    I'm having to show some restraint in the amount of Champions gear I purchase.

    Really like the new one, but annoyed that I had to actually do something to get it to show up.

    Mane Message


    Sadio Mane has opened up on what makes Jurgen Klopp a special manager.

    The Liverpool boss guided his side to the Champions League in Madrid with Mane becoming a key attacking component since his switch from Southampton in 2016.

    “He’s a very special manager,” Mane said. “He has a lot of qualities and distinctive characteristics, but what really struck me is that he’s a really, really nice guy outside of football.

    “His human side touched me, and that’s really rare to find someone like that, especially in football.

    “He’s a coach who loves his players, he’s there for them. At the same time, he gives them responsibilities. We, the players, are ready to do anything for him!

    “We give everything on the pitch for him, whether it’s in training or in a game, we give our all. He’s a manager who makes you want to go to war.”

    Been watching clips on Nicholas Pépé and holy shit his dribbling is insane. Would be a great addition to africapool.

    Crazy how much money is involved in the youth.

    We spent almost a million pounds on Conor Masterson in 2014 just to release him in 2019.

    If we sign Pepe or someone in that price range, hard to see us keeping Wilson.

    I'm good with a front 3 of Salah, Firmino, Mane, Origi, Brewster, Shaq, and a new signing.

    Wilson is a good player, just don't know if he is fast and physical enough for a team that wants to be the best side in Europe.

    Wilson will be sold to a prem club hopefully with a buy back clause. Leicester would be a nice fit.

    I would take a number of guys from their squad (Maddison, Ndidi, Chillwell, Benkovic) but I don’t think any of them are realistic

    Probably take the 15-20 mil fee and move on

    We tried to buy Chilwell but got Andy Robertson instead. Remember seeing that City are interested in Chilwell. Maddison is a hell of player, but we don't really play with a 10.

    Their entire midfield is really young and good. Think their midfield is better than Arsenal's and fits better than United's.

    Leicester have money, so buying from them you'd have to pay a bunch. They might not finish top 6 next year, but they will probably push for it.

    Will be interesting what we do next season. Sneaking suspicion we play a whole lot more of 4-2-3-1. Maybe Salah up top, Firmino behind and Pépé right.

    Worries me paying that amount of money for a guy outside the premier league.

    Naby Keita not adjusting to the league may have cost us the title this year.

    Don't know shit about Pepe, other than he is French-Ivorian and apparently plays on the right and is good.

    If a 4-2-3-1 is going to be the formation against the Burnley's of the league. I'd ideally want a left winger so that Mane can go top with Bobby in behind.

    Injuries played a large part in Keita not getting up to speed. Before Barca away he was becoming a key starter again.

    Counterpoint: Fabinho came from (IMO) a lesser league and after a bit adjusted brilliantly.

    If it’s true and Klopp wants him then I trust Klopp.

    Isn’t Bruno more of an attacking mid while Ziyech is more of a winger/forward?


    They’re def both studs, Ziyech was a boss in the UCL, and Bruno look outstanding today in the nations final

    One of my coworkers is a huge Beatles fan and went and saw Paul McCartney when he got close enough to Columbus. He was in Lexington, KY on 6/1.

    She said he was pretty amped about the final, she doesn’t care about soccer so didn’t have many details but knew she was seeing him and hadn’t thought about him being a fan

    Cool story bro

    John Oliver is also a huge fan. He added in a Liverpool thing at the very end of his show theme song last week. It was a pic of Klopp lifting the trophy surrounded by the team and it was titled "Kloppus Toppus".

    Don’t think McCartney is a Liverpool fan. We do have James Bond and the guy from billions though.

    Sounds like we are using the preseason to decide if Harry Wilson will fit in with us. I love giving him the chance and not just selling him.

    Ziyech plays both on the wing and as an AM. I prefer him because of his versatility and significantly lower price.

    I really want a white TAA kit, but am holding off for now in case of a number change.

    Pepe looks amazing(in highlights), and I have already fallen for him. However, I think we will want to bring in a left-footed left winger. Mane already shifted left to accommodate salah because he is an actual god, but I don't really like the idea of Origi as our only cover for LW.
