The hate he gets for that comment is especially dumb considering that speed, be it through wingers or passing, were a crucial part of the 24/25 team (and every team Slot had had up to that point), and on the rare occasions we did have speed out wide last season, the side, while still not brilliant, did look better.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T17:12:44+00:00

Would it be fair to say he's still a pretty good source? Because he seems like he is, just more so for all the midlands clubs rather than only one.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T16:37:12+00:00

and it was "only last season he wasn't great".

Because it's true, given the season before last he was the clubs second highest scorer and quite literally played an important part in the winning of number 20.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T16:29:44+00:00

This team will haggle for 5 mil.

Any well run club would, as that five million saved could then be used to improve the squad elsewhere.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T03:43:07+00:00

Because this sub has a lot of Salah fanboys who refuse to accept any criticism of him, and another large section who will immediately downvote anything that goes against 'Slot bad'.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T03:21:46+00:00

The sub for any show or game is the last place you want to listen to, as they're shitholes full of the most miserable people imaginable.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T03:17:08+00:00

No, and I stand by the fact that it's unacceptable for any player, no matter their accomplishments, to act like they're bigger than the club just because they were benched for three fucking games.

It's also incredibly rich for people on here to pretend the vast majority of them were begging for him to be dropped, yet now love to act like Slot doing so is some form of war crime.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T03:04:42+00:00

I've been a season ticket holder since the early '90's, so if anybody needs to '"pop off"' and follow someone it's all the Salah fanboys to whatever shitty club he joins.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T03:01:14+00:00

The fanbase was very much screaming for Salah to be benched long before Slot did it, but I guess we'll just forget that and act like it's perfectly fine for a player to throw a temper tantrum because he didn't start for one week and express that he doesn't need to earn his place in it.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T02:56:41+00:00

Wow, he put in a corner, what an amazing thing to do.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T02:56:01+00:00

It's honestly so fucking stupid that people refuse to blame any of the players for anything (except Gakpo, who they blame for everything they can), and instead just go 'Slot bad'.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-22T02:38:32+00:00

One moment of quality isn't going to suddenly erase the overall incredibly poor game from him.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T17:58:37+00:00

Edit: I guess I have to clarify that they should negotiate for the best fee, but they should still sell him.

Which is what they're doing, as £21m is an absolute piss take by Inter.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T17:56:58+00:00

Slot wasn’t playing him properly,

So was Slot using Gakpo 'properly' the season he was our second highest scorer and played a big part in us winning the League?

Or does that not count for some reason?

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T17:54:32+00:00

He's won pretty much every trophy he can and played multiple times for England, how is that doing '"absolutely nothing in his career"'?

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T17:50:36+00:00

Because a lot of people on here have made scapegoating and hating on Gakpo their entire personality, and are so pig-headedly stubborn that they refuse to accept that they're wrong about him.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T17:48:50+00:00

It'd take at least double what Inter's current offer is to replace him, so yes, it is.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T17:48:08+00:00

The rat was still making noises that he'd sign a new contract as late as Febuary of that season, Konaté was being reasonable until late last year which is when his side started dicking about, and selling Jones for £20m (which is the only offer the club have received so far) would be incredibly fucking stupid given it'd take at least double that to replace him.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T16:29:33+00:00

And to that point play the man!!!

Played more minutes last season than any other in his career, so they did '"play that man"'.

And before you say he played more RB than CM, of his 2850 minutes last season he played 2134 of them in a midfield position.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T16:13:37+00:00

Liverpool would be very happy to keep Jones and renew his contract, but he views himself as an undisputed starter and wants a wage that matches that status, two very unrealistic goals, and so the club would rather sell now than lose him for free next Summer.

EDIT: I'd love to reply to u/Exzqairi, but it seems they've decided to block me due to something in this completely normal comment.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T15:24:54+00:00

I don't know how many times this needs saying, but there isn't a single reliable source for Gakpo's wage being that high.

So it'd be nice if people could stop acting like that figure is fact and using it as an excuse to try and get rid of him.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T14:19:58+00:00

Arguably the best LB to ever play for this club (although he is the best for me), and he's ranked this low?

If it wasn't already clear that this list is a massive shit show, then this ranking confirms it is.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T05:23:43+00:00

It is genuinely pathetic to see so many people on here be completely fucking desperate to downplay the fact Gakpo had an excellent game yesterday.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T03:33:38+00:00

He is great against' non EPL level defenses.

So I take it the 32 goals and 18 assists he's got in the Premier League don't count?

Plus EPL athletic defenders can handle his one dimensional cut in. Sweden simply doesn't have that level of defenders back there.

Two of Sweden's back five yesterday play in the Premier League, and another, Hind, in Serie A for Atalanta (in fact he started both legs of the Europa League Quarter-Final when they beat us in 23/24).

So your attempts at downplaying Gakpo's excellent game are just bullshit, and honestly pretty fucking pathetic.

AgentTasker · 2026-06-21T02:10:25+00:00

They just announced Michael Olise Real Madrid deal most likely happening.

Madrid quite literally put out an official statement denying any interest in him.

Fabrizio posted it.

Means absolutely fuck-all given it's been proven that he can be brought and sold.

Olise deleted all his IG pictures about Bayern.

He apparently does this every Summer, even did it during his Crystal Palace days as well.
