@AnfieldEdition@davidlynchlfc@AnfieldIndex Too much to do? 😂 right so we just persist with a player that is absolutely bang average and offers nothing 99% of the time. Sound 👍🏼
🚨 Yan Diomandé: “Paris Saint-Germain is a team I’ve loved since I was a child. My father supports Paris Saint-Germain, and it’s a team I admire as a football fan”, told L’Equipe.
“It would be a pleasure for me to come and play here with one of the biggest clubs. It’s always a pleasure to come here because, with French being spoken, I think adapting wouldn’t be difficult. But why not?”.
“I don’t think I’m looking ahead to the future or focusing on anything else. As I’ve said, I remain focused on the World Cup. After that, the clubs will sort things out between themselves and we’ll see what happens next”, added to Telefoot.
🚨 EXCL: A proposal has been made to Liverpool with an opportunity to sign Ilya Zabarnyi from PSG. It remains to be seen if Liverpool will act on the opportunity.

🚨 Paris Saint-Germain and Liverpool are both in talks with Yan Diomande’s camp over move this summer.
Decision up to Diomandé but also RB Leizpig after they had offered new deal + release clause.
👀 #LFC also have Bradley Barcola high on shortlist.

🚨 Yan Diomande a leading target for Liverpool. #PSG also among suitors but #LFC firm contenders; strong position with 19yo RB Leipzig winger & if player deal looks doable club-to-club talks will follow. #RBLeipzig would seek €100m+ to sell @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/Hk4wKLh3oA
With Champions League football all but secured, it is difficult to see Liverpool changing their mind on sticking with Arne Slot. So, if those above him are shouldering the blame for this season, they need a flawless summer to set things right.

🚨 Pep Guardiola, expected to leave Man City THIS summer with Enzo Maresca always been as the ONLY replacement wanted.
Pep ready to say goodbye in the next days, while Maresca said yes to Manchester City months ago.
🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Agreement complete for Xabi Alonso to become Chelsea manager. 44yo Spaniard visited London early last week & accepted opportunity; 4yr contract now finalised - announcement imminent. Primary target throughout + wanted #CFC move @TheAthleticFC https://t.co/4022hQsMXA
⚽️ Broken Beyond Excuse
#AVFC 4-2 #LFC | #PremierLeague
There’s no uncertainty about Liverpool anymore, they have collapsed in full public view.
Aston Villa won 4-2, but anyone who watched that shambles knows the scoreline flattered Liverpool. Villa cut through them at will. Every attack looked dangerous, every set piece looked fatal, every moment without the ball looked like panic waiting to happen. This wasn’t a contest. It was a demolition carried out against a side that has completely lost its identity.
The excuses have run dry. Injuries in attack, fine. But that defence contained senior internationals, the midfield was the same midfield that carried Liverpool to a title, and yet they played with all the structure of strangers meeting in a car park.
12 league defeats. 20 goals conceded from set pieces. 7 away wins all season. The second lowest away tally in over a decade. These are not blips. They are evidence.
Arne Slot looks broken by the scale of the job. Worse than that, he looks incapable of fixing it, regardless of his public protestations. There is no tactical coherence, no intensity, no resilience, no visible plan. Every press conference feels like another exercise in deflection while supporters are asked to ignore what their own eyes are watching every week.
The players deserve criticism, plenty of it, but managers survive bad form by offering solutions. Liverpool’s manager offers none.
Richard Hughes should have acted months ago. FSG should never have allowed this decay to continue unchecked. Instead, Liverpool head into the final game of the season still scrambling for Champions League qualification after entering the season expecting to run away with the league. F**k ‘transition season’ right in the bin, nobody even uttered those words until the wheels fell off.
One more game and this nightmare finally ends. It’s time John, in fact it’s way past time.
