Hvordan kan du ikke være nervøs for returkampen mod AM.
Lige pt er vi ude og vi skal frem og score 2 kasser for at gå videre.

Scorer de en heldig kasse, så skal vi altså score 3.

Jeg synes da i den grad vi bør være nervøse for returkampen og krydse hvad der krydses kan, for at drengene stepper up, for det de viste i Madrid var da ikke synderligt
imponerende.

Thy87: Jeg kondolerer
Spillemæssigt har vi lagt stærkt fra land i 2020, dog med en mindre nedgang de seneste kampe og vi var i den grad på hælene mod Wolves, indtil de fandt det ekstra gear, som Goldie beskriver.
Har faktisk syntes at VVD har set træt ud de sidste par kampe og en pause bør overvejes før returkamp i CL.

Dam, Thy. Det gør mig oprigtigt ondt at hører.
Som andre siger har vi måske ikke leveret klasse bold men bare lige hvad der skulle til for at vinde. Kampen mod atletico undtaget.

Enig. Jeg er også noget bekymret for, at Atletico kan blive endestationen i dette års CL. Scorer de et udebanemål, er det noget rigtig lort, for det er sgu op ad bakke at sætte tre basser forbi den rød/hvide bus, de kommer med.

Wham scorede to på Anfield i sidste runde. Atletico er et meget bedre hold. Jo, jeg synes nok, det kan være grund til at krydse alt, hvad krydses kan.

Ser den som 50/50. Vi vil formentlig dominere kampen og skabe chancer. Men bare ét mål- så er vi fucked...

Jeg er også noget nervøs for at returen kan være endestationen.

Alle hold plejer at have et eller flere formdyk i løbet af en sæson. Vores kan meget vel have vist sig i kampen mod Hammers, spørgsmålet er så om den fortsætter på lørdag, eller det var et meget kort dyk.

Tak for info ! :) Ja en god dag som LFC fan, selvom man ikke kan nørde i selve regnskabet endnu. Men overskuddet er væsentlig højere, end hvad der har været fremme. Det er faktisk det højeste overskud af de PL klubber, der har fremlagt regnskab for 18/19. Så når man kigger på, at man havde det største netspend i klubbens historie, så er det faktisk ret imponerende at overskuddet er i den størrelses orden. Men top4 placeringen og CL triumfen hjælper naturligvis meget på, at omsætningen er steget med 17%. Først og fremmest er det glædeligt, at de kommercielle indtægter er steget med hele £34 M., men i det hele taget er der jo fremgang på alle fronter, både på banen og udenfor. Det er sgu svært at få armene ned i øjeblikket, osse selvom vi skulle ryge ud til AM :)

Lidt fra James Pearce :


Liverpool’s success on the field has been accompanied by record-breaking revenues off it with the club announcing a pre-tax profit of £42 million.

The accounts for the year to May 31 2019 show that the now European champions’ turnover went up by 17 per cent — a £78 million annual increase to £533 million.

During a season which ended with Jurgen Klopp’s side winning the Champions League and finishing as runners-up in the Premier League, media revenue increased by £41 million to £261 million (up 19 per cent), commercial revenue by £34 million to £188 million (up 22 per cent) and match revenue by £3.5 million to £84 million (up four per cent).

Most of that cash has been invested into a squad which stands on the brink of winning the club’s first domestic title since 1990.

Figures show that Liverpool spent a club-record £223 million on players. Klopp made four major signings in Alisson (£65 million), Naby Keita (£52.75 million), Fabinho (£43.7 million) and Xherdan Shaqiri (£13.75 million). The Athletic understands that total of £223 million also includes agents’ fees and one-off costs related to new contracts.

During that period, Liverpool offloaded the likes of Emre Can (free transfer), Danny Ward (£12.5 million), Ragnar Klavan (£2 million), Dominic Solanke (£19 million) and Lazar Markovic (free), while they also received a payment from Barcelona in relation to the £142 million sale of Philippe Coutinho.

Eleven players signed new deals and securing the long-term futures of stars such as Roberto Firmino, Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Jordan Henderson, Andy Robertson and Trent Alexander-Arnold did not come cheap.

The Anfield wage bill climbed from £263 million in 2017-18 to £310 million in 2018-19 — a sharp rise of nearly 18 per cent. It remains at around 58 per cent of the club’s turnover of £533 million. Champions Manchester City’s wage bill for the same period was £315.6 million — 59 per cent of their turnover of £535 million.

Liverpool’s financial health is underlined by the fact they made a hefty profit while also significantly reducing their debts.

Their net bank debt was slashed from £46 million to £12 million, while their intercompany debt is down from £100 million to £79 million. That intercompany debt relates to the £110 million loan owners Fenway Sports Group (FSG) took out to finance the cost of Anfield’s new Main Stand, which opened in September 2016 and boosted capacity to 54,000. Liverpool have repaid in excess of £30 million of that capital.

The success of the stadium expansion is highlighted by the fact that annual match-day revenues have climbed from £62 million to £84 million since it was completed.

That figure will rise further if Liverpool are granted planning permission this year to redevelop the Anfield Road Stand. They recently unveiled revised plans for the £60 million project which would add another 7,000 seats in time for the start of the 2022-23 season.

The latest accounts also include part of the £50 million outlay for the club’s new training complex in Kirkby, which will open its doors in July. The full cost will be spread across three financial years.

“This continued strengthening of the underlying financial sustainability of the club is enabling us to make significant investments both in player recruitment and infrastructure,” says Andy Hughes, Liverpool’s chief operating officer.

“Being able to reinvest over £220 million on players during this financial period is a result of a successful business strategy, particularly the significant uplift in commercial revenues.

“The cost of football however does continue to rise in transfers and associated fees, but what’s critical for us is the consistency of our financial position, enabling us to live within our means and continue to run a sustainable football club.”

Liverpool’s financial landscape has been transformed under the decade-long ownership of FSG.

Overall revenue stood at £301 million for 2015-16, meaning that in the space of three seasons that figure has shot up by 77 per cent to £533 million — aided significantly by back-to-back Champions League final appearances.

Liverpool sit seventh in the Deloitte Football Money League but look certain to climb higher. In terms of the Premier League, they have closed the revenue gap to Manchester City (£535 million) and Manchester United (£627 million). With United facing a hefty drop this season as a result of their absence from the Champions League and Klopp’s men on the brink of title success, Liverpool are well placed to leapfrog their great rivals.

Commercially, Liverpool have cashed in on the impressive progress of Klopp’s side.

Led by managing director and chief commercial officer Billy Hogan, they signed a lucrative training kit partnership with AXA and secured a further nine partnerships with Intel, Levi Strauss, Lavazza, Mitel, NH Foods, Nord VPN, PB Bintang, Tigerwit and Verbier.

Commercial growth has continued in the wake of winning the Champions League and the imminent Premier League title celebrations will increase the club’s appeal still further. A five-year kit deal with Nike starts on June 1 that will bank Liverpool £30 million per season as well as offering royalties of 20 per cent on all net sales of merchandise. If various bonuses are triggered, Liverpool believe it will be worth £60 million-£70 million per year. Their existing deal with New Balance is worth £40 million per year.

The club enjoyed a record-breaking 2018-19 season in terms of retail sales with footfall surpassing a million fans in official LFC stores. Their international expansion plans gathered pace with new initiatives in Malaysia and Thailand as well as new selling channels on Amazon in the United States, Canada and Germany. E-commerce orders were shipped to a record 190 countries worldwide.

Digitally, the club’s global social media followers increased by 26 per cent to nearly 70 million. Liverpool’s official YouTube channel reached 2.5 million subscribers, making them the most followed club in the Premier League. Their Twitter following also increased by 11 per cent to 13.5 million and reached 59 million total engagements during the 2018-19 season — six million more than any other Premier League club.

“What we’re seeing is sustained growth across all areas of the club, which is aligned to the recent performance on the pitch,” Hughes says.

“Since this reporting period we have continued to reinvest in the club’s infrastructure and we look forward to the opening of our new training base at Kirkby ahead of the new season.

“We have also just completed a second phase consultation on a proposed expansion of the Anfield Road Stand which could see an increase in the stadium’s capacity.

“There is more work to do and, importantly, we will continue our dialogue with all key stakeholders including local residents, businesses and community groups.”

Vi kan kun blive enige om, at det er op ad bakke lod Atlético Madrid, og det havde været sjovere at føre 1-0 end være bagud 1-0.

Jeg er ikke nervøs for kampen men spændt. Det er et defensivt stærkt hold, og du lukker ikke mange mål ind, men de lukker trods alt mål ind.

Vi slog Barcelona 4-0 sidste år, så det her er jo ikke umuligt. Jeg tror der venter en konge opbakning på Anfield, hvor vi sætter Atlético under massivt pres. Et pres de ikke kan holde i 90 min.

Jeg håber naturligvis at du har ret, men Barcelona er immervæk lettere at score imod end A. Madrid.

Flot regnskab. Især set i lyset af de enorme investeringer der er foretaget.

Er det rigtigt forstået at de 800-900 mill fra CHL sidste år ikke indgår i dette regnskab ?

"Liverpool´s financial health is underlined by the fact they made a hefty profit while also significantly reducing their debts."

At gælden er reduceret bør vel ikke påvirke resultatet eller hvordan skal ovenstående forstås?
