As I mentioned last week from looking online at a few articles that Salahs reps had been in conversation with Saudi/ Galatasary back in October. Perhaps even back then he was happy to move on.

Think the club would want rid in January now and with Semenyo likely coming in his place will be taken. Same with Konate I'd be starting Gomez or Endo over him just a liability and needs moving on.

Salah won us the title last season with his goals. I’m glad he did the interview. We now know why the team has been underperforming. Edwards needs to get rid of Hughes who is clearly out of his depth at Liverpool and Slot needs to go.

Imo, Slot is an arrogant person and probably has no people skills. The longer this continues the worse it will get. The cat is out if the bag now and something has to happen and if it doesn’t we have big problems ahead.

Can you elaborate on why Hughes needs to go and is out of his depth please? I really don’t understand that point of view so I’m interested in why people say that.

Alonsos Madrid beat convincingly 2 0 tonight to another very average side and at home.
He's not a Liverpool manager. You should have atleast a recent good 5 year period success in management before getting touted for the top jobs. I don't just mean trophies, the football that's played, the type of club as to where you consistently finish etc.

Ex players having 1 good season somewhere and suddenly they're hot property.
Enrique is the dream I'm sure for the club in the summer or naggelsman.

Alonso had 2 very good seasons and 1 great season at Leverkusen. His great season was a season that has never been achieved before.

He took over in Oct 2022 when they were languishing at the bottom and finished 6th getting into Europe.

He then won the league and the cup the next season losing only 1 game all season in the Europa League final.

He then finished 2nd in his 3rd season at Leverkusen to Bayern.

So you could say that this season with Madrid is the exception as he’s trying to get the egos to bend to his will. If they would listen to him it’s likely they would be all the better for it.

What type of insanity is it to put up those requirements for a future manager and then wish for Nagelsmann.

I personally think Carra is probably right with what’s going on. I feel Salah is going in January regardless. He has burnt his bridges and letting the fans know effectively he’s being forced out, at the same time I think Slot is going, it won’t look good if a director chooses player power over manager power. Salah will be sold, slot will then be replaced based on all the journos claiming “results will decide how long slot stays” we all know results are not improving and won’t, Salah has brought attention onto himself, he’s taken the heat off Slot and let the execs look strong by how they back the manager etc.

I do think both are going though, all this ITK BS will soon prove who actually is ITK, crazy to think there was Macca / Carra ED1 and ED2, poor ED2 passes and 2500 ITK accounts appear 99% of which ED2 would of called out the BS on.

07 Dec 2025 23:12:28
100% agree, at least now we will be able to at least filter some of the fake ITKs.

I can’t wait for Salah to go. I love the guy but we all knew he wasn’t going to give up his ‘main man’ title without a fight.

As soon as we signed Isak and Wirtz, Salah had been replaced and he was never going to take that well.

It’s time for him to go so these new players can put their own stamp on this team and take us forward without being in the shadow of an ageing Salah.

07 Dec 2025 23:29:35
Crazy to think we may have already witnessed the last game Mo Salah played for Liverpool.

At the very least the "itk" accounts share information that generates discussions. This is a rumours site after all. Maybe you'd prefer it if they stop posting too especially since all they get are snide remarks from posters.

07 Dec 2025 23:35:58
Mo Salah has to go first then Slot when things die down, timing is very bad, Mo should have kept this indoors,
I feel for the club as its getting worse,
We haven't much choice other than to play the hapless Konate,
So other than VVD, the whole defence is a joke, we have no proper full backs and Konate is an accident waiting to happen,
So its no wonder that we are leaking goals,
Like leaking 3 goals most games.

As a self confessed IKFA I'm hope you meddlin' kids expose me to be a fake.

07 Dec 2025 22:11:12
Well if you want to know how the club feels I would suggest reading the article earlier today from Paul Joyce. It's as clinical a hit piece as any finish Mo has done before.

. "what he hopes to achieve from a remarkable act of betrayal. "

. "consider that in light of Salah's latest brattish behaviour and, really, who is the problem here? "

Mo may well have been speaking the truth, in part, but this has turned into a spectacular own goal for him. I would say it's almost certain he won't come back from the AFCON and we may well have seen him play his last game in a Liverpool shirt - especially if the club make an example out of him. That is a desperately sad way for one of club legends to bow out.

What is doubly disappointing is that this appears to have given Slot more support when actually he should be under more pressure than ever before given his continued shortcomings.

 2


07 Dec 2025 23:26:49
Salah should’ve been giving Slot more support if he gave a toss about the club. He’s a senior player and the young players will follow him so for him to come out saying this now we can only assume it’s been bubbling behind the scenes for a while.

At a time when the senior players should be pulling everyone together he has caused a gaping rift and has been a shocking role model for the new players and young players alike.

The sooner he’s gone the better.

I never thought I’d be saying that sentence about Mo Salah I’ve literally worshipped the guy for 8 years but the club always comes first and that’s obviously not the case for him.

07 Dec 2025 23:38:46
I don't think that Mo Salah will play again for LFC,
He had scored a huge own goal.

Xabi Alonso just lost at home to Celta Vigo.

Fans are furious and booing the team off at full time.
👀👀👀👀👀.

Maybe Xabi is our interim 😁.

Hello all, been reading site since way back in the macca/ Ken Aguero days but first time poster mainly due to time difference. Salahs done a number on us here as I actually thought I could see slight inprovements in the team the last few games and was hopeful we could limp thru till xmas then get sone additions for the defense.

Now Im not so sure what could happen but we need a result at Inter. Just remember guys we are still only 3 points off too 4.

07 Dec 2025 22:17:01
Top 4 wasn’t the target tho, it’s a sad indictment of how bad we’ve been that top 4 is our goal in December.

 1


07 Dec 2025 23:10:41
The arsenal trophy has become our target sad times.

 0


07 Dec 2025 23:31:48
It is Irish. We should be challenging for the title with the squad that we have. But as it stands, I think top 4 is the best that we can hope for. We have imploded badly and wd don't look like recovering at all.

The best way to deal with this messey situation is to sack Slot and move Salah on in January.

 10


07 Dec 2025 21:00:56
I think Salah's comments have made it a sure thing Slot is in till Salah leaves. Doesn't look good to have a player moan about playing time and then sack the manager, as much as it's needed.

I think I’ve read nearly every post on these forums since about 9.00 this morning and just about exhausted my Mrs’s patience with me!

I thought we were in a right mess last night but right now tonight I actually think we’re close to
Pressing the self destruct button on a scale not even the mad days of Chelsea can compete with .

Given The rights or wrongs of Mo’s outbursts aside ( yes he was wrong to air in public) people are forgetting that there isn’t and hasn’t been any clear leadership within this club for a long time and I don’t necessarily mean on the playing side - the main execs and directors thinking it was ok for Arne to go off clubbing it around Europe when the title was won to letting players go right of the boil when 90+ points should of been our objective and keep winning momentum and mentality is a dereliction of their jobs / roles!

I get the pre season impetus was affected by Dioga’s tragic passing but I would of liked the players to have used that as a massive spur to go on and create another trophy season and a tribute to his legacy - He was the sort of pro who wouldn’t of put up with these rubbishy antics that’s for bloody sure!

And now after the utter fiascos of embarrassing defeats to Forrest and PSV, played off the park by Sunderland ( who City toyed with yesterday ) and the capitulation last night by seasoned pros against a knackerd Leeds team because Slott &
His staff haven’t instilled anything like the mental and physical toughness needed to compete at this level all we hear from the big Chiefs is that they are still giving Slott their backing!

What then within the next 3 games - Inter, Brighton and Spurs will make the board think perhaps they won’t give Arne their full backing because I’ve a fear this is going to drag on a bit longer than we think and if a couple of other “big” names become collateral damage then I reckon the board and Arne are ready to risk it to
Implement Slotts preferred playing style

Just my take lads - goodnight!

No discipline at the club. slot got no self discipline how can he instil it into the players?

07 Dec 2025 21:03:05
Not sure what his playing style is BR.

Thanks for editing a couple of words Ed!

07 Dec 2025 19:27:11
Just watched the Fulham v Palace game and thought, what a man Marc Guehi must be.
Salah and some of the others should take a good look at this man, his performances and attitude.
I for one would love to have him at our club!

 12


07 Dec 2025 19:51:22
I watched the game too Molby and I thought he had a poor game to be honest. Was diving in when he didn’t need to and caught out of position a fair few times.

The thing is with Palace they have so many men back he gets bailed out.

 4


07 Dec 2025 19:52:05
He's a great player and a fantastic person aswell. Shame we didn't get him in the summer but must do in January.

 3


07 Dec 2025 20:25:25
I was talking more about his professionalism and character to be honest but would take him over our centre backs straight away. They are regressing by the game.

 5


07 Dec 2025 22:11:20
Big difference between Salah n Guehi, one is a international superstar who has won, champs leagues, premierships and countless other trophies, he also played at a much higher level, plus to question his professionism n attitude is way off the mark . he gave a dodgy interview so now he's classed as undeserving of us.

 1


07 Dec 2025 23:38:42
I don’t think anyone is saying Salah is undeserving of us Strom he’s been an absolute legend and will hopefully always be remembered fondly. Hopefully my kids will tell their kids about going to Anfield and seeing Mo Salah in the flesh like I tell them about King Kenny, Barnes and Rush.

The fact is though it’s time for Salah to go. He’s not as good as he once was and he has shown he’s unwilling to fade into the background. We have invested heavily in his succession and whilst he’s still at the club their growth is being stunted.

This team belongs to the likes of Szob, Wirtz, Isak, Ekitike now and they need to all take the team forward and make it their own. I’d have loved Salah to be part of that and actually help the transition by accepting his limitations and supporting the new generation but he’s shown he is unwilling to do that so he has to go. End of story.

Ed1 what’s the reason g for Salah being muscled out? He just signed a new contract and has been our best player for a number of years seems odd.

 2


https://liverpool-rumours.co.uk/uploads/thumb_Ed001.png avatar{Ed001's Note - Slot doesn't want him, he doesn't fit the new set up or with the new signings and his sale would raise funds.}

 5


07 Dec 2025 19:37:20
Thanks ed1 still seems weird if Slot is moving on that we sell our POTY and golden boot winner who still has plenty to offer!

 3


07 Dec 2025 20:02:09
Slots going nowhere for now.

 2


07 Dec 2025 20:19:02
Would Van Dijk also be in danger given his performances, age and wages being paid to him?

 1


07 Dec 2025 20:26:31
Slot was brought in to oversee a transition / overhaul the squad. It’s a massive job that will need to see legends like Salah, VVD, Ali, Robbo all move on eventually. There’s going to be bumps in the road.

 2


07 Dec 2025 20:30:01
We will see.

 0


07 Dec 2025 19:35:36
You think Van Dijk is next on the line Ed? He is our second highest earner after all and his performance hasn't been that good either.

 1


https://liverpool-rumours.co.uk/uploads/thumb_Ed001.png avatar{Ed001's Note - it would make sense, but the issues within the squad are partly about Slot favouring Dutch players, so he will probably stay a bit longer.}

 2


07 Dec 2025 20:02:27
Not a dig Ed,
Just because you mentioned it.
Do you know what the new set up is? Or what slot wants it to be?
Right now I see no sort of system and a team of individuals.
Interested to hear your opinion and inside info.

 1


https://liverpool-rumours.co.uk/uploads/thumb_Ed001.png avatar{Ed001's Note - Slot envisaged a season where we mostly faced low blocks, so he wanted the team set up to smother them and keep them hemmed in with players all over them. A creative player, which turned out to be Wirtz, was to provide the guile to break through, while Isak was to be the fox in the box, so to speak. The idea was to hold onto possession, as the opposition can't score when they don't have the ball. Except they can, as they can force errors or press and win the ball in dangerous areas when your team is focused so heavily on holding onto the ball.}

07 Dec 2025 19:31:30
Carra is right. Slot is dead man walking. I don’t know what sources you have to make that statement, Florian, or whether it’s your go at wish fulfilment, but what Carra is saying about a meeting and a change at the top is backed up by my contacts whom I worked with, including two former Liverpool captains.

Carra is the only person on here, aside from Ed 001, worth listening to.

07 Dec 2025 20:48:11
And here comes yet another ITK.

07 Dec 2025 20:06:49
I even helped to get Stan his movie role so pipe down, fan girl.

07 Dec 2025 20:14:34
It is good to have a few ITKs than a crowd of mouth flappers. There’s going to to be some people who know a lot more than us mate.

Eds and fellow Reds. I’m struggling to understand most of this season and for a while but last night’s outburst from Salah has compounded it. Salah was bang out of order whatever the circumstances. Always deal with it in house. The Liverpool way and it should be the way whatever you do and wherever you work. Everyone is hearing things and many different things and everyone has an opinion. Ed001, you posted that the club want him out. I hope I got that right. I don’t know how it works business-wise but if this is the case it’s looking like it’s being badly done. Again, the club comes first. Not any particular employee although orders always come from above.

I can’t get my head the drop off since winning the title. A fair few players had to be replaced and for different reasons but we bought some brilliant players. It takes time to settle in and I thought at the time it may be too many but managed right it should be ok. Last season we didn’t need a DM because Grav was so good. Now there’s talk that we can’t compete because we don’t have one. Last season Slot was rightly lauded for in game tactical and player changes. Now he gets it all wrong. The change in coaches will doubtless change things. Whatever is going on it’s a mess and no doubt a tangled web.
Let’s hope whatever is going on is sorted and soon. I never saw this coming.
