we go from here. Very excited about the possibilities of pace, power and dribbling ability.

so much quality out there, we have to trust that the lads we have in recruitment can find us some gems.

No surprises here. **** him, end of….

[Doc_Piptorious]

So that works out at 435K per week & 5 mill for family.

**** is he worth that value

Some talk that the €260k part of it is after tax, but that might be rumours being added to rumours



Nice work if you can get it though.


Just want to put it out there for Micky Edwards that I would be willing to sign for 35k a week before taxes and I do not even want a signing on fee.


Just think how proud all you guys would be watching games next season and being able to tell your wank socks that the guy on the ground receiving oxygen after trying to chase a winger once too often is the gob****e that used to post on here.

Starting to pop up online that TAA has formally agreed to terms with Real.

€260k a week for five years plus a €45m signing on bonus for him and a €5m fee for his agent (brother) are the rumoured magic numbers.

[kemm1]

Yep VvD is the most important player for us and that's no discredit to Mo. TAA isn't even in the same discussion, though good luck to him.
