The clubs in each case got huge fees for those players, some they had gambled on (Ekitike/Woltemande) and some that had been pretty underwhelming last season (Šeško/Simons). In previous years Wirtz would’ve moved to Bayern for a number far less than what Liverpool paid. I’m sure they’re happy…

I don’t think many people are going to mourn Bayern losing their ability to ruin and undermine competitiveness in the Bundesliga by hoarding all the best talent in the league.

At what point in the match did you dare think ‘we’re going to do this!’

Second question: do you have a personal highlight or moment from the match/trip to Lisbon you’ll always associate with this triumph?

Incredible team, incredible manager and incredible club ❤️

Stock rising: Ødegaard’s shooting

We just don’t attack the box with enough conviction.

So many times there were deflections, half clearances that were set up nicely but we just don’t anticipate those chances or have enough bodies in and around the box to make something of them.

2 of our last 4 are Liverpool away and Newcastle at home, we really should be caring about getting 3 points against palace at home if we want to keep 2nd…

Feel we’re just a bit careless with the final action in attack. Need to start testing their goalkeeper a bit more in the second half.

Any chance this one will be moved to the emirates given the men are playing away on that day?

They love a vanity project

Think those demands are just a way to deter other suitors until Barcelona come calling.

Though with raphinha and lamal do they even need him anymore?
January 22, 2025 at 5:31 PM
How is he still on the pitch?!?
January 15, 2025 at 9:34 PM
Yep, this feels like the long famed ‘market opportunity’.
January 14, 2025 at 1:55 PM
Not quite is a bit of an understatement. We’ve built a forward line of players who’re more used to being supporting characters than being the stars.

Cup semi final and none of our summer acquisitions get on the pitch. Just feels like we blew our opportunity to do something big this season.

I’d love him but don’t think he’s remotely an arteta player.

Felt very Squillaci to me

Quite surprising considering he featured the most for us that out of him/ESR/Reiss Eddie’s been the most underwhelming for his new club.
