If Ten Hag follows the pattern of other Old Trafford escapees, he’ll probably turn out quite decent.
To be fair ETH managed a pretty good and pretty fun to watch Ajax team before his Man U debacle.
After a decade, I’ve come to the realization that managers - and some players even - cannot be judged based on their performances at Man United. It’s a disease of a football club that just chews up everyone that comes to them.
Mate texted me. ‘Now you’re getting your prime Coutinho type of player back’ ![]()
Thoughts?
Does tick a lot of boxes that Coutinho used to offer.
We might have moved on well from Coutinho but that profile of player was always on the wishlist for me.
Hope its not a sudden bad back.

wow. racist.
It’s a matter of hours or days [for the Florian Wirtz deal] so Liverpool fans can get ready. [
Liverpool fans can be very confident. Deal is CLOSE and advancing very well. Conversations ongoing and now it’s about structuring the package. [
What about now?
Are they conducting negotiations in slow motion? They have been advancing for some time now. Can’t they finish their sentences at one go?
Richars hughes putting an offer in

Which one? Hours or days? What am I supposed to do with this? @Iftikhar is not going to like this.
We’ll have a party tomorrow.
We’ll have a parade on Monday.
The deal will be concluded on Tues/Wed.
The medical will be done on Thursday.
We probably have several players BL would like, so I’m sure there’s multiple stands to this. The Wirtz deal will be independent, but arguably any of Kelleher, Elliott, Quansah and Gomez, perhaps one or two others, might be open to a move.
As I think about possible centre back outgoing, I’m half wondering if Hincapie might come into focus for us? It would be three big players for BL to lose, but they would get a lot of money to refresh their side, and maybe a player or two to help them.
It’s all moving along swimmingly. Slot is prepared. He’s a thorough football man with a clear vision. He’s a great communicator. And he has been a great asset in helping to turn Wirtz in our direction. Can’t wait to see how it all pans out this summer.
First things first. Palace, three points, party, trophy. It’s a great moment we’re in with everything flying high.
Everything is signed between Liverpool and Jeremie Frimpong but a delay in the announcement may be because the club plan to announce him alongside Florian Wirtz. [
]
Elliot in particular is likely to move somewhere if we sign Wirtz as he’s going g to struggle even more for minutes then.
My missus has been sending me a shitload of YouTube comps and clips of the boyo over the last days, and all I could think was 'Lol wtf is defending considered unhöflich or whatever in the Bundesliga? Why does Bundesliga even exist?'.
I’m excited about it, though, if it comes off. The few times I’ve watched him properly, against proper opposition, he’s looked a beautiful menace.
LFC buying his ‘Bestie’ might have been the smartest move they have made to date, regarding attracting, and hopefully securing this guy in our direction.
To shunt The Cheaters and Bayern aside in these negotiations, is a joy to watch. With the financial backing we have when needed, the adoring and passionate fanbase we have that include for brilliant songwriters and mural artists… winning the PL at a canter… what is not to like about LFC at the moment :0)
