If Liverpool were to get Isak - what a sentence - maybe Slot could replicate his colleague, Van Gaal, and make a 343 diamond when the Reds attack? VVD, Gravenberch, Konate; Mac Allister; Szoboszlai/Frimpong/Bradley/Jones, Kerkez; Wirtz; Ekitike, Isak, Salah
❌ Alexander Isak has NOT travelled with Newcastle to Singapore 🇸🇪 Striker still nursing minor thigh injury #nufc
Could he play LW? In Frimpong/Bradley and Kerkez, Liverpool have the full backs to play a narrow front three
Ekitike viewed as versatile forward who can play at number nine, but also out wide or as second striker. Will join up with new team-mates in Hong Kong. #LFC still monitoring developments of Alexander Isak at Newcastle
Isak and Ekitike will be playing in a 442 but the contract says Liverpool FC
Exclusive 💣 Liverpool won’t end Alexander Isak interest even if Hugo Ekitike was to sign. #LFC have told Isak they will be waiting for him once he or @NUFC have made a decision on the next steps. Isak desire was to join #Liverpool @LFC want to act with respect & class.
Diogo Jota is now immortalised on the Liverpool website squad list, under the category “forever”. What a beautiful touch. ❤️🇵🇹 #fblifestyle #lfc

Great to catch up with Shane Lowry as he bids to win another Open this week ☘️
For this week's #SliceofLife we caught up with Shane Lowry ahead of his tilt at history at The Open this week in Royal Portrush. Read about it 👉 golfireland.ie/news-detail?ne…
Once again, this is basically how it worked. We sold him, kicked up a gear, massively increased our revenues, and now have more money to spend on players.
Sometimes you just gotta stand up and applaud excellent transfer deals when you see them. Liverpool sold Coutinho for £142m to Barcelona. Since that they’ve spent the Coutinho money on £75m Van Dijk, £70m Alisson, £85m Darwin Nunez, £130m Florian Wirtz and now £130m Isak 👏👏
🚨💣 EXCL: Liverpool made club to club approach with Newcastle to discuss record bid for Alexander Isak. ❗️👀 If Isak won’t be available, Liverpool can enter Ekitike race. Decision up to Newcastle as they never wanted to sell Isak + offer new deal. 🎥 youtu.be/xEeTig_2bR8
Mac Miller's "Best Day Ever" has officially surpassed 100 million streams on Spotify 🏆
Keenan and Hansen doing their test hopes no harm, especially the latter, who is in the thick of it all
Think the first goal epitomised him as a player. Took the most economic route to goal, in a typical substance over style manner. At his best, he was devastatingly efficient
Diogoal ❤️ Remembering our number 20 with every Diogo Jota goal for the Reds.
The 21st Tipp point was given as a wide on the pitch but the point went on the scoreboard.
#LFC set to start their pre-season schedule on Tuesday. No decision on if Preston North End friendly will go ahead yet, and won't be until after players and staff are consulted. PNE are planning tributes to Diogo Jota if Liverpool fulfil the fixture. 🔗 liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football…
A tribute to Diogo Jota in the NRL this morning. #Diogo
