He has the look and feel of Nunez about him.
The reason he doesnāt play for us regularly is because he canāt perform regularly hence why he isnāt trusted.
Yep. He hasnāt put it together for us with any consistency, so Iām sure heāll be off in the summer.
There is a nagging suspicion it might click for him somewhere else, and Iād rather he went to another league.

I suppose this being from the Telegraph does add credence to it:
There is confidence in Saudi Arabia that Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah, 32, is open to joining the Saudi Pro League once his deal expires with the Reds this summer. (Telegraph - subscription required)
Not a lot credence attached to Talksport, but Brighton asking for a hundred million is believable given what they got for Caicedo.
Brighton have put Ā£100m price tags on 23-year-old Brazil forward Joao Pedro and 21-year-old Cameroon midfielder Carlos Baleba to fend off interest from Liverpool, Newcastle and Chelsea. (Talksport)
If Harvey wants regular first team football for a PL club, then heās going to have to leave Anfield. Would he get what he wants at Newcastle though?
Newcastle are plotting a surprise move for Liverpoolās 21-year-old English midfielder Harvey Elliott. (Teamtalk)
Problem with anything related to the Saudiās is did they pay for it to be put there.
Evidently some journalism around Man City is obviously biased due to kick backs

Update on Joao Gomes (he was mentioned or linked here?), he has signed a new 5+1 deal with Wolves. No clause involved.

With the ongoing contract situation for some, and others not getting minutes on the pitch throughout the season, could it be slowly dawning on them they may not have a fulfilling future hereā¦ It could be argued that AS has been preventing things from bursting at the seamsā¦ Iām sure he will get us over the finishing line to secure the PL titleā¦ and he would deserve immense credit in doing so, no matter what season he achieves thisā¦
Importantly thoughā¦ the players will have had a season also, to judge whether AS is the type of Boss that they are happy to play for (Ibou, Alisson, Darwin etc)ā¦ Next season with a few signed additions to the squadā¦ makes me wonder whether every present squad member will be re-evaluating their footballing futures

Itās weird to say, but we are a a bit of a crossroads. If we win the league, as expected, it might give a reason for players to go out on a high note, as it will never get better than that.
Some of them will be players we want, like the contract 3, but maybe they will sign off on a high note as title winners?
Some of them will be players we might consider more expendable, for the right fee, including players on the periphery of Slotās squad.
5 is the over/under for me, in terms of new signings for the first team/squad. I expect three, or maybe four signings to go straight into the best eleven, to the degree such a thing exists; and one, maybe two signings to go into the squad and be used more than some of the current fringe guys who Slot doesnāt really use.

Salah looks like he might sign from random press and a new name in the Japanese winger.

Salah wants to stay just when everyone wants him to leave (apparently).
We should sell Doak to Everton as a defender, that would confuse them.

Being the football insider it probably means he is off to Fulham.
Weāve been linked with Kubo before. He was at Real Madrid and apparently RM are entitled to 50% of any profit from his sale.
Heās had an interesting career but maybe has yet to live up to his potential.

Iām sure they get a lot of footage that hits the cutting room floor once a player leaves but here you go. This is a bit flight radar ish - should be a big summer of tracking that too by the looks of the number of links in multiple positions.
Neil A from TAW rates him I believe. He also rates Harvey Barnes mind you. Not sure LFC would be keen to contribute to Madrids coffers.
a little faster than Elliott, but much weaker. I donāt think he could end up at a top team.
Canāt wait for the video to appear on social media of Salah visiting Albert dock for some ācomedyāthing

Liverpool plot damaging Aston Villa raid for crucial star, with Villans forced into a decision
Liverpool are among a number of clubs who are reportedly considering swooping for Aston Villa star Boubacar Kamara, with the Villans forced to offer him a āhugeā pay rise.
Kamara was side-lined through injury for much of last season. As such, while he seemed a useful asset in the season prior, Villa did not know exactly how well heād fit in Unai Emeryās system upon his return.
But after recovering a couple of months into this season, Kamara has shown heās one of the most important players at Villa, able to break up play and distribute the ball very competently, creating a great balance between defence and attack.
Quality displays have caught the eye of Premier League leaders Liverpool, as well as Arsenal and Chelsea, who are all said to be considering Kamara as a midfield option ahead of the summer, having each watched him this season
Heās a good player, but doesnāt seem like the profile of the midfielder weād be interested in. More a defensive hole plugger than a constructive passer who is clever on the ball. More Fernandinho than Zubimendi. For those who have watched more than I have, am I wrong?
