We were quite prescient, actually.
You know, based off the fact that we just walked into studio and news had come through that Ibrahima Kanate wasn't signing out.
Liverpool was kind of emblematic of a general drift where they haven't nailed down some of their starter players.
And this much heralded football executive isn't all they're cracked up to be.
Little did we know that a few hours later that Arne Slade was about to be relieved of his duties, having the briefings out the wazoo the previous weeks where, no, we're sticking with our man, you know.
They backed him against Salah, they backed him in all these different instances.
And then, as you said at the top of the show, this little Saturday news dump, like right before the Champions League final.
Because I would have...
like the briefing from the club one of the first sort of tidbits that emerged was that Richard Hughes isn't a regular attendee at Anfield and I'm like well my number one question is why isn't he?
But also he went to like the Brentford match and the Chelsea match where it was quite a sour atmosphere and you know the match going fans will dictate a lot and it obviously had turned on slot a
much earlier than the month just gone and I see a lot of people kind of getting ahead of the story now to your Alonso point that ah well you know as much as he's a club legend that style of football is very slot like they actually want to go back to the more heavy metal approach and that is more Areola but what Alonso's legendary status would afford him is patience from the fans and time Areola's not going to get that like if he can't replicate what he did at Bournemouth
Ironically, if he'd done it in reverse, if he finished fifth last year and won the league, he'd be getting a new eight-year contract.
Yeah, Arne Slott actually had an open letter to the Liverpool fans, which is worth checking out, kind of took it in very diplomatic fashion about how the whole thing played out and alluded to things we talked about, Will, on Friday regarding Diogo Jota and the incident at the parade when the car... It was very Troubles post-season for them last year.
So interesting to see where Slott ends up.
And also just on somewhat sombre note as well regarding...
Liverpool Kevin Keegan and even today Kenny Daglish revealing diagnoses of ill health and he's very sad like obviously the Kevin Keegan when I was reading a bit more depth yesterday because it was a great interview in the Daily Mail with him and just like a real legendary figure I think the Sparknotes Premier League years version of him is the famous interview on Sky but like had a wonderful unique playing career that he probably doesn't get enough credit for so um
Somehow beloved by the football universe at large, even though it can be so tribal.
You mentioned his dealings media-wise and the England managerial stint.
The way he resigned from that job was just so Kevin Keegan as well.
It's like, look, it's a good job for someone, but it's not going to be me.
