Of course I don't want to get relegated but if it happens and we still manage to completely revamp the academy, training facilities and set up a cogent hierarchy at the club, that's something of a W for me. The on pitch success is inevitable if the former is achieved, to a high spec.

Imagine turning up to dinner and Eddie's doing a slide show.

All well and good but has Amanda been sick in the fireplace of a pub whilst dealing with the Saudis? That's how the big boys carry on.

The volume of content atm. Please give me mooooaaar.

Pretty much confirmed that all decisions go through PIF and that whatever the decision they expect to be thorough in their "process". Wonder if whispers of Emelano (or whatever his name is) going to Saudi Arabia were true then. "If we make mistakes, we will own up to them and put them right." That's all I have ever wanted to hear.

Similar problem to us. Who else realistically, could they have got? I don't see Fonseca as any less of a risk.

At 13.30pm

Wonder if we could change the title of this thread to; Amanda Staveley and the board. Feels more appropriate since she's the face of the consortium.

Interview with Staveley coming up. Have we not got a specific thread for her and Godoussi?

I suspect he will never manage Liverpool (unless he was a caretaker), but I think he's smart enough to good a job at Villa.

Great appointment by them.

Don't see it personally. If you leave Liverpool you are probably joining Barca or Real or something.

Is that a new press conference table?

Good. Its about time players started prioritising the club. He can play for scotland when it's clear he's fully match sharp. They can fuck off. I knew Eddie would have been on to him.

Jog from one side to the other in time with the bleep. The bleeps get faster at every stage. It's an endurance test basically. Notably, the game was too evil to make Squid game.

Happy to give them a clean slate. Eddie will see what they are and aren't capable of. It will be make or break for Jonjo. His passing could be key in our rejuvenation if he decides to put in the graft. Otherwise, the championship beckons. Richie has earned the right to be a key voice. Whether he still has the legs to start under Howe is another question. Miggy is the one I'm looking out for. A real shame he's away on international duty.

"Look Jamaal, just wearing the armband doesn't mean you get to go around hitting people in training.... unless it's Jonjo." #Eddiestraining.

"Joelinton is it? Look Joe, if you actually aim the ball at the big rectangle net, you stand a better chance of not being called shit! OK, mate." #eddiestraining.

"Jonjo, when I call you a lazy cunt, I'm not really saying 'your a lazy cunt', what I'm actually saying is, I'm going to make you run until you puke to teach you a lesson. OK mate?"

Bloke put in a 12 hour shift today. Wouldn't shock me to see him rock up at the NU foundation do aswell.

Did big Mike ever go to one of these?

Turns out Joelinton was Mbappe all along.

And... I'm spent.
