This - used to have me in stitches

I would personally pay a bit lower than that for Max Aarons Wonder what’s gone on with Trippier at AM? He has been quite good for them

Max Aarons is a YES from me - he looks exactly like the RB we’ve needed - has everything a modern day full back requires

The only thing I remember from this game is Barry Davies saying “Akeke” Don’t remember anything else from this game apart from the obvious highlights in the years that followed

Was reading an article on the Bundesliga, one of the major reasons why they need to complete the season is in order to get the final payment from the TV rights - if they don’t get this, then a number of German clubs will go insolvent Don’t know where the PL is up to with payments? Think they have their final instalment? The PL I believe have to pay TV mopney back to the sponsors , hence the panic over where we are with when and it should be finnished So kind of similar to Germany then - this is going to be a nightmare for the respective boards

Caulkin got that quote directly from the buyers

Sent shivers down my spine that. That’s what Caulkin said too (the shivers bit) - he (GC) got this from someone close to the takeover This is the quote for the Pod on the Tyne - canny podcast this week

Keiran Richardson, nut megged twice in the game irrc but the ten yard one was brilliant. That 2nd half performance from him during that game was immense

It was on the wing for sure - left I think with Sterling on right (Henderson and Gerrard in the middle with 2 up top) This was under Rogers - left in a midfield 3 under Klopp I think

No way Liverpool’s title can be tainted - they needed 2 points from 9 games? It’s the only certainty there is in football

Surely the photo of the SOL after we’d been relegated should be here

There’s definitely a bit of the Ronaldinho syndrome with Bale - Bloke has won a heck of a lot, some players just lose the hunger after such a period of sustained success in their careers Plus he’s very injury prone

Tbf it would have been quite deep for him

To increase our commercial revenue massively?

Why not? He’s long wanted a project in England, loves the league, has learnt the language, and knows that he is still learning and a young manager, hence why he’s turned down bigger jobs like Real last year. It's completely deluded to think Nagelsmann would leave for us man Why though? I think he’ll be at RB for at least 2 more seasons until he feels confident to make leap - RB will complete his footballing studies so to speak

I think he does..... similar style to Ancelotti I think Not sure how I know this btw

It’s about seizing your opportunity and aiming higher than what you already have - has Steve Bruce not followed this principle in his career? How many jobs has he binned in order to go elsewhere?

Definitely, not far off top 6. Not that I don't want players, but we don't need to rush it necessarily. It’s all about positive and astute recruitment for me - recognising you have positions of weaknesses and addressing them accordingly - having a proper left and right back for starters will make a huge difference

I’d imagine £50m a year. Can’t see it being big money like City or Chelsea back in the their hay day. If they increase the revenue streams then you are looking at least £70m a season easy - our income from non TV is pathetic

Doucoure is good shout because I remember Man City's first step was to buy their rivals' best players (Lescott, Barry, Santa Cruz, Given etc). Until we can attract the elite, let's go for Doucoure, Ruben Neves, Chilwell etc. Not Grealish though because he seems like a twat. Doucoure and Samoure from Lille would be ideal Then we can have Longstaff and Shortstaff too

For the amount you would spend on these - you can get some of the worlds elite from abroad possibly for the same price

Don’t want Favre - good manager but also big time bottler

I’d definitely buy a couple of strikers Cedric Bakambu Luca Jovic Jozef Martinez William Jose Timo Werner Any 2 of the above for the time being

“Well, did you know me mams a Geordie, you know it’s in me blood”
