Nyoni at centre back. Stephenson at right back.

Nunez is better than both Wissa and Ramos surely.

Isaac Mabaya, who played in the cup game against Plymouth last season, has gone on loan to Wigan.

The balls on Ngumoha to take the shot when we were 6 v 3. Great composure. edit. found this. Ngumoha v Yokohama: https://www.reddit.com/r/LiverpoolFC/comments/1md5pbo/rio_ngumoha_vs_yokohama_f_marinos/

No Isak. Disappointing.

Why wasn't Endo involved today?

What a through ball from Tsimi. Wrong end but maybe interested clubs won’t notice.

Milan having a field day with our full backs being so high. Our make shift defence and midfield not offering much cover.

Ridiculously exciting that this lad plays for Liverpool. It’s going to be so much fun watching him every week.

Always makes it look like he has time on the ball to pick the right pass. Even in tight spaces. That little pass to Salah was magic.

What a goal.

No Nunez or Diaz must mean they are close to leaving. Nunez played v Stoke.

Good news for you "availability is the best ability" fans. Looks like he's only missed two games for Frankfurt in the last two seasons.

What a ride.

Maybe Konate’s agent leaked the Madrid interest right when Trent left to put pressure on the club to improve the contract offer. Would be great if he stays.

Hugo Boss

Played at the u21 euros. Kept thinking it was James McConnell when the camera cut to him. Big strong lad. Already played a season for Millwall in the Championship and 30+ games for Toulouse in Ligue 1. Decent experience for a young cb.

Oui Monsieur Best in the World He’s lanky Firmino

Aye, there were some quotes from Slot several months into the season where he seemed puzzled that Chiesa still struggled to get through training sessions with the rest of the team. Think he just couldn’t be arsed trying to integrate him into the team when we were flying knowing he’d probably get injured again.

Transfermarkt and wiki both say 22 goals (and 12 assists) in 48. Where do you check for stats? I always use those two but they might not be correct.

Ekitike scored 4 league goals the season before this one where he got 15. Nunez scored 6 the season before he got 26. I assume part of our data analysis is to work out whether that increase is sustainable at a higher level and not just a purple patch. The problem with Nunez was that he didn’t fit the way we played and couldn’t adapt (or we couldn’t adapt to him). So we signed Gakpo in January to do that job as a 9. Hopefully the new stat guys have worked out that Ekitike is a much better fit for Slot’s style of play.

Feels like a lot of money for someone with his record but with the lack of available strikers, I think we’ll pay it if we think he’s got potential to be a starter. He’s raw but has looked decent when I’ve seen him.

Remember after the league cup final when Isak and Van Dijk had a short chat and the lip readers were convinced Isak said something about playing together next season? (I’m paraphrasing. Can’t remember the exact words). Always trust the plane spotters, baggage handlers and lip readers.

And now you’re gonna believe us We’re gonna buy the league!

It really does. As much as you can have someone over a barrel when you’re potentially giving them 130-150m for one football player.
