Three reasons why Elon Musk owning Liverpool would be a terrible idea

Liverpool: So, there’s been some chatter about Elon Musk possibly buying Liverpool. Sounds cool, right? But honestly, it would be a total disaster.

First off, where’s this coming from? Well, it’s Elon’s dad who’s been talking about it, claiming he knows some Beatles through family ties. Not sure how many he thinks there were, but okay.

He says Elon is “obviously” interested in buying the club, which is valued at a whopping $5.4 billion. That’s pocket change for Musk, but still, it raises eyebrows.

Now, let’s get real. Musk and Liverpool? They’re like oil and water. The current owners, FSG, are all about capitalism, but Musk takes it to a whole new level.

It’s like selling the club to Mr. Burns from The Simpsons. Musk has done some pretty wild stuff, like opening a factory against local rules, which led to a COVID outbreak among workers.

Plus, he’s got ties to the Trump administration. Liverpool fans might not be too thrilled about that, considering the city’s vibe. There’s only room for one right-winger at Anfield, and that’s Mohamed Salah.

And let’s not forget Musk’s temper. Remember when he tried to help with that cave rescue? He ended up calling a rescuer a “p–o guy” on Twitter after being told his submarine wouldn’t work. Not exactly a team player.

Sure, having more cash at Liverpool would be nice, but it wouldn’t last long if Musk started hiring private eyes to dig up dirt on critics. That’s a slippery slope.

FSG has done a decent job hiring experts and letting them do their thing. But Musk? He slashed Twitter’s workforce by 80% and took over everything himself. Imagine him trying to manage Liverpool!

He loves to talk about things he doesn’t get, and that’s not what the club needs. Honestly, it’s probably best if these rumors stay just that—rumors. Liverpool doesn’t need Musk, and he’s definitely not welcome.
