Transfer ban etc. If Gerrard gets the Liverpool job in the next few years then things probably aren't going well on or off the pitch (or both) Yep, good point. You could say the same about Pep though who himself is very inexperienced as a manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Gonzo 8,190 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Apparently we're contemplating having 2 teams go out on the same day in two different competitions to manage the fixture pileup. If that League Cup side isn't just the U23s... I think it's a mistake and we should just pull out of the competition. Although binning off an actual competition for some FIFA created bullshit that only started in 2000 seems wrong... but there's actual money to be won in the CWC, so it's obviously going to be more of a priority to the club.

Rick 2,276 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 The EFL will buckle and change it. No way do they want a revenue maker like us forfeiting at this stage. It’ll be played in January at some point. I’d be stunned if we end up leaving the competition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike 3,009 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 You can't just put a team full of kids out against a Premier League side. Us fans might say things like that now and again, maybe half serious, but in all seriousness, they'd get battered and it would be no good for their development at all. There has to be at least a few experienced heads alongside them. I think Liverpool have got the balance right in the two League Cup games so far this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 1,437 Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Agreed that they'll move the fixture. Playing two games simultaneously, or playing three under 23's or forfeiting all do too much damage to the brand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 5,103 Posted November 1, 2019 Share Posted November 1, 2019 I hate how much I enjoy this incarnation if Liverpool. There is definitely a Je ne sais quoi about this team, that it hasn’t had in my lifetime at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Mel81x+ 3,613 Posted November 1, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted November 1, 2019 Liverpool should tell the EFL that they are out and not even bother about them rescheduling the matches. The hurt there is that the youngsters have played some excellent games to get this far and it would be a bit cruel to cut their chances of game-time.

I’m obviously fucking over the moon with how we are doing right now. Don’t wanna think too much about Life after Klopp. And as far as players go, we lost Coutinho at a time where he was very important and look at us now.

Its obviously a great time to be a supporter. We've been progressing nicely every season, won a European title and this season we're still ahead in the league. I agree with what was said above, we can't worry too much about Klopp leaving right now, enjoy it for what it is and I think the bigger fear is getting overturned this season as well. Next week plays a very important role in what the season may end up like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike 3,009 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Not worrying about that, just enjoying watching this side under this manager. There was a stage where you couldn't argue with our star players looking to move but I think the way this side has developed since coutinho left and the way things have gone for him we can legitimately say why would you want to leave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFCMadLad 2,080 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 (edited) If a player wants to leave, let them leave. Any of our first 11 would cost an absolute fucking fortune though. Klopp is the best manager in the world bar none btw. What he has done to this club is nothing short of astounding.

I'm mostly concerned that klopp may not extend and could feasibly leave in 2 years without having won the league. That would be a big blow. It's critical I think that we achieve more honours in the next two years.... Players-wise I'm not concerned. The premier league is probably the most interesting challenge in elite football right now so that puts us in good stead to keep players and attract new ones. Of course always a risk that we lose a great player but we are more diversified than we have been in previous years so we could get through it. I'm sure Mane to to Madrid will do the rounds again in the summer and make me uncomfortable Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMadLad 2,080 Posted November 3, 2019 Share Posted November 3, 2019 Mane said last week live on air that he wants to spend the rest of his career at Liverpool. If he leaves though, I'm sure we will spend the £200m well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
