Plus Liverpool manage to get “buy back” clauses into some of the contracts of the players they sell :shock: They've also covered Diaz leaving Bayern for Saudi Arabia with a sell-on clause. Hughes/Edwards looking like some partnership. Yeah, was reading the other day about the Diaz negotiations with...

Absolutely. Think it will be Ryan and/or Clarke by the middle of the season. Jacob's got some pedigree, looks like he needs a little time to settle in. Hopefully a full week's training will do him good. Appreciate I'm in the minority, but I wouldn't be averse to Garcia playing there again. Particula...

Abrefa (and Elliott) were our best players against Lincoln. Some of Abrefa's distribution wasn't great, but he had a very decent game. Dorsett wasn't brilliant, and TBH Jacob's 15 minute cameo wasn't overly convincing. Very early, of course, but not sure our left-back issues have been fully resolved...

You have to say, for all that's wrong with the EPPP in the way it disadvantages smaller clubs, fifteen years after it started it really is working well and producing some real gems. The problem for future England managers is likely to be how to pick from so much talent and blend it together, rather...

Rio Ngumoha is the name. Not yet 17, he has been lighting up Liverpool's pre-season friendlies, including a brilliant solo goal against Bilbao yesterday. Looks the real deal. His touch as he runs with the ball here is astonishing. https://x.com/CBSSportsGolazo/status/1952401930916921481 He played i...

Played right back in Liverpool's first friendly match against Athletic Bilbao last night.

Difficult to say without seeing Doyle in action, but Elliott is the only player in the middle who travels with the ball. It was light and day after he went off on Saturday. Hopefully Doyle can do that, as realistically there's little chance of Elliott of playing 30+ league games this season. Other t...

They start 2 hours before KO. They go when they're full, but it's rare to wait more than 10 minutes. Generally every 5. Last one leaves about 1/2 hour before KO, but I've caught one that left at 7.40 midweek, and got there in time.

Thought both the away and third kits looked great in the flesh last night. Macron really have been excellent, by far and away our best ever kit supplier.

I wasn't sold on the media dude when he joined - but I've been impressed. Lots more content, and crucially it's far more open, we'd have never heard anything apart from rumours re:Knibbs/how many more we want in a few years ago. He's clearly been given reasonable licence to ask the big questions, a...

Love Knibbs. He's been a brilliant free signing, works so well in our team, 25 goals, excellent with the fans etc. But you can't turn down £2m+ for a player in the last year of his contract. That's exactly the sort of transfer strategy Reading should be following. No doubt that money was going to be...

The Guardian has us down as playoff hopefuls.

Signed for Burton Albion.

I'm going to this one, but not expecting much with our new team of strangers and no goal threat. If we get away without a total trashing I'll be happy, having booked trains - leaving early in disgust at half time will mean a detour to the pub. I'm not sure if we can be bothered to see the Imp in th...

200k transfer fee being reported. Clearly too rich for us :roll: Nice to see we can't compete financially with a club whose statue our fanbase had to pay for... Were we 100% definitely even in for him? Also hes from that part of the world, so every chance even if we have/had matched or even bettere...

On general sale now:

Adult £24
65 & Over £21
18 to 22 £21
12 to 17 £15
11 & Under £5

Looks like Bolton have reduced the prices now it's a midweek on Sky game.

Sign Diaz for €45m. 103 games and 29 goals. 3.5 years later sell him for €75m. Hats off, that's superb transfer business by Liverpool.

Really not a fan of the BBC Berkshire football coverage at all, so I get that people dislike Ady et al. But the former players’ Q&A evenings are excellent and Ady is a very good host. He really did push Ruben on several contentious points and got answers. Hopefully he’ll do the same with Rob. Wi...

Orion1871 Adie is actually quite good at these evenings. He asked some pretty good questions to Selles at that q&a and actually pushed for answers.

Whether he'll be any good at getting a lawyer to answer questions is debatable though.
