I was half joking. Closed doors is already happening elsewhere though.

Yes I can see it happening here - got to be at least a 50/50 chance I'd have thought.

If they did would they then stream all games free on sky/amazon wherever?

Plus no winners homecoming parade due to the banning of large gatherings of people.

I'd guess that by the end of the season the likelihood of that is very large if we are to believe where this virus is going in terms of numbers infected.

I said that a few days ago. A number of countries already have measures in place. I'm not sure why we would be different.

If we actually win it I will completely agree with him.

Related, I have a friend of a friend in Formula One Management and they're planning that at least 50% of this seasons races will either be cancelled or raced at empty tracks.

Very interesting 45 minute radio interview by Colin Murray with Klopp from December. Informal - not that much actually about football - and definitely worth a listen.

Really interesting. I'd noticed that we have done a lot more speculative buying recently, players that probably won't make it at the Club, but probably will be worth more in a few years. Creating value from player's desire to take a risk at a big club.

Yea, I'm starting to think that the likes of Harry Wilson, Chivrella, Brewster, etc have mainly been bought with the expectation we'll be able to sell them for £10-20m and help fund the buying of ready-made players. In fact, the only youth player we have at the moment that I think has any hope of seeing regular first team football is Elliott.

Largely due to age. The raw materials are better than Williams from what I can see.

Totally diff players but Williams has st loads of potential, he hasn't looked out of place at RB

Dont think he looked too hot against Chelsea.
Not sure he has the pace needed.

Can excuse lack of defensive awareness.
