I thought the whole thing was hilarious. The only thing that could have been better was the 98th minute Everton goal being a winner and actual fisticuffs instead of handbags.

2 match as it's his second charge this season.

2 matches for Slot because it was foul and abusive language.

Waiting to see with his assistant whether he gets 2 as well.

Coach in charge at Wolves and possibly us.

Given he's had about as smooth a transition that it's possible to have in new job, he's been a prickly twat once anything has gone against him. I'm still of the mind we'll see what he's really made of in a bit of adversity, and I suspect he'll turn out to be an absolutely classless knob.

Van Dijk gobbed off to distract from the fact he let Beto wander off for the first goal. It’s funny the way Liverpool fans think he’s the greatest defender ever, like God, Maldini, Baresi, Beckenbauer, Moore etc never existed.

Cheslea (Jackson), Arse (Havertz) and Forest - to a lesser extent (Awoniyi) - have striker issues ...
... whereas Villa used the loan system to back up their front line!!

Liverpool next season will be interesting with TTA, VVD and Salah all nearing the end of their contracts.
if I was them I'd let all 3 go as they are run on a finite budget and I just don't think they would represent good value. Both Salah and VVD are over the hill and soon will be over any new contract, now would be the time to cash in on Salah. TTA is patently not good enough against the very best and a flat track bull against the also rans.
But they are a sentimental bunch and I can see them keeping at least 1 (VVD) and possibly Salah.

How do they "cash in" by him leaving at the end of his contract?

Statistically having his best season I think they said last night, and looks like the best player on the league right now.

But if they give him what he wants he'll end up their best paid player precisely when he is on the wane.

Fingers crossed they will, but they've been annoyingly good at fucking off players just as they're going to pot, Mane in particular.

Yep, it's mad to think it, but it's probably sensible to shake his hand and wish him well.

Salah over the hill??

he's 33 in june, he'll want a 3 year contract, so little value at the end of that. He's having a good season no doubt but seems a risk to go all in for another contract if you ask me.

Still doesn't explain how Liverpool cash in on him, VD and TTA though as that normally means sell them.
