Reports from sly Germany saying we've agreed a 3 year deal in principle with Amorim? No idea if there's any truth behind it!
Didn't the same Sky Germany say Alonso was going to Bayern?
1.) 09 Apr 2024 11:11:19
Portuguese media saying the same thing, and being repeated by others. If it's true then Edwards and Hughes have taken the right decision in taking action well before the summer starts.
2.) 09 Apr 2024 13:09:52
Don't think Hughes will have been involved, he still works for Bournemouth.
3.) 09 Apr 2024 13:35:02
Thereeps, I could be wrong but I think it was said, although Richard Hughes officially starts on the 1st June. He was given permission by Bournemouth to assist with the search of a new manager prior to officially starting in his SD role with us. If true it would be him and Edwards leading negotiations with Amorim.
4.) 09 Apr 2024 19:50:39
Amorim said in his presser before the Benfica game at the weekend when he was asked if he would stay at Sporting next season, that he could not guarantee that he would. That is the first time he has ever indicated such a thing thru out this saga so that was what was most telling. I think he is on his way here.
5.) 10 Apr 2024 23:32:48
If we’ve landed Amorim as manager, fair do’s to FSG, we’ve got the best out there who we can get. Given that Alonso said no, we’ve got the next best talent.

Hi Eds,
Hope you're all doing well?
I wondered if there was any updates on the fitness of the following and if there's any idea on when we can expect them back?
Alisson
Trent
Jones
Jota
Look forward to your feedback when you get a spare minute.
Thanks in advance! :-)
{Ed001's Note - Alisson is likely to be a couple of weeks away.
Trent and Jota should be back the week before.
Jones should be back now.}
1.) 27 Mar 2024 13:15:53
Great stuff, thank you for the prompt response! :-)
{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}
2.) 27 Mar 2024 14:42:15
Nice one, Ed. Thanks.

Looks like Hendo has agreed to join Gerrard!
1.) 13 Jul 2023 14:21:47
Romano reporting he has agreed terms. Over to Liverpool now to decide.
Looks like it’s not Hendo being forced out but him choosing to leave.
2.) 13 Jul 2023 14:23:33
I assume he is going to have to change his rainbow boot laces and social media posts where he preached about human rights abuse in the Middle East. Apparently morals come with a clear price tag and that price has been met!
3.) 13 Jul 2023 14:50:33
It’s Hendo’s decision. Football is his career choice…. it’s business.
If he goes then he will leave us with some great memories.
I really don’t think it’s appropriate to try to take a moral high ground on this.
I buy petrol some of which no doubt comes from Saudi.
4.) 13 Jul 2023 14:52:09
I wonder how these players will feel when, like those American tourists, the team bus passes an area where people are being beheaded.
{Ed025's Note - probably grab the heads and try to flog them Pegleg..
5.) 13 Jul 2023 15:18:34
If Hendo has crossed the Rubicon by accepting Saudi money, then he already did so by joining the EPL with all its American private equity money.
Come on people, give it a rest. The convenient line drawing is giving me Marty Feldman eyes.
6.) 13 Jul 2023 15:21:56
Christ there's some high horses on parade today. Good luck to the lad, he's been a good player for this club and an even better captain.
7.) 13 Jul 2023 15:22:19
Its pretty sad to see so many players sign up for the “project” that is the Saudi Arabian league. Milenkovic savic being the latest player to leave for the middle east at his ‘peak’.
I can't say I agree when fans say”oh he’s entitled to one last pay day” yeah, hundreds of thousands of pounds a week to play in Europe must be such a hinderance to a happy life.
8.) 13 Jul 2023 15:30:23
Before we start bashing him we have no idea what he will do with that money. He might set up charities on the back of this or donate to causes he believes in.
Hendo seems a principled chap and whilst it looks like he is selling out he might just do a lot of good with the money the Saudis are throwing at him.
He is the beat captain I have witnessed at Liverpool (not player, before I'm told stevie was better) and I can't fault him for wanting to set his kids and their kids up for life.
9.) 13 Jul 2023 15:05:09
Ed0025 anymore of these offensive comments and you’ll have snowflakes outside your house in July which would be a first for Liverpool and climate change.
{Ed025's Note - I must admit I’m not very woke JK, I’m one of them dinosaurs who tell it like it is mate, a lot disagree with me and that’s fine but don’t ask me to change because I have morals and a conscience, I happen to like who I am..
10.) 13 Jul 2023 15:35:22
Been a great player and captain for us, if that's his decision then I wish him well
Mixed feelings if he goes, on the one hand his body cannot compete like he did a couple of years ago but he very much still has much left to offer Liverpool, particularly as a captain
Though the money he will receive for this means he will never have to worry about money for the rest of his life so i wish him luck.
11.) 13 Jul 2023 15:44:59
Let’s hope so Wyred! A lot of people are rightly pointing out that’s it’s his decision and his right to earn millions more money in Saudi and this is all true, others argue that as a society we are all complicit in endorsing such states through our actions such as buying fuel from these countries or being employed by companies funded by these states again all true However, not all working class people can afford to oppose such regimes or even have a viable alternative. My only issue with his potential decision is his very public statements about human rights issues in the Middle East, his public solidarity with the LGBTQ community only to then up and move to the very states which you apparently oppose. Perhaps this shows why footballers should stick to football and remain silent on societal issues as he risks looking like a bell end! For the record I still see Jordan as a fantastic captain, a great servant to the club and a Liverpool legend!
12.) 13 Jul 2023 15:45:55
If that is his wish then by all means, we should let him go, no doubt. We shall see how things play out in the TW with him potentially going. The money involved in terms of wages? The economic reality is what it is.
As for the whole LGBT stuff and the organisation Hendo has been working with to foster LGBT rights and the backlash that will come should he leave, that's his cross to bear. Again, it is what it is.
13.) 13 Jul 2023 15:50:57
It's not high horses AAR91, it's Burj Khalifa height and level of hypocrisy. First, people didn't want Saudi money coming into British football. That's fine. I respect those who espouse human rights and ideals, it's a commendable thing to do; (while we'll all forget about how Saudi oil fulfills western hunger for energy consumption now, and the roughly 200-300 years of global imperialism where disregard for human rights were the rule and not the exception) . Now the Saudis want to build their own League with their own money, in their own country and territory, and even that is not acceptable; people are passing judgement as if they have a rightful say in the matter. They don't. ?
I have posted earlier, that I would not begrudge Hendo a final big contract payday. It's well deserved in my opinion, after what he has done for the club. And his choice to make.
14.) 13 Jul 2023 15:52:56
He’s a massive loss not happy about this transfer until I know who is going be coming in to replace him. Any ideas?
{Ed002's Note - RTP.}
15.) 13 Jul 2023 15:58:58
Apparently we’d accept £10m for Henderson.
16.) 13 Jul 2023 16:03:30
I have no issue with a player who takes Saudi money. I know I would in their situation. But I am also a guy who is laid-back and doesn't tell others what they should believe.
Henderson has presented himself as a holier-than-thou figure for a number of years now. He has been very vocal on LGBT issues, no doubt in part because it's good for the brand image. But now he is willing to take the money from a place where LGBT rights are completely non-existent.
It just goes to show, when a footballer is preaching about the latest social justice cause, take it with a pinch of salt. They are only following the American sports model where advocacy is good for the brand. They aren't better than you like they pretend to be.
17.) 13 Jul 2023 16:06:36
Genuine question.
What were people’s opinions when Ronaldo chose to move to Saudi last year?
I’d be very surprised if they are what opinions seem to be now with if Hendo were to move and Bobby and Stevie already have.
Obviously people can say they wished Ronaldo all the best and he deserved a final pay day to look after his children and his children’s children.
I can also remember lots of posters boycotting watching the Qatar World Cup due to humanity reasons.
I’m sure people will deny they felt this way but I believe integrity tells you a lot about a person.
When Ronaldo left I threw pelters at him.
18.) 13 Jul 2023 16:14:16
Joyce reports LFC want 20M for Hendo.
19.) 13 Jul 2023 16:43:46
Guardian suggests LFC want £10m.
If he goes, then good luck to him, he’s been a fantastic captain and never ever let us down. A leader on and off the pitch and we should appreciate the trophies he’s helped bring to Anfield.
As for his support for LGBTQ+ rights and other causes, there’s no reason why he can’t keep that up but he will have to adapt to circumstances. Doesn’t mean he’ll just give up on it all. He might be a footballer but he’s not thick. He’ll do what he can and after the stint in SA he’ll be in a great position to do more.
Thanks Hendo for wearing that shirt with pride. YNWA.
20.) 13 Jul 2023 17:05:13
I reckon there in fact should be law enacted that says if any sporting individual stands on 5 different makeshift platforms and holds up 5 different trophies for the same team then he MUST be paid 700k a week for as long as his spindly legs can keep him up.
21.) 13 Jul 2023 18:42:55
I don’t look to footballers for a moral compass, because I have a brain.
Henderson going to SA or not is not going to impact SA politics one iota.
So his career choice is a matter of supreme indifference to me.
22.) 13 Jul 2023 19:03:18
If Henderson wants to go, good riddance mate.
{Ed025's Note - Jordan Iscariat..
23.) 13 Jul 2023 19:15:28
I hope you don’t look to politicians for it either Ron.
24.) 13 Jul 2023 19:52:02
Ed25, you replied to polecat as me? I’m living in your head rent free ? it’s a bit blue ? tastes a bit bitter ? but you have the best nudes ?.
{Ed025's Note - sorry mate my brain is not functioning at the moment, yesterday i told people we would finish higher than coventry FFS, i think i need to stop eating blue smarties or something.. :)
25.) 13 Jul 2023 21:13:48
Aslong as you keep being you I’m happy ?.
26.) 13 Jul 2023 21:17:22
I look to politicians to make myself feel good.
I’ll never be as morally bankrupt and dangerously incompetent as the feckless morons voted into and appointed to both Houses of Parliament.
19 Mar 2024 10:54:41
Ron!? Really!?
17 Aug 2023 14:23:43
Crikey you talk a lot of crap!
How about just post when you've got something positive to say!?

LiverpoolFC8.I really hate those un-frozen choc ices!
15 Apr 2024 11:48:33
I feel exactly the same MK and also tend to agree that it does seem to have imploded a bit since the FA Cup game against Utd.
The constant trying to recover from going a goal down couldn't keep happening and something needed to change from both the tactical and psychological side. It would be really nice to be 1-0 or 2-0 up for a change but it seems we're just far too slow starting games and constantly get punished and make life hard for ourselves.
Will keep fingers crossed that we somehow get some results in the final few weeks of the season but I've seen nothing over the last few games to convince me that that will happen!
Personally, I'm just looking forward to next season now to see what the new manager brings and we can start a fresh.
Lets be honest with ourselves. After last season and how far off we were, could we really see ourselves in this position with 6 games to go after completely changing how whole midfield? Probably not.
Let's see what happens and try and enjoy what we can of the remaining games that we have :-)
09 Apr 2024 14:32:33
Nice read that MK. I tend to agree with you and am also quietly confident of a successful transition. let's hope all of us fans (assuming we get him) give him all the support he deserves and we give him to to get his ideas across and keep us going in the right direction!
Fingers Crossed!
27 Mar 2024 13:15:53
Great stuff, thank you for the prompt response! :-)

26 Mar 2024 14:40:44
I would hope that any manager coming in to replace Klopp would be confident enough in their own ability to take us to the next level rather than being compared to the previous manager and being scared to do the job.
As you say, on the pitch we're in a pretty good state. Who wouldn't want to get their hands on our squad and put their own stamp on it!?
20 Mar 2024 12:29:42
Was listening to Keith Hackett this morning on talksport and he said the opposite ?♂️.
