As a rival fan, I wish Salah would leave the quickest. This man is my biggest fear when facing Liverpool. People can pretend they don't rate him but we all know he is the biggest threat

[johnorange]

All 3 are a priority but if LFC wants to win in the next few years it needs to tie down Salah and VVD. Those 2 are absolutely integral.

Salah doesn't only score, he assists and drags defenders away from others. Trent may assist a couple of goals but he leaks more due to his bad defensive ability. VVD is good for a couple years more.

My favourite comibation of host and pundits for sure.

[stan]

For me, by far Salah, VVD then Trent.

Such a fantastic discussion on young footballers struggles and knowing when to quit yet the comments are focused on the stale caption.

Love to hear Craig and Stevie's banter

[ulfanfinneriksen]

VVD is the most important of the three. Liverpool can play Diaz on the left. Jota on the right and Nunez through the middle. They still have Gakpo too.

[Teal.Baboon]

Get them all in the same room and discuss it 😊

[HungryWinnebago]

That question about youth players was handled really well by Craig. Really great message to the youth. Keep trying, you never know what might happen!

[sambhrantabashyal]

What an insightful session from the boys

[dkhollister]

Not completely sure why but I found all the stories about the young players who became homesick and/or never quite made it fascinating

[kaynine]

I wish I was still living in Aberdeen....

Salah, Van Dijk and Trent have been the faces of Liverpool for years now 😂

[jonathanluk]

We should just pay all three of them since they’re going to be club legends and embody LIV

[waggna]

They should continue with whoever wants to stay for the club, not the money and prestige, and for whom they dont have a 1:1 replacement

[nozztheking]

They should give both of them the boot 0:30

[PrakharTalksSports]

Maybe lack of activity during transfer window means that Liverpool are keen to give fresh contracts to all three

[G-nf]

Salah first because he’s the team’s best player when it comes to goal scoring not to mention he’s the most consistent.


Then it’s VVD because he’s the most experienced of the defenders although I do think they really need to start to looking for his replacement.


Then lastly by a large margin it’s TAA

Why?

Because as much as he is an offensive force for the team he’s is a major defensive liability and because of that they can do without him.

[toadftm]

I think Salah and Virgil will stay as long as the results keep the way they're going, but I can see the temptation of Real Madrid being too much for Trent to ignore.
