First things first, welcome to the new gaffer Andoni Iraola Here is a detailed video breaking down his tactics if you are into that sort of thing








Looks to be another summer of turnaround while we lose some starters and hopefully welcome a handful of new signings


Confirmed Outgoings
Mo Salah
Ibou Konate (signed with Real Madrid)
Andy Robertson (signed with Tottenham)

Confirmed Signings
Jeremy Jacquet (CB from Stade Rennais FC in France)
Victor Munoz (Winger from Osasuna in Spain) Highlights


Too many rumors about other possible signings, although seems pretty likely we are at the very least looking to add 2 attackers (1 being Munoz), a midfielder, and rb cover. Yan Diomande is the big prize we are chasing this summer, an extremely talented 19 year old winger from Leipzig. News came out earlier today that our first bid for him which was nearing €100m was rejected by Leipzig. Really hopeful we can get it done as PSG has been rumored to be interested as well


Will keep this OP updated throughout the summer as more news breaks and once the season starts I'll use the OP to list upcoming fixtures and times

Highly recommend taking a second to read this players tribune article written by Diomande about his late sister. Heartbreaking and makes me want him to be a Red with huge success even more!

In!

New faces expected in attack. Some new defenders. Hopefully some of the young CBs step up.

Still need more bodies at several positions.

Looking forward to a more aggressive style.

An intense Liverpool squad is a competitive Liverpool squad.

Fully expect us to start slower with less chemistry because of new signings and World Cup absences, but this team should be MUCH improved over last season.

IN - I’m excited to see how the new coach changes the team. Bournemouth was a fun team to watch last year.

I hope Wirtz switches to a new gear this season and unlocks our offense.

It is incredible what my excitement level is with AI is and what it would be playing the Dutch game. I think we are in for a big year and that little Fabhino trick we just pulled with Vic has me nostalgic.

Is the Yan Diomande dream over now that PSG is set to bid for him?

Rumors on ESPN of Wirtz potentially moving to Chelsea. I’ll be disappointed if he leaves after one season.

Are we hoping Gakpo continues to play well to increase his market value?

Any other outgoing players this year? Likely Jones, Endo, Gomez, and Chiesa.

What is the status of Bajcetic?

With Kavra, Dembele, Barcola and Doue... I just dont see wing as a need for them.. especially at the price, but who knows...

I would have to imagine all other things roughly equal, the player would feel he can step immediately into Mo's spot in the line up...

I hope.. would love to replace him with someone who can play more centrally with Hugo likely lost for the season... We've been linked to Matias Fernandez-Pardo who can play left or through the middle..

I think now is the time to sell Macca if we have a suitable offer...
