Arne Slot is the new Liverpool manager! But which of his squad should he keep, sell, loan and let leave for frees! Mo Salah, Darwin Nunez, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Luis Diaz and the full squad are analysed today. - Розваги
Liverpool fans - which one player is a MUST sell for Slot? 👇👇
Tsimikas for me. Third choice left back, really isn't a rrquirement, doesn't offer anything either offensively or defensively that Robertson/Gomez. Even players like Owen Beck deserve to be in and around the squad after a very impressive loan spell at Dundee
Who says anyone should be bought or sold for that matter?
SMH
@@geraldngundo1193 Liverpool are getting a new manager after so many years of Klopp so evidently older players will be sold and new players who fit the system will be bought.
@@aulayf7739 unless Liverpool is moving to the NFL there's no need for the disruption.
@@geraldngundo1193 Whilst i don't think Luis Diaz would look out of place as a wide receiver on the 49ers our squad is far from perfect and we need to release some ageing players as well as bringing players to fulfil vacant roles such as a long term Fabinho replacement.
Liverpool fans im a Feyenoord fan your in good hands. What Slot did with Feyenoord is Legendary.
Love to hear it!
Ajax fans said the same about ten hag
@@goat252ten Hag went to a toxic commercial club. Slot is going to a healthy football club.
@@freekvonk2141very good point
He‘s surely a good manager, however filling klopps shoes will be though for anyone. It is going to be interesting.
harvey elliot’s best role is from the bench to expose exhausted defenders with his energy and focus on getting the ball forward as often as possible… imo in football now more than ever its actually desirable to be a bench only player, at least for the club, because subs are more important than ever and having that unique profile of sort of ‘go and win the game’ player without a fixed position suits that perfectly
Needs to be more productive on the ball and have a better end product, so many times he is in a really good position then shoots the ball way over, in the stadium it's frustrating as he's done it and hasn't grown this last season. If he wants to be an attacking player his output must improve like the other forwards
@@Ruscococo1 hes got the 3rd most assists from any premier league player since jan 1st 2024, hes producing more.
You can see Elliott is good enough to start from recent games but we can’t start him on the wing. He doesn’t work there cos he’s not fast or strong enough and isn’t as good positionally as salah. Elliott has the quality to start for us but it’s likely that he won’t due to szoboszlai being a big singing and having expectation
Kelleher was superb and we'll be lucky to keep hold. No ill feeling if he leaves to pursue a number 1 spot, he really deserves it
Lovren is a must keep!
he's had a sh it season get rid
Lovren?
Haha!
Think kuyt is really going to thrive under Slot
Don't forget Sahko! And Borini!
I think signing David Hancko from Feyenoord would be very smart (despite the idea of managers bringing players from the previous club not actually happening lots). Some of his numbers are outstanding and i reckon he could work his way into starting at LB which would also be helpful for Trent allowing him more freedom in attack w less defensive responsibilities.
Dutch league players have been really poor in recent years like none have actually worked out wellm
@@Ruscococo1 yeah mate van dijk's been awful
@@aulayf7739 he came from Southampton and I said recent years...van Dijk came in 2017. Plus he was in Celtic before Southampton....
@@Ruscococo1 recent years is a vague term how long ago is recent. Also saying near on every player to come from the dutch league hasn't worked is shocking. Alvarez, Martinez, wijnaldum, onana ect
On Salah:
1.) Are we sure he wants to play in Saudi Arabia? That’s a complicated topic.
2.) Are we sure he wouldn’t accept a small wage cut?
3.) He would be assist leader of the Prem if Nuñez could score.
4.) On his ability to morph into a “provider” role, why do people write him off as lacking creativity? Is the English Premier League a league known for classy defending? Not really. If the only difference here was that Salah played for Inter Milan, yes he would be a definite sell. I’m just not convinced that the Prem is a very difficult league to break down defensively. Salah can do it. If you are hesitant to call him a genius, maybe ask yourself why that is.
1) he is viewed very highly in the Arab world and hard for any player to turn down Saudi wages, 4) whilst he has had good moments of play-making with a number of eye-catching trivela assists they are mostly due to his one footedness and whilst he does possess a good technical ability some times (particulary post-afcon) it has been lacking
If I was a betting man, I think he ends up staying and then leaves for free next season or signs a cotnract extension.
@@joethomlinson_ agree
Sell him as soon as possible.
@@joethomlinson_ that's not much of a bet it's kinda 50/50 leave or extend 🤷🏻😂
this just goes to show how underrated endo really is. imo, one of the most underrated players this season. he helps cover back when robbo and trent go up, he’s very defensive minded and aggressive on the ball, a big part of our defense this year. he’s definitely an important part of our squad this season, one of the best signings we’ve made in recent years.
Great squad players like Endo and Milner DO win you trophies!
he’s underrated for sure but he still shouldn’t be a starter on this team if we’re expecting champions league runs. he has too many stinker performances in him.
@@deanoss777 he’s only had 1 stinker performance all season
I 100% agree with what you said about Szoboslai, and I'm with you on Salah (unfortunately). I love Szobo, but I think he's out of place in the midfield. He was a winger at Leipzig and I think he could replace Salah, or even be a false nine if Mo stays. He doesn't seem to fit in with Endo and Maca, and we have so many young midfielders. I think he's got the size, skill, and precision to hold a prem attacking slot, and I really hope Slot moves him up.
I would definitely still keep nunez. He still not yet reach his peak yet and still developing. Yes his finishing is bad and frustrating but lets not forget he is our chance creator too. He will get his finishing sort out and i really hope the manager can mold him to be a proper and complete no 9.
You think he could play LW under Slot?
@@joethomlinson_ possibly and its up to slot how to utilise him. I m sure he will figure it out
@@joethomlinson_ I couldn't see that happening as i could imagine Slot preferring gakpo on the left as that's where he was at his best as a crossing/goalscoring winger at PSV
If liverpool want to win primier league sell nunes.Nunes miss 32 chances this season next season nunes will miss 64 chances so no thank u.Some liverpool fan will says give him next season he will improve every season
@@liversalah5560 see thts thing. He could play different role next reason possibly lw as slot has good record of turning players into a proper world class players. Yes his finishing is bad but in mean time who knows slot would make him a better finisher and be proper no 9. If he does underperform then we can move him on. So for now we keep him for another season.
Thanks for the content Joe. It is greatly appreciated ❤
Keep up the hard work, the progress you are making is wonderful to see 😍
Don’t you dare put Darwizzy as sell. He’s the GOAT!!!
Bro thanks to these jokes we lost the premier league get serious we need serious players who will get us results
He's awful sell him .
I agree that the season of Szobo was somewhat disappointing, however, I think there are a few factors to note. As you also mentioned, a lot of it was mainly tiredness; with so many injuries and red cards at the beginning of the season he really had to step up and put an inhuman amount of work in -- what he also did. Then, after his injury he couldn't pick up the pace that well. But in his first premier league season it's very much understandable, especially if we consider that he was played in a very different position. He is an attacking midfielder, a Nr. 10 and not an 8. And finally, if the attackers would have scored in the perfect passes he made his confidence and all of our opinions would have been very different -- I imagine it is super annoying when you do all the work but then Nuñez misses the unmissable.
I appreciate this analysis. I like how you brought up contracts and timing.
I am new i have subbed and liked the video greetings from an irish Liverpool fan YNWA❤❤😊
great knowledge pal 🤓👍 Calvin Ramsey left Preston in January and joined us on loan, not the other way round
That was exactly my thoughts . Great video 👏
Nice!
Us being top if Jota was fit is so real. Fucking hate injuries.
Or at least in that mix now!
Would love to see an Ipswich Town dream summer window video!
Incredible video Joe. Very Level-headed, that's rare.
I would however like to see what Slot does with Carvalho as a 10, not necessarily as a starter.
I’d defo keep Morton and Van Den Berg, they’re quality
van den Berg has done really well for Mainz this season, but he's been playing in a back 3, so still not sure he could cope playing in a back 4 (with attacking full backs) at Premier League level...
@@Red__Law surely you give him a chance though? If it goes well he'll be easily a 60mil+ player and if not we could still sell him for a profit. He just turned 22 (is in the top 10 bundesliga cbs stat wise, and if we where linked to buy him fans would be all for it) while VVD didn't start to get his stride until his second year at Southampton (25). I like to think under a Dutch captain + Dutch manger he's set up to succeed.
@@conorgillespie7832 Yeah I can see him being given a chance during pre season to impress, and he does count as home grown which is a bonus, I just wonder if he'll be sold in order to generate some funds tho.
@@conorgillespie7832not could. Regardless of how much we sell him for, it will be a profit. He initially cost 1.3 million. There is no way we will sell him for anything under 20 million, he is still only 22 has has performed exceedingly well in arguably the second best league in the world.
and jayden danns, the guy will be perfect for fa cup and carabao cup games, etc next season. hasn't been too bad in the odd mins he got in the prem either
Anyone think Fabio Carvalho will get a bit of a chance this year with a no.10 role in the new system?
Nice video, would like to see the inverse now, which positions should Slot look to bolster and who should those signings be?
Really cool idea!
Great analytics, well-done.
For me I'll keep Salah for this transition phase, his presence in the squad commands a lot of energy and awareness against oppositions. I'll keep Nunez, get another hybrid striker to compete with his position.
Love it!
For a transition period, you can't get rid of squad leaders and Salah is a squad leader.
Keep Salah for one more year and sell Nunez
@@redrev674up until he went away to AFCON and got injured, not only was he our best player, he was the best player in the league. We need to keep him no matter what. And sell Nunez? He not only has goals to his game, he has added assists too, he is a creative force and no defender wants to play against him. People have such short term memories.
Slot is such a good manager he is not like a Ten Hag that joined a washed United with no infrastructure at the top. Arne Slot will join a strong organised Liverpool. Peter Bosz was leading the bundesliga with BvB in his first 6 months playing fun football. de Boer is just shite.
Agreed - the infrastructure is so so key.
Keeping Diaz and selling Darwin is crazy
Ain't no way Liverpool is selling the 2 top scorers in the team at the same time
I think Szoboszlai will improve next season. He is an inixperienced premier league player unlike macallister who is, and he needs time to settle in. And the Premier league is a pretty hard league to play if you think about it.
4231 could be good for Liverpool, especially for szoboszlai
I think he'll be better as a 10 than an 8, tbh
Good for Gakpo, Szoboszlai, Elliot all those types of players comfortable on the ball
"The transference of skill from the Eredevisie to the Premier League is huge..." Folks talk about this point endlessly as if the Premier League is full of highly skilled managers and is super competitive, in reality, it's only Pep and Klopp who've won the Premier League since 2016-2017, when Antonio Conte was the last non MCFC/LFC manager to do so. In a competitive league, it wouldn't be so dominated by MCFC. It's a risk with any new manager taking over from a club legend like Klopp, but it just as easily go swimmingly. To give Ten Haag credit, he has won a domestic cup and a European trophy in 2 years at Man Utd. Even Pep would struggle with their squad, so drawing critical observations about the quality of Dutch coaches is a but OTT, I'm an LFC fan and I'd have been happy with a league cup and Europa League in one season under Klopp, when I think of how everything has crumbled this season!
Ten Hag praise from a Liverpool fan! I’ve seen it all now!
Thank you very much for this
I've been saying this since
The EPL this, the EPL that
Can't wait for this season to end so we can all call it a farmer's league
@@joethomlinson_but Antony is still shit 😉
@@joethomlinson_I think a lot of Liverpool fans agree that Ten Haag was a decent manager before going to United however as time has gone on the situation has shown he's not capable of managing a club that's got a lot of background problems. He's starting to look delusional in some of his interviews.
ten hag didnt win a european trophy with utd
Great video. Only thing i really disagree on is Selling Nunez. I would give him atleast a season to see how he works in slots system.
1 more season?
@@joethomlinson_i agree think about the improvement for szn 1 or 2. even tho he’s still missing chances id predict he’ll have an even better szn next year
For someone who supposedly can't finish, he still has a lot of goals and assists this season.
Selling Salah is easier said than done, If Mo goes, who will score Liverpool's goal next season? Diaz, Gakpo, Nunez, and Jota can't provide the numbers that Salah provides consistently. People are forgetting that Salah has been Liverpool top goal scorer for 7 consecutive seasons. Liverpool needs a player or players to not only replace his goals and his creativity, too
Is next season the final season of football? He's leaving the year after regardless and man's getting old, he has to be replcaed soon anyway so getting some nice cash to do so would be a little helpful.
agreed but a relatively cheap option Liverpool could acquire , due to a rumoured buyback clause, would be Solanke who would be able to provide a reasonable number of goals and work as a stop gap in this period of transition
United fan saying Liverpool should sell Salah. Not fooling anyone
@@zacknmcs Yeah lol, Salah has given United plenty of nightmares over the years.
Jota could if he stayed fit, but thats a big if and ill back darwin until i die, one day somethings just going to click and hes going to be insane… taking longer than i hoped/expected tho lol
Liverpool should have appointed Joe Thomlinson as their. Amazing content ❤
Love a Thomlinson tier listtttt
Good man!
I think Dans was underutilized especially over the last few weeks when we were struggling for goals. I mean nothing was working we might as well have thrown him in
I will say a great video would be you euro predictions like a mock tournament prediction
Definitely will do, big man!
I think it would be best to cash in on Mo Salah now, like you said if a good 100m+ offer came in and get a good young replacement like Summerville. As for Nunez I'll probably say lets give him one more season and see how he fits in the new system..
Disagree with you. I would keep Daans. Seen what he is capable of, love his figthing spirit ( like Diaz) and would give him mintues next season.
Keep Kostmas Tsimkas as well. Solid back up to have and produces 7 out of 10 most times. He loves Liverpool too much.
We would be lucky if Kelleher does stay best second choice goalkeeper to have.
Endo as good as he has been for us. Underrated it is a 50/50 with him. Szobo too needs to be more influential too but defo Szobo stays.
Agree with you with Nunez.
At the same time I wouldn’t let Salah go. He produces insane numbers each season and is constant. He has improved his all around game and his passing range is soo underrated as well. But like you said yourself, it would be hard to down £100 million too. It is a massive fee for his age. But I do think we will plan with Salah next season and will be our main man.
Gomez has been impressive to be fair but I think a new challenge would be good for him and need a new replacement for him.
I don't agree with selling both nunez and salah at the same time, likely either sell neither of them and work through a full season under slot or sell one (and prepare to lose the other)
There's bound to be some transfer activity in defence and it doesn't make sense to do the same in attack by reducing starter options to 3. You argue szoboszlai can fit into the attacking position when necessary, but he's still mainly a midfield option and liverpool will need at least one or 2 options off the bench to the attacking positions.
I think when Nunez is on fire, he’s easily the best player on the pitch. His xg definitely leaves a lot to be desired, but he’s been in good form all season apart from the last few months. Won us the games against Newcastle, and the game against Nottingham, won the decisive penalty against City, (those are the only ones that come off the top of my head) I think Liverpool fans have been too harsh on the team as a whole but football opinions are so bipolar so I digress (from a Liverpool fan)
Great video and analysis. Agree with most but would keep Bobby Clark and Nunez will come good. Believe.
sell diaz as liverpool fan, ik i sound crazy but liverpool biggest problem is selling players to late
PSG are supposed to be interested tbh
Kostas is a fan favourite but it is a sell for me too. Regarding Salah id even taken an offer around £50 million, it sounds crazy but I would rather that than lose him for free next summer, especially when you consider how tight our owners are with money.
I will back darwin until the day i die. Ill admit the guy is frustrating as hell, its a real love/hate relationship but when he hits it’s going to be superstardom.
As for mo, i was on board with selling him last summer. Unfortunately, saudi dicked around for so long that we couldn’t do it in the end. Dont mean to disrespect this goat, but its time to cash in imo.
Rest of the list is pretty solid besides the loans and no way kelleher stays unfortunately. But, this is 2 years in a row we’ve had injury an crisis, we need to keep at least bajetic and clark for cover. Also where was mcconell?
I got to agree with you for the shouts. I think Salah will stay but if Saudi comes knocking with 100 mil I think we should let him go and get Kudus, Bowen or Rodrygo (if he wants to go) and get Summerville for the rotation. Besides the Salah situtation I'm still not sure about Nunez on one hand I want to see him try it under Slot in a new system - I think that he is similair to Giminez in a way as a real targetmen. On the other hand if we can get between the 60 and 80 mil for him we should try and get Isak because of the situation at Newcastle.
The biggest thing besides my earlier points is a CDM. I really think that Endo -even though he showed his talents- was a stopgap signing. We should go all out for a proper CDM. Someone Bajcetic could learn from. I like Palhinha but he gets to many cards. I liked Kimmich but I think that he isn't going to leave. I like Doucouré or Wharton but are they good enough? Same goes for Wieffer too young and is he prem ready? I'm not sure who should deserve the 6 spot next to Macca but I reckon that we should spent big on that position.
why do people think so highly of rodrygo is beyond me. He has worse stats than fking nunez (a man who misses 85% of the shots he takes). that guy isn't the best replacement for salah. Rodrygo is way too overrated. I'd go for Sane if he was to come
What team do you support bro?
They forced to play Szobo in the wrong position.Szobo is creative and a prodigy.Whos respo that he lost it?
You are absolutely right. Szobo is a super responsible person, he was asked to play mostly on the defensive side. He covered for Trent a lot when Trent left his position
Szobo has also provided at least 50 game winning passes, most have been wasted upfront. I have also noticed that Salah would very rarely pass to Szobo, heck knows why. In the Bundesleague they played very slick , creative soccer, lot of passes, no selfishness, in such environment Dom strives. Seeing how his passes are wasted on a weekly basis and then blaming the midfield for the mistakes our impotent offensive line make must be discouraging, to say the least..
He'll look better in the 10 i think!
The one thing I'm hoping for with slot coming is use gakpo on the wind and not as a striker, knowing how gakpo played really well in psv out wide.
I imagine he'll be a 10 under Slot.
@@joethomlinson_ either way I hope he use him well. People write him off so much but I've always liked the way he plays.
Owen Beck made into the Scottish League TOTS and a lot of fans have said that he's Robertson 2.0. Will probably get a chance in pre-season.
Watched him live vs Hibernian at home. Runs the play from LB with a great engine not to mention he got himself a goal. Deserves a chance.
@@aulayf7739I haven’t watched a lot of games of him so correct me if I’m wrong. Isn’t he a defensive liability in our system since he plays high up the pitch almost as a left winger? I feel like he’s more of a wing back in a 3/5 back than a natural full back in a back 4. Which I’ve noticed a lot with Robbo aswell lately, that’s why I prefer Joe Gomez atm for more control and defensive stability
Joe what did you ask the barber when you got an haircut. I want this exact same haircut but don’t know how to explain it. Please I beg of you let me know. I saw it in the Sunday vibes video
Haha! Not sure if this is sarcasm or not - if not it's just a skin fade with a mullet!
@@joethomlinson_ it is not sarcasm at all
@@joethomlinson_ just thought if I spammed you that was the best way to get you to reply you and I have similar hair so wanted to give it a go. Big ups from USA my brother
I wonder if selling TAA for big money and getting a solid defensive RB would benefit them more allowing Salah or his replacement to attack instead of sit back and defend?
Slot had one of his defenders do kickboxing to develop aggression. TAA is too soft against opponents most times.
What you said about Nunez, you could say about Salah. Doesn’t score in the big games. But Nunez has actually won us more games from a losing position from the bench.
Rumours are Barca will go in for Luis Diaz this summer. Probably wouldn't stand in his way if he has his heart set on going there and Barca offer crazy money like they did for Coutinho. Liverpool also a bit light on their homegrown quota so I think Tyler Morton and Fabio Carvalho may be given a chance rather than being loaned again.
Barca doesn't have the money
They ain’t got that cash!
@@joethomlinson_ Tell the Diaz family that! I hope he does stay because after Salah he's probably our best forward.
60 mil for darwin would be a no brainer. I would almost ship him for free 😅
I have to ask the question of where is the consistency towards the other forwards when they miss chances?
I have seen Salah,Jota,gapko,diaz all miss chances but they get away from criticism?
Consistency is needed here.
If that is the case then all the forwards should be sold.
Also Jota is similar to Daniel sturridge because he can't stay fit. I would sell him personally.
A penny for Slot's thoughts on Nunez?
Yea i like this stay or go good video
All 3 of those managerial cautionary tales coached at Ajax and at the time when they would have been the easiest job in the eredivisie
It's a good point + all went into club's lacking the structure Liverpool have.
@@joethomlinson_ valid
excited for Slot to come to liverpool, any manager from Jurgen is a risk, if he does bring players from Feyernoord i would love Hancko
I agree with all but salah. Liverpool should really keep him. There’s not exactly many quality right winger in the market now, and there’s none, available or not, who is capable of the numbers salah produced in the last 7 years. Yes he’s getting old, but he’s still fit enough to play at the highest level. Even if the saudis offer liverpool 100m, I struggle to think who can really replace him. Sane and bowen are the closest, but their numbers pale in comparison to salah’s. I agree about selling nunez. If liverpool decide to keep him, he shouldnt be a starter. He can be a clutch player like origi.
12 months on his deal you need to get a new one signed then….
Liverpool fan here. Pretty good list. I would sell Diogo because what good is his finishing when he is never ever fit. Darwin I would sell if we could get half of what we paid.
Now do who they should buy
People comparing him to ETH and saying he will struggle really need to understand that there is a huge difference between managing a successful already established team at the top of the league (ajax, psv) and going abroad but failing, to managing a lower team, getting them to the top of the table consistently, and then going abroad.
good list
but i would sell diaz, he is just not efficent
and keep nunez. this season is already better as last. he is only 24. he will never be a shearer or van nistelroy, but he brings chaos like suarez
Salah has created the most big chances this season (22). In comparison KDB created (16).
Nunez has the most misses in Premier League after Halland.
The media is putting a hit job on Salah because of his religion. But he doesn't have a victim mindset. He just keeps grinding and fighting on. Absolute warrior.
We will be singing a left back. Robbo has turned 30 and injuries will get worse. Gomez maybe defends a bit better than Kostas but going forward Gomez can't cross the ball to save his life. I see the current leftbacks staying in place until we sign a 25ish year old new no.1 leftback.
As a football fan in general I don’t thing Nunez is a Arne slot type striker he’s not clinical in front of goal. I think he will bring someone with him from Feyenoord maybe Giménez
I'm not sure about this notion he will sign Feyenoord players. I would imagine all recruitment will be Edwards/Hughes driven.
If we sell Darwin this summer I''d love to see us sign Evan Ferguson from Brighton. Has a lovely first touch and a real eye for goal.
@@Red__Law be a good signing for you lot and one for the future.
Please do the same thing in FD We Need To Talk
You're watching it here haha!
That salah opinion is horrendous he should stay for at least one more year as even if u ask the other players they will at he is one of the most prominent players in the dressing room and he the main man for Liverpool undoubtedly if u ask me he is a definite keep for 2 more years on a wage cut of 10k or 20k
van den berg is 100% a keep... hes Dutch, and I think slot could use him this season quite alot...
Liverpool Formation Under Arne Slot is 4-2-3-1 Formation in Possession,Using A Midfield Double Pivot (One of them Box to Box Hard Working Midfielder)to Progress Certainly Through The First Line Of Pressure With No 10,Two Wingers and Central Striker,The Issue Is Liverpool's Resurgence. In Arne Slot We Trust
keep Jones and sell Salah? that is mad! Nunez vs Gakpo? crazy
Adrian is a keep. You’d need to buy another third goalkeeper otherwise which wouldn’t make sense. Adrian plays a bigger role in the club than people think, as a Spanish speaking veteran he isn’t really there to play week in week out, he has a big impact off the pitch (especially for non-english players like Lucho and Darwin) which will be very important with a new coach and new staff coming in!
As for Bobby Clark, Tyler Morton and Fabio Carvalho, I expect them to stay in the squad even though we’ve got plenty of depth in that double pivot. Loaning them out to a PL side to get experience could be good but Clark has already proven himself and deserves some minutes (especially in cup games) Morton deserves some minutes after his amazing season at Hull and Carvalho could excell in that 10 role under Slot.
Salah I thought the same a while ago, but since his talks about a contract extension I actually don’t mind him staying. There were starting bids of €100m from Saudi up to almost €150m and I thought SELL as quick as possible but him staying one more year in a new system could help our ‘rebuild’ and I’m sure Saudi won’t mind spending those 9-digits a season later. Also, I think Salah could have an interesting role in this 4231 not only as a RW but also as a 10 or even a 9.
And my biggest disagreement, JAYDEN DANNS! Instead of buying a new striker, I believe Danns will be that guy! Under Slot he can thrive in that 9 role. Technically gifted, great finisher, works a lot of the ball and just looks so passionate! Has it all to become a phenomenal striker. Slot puts a lot of trust in the youth!
If we do receive an offer worth > €75m offer for Darwin we could think about selling but I believe he could still be great and we should keep for atleast one more season. It’s a new head coach, new season, new style so who knows what’ll happen!
With the rest I completely agree, great content! :)
I struggle to see anyone offering more than 40-50m for Nunez tbh.
@@granth1238 I know. That’s why I said > €75m. I don’t want him to leave (yet). He’s got something to prove to a new manager in a new system and I’m sure he will. But yeah, if some crazy club goes on to bid over €75m than we should no longer hold on to him.
@AntJay-hp5gp He’s more than just a translator smh, older players are needed because they help develop youngsters with their experience and knowledge.
And there’s a difference between a third goalkeeper and a midfielder. Adrian knows he won’t play a lot of minutes, but he’ll be there to help others. You can’t just put Milner and Hendo on the bench all the time, we offered them to stay but they didn’t want to lose their game time to youngsters
@AntJay-hp5gp I did get your point tho… As I said, I know Milner and Hendo had to go because they wouldn’t get minutes. They shouldn’t have that role as mentor because they still want to play football. Adrian doesn’t mind not playing so he can have that mentor role. Plenty of players have adressed that the likes of Adrian and Thiago have helped them towards becoming better footballers. So Adrian does play a role in this team without having to play.
That’s something you can’t do with on field players, they need minutes, that’s why I said there’s a difference between a third goalkeeper and a midfielder.
When you look at all top teams, third goalkeepers are just experienced veterans 90% of the time. Because they still feel like they have a role but they’re not at the level anymore to perform at the highest level. You can’t put young goalkeepers as your third option and expect them to sit on the bench game after game. They need time to improve, that’s why players like Marcelo Pitaluga and Harvey Davies are on a loan instead of on our bench as our third goalkeeper
City: Scott Carson (38y)
United: Tom Heaton (38y)
Chelsea: Betinelli (31y)
Arsenal f.e. have a 22 year old as their third goalkeeper. He’s played 0 minutes for Arsenal this season which is bad for his career. I guess this was because Raya was on a loan but I expect Karl Hein to leave in the summer.
You did a good job. I would probably sell Gakpo though. He will score about weaker teams, but he will never win key games for us.
I think he's deserving of 1 more season under a new coach.
Big fan Joe not sure about it being impossible to get the ball of Curtis jones though 😂
I love watching him, maybe I'm too kind. But his physical ability to burst into space always impresses me.
I agree with Tsimikas
I think nunez gets one more season but cant see him improving
Salah will stay and will be back again with goals .remember that
I personally think Tyler Morton and Stefan Bajcetic may have more playing minutes in Slot's system as opposed to Curtis Jones and Harvey Elliot.
Fingers cross for Stefan he can stay fit...
@@joethomlinson_ There is potential for Stefan to be the first choice no. 6 next season as buying endo, as an older player, was partly to "not block the path for Stefan Bajcetic" to break into regular first team football
@@aulayf7739 agreed. Let's hope he can stay fit. 🤞
@@oneeightyfour last few months doing heavy gymwork and minutes with the U21's should help ease him back in
Time for Salah to move on I think the outburst at the weekend was enough to know the story is over for Mo
Its actually scary how bad some of the eredivisie players have been after coming to the Prem: Gapko, Gravenberch, Van de Beek, Janssen, Clasie, Depay, Van Ginkle, Bony, Weghorst, Antony, Bergwijn, Klaassen
Tbh as a eredivise watcher (and dutch guy) i didnt expect van de beek, janssen, clasie, van ginkel, weghorst, antony, bergwijn and klaassen to do good there. I expected bony really to be the next dorgba, adn he did good at swansea but that was it. Gakpo and gravenberch didnt fulfil their potential (yet), expected more. And I also expected way more from memphis.
But you know, there are also worldclass players like suarez, van dijk, martinez etc. and obviously the older dutch players like rvp etc that did extremely well
the majority of them were poorly man managed at united, too early to judge players such as Gravenberch as he is still only 21
I can't see Edwards/Hughes following the same track United did with ETH and giving him recruitment power, though.
bro wdym..... this is the first season for gravenbearch. he hardly gets to play matches. plus he is just 21. he is far from reaching his peak.
i think now is the perfect time to sell tsimikas and buy a young prospect left back. Robertson is 30 now so won’t play every game and that opens up opportunities for a young left back to play and eventually succeed robertson, also if he ends up not being good enough we always have gomez who has proved he’s a decent backup there then there’s 2/3 young left backs of our own who can do a job but i don’t think their ceilings are that high so maybe loan and cash in on them or use them as a backup when robertson moves on
Beck, Scanlon and Chambers are all coming through the academy, they can compete for that position.
@@Red__Law i’m not sure, ofcourse they could but i’m not relying on it, talents only tend to come out the academy every other year i doubt there’s multiple from the same age group
Do u think TAA should move to midfield?
Not in a slot system. That RB tucks in and it should suit Trent
Gakpo has proven to be best on the wing. As a 10, he isn't as potent. Yes we should keep, but keep Macca and Szobo in those 10 and 8 roles.
Danns on loan?! You gotta be kiddin' me?!
Szloboszlai is still only 22, he should be ok....
Whatever happens there will be a lot out and not enough brought in we are talking about FSG
Kelleher said he's moving on from Liverpool this summer
Did he?! When?
@@joethomlinson_ Rumours came out last season/ start of the season about a desire for more minutes, even if they came elsewhere, but he's never played more in a Liverpool shirt this season so I can't see a desire for him to leave
what about Carvelho?
Especially now we are in Champions League next year , Tsimikas ain't good enough. He's far from awful but there'll be a reason Klopp plays Gomez over him. I like him but he's probably Europa League standard at best
Who buys him?
@joethomlinson_ pfft. Not any Prem team I don't think. Can see some obscure team in Europe going for him. I wouldn't mind keeping him but for his career it's best to go imo.
Talking about Salah, if we receive more than a 100 mil offer, we have to sell him.
you should not sell darwin
this squad needs a lot of work? when everyone’s fit there’s arguably no weakness to the team, maybe endo isn’t world class but there’s only 3/4 dm’s in world football i’d rather have than him right now. The starting 11 of alisson, trent, konate, van dijk, robertson, endo, macca, szobozslai, jota, nunez and salah he’s multiple world class players then only 1 of 2 players who aren’t an 8/10 every week
No weaknesses? Not sure I agree with that assessment. It’ll be interesting to see how much Klopp is a factor in some of these players level.
@@joethomlinson_ like i said, there’s endo and szobozslai in our starting 11 that could be improved on that’s about it
Other than Ancelotti and Pep which are never gonna happen. What manager walks into that Liverpool team and continues Klopps level? A progressive/tactical coach is great whilst they rebuild.
Alonso
Jose Mourinho (dont have to explain myself, he's simply one of the greatest ever), Tomas Tuchel (has proved himself at bayern, has sufficient PL experience), Xabi Alonso (un-likely cuz he said so himself, proved himself in his first season at bayer leverkusen, world class), Unai Emery (very impressive coach, secured aston villa a top 4 finish in the PL with limited budget, world class coaches like pochettino, ten hag are far behind him on the pl table) and even Ruben Amorim who has proved himself at sporting this year
13:31 the disrespect on salah’s name…
How can you sell Nunez but keep Jota? Yes Nunez misses in infuriating moments but at least he stays fit to play!
Nunez is wasteful, Jota scores and delivers
@@zoltanobru9274 when he’s fit he scores. And he’s always injured
@@zoltanobru9274 Nunez has 1 more goal and 5 more assists this season
2 extremely different players.
As a Liverpool fan here's what I would change from Joe's answers:
Sell Kelleher - since we're expecting he will force a move. At this point in his career he should be starting for a mid table PL side, and he seemed to angle for a move last summer too.
Sell Gomez - not because he's bad but because it looks likely we will sign Geertruida, who, like Gomez, is a utility man across the entire backline. He's younger, better and more reliable. With him in the side under Slot he'll be getting a lot more minutes so we'd probably be better off selling Joe to another PL side for £40m or something like that.
Keep Carvalho - Part of the reason he's out on loan is he's an AM, Klopp doesn't use AMs. Slot does. Expect to see him rotate at AM with Elliott and Szoboszlai
Keep Salah - too good to sell even now. He's in bad form, but you wouldn't be saying sell based on his pre-injury performances. Yes he might be playing too many minutes - it's a good thing Slot loves to have a lot of wingers then. Salah will be rotated a lot more under Arne than Jurgen which may preserve his performance levels for longer in the long term. I agree if we get £100m offers we should consider selling, but we should squad-plan without the initial intent to sell.
Sell Diaz - his family is angling for a move away, he's on a lot less money than other first teamers and while he's been great, he still hasn't met expectations. We can get a large fee for him and use it for the rebuild. Additionally, Slot will most likely use Gakpo as a left winger, so Diaz may want to get more minutes elsewhere
Keep Doak - he was getting PL minutes this season. Slot loves to use and swap wingers. A definite keep as he might be the long term heir for Salah. The reason he hasn't played much is a serious back injury.
Keep Danns - because I think we should sell Darwin, and he's already too good for the championship.
I'd agree with most of these, just probably cash in on Salah and I'd agree on selling Diaz, but tbh I'm not sure they'd get decent money for him. I struggle to see a team pay more than 40m for him, he just doesn't offer enough and had a few injuries now.
Shocked at the idea of selling gomez when you take more points with him starting than without him starting & Diaz too!
Agree with everything except Darwin,still believe there's a brilliant striker in him
Lol why you talk about Salah like this?
He’s for me among the top 3 greatest premier league players of all time.
And He’s still in his prime and can cock for another 2-3 seasons.
one thing some of the recent dutch coaches have lacked is pragmatism. unless you're pep, you need pragmatism to succeed in the premier league. not everyone can be an ideologue
liverpool have a great squad. let them play
idk if it helps to spell it out like this but Arne Slot's first name isn't pronounced "Arnie". more like "Arneh"
