        Mak, I thought you already were aware re Trent and Ali duration; thus my post last week re Kelleher. I feel different about it all. Different synergy amongst the group of guys stepping in and taking ownership.

          (apologies for the meandering post but I think it’s worth reading)

          I think I told you that I was diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago. A lot of things make sense after, but ya, I can kinda skip elements of text when Im reading sometimes.
          Feels a bit weird to bring that up but look, it’s just something that happens. it’s annoyed many a friend πŸ˜›

          I will say that this is a very long time for us to be without Alisson.
          I will speak highly of Kelleher as a backup keeper but I know he’s not fully developed. I think we’ve kinda stunted his potential a bit if Im honest.

          what I don’t get is how a kid can step into the shoes of Alisson at all.
          here I am calling him a kid but he’s 25.. wow.(I just looked it up because I thought… we’ve had him a long time).

          it’s so weird because I kinda feel bad that we’ve kept him from realising his potential. Klopp said it best when he said that “if Ireland has a better keeper…” and he’s right but he’s not playing for a first team except for now.. and he basically won us the carabao Cup.
          The thing is, it’s not the first time…

          Has he actually won more cups than Alisson? I think he might have.
          So we’re keeping this guy back, offering him a pretty amazing chance to win silverware.
          I nearly said that he wont ever win a league title, but he’s helped us win a few PL matches already.

          Alisson is the best keeper in the world, right? Like this is generally accepted? .. Kelhher has to come in and cover for this guy. Any mistake can cost us dearly..

          he has to face man City soon. he has to step up and cover all these huge games.
          I just don’t know how he does it.

          Nil, Im not going to sit here and tell you that some of these games wont get away from Kelleher, but he is a backup keeper and Klopp might actually be serious when he says that he’s the best backup keeper in the world.

          I say this knowing that something will probably happen in the games to come, that remind us about the world “back up”.. but he won us the LC.

          I could never stand up to the amount of stress that a backup keeper has to take. These people are truly special. this is your mentality monster.

            Apologies for waffling there a bit but that final reminded me about my love for the game.

                Klopp’s hand has been forced no doubt with the injuries though I believe everything happens for a reason.

                The way the ‘Business Model’ is more than ever for the Big Clubs in Money is that you have millions of pounds sitting on the bench as your back up.

                We have been in rebuild and transition and I would assert Scaffolding is still in place. Lots and Lots of players if you think after our 2022 Triumphs to now (It’s kinda where it all started (Sadio Mane!)).

                Mac Allister, Endo, and Zobo True Hats Off.

                I’ve always cried in the past in principle in relation to the Model that the there is a Cycle of the Youth from the Academy (or signed up from elsewhere) is given the opportunity to be unleashed and blossom.

                This has manifested through circumstance and almost in an abundance that’s so far given us none other than JOY.

                Our senior Players are Essential in Absolute, but from everything delivered from our kids, this will not be dismissed and forgotten.

                  Mo should definitely be available for Sunday. Sparta Prague First. Kelleher has been exceptional, but my vehement points on him raised is not to fault him alone but the circumstance he is in. He has played a lot of Matches. Alisson won’t be back till the end of the month.

                  It’s a testament that our defenders are back to the levels they once were in Van Dijk and Konate. They have not let up since Arsenal.

                  Bradley too has been a sensation. We have asked a lot of Gomez and fair play to him. Our Midfield are coming back slowly which we will need. So much appreciation goes to our so-called fringe or squad players that have stepped up week in week out. Harvey Elliot being one of them. Could be a telling week this week.

                  I don’t know how, but I’m pretty sure, we’ve occupied that Top Spot without being taken off it for lots of weeks. That may well change, but that should inspire us to go for all 3 points. It’ll be a rocking Anfield.

                    Salah is back in full training, or that is my understanding of it. I guess that means that he’ll start versus City (as long as things go well). Just hope we don’t give him too many minutes against Sparta. I am sure our sports science/medical staff will know exactly what to give him t4o best condition him for what will be a very tiring match against City.

                    Is anyone else shitting themselves over the City game though?
                    I’m very worried about it. I have a horrible feeling that we’re just going to be too weakened for them but on paper, we should have a pretty strong team (considering).

                    I’d use this first leg against Sparta purely to rest those who are tired and to help returning players gain fitness.
                    We should be more than capable of winning the entire tie in the 2nd leg.
                    Issue I hadn’t thought of is that this is a plane trip that players like Salah really could do without.

                      I threw a 10er on Nunez to score 2 times. Ya, kinda mental but the lad is getting better and better lately. plus when I saw the team we have out there. I was only worried he’d be taken off before he got the 2nd…

                      itsa still not saying that I’ve won the ebet though, even though I absolutely have.

                      threw 20 on us to win both halves also.

                      with Salah and 2 others to come on and push for match fitness, I think we’ve a good chance

                      seriously, how good has Kelleher been?
                      I think the defense has got to sharpen up a bit because they are getting too many chances. Kellaher isn’t going to keep them out all night. Good thing we have a huge cushion though, but still… One goal could light the stadium up.

                        Not had time to post much lately; crazy working week.

                        But what about that for a Statement Victory?! Not only for Europa, but this Weekend. Nunez: Second Season Syndrome haha. I’m simply hoping no injuries. Kelleher oh my goodness; words hard to find beyond Outstanding.

                        Macca physically is a beast.

                          I know that you lads and probably most Liverpool fans all look to Endo as our best midfield signing this season but it is Mac Allister for me. He took a few games to find his feet, and it’s really fair to note that he was being played as a 6, getting used to that and a new team at the same time…

                          He has come on leaps and bounds though. What a player!

                          As for the team though, great performance alright. I just hope Konate is ok.
                          Tszboslazi got one hell of a workout there. He needs that shar3pness as you could well see but he was really pressing for a goal. So, himself and Salah got a very valuable run out, with Sunday in mind.

                          As you say Nil, just please no injuries and I think we’ve used this match as great preparation for the City game. It gives me a little glimmer of hope to see so many of our team now back and seemingly ready to go.
                          Kelleher has been sensational in covering for Alisson.
                          I really don’t think it’s fair that we keep him anymore though. We’ve got to let this lad go and be a number 1 for another PL side, he’s good enough, and we should get a fortune for him at this stage.
                          i think we’ve kinda turned him into a bit of a late developer, because he hasn’t been getting as many first team matches as you’d expect from a player his age. Of course, I guess we’ll see what post-Klopp looks like. If Alisson were to ask to leave also, then obviously we’d want to keep this lad and sign backup, right?

                          it would be a big step from here alright and he might have some patches in there, but I think he’s that good.
                          I’d obviously still prefer that we had Alisson in there for the City game, as that is going to be a monumental task for him, and looking at the chances that our defence gave away in this win, I think I see a lot that City will bury, so we’ll have to step it up there, but Van Dijk should start there, and his special brand of hearing style defending will be useful.

                            New structure in place. Will we get the final piece in the summer?
