Liverpool FC 2025/26 Season

The atmosphere will be intimidating. I want to see a attacking formation.
There's so many YT videos where the entire stadium just bounces there. Pretty awe inspiring. Puts PL atmsopheres to shame !

 
The reason Isak plays of Gyokeres for Sweden is because Gyokeres is a killer in front of goal which Isak is not.

Isak is 26 and has never scored more than 27 goals across competitions in a single season.

Not in a million years would Isak get 120+ G/As in less than 100 matches for Sporting, but Gyokeres would score more goals than Isak in the PL and that will not change now that Isak plays for Liverpool.

Also, let’s not overhype Isak’s all-round play. He is very good, but some of you are acting as if he is Messi. There is nothing special about his all-round play.

Isak is a top player but he is borderline overrated now given the price tag and also the fact that Liverpool fans now think that it’s blasphemy to compare an injury prone twig who has never scored 30+ goals in a season to lethal goal-scorers.

Also, I don’t need your stamps of approval when it comes to football knowledge. I know what I see and I don’t need yours or anyone else’s approval on this forum. You lot can’t see the game properly and are enslaved by your biases.

You wouldn't get my stamp of approval-neither for footy nor mediocre medicine in some random place post 'competitive placing' in med school in Pakistan.

Known as Peshwari Jimmy Hill for a reason bud, although that goes above your head also.

You miss the point (again)...... Isak has a lot more to his game and is asked to do different things- Gyokeres is a lethal finisher but has limited overall play but you try to make a false equivalence and direct comparison-I would have thought the competitive, exclusive Pakistani Medical School would have imparted some key elements of research and how to make appropriate conclusions from data sets and consideration of variables- obviously they didn't.....

Are you sure you live in the UK, and were schooled there? I find it hard to believe given that you cannot construct a coherent sentence to save your life. I have already schooled you over medicine in another thread, so I don't understand why you feel the need to drag the discussion here.

Also, not sure why me being from a provincial capital in Pakistan is a point of mockery. I am proud of my background. I belong to one of the wealthiest families in the region with a rich and proud history. I would take that every day over being a second class citizen in the UK, and having my ancestors sing "God Save the Queen" for the British passports after M. Jinnah liberated them from the same queen.

I'd appreciate if you stick to football discourse.

The notion that Gyokeres is just a goal-scorer with limited all-round play is a narrative rooted in ignorance. It is propagated by people who have not watched him play before he joined Arsenal. This is common for your average ignorant PL fan like yourself who have no clue about football outside the PL or the big leagues to a degree, and therefore, put too much emphasis on "Prem proven" which means absolutely nothing. Some of the best players in the world are not "Prem proven" and they don't need to be.

Here are some fun facts:

Gyokeres has more assists for Sweden than Isak is far less matches.

Over the last two seasons, Gyokeres has more key passes, progressive balls, and successful dribbles than Isak. There goes the rubbish narrative that Isak is "far better at other things". Even if he is and I don't mind giving him extra leeway for playing in a tougher league, the difference is not significant enough to counter the fact that Gyokeres scores way more goals than Isak can ever hope to.

This myth is propagated by people who cannot acknowledge the fact that Gyokeres is a vastly superior #9 because every evidence points in that direction except the mythical "Prem proven" nonsense which means absolutely nothing. Gyokeres is settling into life at Arsenal and so is Isak at Liverpool, and by the end of this season, the myth that Isak is better than Gyokeres will be dead and buried.

It is very clear that Gyokeres is the smarter signing, especially when you consider the fact that Isak has a highly inflated price tag and a dodgy injury record unlike Gyokeres, who has only missed 5 games through injury in his entire career. Gyokeres is a value for money signing but Isak is not.
 
Not a particularly concerning result given the format, you just need to do enough for top 8.

However that's a concerning performance - way too ponderous and sloppy in possession. Too much messing about with the ball at the back. Konate again looked a liability.

That said it was a soft penalty and the ball was barely in play with stoppage after stoppage after stoppage.

Injuries to Alisson and Ekitike tops off a poor night.

Konate looks a huge liability, not signing a CB in summer is now coming back to effect Liverpool.. if you don't fix that issue in January you could fall short in all competitions.

Seems to be an imbalance in your team between defence and attack. You play like vs chelsea you will drop points. Even though they have been indifferent this season
 
Poor performance once again.

Too ponderous and lacked a purpose for long periods.

Early days but a few adjustments are needed, wirtz drops too deep atm, should be playing between the lines but is too deep
 
Wheels well and truly off.

Need to go back to tried and tested players for a while. Robbo and Bradley as full backs with Grav, Macca and Dom in midfield and Gakpo, Ekitike and Salah as front 3. When Isak is 100% fit, move Ekitike out left with Isak as no 9.

Other new players need time on the bench and come on if and when need be.
 
As I mentioned weeks ago, Liverpool have shot themselves in the foot with their transfer business this summer. They made too many changes.

Signing both Isak and Ekitike was not required. You can’t fit in both, and the end result will be you’ll make both players unhappy. Wirtz is also the wrong fit for the club.

The good news for Liverpool and perhaps the most important news is that neither Arsenal nor City are good enough to capitalize this season, so Liverpool should still win the league.
 
Chat GPT's finest LOL.
It’s called a footballing lesson which you have failed to counter. I don’t use Chat GPT, it’s for people like you with broken English who can’t string coherent sentences together and therefore, lack the intellectual capacity to engage in articulate discourse.

Haha, sure it is.... your use of AI is very good, broken English? I think if they allowed the use of AI with the PLAB, you could make it out of mediocrity but keep at that mediocre level.

Counter? Counter AI- what is the need? From someone who stated week 3- Arsenal on course, then within 2 weeks, Arsenal will never win anything- this is 1 example out of countless others Peshwari Jimmy Hill, then you talk of countering! Stick to video games!

I might trigger my vertigo reading this incoherent word salad. Please use Chat GPT more often my guy. Your English is a joke.

There's Chemistry issues. When you have alot of departures and new recruitments, this can be a problem.

I see Liverpool not being at their best for a while yet.
Spot on bhai.

Chemistry takes time, where last year was thought to be the transition year, it seems more like this year with a drastically different playing style.
 
That is what happens when a non CB is playing there, Gravenberch a little deeper than the rest, played cucurwlla onside...
 
Can accept Palace and Chelsea are tough aways - not many go there and win. However some serious red flags with our performances at the minute.

We concede possession too easily. Not even talking about risky balls but simple passes ! MacAllister is normally so accurate but this season he's been below par, and fortunate to not be subbed earlier.

We're also seemingly turning up to games as and when we feel like it. That's two woeful first halves vs Palace and Chelsea, much better second halves, but suckerpunched late twice after wasting so many chances. Can't remember our last decent full 90.

Thankfully the first five wins gives us some margin for error, but much improvement needed after international break. Man Utd at home next !

Very sloppy and disjointed in 1st half, your midfield seems to be very slow ahd ponderous. Konate looks like prime Titus Bramble. Even Salah looked woeful in1st half.

Seems most games your to interested in over passing, rather then getting ball forward quickly, which you only do when the game is being chased.

Yep, we look much better when we're not faffing around with the ball at the back.

Salah's been disappointing all season to be honest. There's a reason why FSG are reluctant to renew contracts for players over 30. I can't remember the last time Salah beat his full-back 1v1. He also wasted a couple of good chances, and as he doesn't track back leaves us vulnerable defensively too.

Been a great servant but shouldn't be a guaranteed starter especially when Chiesa's impressed every chance he's got.

The 2 chances he had at start on 2nd half he would have normal buried, he seemed to be more bothered about personal glory then team play.

Slot needs to go back to basics and get you playing like you did last season. This move to wanting more possession doesn't suit your players. Plus changing certain players roles like Gravenberch hasn't helped you at all.

Atleast right now, the league is bit more competitive at top. Even though overall quality in Premier league has dropped

Surely it's obvious. Chemistry is lacking. You've changed both FB positions. Made adjustments in CM and in the attack. It will take time for you guys to get it all together.

Whats hindering Slot is he can't work on it in the Traiining Ground with 2 Gsmes per week which then requires Rest and Recovery.

With all the above. Don't be surprised, November, December the months we see Scousers at their Fluent best.
 
It's embarrassing how some pool fans hide when things aren't going well.

Will be some lame excuse of how he has a life and doesn't spend time on forums. Apart from when it's time to banter arsenal

Pretty much 99% of Asian Liverpool fans are like this. This is why every single one on here and ones on social media and WhatsApp groups im in have been given brutal phainti that they deserve.

All of them are suddenly busy, when they lose.

Plastic part timers that they are

Some of us are still here posting.

Ups and downs are part of the season, winning so many games playing badly does not usually last and has not here.

The key is to build chemistry and see where that taker the team in the latter part of the season.

Im not foolish enough to write Liverpool off, however a lot of Asian fan base like to give banter and then run off as soon as they lose a game.
 
They tried to buy the PL title for 25/26 season through their record signings but they seem to be far off than last season.

Transition..... was needed at some point, drop off was going to happen, chemistry needs to be found.
 
@KingKhanWC. Come on Bro. We're worried about your well-being. You're not Normally known to be AWOL like this. Just imagine if UTD spank you guys. 🤣🤣🤣 we will have to put up a lasting memorial up for you on these Boards.

🤣🤣 if united spank Liverpool or even beat them, after the international break then you will see full retirement from him from PP.
 
The melt down of Liverpool fans this week has been hilarious 😂

Slot is a fraud, he only win league with klopps squad
Salah shouldn't have been re-signed
Kerkez is bad transfer (even though he look excellent last season)
Wirtz was needed

🤣🤣 entitled spoilt brats, throwing toys of prams after 1 bad week

I am worried now. I remember a certain Poster taking time out to post on the Arsenal thread during an Umrah trip. remember @topspin ?

SAME ENERGY BROTHER!!!

Arsenal fans take a lot of stick but we don't run away. Well apart from the troll.

Talk to us. Its not even that bad to be honest. 1 point behind is nothing
 
As mentioned, some of us are still here and stayed throughout.....

Meltdown? Lol, winning so many games towards the end of games after playing badly and with the defence not having shown up- as well as, so many changes- a downturn was expected, only a question of when....

Talksport is hilarious at moment, literally every Liverpool fan crying and throwing towel in.

I know as Arsenal fans we have had it bad, but never seen it as bad as Liverpool fans are crying this week.

Liverpool defence last season wasn't great, the difference was that gravenberch did a good job infront of them. Also you were winning lots of high scoring games at other end.

Waiting till last day of TW to get gheui backfired big time as that will need to be rectified in January

Also Virgil van twirk needs to learn how to defend properly. Konate is done as a player.

Liverpool need to go back to basics and go back to what won you league last season

I think he’ll need another umrah trip to perform prayers with the way Liverpool are playing atm 🤣🤣🤣
 
Drop Salah vs Man Utd..go with Isak Ekitike, Wirtz, Mac, Gravenberch, Soboz, Robertson, Konate, VVD, Bradley.
 
Think Arsenal fans are getting over excited. The lead is two points. You might be back to AFTV level of crying soon.

No one is getting over excited, no one is proclaiming Arsenal or champions or favourites etc..

It's just simple football banter, as usual 99% of Asian Liverpool fans go AWOL when it's banter time
 
Arsenal fans are not getting “overexcited”. In fact 3 of them have predicted the side to finish short of winning the league.

The hide and seek champion is just getting a taste of his own medicine.

Spot on, however, the defence this season is certainly worse than even last year.

RB position unsettled
Konate nowhere near at the level of last season
VVD some regression noted and not at last year
LB position- Kerkez not settled yet either


Even with Gravenberch, the defence needs to settle. Guehi was a big miss
