As in, not sign anybody, but sign wisely? Especially with the knowledge that Milner/Henderson don't appear to be fully fit or can't last a full 90 anymore... Oxlade-Chamberlain should have been gone ages ago. I think we very clearly need to sign players that aren't as injury prone. I think we tried to sign Bellingham from Dortmund but they've told us to fuck off - so we're waiting until the "right" midfielder is available. We also tried to sign that player Real Madrid spent a lot on... I forget his name, but it's something long that starts with a T, I'll call him Tbhdsfhawefioasdfkl for now. But we obviously didn't get him because Madrid did. I still think Oxlade-Chamberlain is more useful than Keita when fit. Trouble is he's literally never fit. I think both of them need to be shifted out ASAP with one or two new midfielders brought in ASAP. In any case, we look absolutely dogshit and I'm going to be hitting the panic button because we've been outplayed by a United side that got hammered by Brentford and hasn't looked like a decent side for over a season.

They are not going to waste the money they can afford for a Bellingham on James Maddison They are owned by FSG a multi-national sports conglomerate that is run by people whose individual wealth is in the billions. They could revive Maradona's corpse and put him out there if they wanted. 1% of what the Boston Red Sox earn in a season could buy M'Bappe.

But they're hardly broke No but the point about Liverpool’s transfer strategy is that they use the money they have to sign the right players, not panic and spend £80m+ on James Maddison off of the back of a short term injury problem.

Tchouameni. Real Madrid buying him for £100m (?!) is stupidly insane. So fair play if you're not getting him. I get there's probably not that much to spend on one player. You're playing a Utd side that played totally and remarkably different so it's incomparable really. It's not even that, Liverpool didn't look themselves at all. The energy seems to be dissipating bit by bit. Going a goal down for 7 games in a row becomes a mental thing and already you're making it harder to win games. We had the same last season - quite often we'd give ourselves far too much to do when you constantly have to score more than 2 to win a game because we always conceded 2. And that problem hasn't gone away! Anyway, think you'll recover in good time once players like Thiago and Jota come back. Especially Jota. Very effective with goals and assists. But that midfield looked overrun so much today. Maybe Fabinho starting if fully fit might have made a difference. I think only Elliott comes out of the team with any credit tonight for you guys. Everyone else sub-par. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
