@DKingTelegraph He was very impressive!!

If you want an example of how to deal with an interview when emotions are running high and a decision has gone against you, watch Jarrod Bowen discuss the goal that wasn’t. Everyone tells you he’s a class act: it’s easy on that to see why.

@StanCollymore And what difference does it make … absolutely zero difference?

Corner placing. In 99% of life when a lined area defines something (road lines, parking spot, writing in books, mathematical equations, etc etc etc ad nauseum) then that definition means staying inside the box or area. In Association Football that meant placing the ball clearly and unambiguously inside the quadrant. Now, along with any number of perfectly sound law applied for generations, you can put your tv on and literally see a corner quadrant empty at a corner and the ball so far out of it that it's hard to know whether to laugh or cry. Sometimes basic logic works. If there's a box or line to put something in, that's where it's supposed to go. Whoever decided a shadow of a ball hanging over the ball is frankly... A fucking idiot.

@themacatron @SimonCalder Watching this. I have more time (6 weeks is hopefully enough to resolve immediate airspace issues) but similar flights to Maldives. Good luck … please post back when you establish your options

@SimonCalder Hi, Due to fly from Heathrow to Maldives on Monday with stopover in Dubai. If/when the flight is cancelled will I get a full refund from Emirates as I booked the full package with them, hotel and flights? Thanks

Many questions about passengers' rights. If you are booked from the UK, or on a British/European airline from anywhere in the world, air passengers’ rights rules apply. Non-UK or EU airline from outside Europe? The carrier has few legal obligations to help independent.co.uk/travel/news-an…

@Friso_Bosma @gstokey @PhilBlundell Limping after he’d tried to take Kerkez out at the ribs😂 #LFC

@gstokey @PhilBlundell 😂😂 Only miracle I saw was Saka limping for a good 10 seconds but when he got the ball there was nothing wrong with him

@NeilKendrick3 It was stupid wasn’t it?

Gakpo letting them off the hook with foul #LFC

@kingscelo_05 Tonight? Simple … pace. He’s way quicker than Robbo #LFC

Someone need to make me understand why Kerkez start over Robbo #LFC

@TheOnlyBrianG But Wirtz dropping deep is what’s creating the space to enable us to play the forward pass. He’s the only one with that type of movement #LFC

Better bit of possession here. Problem is when Wirtz drops in there’s no outlet ahead of him. #LFC

@Davidson_99z @mcgrathmike Or … he’ll be looking at the lack of pace in the current #LFC, Wirtz and Ekitike settling in and licking his lips at what he could achieve there

@mcgrathmike He'll probably chose city over this current Liverpool

Bournemouth braced for twist in race for Antoine Semenyo. Liverpool wait in wings. Man City in strong position. Still time left before window opens and £65m release clause active 🍒🍒🍒🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭 telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/…

My Dad didn't like United or Liverpool but he never understood the idea of chanting about people not having jobs or being hungry. "Working people don't say such things about other working people" He was right back then, he would be disgusted if he were still with us.

This is misleading and scaremongering! The Public Accountability Bill will do the opposite of what this article claims! Would it not have been more fair and balanced to have contacted one of us at @NowHillsborough for an opportunity to respond to this @RSylvester1 ?

A white British father and son BOTH raped the same child and pled guilty to multiple counts of sexual assault, including assaulting a child UNDER 13 This has been in the press for 2 days. The Mirror is the only National newspaper to report on it… And THAT’s why people have such a skewed perception of the links between race and SA. Because they never hear about the white guys!

@DJSpoony @StanCollymore Agree … I’ve been waiting for Stan’s thoughts #LFC

@StanCollymore I think youre almost as good a pundit as you were a footballer Stan 😀. I often think you offer an insight and balance to an issue that is nuanced. You articulate it in a very fair way. Without bias or personal leanings. Like many before, this is an excellent post. Well done you.

Mo Salah. A very long read. I think I know a little about LFC, its supporters and how they view their club. Shaped of course by Shankly then Paisley, Kenny, Jurgen and now now Slot. One thing remains constant, perhaps more than any other English club, its always the club first and last, players and managers add their DNA to the club, but the club trumps the individual. Now, Mo Salah has left plenty of winners DNA at Anfield and has taken his place in the pantheon of greats. So it's interesting to see his interview, dropping a grenade into the club because if I know Liverpool and it's supporters at all (I think there may be even a generational difference in responses, younger supporting the grenade, older shaking their heads) then their first reaction will be.. Club, first and last, don't care who it is. Its a living and breathing mantra and one that even Mo Salah will find it difficult to duke it out against. Now, could Arne Slot be less pally with players than Jurgen? Absolutely, he's a calm, relaxed, tad detached guy who ( if you remember) was unimpressed with Trent early doors and showed a nonchalant attitude in season one to "one of their own" who'd won everything there is to win. I think that's impressive, but not as impressive as winning the title in your first season. So he's earned his respect too. The team are playing well in spurts, comedy defending and decision making at other times. That includes everyone, and if you ask 99.9% of players if they'd accept 2 or 3 games on the bench for not hitting levels, all will say yes. Only in the madness of 2025 modern football would the cult of personalities not only question a reasonable conclusion of "you're not playing well, here's a spell on the bench", but Mo maybe has almost tricked himself onto elevating himself to the untouchable status of Messi or Ronaldo, players who could, if they chose, literally do and say as they pleased in the last decade. Mo isn't them, and Liverpool as I said, isn't that club either. I'm sure some of the youngsters will rant "he's right and Slot's to blame ", but without any evidence that Slot has deliberately ( managers NEED their star players to perform, not to be asked about them in every presser for the next 5 months....) ostracised anyone at the club other than do what every good manager has done since the invention of the game, namely leave someone out who's not playing well misses the point as every great club, team and manager have dropped great players at some stage. Some even when playing well!! The solution to what is now a very open sore is simple (ish) 1. Player and manager talk privately. 2. Manager tells player what he wants from the player. 3. Player commits or tells manager he wants out. 4. If player wants out, make it happen quickly. If not, pick the player and let him be judged by his continued performances. If they're poor, manager can't lose, "I told you so". If they're great, manager can't lose. So Slot playing Mo is a very good starting point, especially as 2 very big signings have yet to make Mo " yesterday's man" Arne Slot can help himself a little by using his natural openness to say " maybe I'm not Jurgen but I love my players and they couldn't have won a spectacular title last season without reacting to me and my methods a little too, but I hear Mo's comments and I can tell you all now, I love him to bits and he's ours to keep". That heads off any "seniors" with similar grenades to throw. But one thing's for sure, I don't think there will ever be a Liverpool player past, present or future with valid gripes that would jeopardise the "club first and last" ethos of Liverpool, and those who've had legitimate concerns I'm sure aired them at an appropriate time, not a flash interview when emotions are high. Liverpool FC have done as well for every player who's played for them as players have done for the club, so the institution has earned that private, rather than public critique. Whoever that's from.

@AlienGeek_ @indykaila They’re right to be worried that Guehi and Semenyo might have second thoughts. Both will have great confidence that they’ll improve the team but must be concerned that there could be a different Coach at the start of next season #LFC

@greenislandlife @rockatanescu @RobGutmann He had several actual opportunities to play in Kerkez in the past few games … all rejected

@rockatanescu @RobGutmann No one has told Gakpo then. He NEVER passes to Kerkez even though he makes a good run round him in total space. Bizarre. Very frustrating to watch

One argument I’m very on board with is how Gakpo has been persevered with. He’s been a massive problem this season. Those who thought Luis Diaz could go because we still had Gakpo were very wrong. Scarily this seems to have been the miscalculation at LFC .

@rvmqs @SamMcGuire90 Agreed. We bought him for moments like this … getting the first goal in a must win game or the winner when the match is decided by one. Big forward players score BIG goals #LFC

@SamMcGuire90 He won the game for us. That’s what a top striker does. This is just the start for him.

It'll probably be downplayed because it's Isak and we spent huge money on him, but some finish, this. x.com/SAULPPP7/statu…

@rehctubyIIib @jonothescot @_Dan_Austin Quite right too. They work under enormous pressure and have to be the face/voice of the Club, etc. but, as “Coach”, the key decisions are not theirs. They deserve the financial compensation that goes with being sacked … why resign?

It is incomprehensible how bad Liverpool have become. Can't recall seeing a top team look more poorly coached or like they've got less belief in what they're supposed to be doing. Felt like everyone involved - on the pitch, touchline, and in the crowd - fully gave up tonight.

@lfcpaul2023 @CraigBruce__ @TheAnfieldWrap The lack of width is astonishing … we’re so easy to defend against. At least make the opposing full backs think a little … they’re defending with their eyes closed most of the time. #LFC

@CraigBruce__ @TheAnfieldWrap All true. And stop bringing the full backs inside.does my fucking nut
