    Perhaps the offer of a private flying palace for the team to get around in.

    I think a case could also be made for Espírito Santo, to be fair. But nobody would bat an eyelid if Slot were to get it

    Bradley is good ,hopefully he's able to stay fit next season. Frimpong looks interesting, very attack minded. Between the two some very different options for Slot.

    I know a lot folks liked Adam Cleary. His new YT channel has some nice Liverpool content - especially about replacing Trent. You can see why we want Frimpong. He and Bradley are gonna drive teams crazy.

    I will read it soon, but I wonder does it cover his spitting incident and how after that he basically became a sky sports puppet?

    kinda yeah.
    what surprised me, not watching Sky at all, is how much he's basically taken over from Neville. he's Sky's top football guy now apparently.

    Red Bird Capital acquire interest in The Telegraph ....

    https://www.theguardian.com/media/2...bird-capital-agrees-to-buy-telegraph-for-500m

    RedBird Capital – which holds various investments including a stake in the parent company of Liverpool football club and is seeking to jointly acquire the TV and film business Paramount – is buying Telegraph Media Group from RedBird IMI.

    The US private equity group contributed a quarter of the funding to RedBird IMI, with 75% funded by International Media Investments (IMI).

    I was watching in a crammed-to-the gills pub - slipped out of work early, then at HT thought I might be best off if I slipped back in to the office :)

    then had a word with myself and stayed.

    as the teams came out at the beginning I said to myself "just make us proud lads" which thought had never passed my mind before (or since).

    wow. just wow. when Shev missed the last penalty I must have been quite a sight - very large middle-aged man in business suit and tie jumping up and down trying to break the floor screaming my lungs out.

    fantastic memories.

    Arne Slot believes his Liverpool players can take inspiration from Bruce Springsteen as they aim to repeat the success of winning the Premier League next season. The Dutchman went to see the Boss behind enemy lines in Manchester on Tuesday night to witness a masterclass of a different kind.

    Liverpool will be awarded the Premier League trophy by Alan Hansen after their final game of the season against Crystal Palace on Sunday. The next challenge for Slot will come when his players return for pre-season training on 8 July and the Dutchman waits to see if his squad can build on the glory days achieved during his first season in charge.

    “You talk about elite mentality,” Slot said of Springsteen. “This guy’s been doing it for 50-odd years and he’s still putting on three-hour shows in front of 25,000 people. I’ve heard how he does this, what he does in his daily life, talking about habits, how disciplined he is to achieve this. Springsteen, at 75, is still able to do three hours on stage without even one minute of rest. He took three or four drinks of what I assume was water.”
    Slot has admitted to wanting more from Trent Alexander-Arnold during pre-season and hopes his players follow the example of Mohamed Salah in the summer, who was born to run and finished top of the fitness charts on day one under the head coach.

    “One of the reasons why you play at a club like Liverpool is because you have elite mentality, and you have the mentality of a serial winner,” Slot said. “But sometimes as a manager you have to help them a little bit to inspire them, or to be hard on them, or to compliment them.

    “I’ve seen this already with Mo Salah, I always give him as an example, because last season he was number one when we had this [fitness] test in the league and that told me a lot. That’s why he’s for seven years already at elite level. And if you look at all the elite players in all different sports, they all say the same. If you want to be a serial winner, it’s just about consistency in your discipline throughout your whole career or your whole life.

    “Last season many of my players, and myself, hadn’t won the league in England. A few of them only had – now they’ve all won it. Now let’s see how they react.”

  17. Can't you find someone with a optical drive to rip it for you and put it on a hard disk?
