What is the point of contracts these days ....

Hard on the player because he might not get that chance again but he has a contract and has to understand the reality is we would not be able to replace him this sunmer Wishful thinking. Coutinho has a trump card. He can just stop playing.  In which case Liverpool save themselves a lot of money when they don't pay his wages for breach of contract !

That's an international team event, not a club tournament though so they cant play in it

Who could Liverpool replace him with.

Agree with your general point ("bullsh*t" etc).

But the problem could be with the other 10 players, if they feel they're having to carry a passenger who doesn't want to be there and is just taking the piss.

Back to business today, and I feel Liverpool are not ready for the start of the campaign. Two major targets look like they will be missed and our most valuable player looks destined to leave.

The squad that travels to Watford today is by no means capable of challenging for the league this year. Looks like the bench may consist of unproven young talent once again. This is not good enough. There was 3 months to prepare for this day and we look well short.

Now we have throw in European football on top of all that. It was clear that we needed numbers in in order to deal with this season and that is yet to materialise.

Consolidating our top 4 position would be a good season. Looking at the squads of the top 6 or 7. I don't think Liverpool's is one of the best 4

Today is the typical game Liverpool struggle with. So let's see how we start, as if we struggle today that trend is likely to continue

Well well well. Where do you start. Opening corner of the season and guess what we concede so easily. Second goal was a comedy of errors. So all in all nothing has changed over the summer. Liverpool will have to score 4 or 5 to win this game now as Watford are highly likely to score again.

Defence has been woeful. Three lads in midfield are not creating a thing although can did well for the goal. Firmino been awful. Salah looking rusty with mane looking like the only man who can do something.

Then there is the bench. Nobody really there who you would fancy to come off and turn the game for us.

Will do well to walk away with 3 points here against a very average team

Business as usual lads...
