Former players and managers - general discussion

A fair few were taken in by Hicks and Gillet and a fair few vultures were around, I think it was very hard for him and Parry so I hold little animosity . It knocked us for a few years but it ultimately led to FSG coming in and setting us right. With some of the owners around we could have been in a far worse state generally and with no FSG to come in and settle it. This lot talked a lot but had no money, some have a lot of money but corruption usually wipes it overnight.

We could have used Gini the last two seasons but not overly fussed now. Heā€™s been very good for us though.

Heā€™s had his big payday and will get the same amount of salary at Roma etc. But him not getting game time in PSG speaks more about them rather than about Gini.

Good luck to Gini W wherever he lands. Roma would be a good move. He still has plenty to offer as a player. I donā€™t hold any animosity at all. Might have signed a new deal here, but chose to let the contract run down as it looked like Barcelona were in for him. That fell through and then he was scrambling a bit, but PSG came in. He didnā€™t break into the team there and has been spinning his wheels.

I donā€™t want him back here, not because of any hard feelings but because weā€™ve moved on. I think a couple of years in a beautiful Italian city will round out his career, and I expect he will do well there.

Iā€™m not a huge fan of the idea of PSG getting a loan or sale fee for him. The hydrocarbon doping cheaters will hopefully still be on the hook for most of his wages for the rest of his contract.

Agree completely with this. Thiago has really taken his position and We have too many young talents who deserve a chance

When talking about the CL final against RM recently, if playing the Jurgen team formation, was asked to choose the best Liverpool team of players I have witnessed in a red shirt in my lifetimeā€¦
After some deliberation, here are my nominations for the side I would have loved to have put out against Ancelottiā€¦,
Forā€¦
Alisson read Ray Clemence (only just)ā€¦
Trent read Trent
Konate read Mark Lawrenson
VVD read VVD
Robbo read Emlyn Hughes
Fabinho read Graeme Souness
Henderson read Steven Gerard
Thiago read Kenny Dalglish
Diaz read Ian Rush
Mane/Firmino read Kevin Keegan
Mo Salah read Suarezā€¦

Manager:
Klopp read Klopp

As Shankly once mentioned, he wants a Liverpool side so good, they would have to send a team from Mars to play usā€¦!

I hope they both get off. The fuckers shouldnā€™t have been on the pitch.
