Remember my first post last Summer? The friend from Crosby who said Diaz had not renewed his lease.
I ask him for any gossip this Summer. He told me Toney intends to move to Everton if they can agree a fee etc.
He went on say LFC have earmarked a house in Crosby for a "big signing"!? Not set in stone but sharing because it fits the vibe of this message board or at least what it used to be!
Kind regards all YNWA!

Exclusive details | Michael Olise was the secret candidate Liverpool had been negotiating with for weeks. Liverpool had reached a full verbal agreement with Olise and his camp on Tuesday, 26 May. #LFC
⚠️ Absolute priority as a replacement for Mo Salah alongside the pursuit of Yan Diomande.
However, the deal collapsed yesterday, Thursday, for the time being. It remains to be seen whether club-to-club agreements can be reached.
Andoni Iraola approved the Olise deal after personal talks with the 24 y/o Bayern gem (Florian Sweattenberg).
05 Jun 2026 20:36:15
That's almost a carbon copy of the Rio rumour to Bayern. Hmm.
05 Jun 2026 20:46:47
Sherlock would be proud.
05 Jun 2026 18:45:50
Romano - Liverpool stance on Rio Ngumoha, not just today but for months: untouchable. 🔐 Seen as crucial part of the project and no chance for his exit, LFC view is clear. 🏴
05 Jun 2026 18:44:40
With the fairly cryptic posts about Conor Bradley's injury being a lot worse than originally thought last week, is there anyone who can shed a bit of light on what it actually means?
05 Jun 2026 19:55:22
Weren't there some reports at the time that it wasn't just ligaments but something to do with the bone as well? Can't be sure, but think I remember reading that somewhere.
05 Jun 2026 20:25:40
Nothing has changed. Let the poor lad recover.
05 Jun 2026 20:35:11
I read somewhere there was talk of shattered bone in the knee area. I would assume 18 months from the injury before he will be back to anything like full fitness - so it'll be pre-season 27-28, I would imagine, before he's back fighting for a starting spot, if at all.
05 Jun 2026 20:54:04
Connor who? Lol, only joking. But we are going to need someone to come in for right back 100%.
05 Jun 2026 16:54:19
David Ornstein just done an exclusive to say Bayern Munich are after Rio Ngumoha! Hope they don't come near him!
05 Jun 2026 17:18:59
For the right money, they can come as close as they want...
05 Jun 2026 17:20:38
We absolutely should not sell for a whole bunch of reasons.
05 Jun 2026 17:24:07
They can have Gakpo instead.
05 Jun 2026 17:32:06
Will sell for 500m plus Olise and Musiala.
05 Jun 2026 17:40:53
Probably agent trying to up his wages.
05 Jun 2026 17:46:06
He is a great kid, but if they gave us Olise that's good business.
05 Jun 2026 17:48:09
Was just waiting for one of the sheep, who think they're funny, to mention Gakpo.
05 Jun 2026 17:51:22
I'd sell for right money.
05 Jun 2026 18:02:34
No, I wouldn't sell. We've just brought in a manager that works great with young players, and is all about attacking football. Why sell our best young attacking talent? Makes zero sense at all. We will get a profit from Rio at some point. I'm betting Rio starts on the left 1st game next season.
05 Jun 2026 18:02:53
He's not irreplaceable at all. So if they offered say £50 million I'd take it.
05 Jun 2026 18:07:11
If it pays all for Diamonde, bring it on. Rayan is with the Brazil squad, another 19-year-old phenomenon in the making.
When Jamie Car-Rager and John Barnes question Andoni's appointment, you know Liverpool Football Club has got the right man?
Ask any Tranmere Rovers fan about John Barnes' management at their club.
He was sacked after 4 months, and two of them months were pre-season, June, July, and he only won two of his first eleven league fixtures, and he fully backed Slot for another season.
05 Jun 2026 18:08:35
The fact Bayern want him, knowing they wouldn't get him cheap, shows exactly why we should want to keep him. When Olise was at Rio's stage of his development, he'd just come off a season where he'd made 4 appearances for the mighty Reading.
05 Jun 2026 18:26:22
Replacing Olise, who's off to Madrid.
05 Jun 2026 18:29:23
Agreed, Florian, a constant criticism of Slot was the refusal to play youth and now people want the one that looks like breaking through selling. There aren't many 17-year-olds that have had the season he's had, of course he isn't the finished article, but with the right coaching, who knows. I hope we find out whilst he's here.
05 Jun 2026 18:32:36
Wild how willing some of you are to give up our most promising young talent, was not expecting to read those comments after I saw the original post.
05 Jun 2026 18:35:02
Why on earth would people be happy to entertain a deal for one of the brightest sparks in world football, who can be a talisman for us for the next decade and who will need replacing with someone who inevitably would cost more and would have a lower ceiling?
Bonkers.
05 Jun 2026 18:36:30
Hey, let's not storm down on John Barnes. Sure, you may not agree with his views, but one of the greatest to play for us, and did a hell of a lot to change racist attitudes, but was always subject to racist abuse when playing for England.
And struggling with cancer.
05 Jun 2026 18:37:22
Really can't understand people advocating for Rio to be sold. Strange. Hopefully, we can get him signed up to a good long term contract.
05 Jun 2026 18:39:22
Replacing Olise? Is he on a free?
05 Jun 2026 18:50:57
Kid probably just wants to play a bit more, and is scratching his head at how little game time he got vs Gakpo. The brains trust put Gakpo on £250,000 a week so probably felt compelled / contracted to play him as much as they did (3596 mins for Gakpo vs 952 mins for Ngumoha).
Football agent skullduggery most likely. If he gets bigger game time assurance, I'm sure he'll stay. Personally I think he deserves it.
05 Jun 2026 18:52:13
Rio hasn't even reached the ripe old age of 21 and some are advocating for a transfer. We need to give our young ones time to develop. We may have a big star on our hands. We will never know until we give him that chance.
05 Jun 2026 18:59:52
Just why would you sell Rio? Don't get it, absolutely no need.
05 Jun 2026 19:01:58
Because they know full well he'd do reasonably well on a weaker league, and then be able to sell him back to an English team for 10x the price in 6-7 years' time. Loads of European sides are doing it.
Just look at Sancho, Edwards, and now Barca with Gordon.
It's all about milking the Premier League, I think, rather than seeing incredible talent. There's a reason England have won F-all for 60 years.
05 Jun 2026 19:03:12
Monstersouness, what exactly does Barnes' illness or the racist abuse he experienced 30 years ago have to do with his opinions today? Give over the moral posturing, mate.
05 Jun 2026 19:11:10
True No.8. People whinge wanting more kids getting game time. Only thing is, they all have to be Diego Maradona by the time they are 17/18.
05 Jun 2026 19:14:21
If any left winger was to go, it could only be Gakpo. Rio has too much potential, is exciting to watch, and can actually beat a man.
05 Jun 2026 17:47:37
Yawnstein has lost all credibility. Tiresome fool.
05 Jun 2026 20:07:39
Wirtz PR revenge.
05 Jun 2026 20:22:03
No 17yr old in the Prem got more mins than Rio.
Next season, under a manager who likes to develop youth, he'll likely get more.
I don't see where he gets his mins at Bayern.
05 Jun 2026 20:29:51
I really don't believe that Rio is going to become the world beater everyone thinks he is.
Don't get me wrong, he's been alright, and I hope he makes me eat my words, but I don't believe he's the new messiah everyone thinks.
Reminds me of when Jordan Ibe broke through and everyone was raving about how he was going to be huge and he's so much better than Sterling.
Or when Macheda scored a couple of wonder goals for the Mancs and they automatically decided he was the future.
Rio, in my opinion, has done alright, no more no less. He stood out in a toothless side because he seemed like the only player willing to get forward.
He'll probably do alright next season too, but people saying he's one of the world's biggest talents and stuff are way way way over-egging the kid.
05 Jun 2026 20:50:55
Every player has a price, that's the reality of football in the 21st century.
Rio's price will be high.
05 Jun 2026 15:42:05
I've been told that Real Madrid are interested in Diomande. Have any of the ITKs heard anything of this?
05 Jun 2026 17:26:19
Is he available on a free transfer?
05 Jun 2026 17:27:03
He's not leaving on a free, I wouldn't worry about it.
05 Jun 2026 17:40:31
Madrid want Olise.
05 Jun 2026 18:07:39
Real Madrid are probably already starting talks with Diomonde to join on a free at the end of his 5 year contract at Liverpool.
05 Jun 2026 18:24:27
God, I can't stand them coercing players to run their contracts down.
05 Jun 2026 18:35:52
Perez announced he's making a move for Olise. Wouldn't make sense to go for Diomande too. He could be a back up plan, but I'd expect Diomande to have a deal done long before a potential deal for Olise might fall through.
Bobcat, 🤣 bang on the money with that one, mate.
05 Jun 2026 18:54:20
Bayern are saying they won't even accept 200 million for Olise.
05 Jun 2026 19:02:32
I literally can't stand Real Madrid. Hate everything about them.
05 Jun 2026 13:43:37
Even though his legs have gone, Robertson to Spurs on a free hurts.
05 Jun 2026 14:29:12
It does. Desperately. Like seeing your first love out with someone else. :-(
05 Jun 2026 14:41:16
Yeah, I really hoped he would do an about turn with Iraola coming in, but, tbh, he was not going to be first choice, and perhaps that's what he wanted.
05 Jun 2026 14:51:52
Am happy for him that he is going to play, but he is miles away from the player he was and I didn't want to see him tarnish his legacy with us by costing us games.
05 Jun 2026 14:53:05
I thought he'd move to Scotland and play his days out. He obviously doesn't mind the thought of playing against us. But good luck to him.
05 Jun 2026 15:42:06
Guys, stop being silly. Grino is spot on.
Robertson is going to Spurs because he isn't at the required level for Liverpool any longer. Fabulous player though he was, moving to Spurs gives him a deserved opportunity to prolong his PL career at a team in a very different place to us - Tottenham are no rivals.
"Doesn't mind playing against us" - Robertson would much rather be playing for us.
05 Jun 2026 15:51:20
I just really hate Tottenham, so this kills me. I'm sad.
05 Jun 2026 15:56:08
The problem is that this season just gone by, I think he is still better than Kerkez...
Although for the new season, I expect Kerkez to surpass Robbo.
05 Jun 2026 16:05:26
I didn't see much evidence of his legs having gone! He'll make Spurs better, that's guaranteed.
05 Jun 2026 16:12:50
It's funny, everyone seems to laud Alex Ferguson for knowing the right time to move players on, but they don't like it when we do it.
It was the right time for Robertson and Salah to move on.
05 Jun 2026 16:21:22
What's Ferguson got to do with people saddened by a Kop hero moving on?
05 Jun 2026 16:25:02
His legs and speed of thought had both gone or declined. It was evident in quite a few games. He occasionally had better games, but, again, like others have said, that doesn't justify a two-year deal on £150k plus a week. That would be madness.
05 Jun 2026 17:17:25
Not at all. Right time for all parties. Brilliant footballer but that was in the past. Wish him well.
05 Jun 2026 18:24:02
I work with a Spurs fan and he is made up.
05 Jun 2026 18:54:39
Spurs and LFC are on two different levels. Robbo is great signing for a club that just avoided relegation two seasons on the bounce.
05 Jun 2026 19:17:23
Rubbish, he isn’t on the required level. He should have been offered a two year deal. People implying that Kerkez is somehow in a different galaxy to him, when he isn’t. With Tsimikas coming back, it’s weakened us drastically. I can understand that Robbo may have wanted to leave to play more games, but he seemed a tad miffed he wasn’t offered a deal.
05 Jun 2026 19:57:21
Was worth a contract extension, better option than Tsimikas, I'd argue.
05 Jun 2026 13:35:27
Can anyone, or the ITKS Confirm if rumours of spurs & gakpo are true as seen they are interested
05 Jun 2026 14:17:24
Hopefully, Raceylfc. Hopefully.
05 Jun 2026 16:21:45
Robbo has spent 2 seasons on and off playing behind Gakpo, after having Mane in front of him.
He will be in De Zerbi's ear, begging him not to be interested.
05 Jun 2026 16:49:13
Gakpo is better suited to Italy or Spain
Italians are tighter than Lycra though and can't see him attracting interest from Barca or Real Madrid
Maybe Bayern or Dortmund would go for him?
05 Jun 2026 13:43:08
Any ITKs know if PSG offering Zabarnyi was actually true, think if a loan deal was an option that we would think about that, plays on the right and worked with Andoni before. Or is this just because he has played under Andoni that it came out?
Think it brings less pressure on the young lads coming back from injury and coming into the team.
05 Jun 2026 16:49:54
Makes plenty of sense.
