    They play out of their skins for us when wearing the shirt

    While they are our players

    The transfers weren’t international and most players were English, Scottish, Welsh or Irish back then

    Dom could become a liverpool legend & future captain or...sit on Madrids bench. That's his choice but I hope he chooses the former. Madrid are a shithouse club on the level of man city. Dom needs to look at how its turning out for trent but these players seem to think they are the next galacticos

    Dom is not a prisoner, he can do as he wishes. I believe he loves Liverpool but time will tell.

    On the shithouse clubs…

    Worth remembering - he had a great point:

    "Financial Fair Play is a fraud of a term... It’s built to make sure that clubs which do not drive significant revenues cannot catch up." — John Textor, Crystal Palace co-owner.

    All clubs are shytehouse clubs IF they can get away with it.

    I took a few close ups of the Shankly Statute outside the Kop.. He would terrify F$G

    Where to start with that rambling mess? From Dom to FFP to Shankly to FSG. All in a few lines.

    It's quite a nice strawman you built there. Nobody claimed Dom is a prisoner. He is however contracted to play for LFC if you want to view it purely as a transactional relationship. Even in a transactional sense it's disrespectful to be working for one club and publicly "dreaming" of another.

    Speaking of Shankly, I wonder what he'd make of LFC players publicly proclaiming their love of Madrid?

    Wow you are proving to be quite the idiot aren't you.

    No player, wishing to remain...would dare speak like that with Shankly OR Klopp around.. The very fact it's occurring the proof of what so many connected to the club are so deeply concerned about. The erosion of the holy trinity NOW effectively destroyed by the Head coach setup.

    Here’s an LFC legend, one a few were hoping to be moved on in January... and he’s still playing for us.

    I took this on the walk up Anfield Road to the ground. Something told me he was going to have to a good game.

    That second goal. Watch it again and again. Mo Salah might have lost some pace and at times the drive - but that cushioned ball for Dom. Made it a relatively simple finish in truth. High ball from Cody to Mo with defender covering - very few players make anything of that. Mo - tricks them all with pretend control …and plays the most delicious cushioned ball onto the deck for a finish most pros have to make. . Superb goal but one superfine ingredient makes it.

    Don’s international manager said he has said this, when we don’t know, a private conversation he likely didn’t expect to be disclosed.

    Is he running through brick walls and coming out fighting on the other side for us?

    Yes

    It is embarrassing to see players in a red shirt speaking in this manner whislt under contract.

    Jude Bellingham declined to comment on all the Trent talk at the CL presser, out of respect for LFC.

    We're at a point where players at Madrid have more respect for LFC, than many players who play for LFC.

    As said, I'd put any of them in the reserves and instill a culture of respect for the club.

    So Dom & MacA would not play a professional game for LFC again were I Slot. Effective immediately.

    Until summer 2028 their only professional football games would be international football.

    If they want to play for LFC again, sign up.
    If not, try and get Madrid to provide a fee for their transfer.

    As long as they are doing the biz when they pull on the shirt, they can say what they like.

    But I do think we need to more aggressive when players only have a coupl eof years left opn their contracts. We can't keep getting to the situation we've had for VVD, Trent, Mo, Konate and now seemingly Szobo.

    The problem with your solution CCTV is that we'd struggle to sign anyone, when they know that it's going to be a difficult situation after 2 years.
