    And a lot of people would argue it's been happening for years already. We did it with Henderson prior to Salah.

    All I've said is that it sets a precedent, which is a simple fact.

    I agree. I thought his first interview was ok. Nothing sensational, but nothing to complain about either, imo.

    Well I would argue that your definition is incorrect, but have we really descended into word games to try and win a debate now?
    I'm not getting into that, so I'll put it another way: If you give one player x amount of money, you open the door for others to cite that example when they (or rather their agents) are looking to get the best deal that they can.
    I really don't know why I'm getting involved in this, tbh - it's a waste of time. I think I've said enough.

    Slot didn’t say we won’t win in his interviewing so you’re just making stuff up

    I never said he did. Not once.

    I said IF he does he will be a goner.

    Now onto actual matters.

    Jones is the latest poor lads who's been the next one to get a load of speculation started.

    The lad was laughing at the end of the press conference and said what he thought was off Mike.

    "I thought they were going to ask me about trent" like ha ha.

    And off they go with speculation.

    He knows something.

    Trent is signed

    He knows trent is going

    Instead of the natural ha ha I wasn't asked an awkward question that I'd have to bat off boss.

    And IF he punches Kenny then I can’t see it going down too well either.

    Your post suggested he had said it. Otherwise why mention it?

    He also never said that Hodgson was a better manager than klopp. He also didn’t say that Diouf was a better role model than Kuyt.

    Can't get into this season yet,only watched a bit of Slot and got bored and switched off.Think he's a stop gap manager at best but would be happy to be proved wrong.

    It clearly says if but whatever.

    It's a point on how to speak to lfc fans that's all. I think the vast majority know and agree that Hodgson lost support when he made comments of a defeatist nature

    Tbf mito didn't say Slot said we won't win. He said if anyone coming in says that, they won't last long. I read shades of Hodgson into his comment and the low standard he seemed to set.

    We were talking about what slot said in the interview and how he came across and then posted comment saying that.. implied to me like was suggesting he had said it.

    even so, no point posting the things he didn’t say in the interview and hypothetically judging him for something that wasn’t said.

    Well I said I had said "if" twice like.

    He clearly hasn't said anything like that and I was only saying he shouldn't if he wants to keep the supporters happy..

    There's a reason why some people strike a cord with the anfield crowd. Honesty or effort and honesty of character is a large part of it.

    Klopp made us all believers that the club could be more than an also ran again.

    Slot has to keep people believing.

    Very often things are said on here that are ambiguous. This isn't one of them. I don't know how you could read what was said and come to your conclusion and I'm someone who disagrees with mito a lot of the time. <laugh>
    But, if you're seeing it that way then you're seeing it that way ......
    (You seem a bit feisty today )<whistle>

    Because we were talking specifically about the interview and what was said and Mito then said the below. No ‘if’s’ as claimed so when making comments about what was said during the interview and how I didn’t mind what he said and Mito saying he didn’t like what he said, he then mentions about how managers shouldn’t be saying something. To me given what we were talking about and the fact no where in the comment below does it say ‘if he had said’ then I assumed it was made as a statement.

    Anyone - point has been made and clarified. No one has said we won’t win anything.

    I liked Slot’s interviews and think he’s come across really well. Others didn’t and don’t like him. It is what it is
