Beyond The Last Man

GRAEME SOUNESS Liverpool Best and Greatest Player Ever So when I was younger my Favourite players that made me Happy were Keegan Dalglish Barnes But when I look back and engage the brain none of them could hold a light to Souness Enforcer and playmaker rolled into one Glenn Hoddle with the Ball Nobby Styles without it Souness replaced the greatest club Legend Ian Callaghan which tells you how good he was Joined Jan 1978 left June 1984 and in 5.5 seasons won 5 League titles 3 European Cups 4 League Cups 2 Major Trophies 🏆 a season It took 2 players to replace him one to win the ball and one to pass it In truth you never replace the greatest Midfield player Ever The way to look at it is would we have won all those Titles without Souness probably Not and would we have one all of those titles without a Hansen or Dalglish probably yes Simply took Liverpool to another level Do you agree

All Time BEST TEAM EVER! Does anyone agree with all these players? Or does something have to be replaced?

Devastating for Wales. They gave everything. Pens the cruellest way to miss out. World Cup will be the poorer without Craig Bellamy, Wales and their travelling choirs. Credit to Bosnia & Herzegovina, resilient and then ruthless.

French league moves PS-G’s top-of-the-table clash with Lens to help PS-G “prepare in the best conditions” for the Champions League. PS-G’s trip to Lens was scheduled between two legs of PS-G quarter-final with Liverpool. Decision clearly damages the French league from a sporting perspective (if not in pursuit of Uefa co-efficient points). It’s unfair on Lens. It's also unfair on Liverpool. It’s certainly hard to see PL doing the same for English teams. To help Liverpool prepare in the best conditions should the Fulham match between the PS-G games be postponed? No chance of that happening. Why should Fulham be messed around? Interesting to see Liverpool/Slot’s reaction to PS-G fixture success.

This is architectural terrorism

Anyone else feel like They’re falling out of love with football? Footie players used to be proper men who enjoyed the physical battle, getting stuck in with real aggression. Today it’s basically a non contact sport. The game’s gone.

Zinédine Zidane won the Champions League as a player and a coach. I saw him play live for two different clubs. Ignore the rewriting of history from people obsessed with stats. He was superb. ⬇️

Tonight launching my friend Philippe Auclair’s brilliant book ‘The Mbappe Project’ - not a biography but a study on the impact and legacy of a uniquely “curated” career

Throwback to when Griezmann signed Mbappe for Newcastle on Football Manager ✍️🥶

People want to blame Howe more than PSR because it’s more fashionable. Had Howe been able to lure his first choice targets with the wages 15th placed Man Utd and other teams were able to do, we wouldn’t be in this position. The PL made these rules to stifle us - blame them more.

Seeing reports that Bayern München are only prioritising 'super elite' players in the transfer market and will fill the rest of their squad with home-grown academy graduates. That should be the squad-building blueprint for every elite club with high-performing academies.
