I think time will tell that Trent made a huge error and Diaz didn’t.Does anyone think that in another year Trent going to Madrid and Diaz going to Barca would be seen as a disaster for us and more of a kick in the teeth considering we're the Champions of England?
Yet I just get this underlying feeling that it's a bit of a blessing for Slot because neither really fitted into his vision for the team. I could be wrong, they are both great players but both are flawed as we well know.
There’s a big assumption there that a new attack automatically means better. While I trust Slot there is every chance the new attack doesn’t click for various reasons.We're building a new attack. We won't get worse. Maybe as a player for player with Diaz (though I dont think thats likely), but as a team we'll be much better.
God I had such high hopes for him.I've heard Jordan Ibe is nearly ready

You can’t just say we won’t get worse. Last season was one of our best attacking seasons in years.
We didn’t even try for the last 4 games and played a much more pragmatic style where we didn’t continually chase goals.Its not given the development of the team and new additions.
We scored the same amount of goals in Klopps last season btw.
I'm prepared to be persuaded but I fail to see how selling Luis Diaz improves us.
I think he scored 17 goals last season.

Bar a couple of exceptions there is a strong case to say that most of our best players will decline next season from this seasons level.
Of course the new players could raise us even higher but to say it will happen so confidently is extremely naive.
We won a lot of games by 1 goal this season and everyone else was rubbish.
To think we will just kick on is nuts.
It’s his work rate and attitude - Liverpool fans can forgive a lot of shortcomings if those 2 elements are right and they ARE right with Diaz.I’m surprised how much allowance Diaz is given sometimes compared to others, all because he is on 70k maybe?
His stats assists wise aren’t great and never have been from what I remember, him and his dad have been bent over for Barca for over 3yrs, that video of him and Nunez swooning over Saudi money was a disaster and blatently had never or was going to ever going to extend.
Sell all day for me, happy to risk his 14 goals and 4 assists or whatever for someone who wants to build a future for us.
I do see it’s not same as Trent but for me, he can fuck off now. Bored by his 3yr courting of Barca, I can’t see them offering his full value though.

It does make more sense for him to play out left a la Coutinho.
Didn’t he have his best games playing more central behind the other 3 in the Fab 4?
Well he was completely lost at Inter where we saved him for 8m, and though he was one of our star players there wasn’t any demand for him from top teams until he started playing under Klopp. And even that was because of Barca panicking with the Neymar sale.That’s very true - I thought they played longer but the Fab 4 really only had 14 or so games together -
It’s funny - I can’t remember much about how we played between when Suarez left and Salah - for very good reason, I suppose given the flashback names of the forwards we employed during that period!!!
BMS 1 (1 yr Before Mo Salah) I presume Coutinho played left, Bobby central and didn’t Mane start on the right for us?
BMS 2 Coutinho would have played on the left - that was… was it when Rodgers couldn’t figure out what to do with Bobby and stuck him on the right so he could have Benteke in the centre.
Prior to that, I can’t remember where Coutinho played left mostly - I think it was left, but we would have had Sterling, Sturridge, Rahem and Suarez all sort of floating about in those years.
I’m choosing to forget, Borini, Lickie Rambert, Aspas & Balotelli ever played for us.
Fuck me… in retrospect I’m surprised Coutinho’s back didn’t go years earlier.
