Aaron Ramsdale: return to Southampton confirmed

Upgrading Pope is going to be a difficult challenge. If the Gk Isn’t close to being as commanding as Pope we will struggle to take to them. Even keepers most think are better overall like Pickford (obviously not him) have significant drawbacks. You lot will appreciate Popey one day. -
Klopp. Or bring back Zizou. This fancy tactico stuff isn’t for Madrid

Xabi has to go.

He’s not a good shot stopper. He don’t command his box. -
Ok I’m changing it. Soft as

Liverpool game is boring as fuck

No PSR issues for Liverpool man. Xabi has been worse at Madrid than I ever could’ve imagined. But he doesn’t have the same level of ego to deal with. Alonso has no aura at Real. No authority. A big name, successful player and coach at Real but it hadn’t translated. Liverpool is different and the flush squads tend to be more deferential to the coach.

If his point was purely that Salah hasn’t been performing this season and going to the media is unprofessional and makes him look overly arrogant - I would agree. But instead he’s done what Salah said he would do. Attacked Salah and Said a bunch of irrelevant things to denigrate one of the greatest players in Liverpool history. Even the tracking back thing is a lie for the majority of his time at the club. Shearer and Lineker spoke about it. Both having been in Salah’s shoes and said far more sensible takes.

But it’s not true. Football is a team sport aye. But Only Virgil Van Dijk has an argument of contributing more than Salah to Liverpools golden era. He’s put in more work produced more value than maybe 2 ppl at that club (Klopp). His contribution and Joe Gomez is not the same. He does deserve special treatment. Your comment about Isak is for other fans not me. Sure we’ve provided the platform for Isak to succeed but I still think Isak himself is a wonderfully gifted footballer and the second best striker we’ve ever had. He did that. I think Isak should’ve been compensated 12 months earlier and that would’ve helped us in the summer. Isak too was unprofessional and I’ve lost all love for him. But I won’t over credit others because he’s gone and is a prick. when Bruno leaves I hope we treat him with more respect. Shearer aside I don’t think anyone in the media would dare criticise Bruno the way Carragher. I don’t know why Carragher thinks he can talk so freely about a player that yas brought so much to his club. Like his greatest night for the club didn’t involve shipping 3 goals by half time

I’m of the opposite view. He’s lied and said he hasn’t criticised him on the pitch. Saying his legs have gone is criticism. He’s downplaying Salah by calling him a Chelsea failure. He’s also the player most responsible for this golden era and winning 2 PL titles. Before Salah Liverpool had been second string PL club for 30 years. Why didn’t he mention that? He didn’t speak highly of AFCON last season. Now he’s using it as a stick to claim Salah hasn’t achieved outside of Liverpool.

I didn’t like how we treated Bobby when he was on the way out. And I think he was right to want to phase out Shearer. Lots of people worked to undermine Robson though so when he lost the games there was no choice. We overindulged Shearer towards the end too. But I don’t think this situation is similar.

There’s only 1 player in world football that gets called selfish that has more assists than Salah. The selfish thing is overplayed significantly. If Slot needs Salah to track back he should tell him. If he doesn’t do it Salah should be told why he’s dropped. And if you drop Salah you have to win and Slot hasn’t. Slot has to go. Xabi Alonso will be available next week. Get your man.
