Maccas' comments this afternoon about his contract are great insight.

"There was a chance, like everybody knows.
I received the news that the club was not in a position to renew my contract, which of course makes me very sad.
I think everyone can see I give my 100% for this club, every single day in training, I have good games, bad games. I always give my best.
I see Dominik and Rayan renewing their contracts, which makes me happy.

Same time it makes me sad I didn't get mine.
There is still time, I will give my 100% until my last day. We will see what happens. "

I'm sure he's "sad" to not get his massively inflated wages.
The players are clearly looking at others' exuberant wages and all wanting in on it. Their performances don't warrant what most of them are on.
I'd happily seek two midfielders as I said this summer to replace Macca and Grav next summer.

I don’t remember you ever saying you wanted us to sign a new midfielder.

I know many people will disagree with me, as I have seen it posted all over social media, but I do believe that Macca is genuinely trying. I just don't think he can physically do what he needs to do anymore. The guy puts in effort, though, and has that nasty side I think a few of our players lack (Not the diving, hate that, but he will get stuck in and trip people if he fears the counter could hurt us).



Good player, but there is room to improve. He is being asked to do the majority of the defensive work now, despite being a more offensive player. So appreciate his willingness to adapt for the team, as he did under Klopp at times, also. However, Camara or a different defensive midfield profile would be better suited to the requirements Iraola has set.

Nothing warrants what they're on. Doesn't matter if they won every trophy possible. Footballers in general get paid far too much but there's no point whinging about what you can't change.

I think it's unfair to make out like Macca is only in it for the money.

He came in for a low fee and has been on relatively low wages since. Despite his tendency to go missing at times and overexaggerate fouls, he's been a good servant to the club. He comes across as quite a grounded, level-headed and hard-working bloke to me.

Turkish Airlines to be the front sponsor of the Liverpool kits from June 2027.

Hearing the all red full membership are looking to include a Turkish hairline option for anyone looking for an upgrade.

08 Sep 2026 12:09:51
I knew being a member would eventually pay off.

New shirt sponsorship from next season. Turkish Airlines, 60m per season.

08 Sep 2026 09:36:21
Seems we have a new shirt sponsorship deal with Turkish Airlines for £300m over 5 years.

Macca will be off on a free flight every year now to top up his hair.

The scoreboard found its shape after nine minutes. The performance, perhaps, remained a little more unsettled.

There was something beautifully simple about the opening spell. Gakpo saw Isak's movement before the space had fully opened and played the pass while the picture was still alive. Twice Liverpool found that clarity. Twice Isak finished with the economy of a striker who seems to need only the briefest invitation.

From there, the game became harder to read.

The right side seemed to breathe in and out with each phase. Araujo would settle alongside the centre backs, Muñoz would sink deeper into something closer to a wing back, and at times the space between them felt less rehearsed than discovered in the moment.

Muñoz remains an intriguing watch. There is real electricity in the way he carries the ball, but sometimes the run seems to begin before the destination has revealed itself. He can burst into narrowing channels, throw himself into physical contests, then look surprised when the whistle follows. It feels less like uncertainty and more like the impatience of a young player trying to show everything he has in every action.

Szoboszlai leaves me with a different thought. I am not sure the question is whether he sees the pass, but whether he trusts the first picture he sees. There were moments, particularly around Isak, when the window seemed open for only a second. Another glance, another beat, and the game had already moved on.

Perhaps that is where Liverpool are just now.

There are passages when everything suddenly aligns and the game looks almost effortless. Then there are longer spells where the midfield can still be travelled through, the rotations are still learning one another, and the next action arrives just a fraction after the moment that first invited it.

Two goals. A clean sheet. Three points.

Enough to show that something is beginning to take shape.

Not quite enough, perhaps, to say it has found its rhythm.

We don't need AI slop here, mate.

Andoni Iraola will take any win whatsoever, whether it's 10-nil or one-nil, there is nothing better than a win in a game of football, no matter how it's achieved.

LFC have won a game of football that no one ever in this country will ever equal, they won a European two-legged tie on the toss of a coin, but it was still a win in the record books.



If you want to win every game 10-nil, you should go to watch Roy of the Rovers who of course plays for Melchester Rovers, and take a coin with you, you may need it one match day?

That's a big call, hekoparmy, compliments.

Wirtz and Szoboszlai both need to up their game. One thing I hate the most is people losing possession of the ball; between the 2 of them they've already lost the ball 103 times.

{Ed001's Note - if you want possession, you need Slot back. If you want players trying to create and take risks, then they are going to lose it.}

Florian Wirtz has played 36 total PL apps for LFC.

33 PL games last season, six as a sub. 5 goals, 3 assists.

36 PL apps, 5 goals, 4 assists; that is circa a goal every 7 games and an assist every 9 games. This season so far, after 3 PL games, zero goals, one assist.

07 Sep 2026 20:19:29
Pep Guardiola really ruined football, didn’t he? People now think possession is the most important stat.

08 Sep 2026 12:20:21
If Wirtz came in at £40M would the hysterical Nellies on here be ripping in to him as much as they do?
The money is none of our business and shouldn't affect our expectation or be the player's burden.
I'm as excited today about having Wirtz in the team as the day he signed. We've got him, they don't.

Carvajal is in talks with LFC for a one year loan deal, per Anfield Agenda ROI website.Right Backs can also play Left Back as well (joey jones, neal, nicol).Could be to wind trent up also.

Could be Maureens last Real Madrid transfer after losing one nil to royal betis, and a toy "Parrot" scoring the only goal, in his post match conference Maureen was incessantly mumbling the following sentences when being asked reporters questions?

I used to be a Parrot, but I'm alright now!
I used to be a Parrot, but I'm alright now!
I used to be a Parrot, but I'm alright now!
I used to be a Parrot, but I'm alright now!
I used to be a Parrot, but I'm alright now!
I used to be a Parrot, but I'm alright now!

Poor old Maureen, could not have happened to a nicer fella? Maureen also wears a beak-ini on the Madrid beaches, but not for long?

It's not a loan, Bond, as he has been released on a free. So he would no doubt be looking for a contract somewhere.

But don't let the facts get in the way of a good opportunity for a skit, lol!

07 Sep 2026 19:42:59
I'm only the "Parrot" Zed, not the originator.

Camara has won the most tackles (11) in French Ligue 1 so far after 3 games, and has also won the most duels (33) in Ligue 1 so far.

Chelsea stole Caicedo and Lavia from Jurgen, Andoni to reverse that!

Barcola has set the fastest Premier League speed this season at 22.3 mph after only circa 30 minutes playing time.

07 Sep 2026 20:15:34
What does any of that have to do with Carvajal, 007?

08 Sep 2026 14:27:11
Mish Moneypenny holding out again, James? Grab another martini, friend!

07 Sep 2026 14:29:55
Atletico on Wednesday. Is it the perfect game to give Barcola his first start? Barcola off the left, Isak through the middle, Gakpo off the right. Would love to see it in action - Munoz back Saturday to wreak havoc over Fulham.

07 Sep 2026 15:04:03
Aurajo needs to stay at RB. Wirtz to start as he plays well in the CL and he needs a bit of confidence. He will come good, I’m certain.

07 Sep 2026 17:06:04
The Ipswich game was Barcola’s first minutes since the World Cup, he shouldn’t start until the Fulham game at the earliest.

06 Sep 2026 20:53:43
Ok, so I'm going to give Isak a boot every week haha
