Frimpong once again proving that he isn't it. Pack him up, and frankly send Wirtz with him the way he's playing at the minute.

Modern day Del Boy and Rodney if it was cast today. Amol's coat and the height difference is doing a lot of the heavy lifting. #TheCelebrityTraitors

Lots of european competition women’s football overnight but I want to draw your attention to this epic defensive effort by Hearts in the UEFA Europa Cup. Haven’t seen such a siege defence since the Siege of Orleans in the 15th century.

Michael Oliver is doing a great job of blocking passing lanes...

Grav is being far, far too casual. Hasn't he learned anything whilst sat on the bench watching Mac A?

This ref is awful. Genuinely an embarrassment to his profession, and that's saying something.

This new ten seconds rule to come off when substituted doesn't really allow for a grand goodbye to a club legend at the end of the season. Hopefully common sense will prevail should Van Dijk leave at the end of the season and be substituted with four minutes to go at Anfield.

It's not about immigration and never has been. It's just racism. The more ground we cede to this idiocy, the worse it gets.

The ref is looking right at this and doesn't give the foul despite it being clear and obvious, and VAR also doesn't bother. Great process, guys. #LFC

Notable that Iraola hasn't changed the back four tonight with subs, even with Kerkez on a yellow. You have to imagine his is the back four for Atlelético next week. #LFC

Wirtz has to stop losing the ball. He's got to be better at protecting it. He always seems to want too much time and space.

#LFC have now seemingly sunk to Ipswich's level and it's a stalemate. Fingers crossed LFC up it to kill this game off.

How much of his shirt does he have to have!? #LFC

What was Szobo doing!? #LFC have started this half poorly and need to wake up. They're coasting again.

Jacquet is just daydreaming a bit. He needs to get into this second half or changes have to be made #LFC

Gakpo gets cleaned out after he passed that. Absolute stonewall foul #LFC

Has Mac A been unleashed in the 6? Being a bit of a midfield general organising things? Would be great to see. #LFC

I've been doing some more research into this. Here's the weighted squad age of all teams in the top five leagues across a full season ('51-52). Now some isolated teams look fine, but for so many to have an average squad age weighted by minutes in the 30s+ is nuts.

Having turned over to the Test, I really want England to declare and bowl on this with it doing absolutely loads and going along the floor every now and then. If Brook is finding it hard work, there's no way the Pakistani batters are going to be able to cope against our attack.

If you're an optimistic type: #LFC have played poorly and not lost in the last two games If you're a realist: LFC have played very poorly and look a long way off challenging for anything If you're a pessimist: LFC are awful in every respect, and our DoF doesn't know what he's doing.

Get in Munoz!! What a thumping shot that was! Let's go #LFC

A FM Old Timer @afmoldtimer.bsky.social · 29/08/2026
Szobo to right back. We've seen this before. Unfortunately, we've also seen Rio at RW, and that's not it either. Is Iraola sending a message??

FINALLY! Really well done from Gakpo, and good to see Isak is still awake #LFC

Munoz is actually dumb. Why are you fowling and picking up a yellow there!? You're about to win a corner! #LFC

Liverpool are pressing as individuals and not as a team. No wonder they're getting picked off. This doesn't look like a team at all. #LFC are just letting the Forest midfield boss the game with loads of time and space.

Have to say it's been coming. Liverpool aren't at it at all

Macca and Szobo have clearly been told to sit, but it's almost working against #LFC because Forest have realised this already and are using this against them. There's no connection between the two 6s and the 10/F9.

A FM Old Timer @afmoldtimer.bsky.social · 29/08/2026
Half-arsed press from the forwards and it's straight through us again because #LFC are still open/soft down the middle.

Drop Cherki because he didn't start... Ødegaard better do something special. Already bought him back for next week for the -4pts... #FPL

Are #LFC just replaying transfer window targets of old now? Has someone found some old analysts reports from 2-3 years ago in the office whilst Hughes house hunts in Saudi?

Yankuba Minteh has shown flashes of brilliance and put up huge dribbling numbers, but lacked end product during his time in the Premier League. Does he really have Salah-like ability? Or does he have serious limitations? www.thetransferflow.com/p/what-is-ya...

What is Yankuba Minteh's ceiling?
The Brighton winger has been linked to Liverpool for up to £80m.

Curious as to whether we are seeing a change when Liverpool do their transfer business within transfer windows, so I produced this. This includes major signings (so far) that have played/will play notable first-team minutes. #LFC

I've created a spreadsheet to enable more detailed player analysis using player radars for different positions, which could help you to identify your next signing in #FM26. This is a 'How to guide' which will demonstrate how to implement and use the spreadsheet. Reposts appreciated.

The Art of Data Analysis in FM26 – Position Radars
There's a certain type of manager who doesn't fully trust a scout's star rating or a recruitment analyst's A+ verdict without knowing why it's been given. If you're the sort of player who'd rather look at what someone has actually done on a pitch than what their attributes tell you that they could do, then this post is for you. …
