Sucks. It’s gonna be a very different team this year. Everyone talking about all the talent brought in, but lost 3 key players (1 tragically). Lot of work to do to get everyone playing together & all in the same page. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Liverpool struggle some this season, then bounce back next year.
I kind of expect it. There are probably going to be some more outgoings. Nunez is almost certain to go. We are going to need an attacker (wing or forward) and another CB. Gomez is already hurt again, looks like an achilles.

THAT was some game to start the season. Liverpool looked great going forward, the back isn’t a finished article by any means.

Spurs lost Maddison for the season to ACL tear and Son to MLS/LA Galaxy. Hoping we can get Eze and Savinho done, but still going to miss a true #10 on the sqaud.

So yeah, about par for the course at N17.

Wow! Sucks for Maddison. I think Son is past his prime so probably not a huge loss for his wages.

Have to sign at least one of the two center backs we’re working on. Van Dyke, Konate & injury prone Gomez won’t get it done.

I think they get them both….and we only have one out and out strike. If you watched today…it was an example of what makes Liverpool so special. Salah after the game was freaking awesome.

Salah just wanted that goal more than the defender wanted to defend. 10 opening weekend goals now. Arguably the best premier league forward ever. And yeah, we got the CB from Italy officially today. Good chance we get the one from Palace too.

What a GAME! Full credit to Newcastle, they played harder than we did...but quality will tell. RIO! 16 years old. Forget Isaak, we need another CB.

Not pretty. That was a battle from start to finish. Thought Szoboslai did a great job playing out of position at right back. And Rio is a special player. Only 16 & already a legitimate good Premier League player. Definitely need another CB. Van Dijk is getting old fast & Konate just isn’t the answer at the other CB position. But that was a big road win over a real Chsmpions League contender.
