Brothers Red

Fill the void of no @LFC match this weekend by listening to our latest @BrothersRed5 podcast SPECIAL with @LivEchonews LFC journalist, Paul Gorst (@ptgorst). ⚽️🎧 open.spotify.com/episode/5YRZPZ…

@DaveOCKOP He’s such a cult player though not good enough to be a first team starter

I'm also happy Federico Chiesa is still a Liverpool player.

@indykaila This farce illustrates why Isak launched his toys

Marc Guehi looks very upset. Very upset. 😢

@TheAnfieldWrap The difference a prolific no.9 will make to our team can’t be underestimated - it will take us to 2 and 3-0 very quickly against the bottom 10 and make the difference in the tight games.

@TheAnfieldWrap You all look fresh as daises 😂 A transfer window for the ages from the Reds - so bold

@Andrew_Heaton Moor Hall very salubrious

Only a short drive from Aughton to the AXA

@CraigHope_DM I was baffled by your reporting on this as a reputable journalist. It seems so obvious what was going on behind the scenes.

🚨 BREAKING: Liverpool will pay £125m for Alexander Isak after agreeing a deal with NUFC

@RobGutmann What a relief, Rob. All those gutters entirely justified!

🕺🕺🕺🕺🕺🎉🍻🤠🤘

The VAR is wearing a Chelsea shirt today

@RobGutmann Haven’t Palace just signed a CB?

A theory on Guehi - LFC /palace/guehi settle on doing a deal on Jan 1st. Gives Crystal Palace time to get their replacement act together. Glasner happy. Guarantees Guehi constant first team football in a World Cup year. Maybe happier to play less in 2nd half of the season, to keep fresh. Enables LFC to get the player at a much lower fee in January. Give more opportunities to Leoni in less high pressured games.

@AlexIsakLFC @TheRedmenTV (I know I shouldn’t reply to goading but…) Surely, we should play two 10’s in front of a double pivot given that’s its Newcastle away and they have a strong MF. Plus we’ve looked vulnerable in transition.

@BrothersRed5 @TheRedmenTV Get off alcohol

What would be your starting XI to face Newcastle United? 🤔

@TheAnfieldWrap I’m anxious but quietly confident. Surely, it happens after Friday’s match? The point has been lost that this is an utterly bold and brave move by the Reds and it will take some brinkmanship to pull it off.

All quiet on the Isak front 🇸🇪 We expecting this one to get done after Monday's game? Or are we losing confidence?

@LukeEdwardsTele Any player who doesn’t want to play for a club, whether it be Newcastle or Liverpool, should be allowed to leave. He can’t be held against his will. The contract can be discharged by a market valuation.

Alexander Isak’s agent has failed him so badly. I don’t condone Isak’s behaviour in the slightest, but he was told the move to Liverpool would happen even though they are unwilling to match valuation and all had to do was behave badly to force it through. He’s now got a player who has alienated a fan base, tarnished his reputation within football forever who is probably not going to get the move he was told was his to make. He signed a six year contract with no release clause. His agent negotiated that. Trying to force your way out with three years left on that deal was always going to be a very risky road to go down but he did it anyway. Isak might still end up at Liverpool but the chances are fading rapidly and have been for weeks now. How he repairs the damage remains to be seen but he will play next season regardless. The sooner he realises the terrible mistake he has made and apologies the better. Play well, score goals, he will get a huge move next summer if that’s what he wants #nufc

Decent point last night v Forest. Deserved to win. We need to appreciate the competitive nature of PL this season: the teams around us will continue to drop points. Our draws have to be seen in that context: keep putting points on the board.

@TheAnfieldWrap @onepeloton This was a really interesting discussion. I was shouting at Trent on a few occasions more in the vain hope that he would snap out of it. He was a lightning rod for the crowd’s frustration but you expect your local players like him and Curt to be aggressive against Utd.

"The problem is the mantra that this contract thing isn't going to affect the title charge only holds good until things go slightly awry." "Trent got the full brunt of everyone's frustration...we're there to help Liverpool win." 🗣️ The Anfield Wrap with @onepeloton

@_Dan_Austin It was notably quieter in the Upper Annie. The Kop seemed low volume. It didn’t feel like a big game in the build-up because of their lowly position. Tactically, he could have been smarter ie play a number 9, hit more medium to long balls, use free-kicks (as they did) etc.

The atmosphere around Alexander-Arnold at Anfield yesterday was grim and bizarre. Groans, vitriol and abuse from some fans after the very first miscued pass. Have written some analysis about his situation, how it got here, and what could happen next 👇 bbc.co.uk/sport/football…

@DistanceCovered I agree, Josh. It’s frustrating for fans and the blameworthy parties are opaque. I’d love all three players to give interviews, expressing their desire to stay.

@RobGutmann His brace against Arsenal in the FA Cup Final in 2001 was tremendous

I think he absolutely is. His contribution on the pitch was incredible. The best young talent I’ve ever seen at LFC. Won the ballon d’or. Contributed to many trophy wins. Tainted by his career post LFC ? A bit. But same for Torres, Suarez and others. Judged on quality of performance alone, he is clearly one of the greatest LFC forwards of all time.

@RobGutmann @lpoolcouncil A frosty reception, Rob

No thoughts / comments @lpoolcouncil ?

@TomiExcel @indykaila Those two sentences make no sense.

@BrothersRed5 @indykaila Naby was always class when he played unlike Nunez who's shite. A striker that can't score tap ins and stay inside to save his life, but yeah "he causes chaos on the pitch so let's keep him" lmao

If suitable offer comes in for Darwin Núñez this week then #lfc will consider the options.
