Although you wouldn't think so, judging by the comments of some fans - we have made steady progress towards the future in recent years with a few mostly well-judged transfers of established players and the introduction of promising young talent.
I feel that the club is in a much better state than it has been for decades - from the top-down. My biggest fear is whether or not we can maintain the continuity after Klopp leaves.


Yes.. we've made few signings but quality signings. A far better approach than the scattergun approach of decades past.

Innocent until proven guilty but looking purely at statistics. Between just 2 and 10% of sexual assault accusations turn out to be false. (Depends on your source) ... But even at the high end... Statistically someone who is accused of sexual assault is overwhelmingly more likely to be guilty.

Now... That's for everyday people. I don't know if for famous people the false accusations are more common or not, but just looking at Bissouma with that in mind he would be a terrible risk.

Even if its ONLY 80% chance he's guilty, far better for the club to cast sights elsewhere.

Statistically, everyone as been involved in sexual assault during their life time...

...also, 67% of statistics are made up.

I think Pep Ljinders seems well versed in the Klopp Way. He also comes across as very likeable and knowledgeable. If he were to take up the reins, I would have a lot of confidence in his leadership.

100%. As much as we love to moan I think we all agree that recruitment has been top notch. Maybe not got as many in but we could be like Everton or United where we sign players who aren’t an improvement and then never play for us.

We very much have our targets and if we can’t get them then we get no one. Can be frustrating for fans but in the long term is definitely has worked.

Also been a nice few windows. We all knew our league and CL winning squad was ageing and not going stale but always a risk and we’ve freshened that up with some youth. Elliott, Jones and Kelleher all come up from youth. Konate is 22. Jota was 23 when signed, Dias is now 25. Our back line and forward line look well set (minus any departures) for next 2/3 years easily.

Midfield is the 1 area that needs looking at next and wouldn’t surprise me if we made 1 first team signing in summer in the 23/24 age range plus Carvahlo.

Would leave us with Elliott Jones Carvalho as young options. Fabinho New signing in their prime then Thiago Hendo as older senior pros. Then what ever happens to ox and Keita.

Is it possible that he might extend his contract? Christ, I hope so.

Assuming minimal air friction/resistance (which for something the weight of a combine harvester it should be negligible).

Any Combine Harvester can reach 60mph in less than three seconds.

... If dropped from a height.

If RHC had drunk enough that day he could have been horizontal and mistaken a falling Combine Harvester for one going horizontally along the street.

It was being pulled by those snails though.
