He’s one of our greatest ever players. He’s help set the standards and he seen whats needed to reach that level. He see’s what we don’t, He knows the levels behind the scenes and he’s calling them out. Call it unprofessional or not the Liverpool way but he’s fucking right! 👑
I have witnessed this club go from doubters to believers, and from believers to champions. It took hard work and I always did everything I could to help the club get there. Nothing makes me prouder than that.
Us crumbling to yet another defeat this season was very painful and not what our fans deserve. I want to see Liverpool go back to being the heavy metal attacking team that opponents fear and back to being a team that wins trophies. That is the football I know how to play and that is the identity that needs to be recovered and kept for good. It cannot be negotiable and everyone that joins this club should adapt to it.
Winning some games here and there is not what Liverpool should be about. All teams win games.
Liverpool will always be a club that means a great deal to me and to my family. I want to see it succeed for long after I have moved on.
As I’ve always said, qualifying to next season’s Champions League is the bare minimum and I will do everything I can to make that happen.
In 2026, Liverpool have 0 wins in 9 Premier League games in which Mo Salah hasn't started.
Six points from a possible 27.
In all comps, it's 1 win in 12 without Salah starting this year - that win was against Barnsley in January.
They've won 12/17 when Salah has started.
Joe Gomez on the Anfield boos: "We get it, we understand it. For us older boys who have experienced so many good times here it does hurt. If it didn't then you shouldn't still be here. We want to make it right.
"It's just a reaction to the whole year, and that's fair enough. The fans pay their hard-earned money to come and watch us and they're entitled to show their frustration."
After the initially flurry, Liverpool have lost the tactical battle and have been pinned in by this terrible Chelsea team under an inexperienced interim coach, at Anfield. The coach is pretty obviously a dead man walking due to his out of possession principles.
