  1. The last week he hasn't been giving any confirmation that we are done. He's just said we will see. It's possible.
  2. I don't think it'll be Fekir, too pricey for somebody with injury issues. I'd love it to be Pulisic but he's cost s fucking fortune and I can't see us spending another 60/70m this summer. I think it'll just be somebody to pad out the sub options, somebody totally out of the blue.
  3. A nice 3-1 win tonight. A good pre season, sets us up nicely for a confident start. No major injuries, new signings looking handy (Keita & Shaqiri the stand outs so far). I'm optimistic, but I'm not getting carried away. Still think we'll do some more business IN before the window closes.
  4. Surely we wont sell both who would be out backup? Bogdan???
  5. Just shows you the difference though. Klopp is like "clyne had a baby, we were happy for him to go. There's more important things than football" then go to sour chops..."martial had a baby, but he should be back here with us not and he's not" Mourinho is gone by February.
  6. Pizarro has signed for you lot again....performance based contract.
  7. Shaqiri played well, it's the most running I've ever seen from him. Looks to have taken on the right attitude straight away and in his celebration seemed well intergrated with the rest of the lads. Somebody who continues to do well is Sturridge. I'm absolutely happy for him to stay and try and fight for a place. He's worked hard in pre season and it's the sharpest I've seen him in the last 3 year's. Van Dijk just looks a beast everywhere on the pitch, really wish he was captain.
  8. Impressed by the team work on display tonight. Running like a well oiled machine. I'm also backing Shaqiri to be a hit.
  9. Teso went quiet fast. I know utd were missing players but your squad depth is terrible. Another thing, all our players were playing with the same philosophy. Regardless whether it was Salah & Mane or Ojo & Sturridge, the same quick pass counter press football that Klopp loves. Utd didn't have anything going on, their players looked like complete strangers towards one another. Nice result and encouraging stuff in general. Pereira & Shaqiri goals were great.

    I get 10 weeks with full pay at my job, so that'll run out on the last week or two of my sick note. I'll be going back to work in September. So for me it's worked out for me well.
  11. It's so far beyond a joke now I can't find the words to aptly describe the state of the situation. Mike Ashley is a fucking fat, greedy pig and it's disgusting that the FA are sitting back and letting him ruin a great club like Newcastle. There should be sanctions for his treatment of that club. No signings, making less money commercially than a decade ago, sitting on a shit load of prize money. When you've got clubs like Fulham (with a third of the stadium capacity and nowhere near the fan base) spending 30m+ on a player and then your only buy this summer is a goalie for 3m then it's a fucking laugh. Feel so sorry for everybody having to endure that fat bastard, hopefully some oil baron gets his hands on you lot.
  12. I'm maybe misremembering, I didn't see the replay, just in normal player
  13. I'd say that's barely an error. The shot came is so quick he did well to get a palm to it, 90% of keepers do the same. But obviously, it's now magnified.
  14. What mistake did he make? I was only able to get a stream working round the 55 min mark.

    Oh I know exactly what you mean with everything. I've had the same issues that you've listed there. Its sods law that when you lose most of your mobility that you start needing a piss in the night. Before all this I always slept through but then all of a sudden I needed two pisses a night .

    Jus Only just turned 29, so you can imagine how much more frustrating it is to have issues like this.

    Well, I suppose I'll update the situation with my back. Turns out I had two slipped discs. I couldn't get out of bed on my own on the last couple of days leading up to going into A&E. Went in and had an emergency MRI, and it showed that I had two slipped discs and they were pressing on the nerves that control my bladder (I could barely manage a dribble even when pushing till red faced...apologies for that image). They put me straight in an ambulance and rushed me through to Newcastle Hospital for emergency surgery. I went under at 9pm and didn't wake until 3.30am, and the doctor said later on that morning that it turned out to be a very difficult surgery. So I went in the friday and finally got home the tuesday night. Ive basically had to learn how to walk again over these last 3 weeks, my legs have been so weak and I'm still struggling with stairs and in general walking round like a 85 year old man. But the numbness and pins and needles are slowly but surely dying down. Honestly, although I hated the general feeling of being in Hospital, I can't praise the staff enough. From the Nurses, to the general staff in there; they all made my stay as welcoming and comfortable as possible. So yeah, I'm off until the end of August. I reckon that'll be enough time to recover for a return to work. I've made a load of progress in 2.5 weeks so another 5 should be more than enough to get back to near full mobility, I hope.
  18. "We don't care what the world around us is thinking," Klopp said. "Like Manchester United didn't care what I said." The German added: "It is only an opinion in that moment. Did I change my opinion? Yes. That is true. But it is better to change your opinion than never have one. "We have the players we want." There you have it folks, like most humans on earth have done sometime in their lives, he changed his opinion.
  19. But Coutinho was 145m wasn't he. So we were in the black by 70m, plus the VVD fee was also made up by transfer fees from other players we had sold, him signing wasn't reliant on us selling Coutinho. This is such a ridiculous argument anyways, I don't get the point being made? We as a club are not bankrolled by our owners, unlike City & Chelsea in the past. We spend our revenue, and even then the net spend per season under Klopp has been very low compared to our competitors. We have made progression under Klopp, whether you lot like to see that or not, and we've done it by being smart.
  20. He's far from negative. He's just not a delusional knob who eats up everything Liverpool as if it's the best thing ever. Sometimes we do shit, sign shit and the club makes shit decisions. Every club is the same, and there's nothing wrong with pointing it out.
  21. I think he was probably a little concussed but let's be honest. He fucked it up because he's young and he didn't handle the pressure of the game. It's not because he's a shite keeper, because he's clearly not shit. If he hadn't of made those errors on the biggest stage then I'd be happy with him as our first choice this season, but I think it will have massively affected his confidence and every rival crowd are gonna be on his back.
  22. Yeah, the fella that said that is a wanker. Klopp has to be looking at a GK, HAS to be, surely?? Why not somebody like Sommer from Monchengladbach? He won't break the bank and he's a fine keeper for Karius to learn from.
  23. Yeah, I like the lad but only as a number two for now.
  24. Justice League - N/A Got about a hour or so in and switched it off. Load of absolute wank. I'm stuck in hospital and I'd rather sit in silence than finish that bollocks. Warner Bros just haven't got a fucking clue what they want to do with these characters. Don't get me wrong, I'm sick to death of the over saturated superhero market, but at least Marvel have a plan and still deliver good films. DC & Warner Bros are failing so hard. They could do with another reboot as ridiculous as that sounds.
