Now we’re talking!
BTW that Croatian GK of Las Palmas looked impressive on the highlights.
I really hope Bajcetic becomes part of the first team picture next season. He looked so promising in that spell for us.
needs more Bajcetic:

Las Palmas want £100 mill.

From the DOF’s perspective, bringing Bajtetic back and making sure Slot gives him a fair chance to stake his claim is the only right move. He has 2 years left on his contract, if you leave him for another year to marinate in La Liga you’re almost guaranteeing he will walk away for free in 2027 or in heavily cut-price deal in 2026.
Only if he’s back in Liverpool and getting regular minutes a contract extension looks realistic. What does Bajtetic have that emotionally ties him to the club? The manager who gave him his debut is gone, not many of his youth team mates remain - we need to give him a reason to stay and that can only be a chance to break into the 1st team at Liverpool.

I know it's only a record of all his touches and you don't always get the context to those touches but there isn't anything there that makes me think he is ready to play in the premier league.
He is keen on jumping in too which could get him in trouble in a quicker league.
I am just not seeing the hype at all.
Not that I am claiming to be much of a judge
I don't know about all that. True, you can't judge his whole performance by watching a compilation, but it still shows glimpses of class imo and it's also against one of the best teams in Europe.
I agree he looks promising but what happened at Salzburg is my main concern. He should be owning a league like that if he wants to play for us.
He’s proved he can play in the Premier League already, I think, at 17. Hopefully that year of development missed through injury will not hamper his career long-term. He was probably still playing through the rust at Salzburg, but he is looking back to his old self at Las Palmas - they now have momentum to stay up and if he can anchor them to staying up he’ll come back full of confidence.
A pat on the back must go to Nat Phillips for this week's loan watch.
The cult hero struggled to make the first XI under Paul Warne at Derby but since John Eustace has come in, the former Liverpool defender has been a mainstay.
And Derby are looking good for safety now after their 3-1 win over promotion-chasing West Brom on Easter Monday. In the last 10 games, they have won five, drawn two and lost three - which is decent form for a relegation-threatened side.
Phillips has been at the heart of that but his side have a huge six-pointer on Saturday at Hull. That game is 20th vs 21st and a win would be huge for Derby.
But another loan to the Championship for another Liverpool star is not working out. Poor Kaide Gordon has played just 296 minutes all season across stints at Norwich (terminated in January) and now Portsmouth. He has not even been in the squad for the last three Pompey games.

"former Liverpool defender"... Is he not on our books anymore?
Lets not kid ourselves...
You're right but, but he'll be out of a contract when he returns
I think he's our most promising u21 player.
This thread should probably be renamed “Bajcetic watch.” No one else comes close in terms of being ready to play at this level.
Pity about Doak and Dann's injuries. Koumas got restricted to mainly substitute roles since Feb too. Wasted season for Gordon given both failed loan moves to Norwich and Portsmouth.
Outstanding performance. Can't ask for much better a compilation from a match than that for a defensive midfielder.
Alvaro Montoro, he is 18 with contract ending in Dec 2025 so should cost peanuts

I think you're being generous.
I considered the dates of the posts too. Took a while for him to get going.
Ah right.
Slow and lack of physicality.......Slot's gonna love him.
I guess that's the difference, as always, between getting enticed over 2min clips and people who watch their side for 100mins week in week out.
