Mo Salah and Darwin nunez have been modelling the new training kits and home kit for Liverpool which you'd expect pictures of at the club store and stadium which would indicate both are staying, no sign of luis Diaz so maybe he's the one moving on?

I wouldn't mind him going if we replace him. He tries hard and works hard but he lacks the bits that really matter for his position.
Salah is Salah and next season is the crunch one for Nunez.
Of the other two, I like Jota as a cover player but he needs to be there most of all and I'm not sure about Gakpo yet. He underwhelms me but he probably deserves a chance under the new manager.
But they all for sale if the money is right š.

The only similarities are their cheating behaviors.
Also, nothing guaranteed just yet Lance. Unless you know something that we don't.

Lance Armstrong a. k. a Doper in Chief or DIC is just calling things as he sees them. Ironically, the Abu Dhabi Group that bought City in 2008 was also named DIC. Ironic, indeed.

Haven't posted on here for yonks
even though I check the rumours, banter and sightings twice a day, BRILLIANT
Absolutely worship klopp, obviously and so sad to see him go
WHAT A BRILLIANT HUMAN BEING and the only one we could ever compare to the great bill Shankly
Although the jurgen said to me yeno is a great song, even if we did get told off for singing it, i feel we should pay him the utmost? respect and acolade and sing jurgen jurgen jurgen jurgen to the tune of amazing grace as we do with Shankly
Imagine the last home game and four ends of the ground all singing this and shedding tears of course, what an emotional day that will be
Just a thought.

The only one to compare to shanks, what about Paisley and Kenny?

Kenny's selfless leadership in the wake of Hillsborough puts him right up there for me, regardless of the football. Ultimately, it appeared to break him in the end, such a shame. Glad he is rightly still adored by the club and the city.
My first girlfriend used to babysit Kenny's kids and so I met him a couple of times. Scared the crap out of me when he walked in and I'm knecking a young Sharon on his couch.

Shanks
Paisley
Kenny

Not sure if itās been asked already. Looking for opinions on this season? Iām Torn between the Feeling itās been an absolute anticlimax or itās been a decent season with a trophy and coming 3rd in the league is a true representation of where weāre at as a squad. Or has klopp set such high standards that 3rd and a trophy leaves a feeling of under achieving?! Heads a mess!

Big anticlimax.

All of the above.

17 May 2024 18:22:35
My feeling is that it's slightly disappointing at the most, but hardly an absolute anticlimax. We were still in it with 5-6 games remaining, but I think we just happened to have our anual dip in form at the wrong time. After last year's performance and the fact that we kept chalking up the points while playing very well at times and very poorly at other times this season, I will admit I had hopes that we could cross the line first. But fine it didn't happen and that's football. After all, we still won a Cup (the Mickey Mouse one as some call it on here) and Klopp righted the ship from what was definitely a disastrous year last year. And he's leaving behind a rejuvenated squad with plenty of youngsters eager to prove themselves, so I have hope under the new manager.

The Europa Cup was there for us to win. Getting turned over by Atlanta was sickening but what can you doš¤·āāļø. It hasnāt been a bad season but wasnāt great either.

17 May 2024 22:23:59
Overall Arsenal and City have been better than us
Yes i am disappointed we had a opportunity to win more in Klopps final season however we are giving our new manager Champions league football and a solid foundation.

This is the type of season everyone predicted we could have based on the rebuild so we have essentially, met expectations, IMO. Could we have done better? Obviously yes BUT at the end of the day, many of us did not think we could challenge for the title let alone win it going in and based on the way the season played out, we were right. On to a new era set to begin with Arne Slot next season.

Missed opportunity and I donāt think weāve played well as a team.
Bradley was an exciting high point and Danns and Koumas were great in their cameos.

A poor season. Underperformed.

I am a glass half full guyā¦. I think it has been a good season. The biggest disappointment for me was us not making Europa league final, we (alongside leverkusen) were the best team and lost our heads in that first Atalanta game.
I think to win the league with all the changes to the team, injuries and performance/ slump of last season was alway going to be a step too far.
Overall, I would give the season 7/ 10! The league cup final was a memorable game fitting for Klopps final season.
Bradley and quansah really impress me and actually I really enjoy Gomez as the inverted left back as I think it helps to give us control.
Excited to see how Slot approaches his tactics.

LTO I really donāt believe you had us down at the start of the season winning the league. Just donāt believe it with the midfield rebuild we had, the only thing weāve fallen short of is winning europa league we should have won that with the level of players we have.
2
{Ed001's Note - if anyone had said at the start of the season we would finish 3rd, win the League Cup and get so far in the Europa, I think 99% of us would have been delighted. It is just that the way the season transpired, the only reason we fell away from the title and failed to reach the FA Cup and Europa League final is down to our own failings, that makes it feel so bad. What makes it worse is that Klopp is partly to blame for us not still being in for the quadruple, when we are all so thankful for what he has brought to us. But the good thing is that now nothing can take away from Anfield giving Klopp the send off he deserves, as the game is a dead rubber for us. So we can just enjoy a giant farewell party and I have no doubt that we will all be in floods of tears saying goodbye to a true great of the club. One of very few men that truly deserve to be called a legend.}

The rebuild excuse doesnāt wash with me. I would guess City and Arsenal purchased as many first team players last Summer as we did, donāt hear them making the same excuse.

18 May 2024 09:26:12
LTO123, Underperformed, based on what? Did you have us challenging for the title at the start of the season where we didn't even have a DM and many were losing their ship when the Caicedo deal collapsed?
If the answer is no then, you cannot come on here and say we underperformed IF you yourself didn't think we would perform anyway. Sorry, that dog ain't going to hunt. Talk about having it all your own way. Give over, man.

18 May 2024 09:27:04
Yes but we'd been miles away from Ars/ Man City the season before Irish, we've closed that gap considerably. Im with Ed in that if you had offerd me 3rd and a trophy i would have jumped on it. I would have bit your hand off for 4th.
2
18 May 2024 09:45:10
@IR, that's cos both teams are way further ahead in their development than we were going into this season so comparing us with them is already dishonest hece, flawed from the off. I know, shocking.
Also, did you think we could challenge for the title going into the season? If the answer is no (which it is cos nobody on this forum (including you) said so at the time) then, don't start with the "excuses" nonsense cos even YOU believed we would not challenge for the title, let alone win it. Meaning? Even you believed we were in a rebuild at the time and no amount of hindsight or "whatever washes with you, me or whoever" will change that.
Oh and guess what? We will STILL be in a rebuild next season with Slot as well, and both City and Arsenal will STILL be ahead of us in their development going in. I propose you get used to that very quickly, as well. No excuses here, sunny. Just facts.

It's been a good season; maybe even a very good one.
We were behind City and Arsenal in terms of quality last season and we have significantly narrowed that gap. When you consider that we lost three experienced midfielders and had to replace them adds to it, too.
I didn't expect us to challenge for the title this season so it's not been a big disappointment. Don't get me wrong, I was annoyed with those few weeks when everything went to pot but if you look at the season overall it's been a good one.

Totally with Ed001 here.
Start of season to end of season - it was brilliant (i. e. if you'd said at the start of the season, given we finished 5th last time etc) .
However, in the last 3 months there have been massive highs and lows.
On balance a season that is a bare minimum for our club, but it could have been so much more and it was in our hands.
Glass is neither half full or half empty.
The glass is just half.

@Ed01 - absolutely 100% spot on with your comments. Great summary of the season and the status of Klopp in the history of the club. He has the same aura of man management about him that Shanks had - thereās no higher praise.

Thank you Klopp for being honest about VAR. Am not sure he would said that if he was staying next season but who cares. What he said is absolutely correct! I just wish there were more high profile managers or owners that would do the same šš¼šš¼.

"Not being champion by a point is not a great experience but it's an experience. " Klopp at his last press conference. I think that actually sums up his time with us perfectly. It certainly has been one hell of an experience, ups and downs and everything in between.
Thank you Jurgen for everything.

17 May 2024 16:54:29
Klopp's time here simply reflects life in general, IMO. Ups and down, rollercoaster rides taking your lumps and learning from them, winning some and losing some and getting knocked down BUT having the botttle to get back on that horse and go again. A Rocky-like story, if you like and we can all relate to thsuch a story.
The fact that during his tenure, he is ONLY second to Pep (for obvious reasons) in trophies won only shows how great he has been and how all the other PL managers could never hold a candle to him. Danke, Jurgen! .
