The nature of this abuse was that the contract was signed with a team that was worse than the one he could have signed for. It’s exactly the same with Can if he turns down any of Europe’s elite for Liverpool (highly amusing considering you’re almost in the final). You know where I’m coming from though.

Man Utd are better than Arsenal though? I think it's the amount of money he signed up for, not that he jumped ship doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Gonzo 8,187 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Anyone else think we'll sign someone from a relegated club? We signed Wijnaldum after his relegation with Newcastle & Robertson from Hull (and VVD from Southampton... if they go down). Other than the obviously giant transfer fee for VVD, the other 2 have been bargains for what we paid. Anyone see anyone from the crap sides that might fill a bench spot/challenge our starters?

Bertrand from Southampton (obviously) if they drop would probably be a better back up to Robertson than Moreno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick 2,276 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 Bertrand wouldn't join as back up I don't think. Who id take for the squad if a price was reasonable. West Brom - Yacob (underrated, solid CM with a bit of bite) Rondon (excellent hold up play whenever I've seen him, would be more useful than Ings imo) Stoke City - Pieters (somebody who would probably come in as lb cover, and he's better than Moreno) Sobhi (looks to have a good bit of potential, and we need wingers ) Saints - Cedric (having a poor season but we've seen that he can do a lot better. Rated him for a while) Romeu (very very good CDM, could be a great addition to sit and protect the back four) Redmond (reckon he would thrive under Klopp, bacmgs of potential and a winger like we need) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Stan 18,385 Posted May 4, 2018 Administrator Share Posted May 4, 2018 @Mantis Toboggan M.D. while they're not bad players in themselves, I think Liverpool could do better: Yacob is nothing. Only thing he has is aggressiveness and thuggery. Rondon - decent but I can't see him in the Liverpool side? Not with the style you play anyway. Pieters - Always seen him as CB? Perhaps @Dickie could confirm. I may be wrong but even if he came in as cover, not up to Liverpool standard. Sobhi - probably the only one that could improve under Klopp with how he plays Cedric - with VVD, Lovren, Matip - another CB needed? Romeu - now he would be better than Yacob! He would improve a lot of teams in the league. Redmond - I think he's gone past the point of having potential. He's now 24 and not playing regularly for a side that's even going down? If you need a winger there's plenty out there that you could get that are better than Redmond (not Mahrez ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick 2,276 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 I'm sure Pieters is a LB? And Cedric is a RB whenever I've seen him. Yeah, looking at my list Yacob, Rondon and Pieters are probably bad shouts. I was looking as filling the squad numbers, but the back ups still need to have quality. Think Romeu, Sobhi & Redmond would be good though. Redmond might be 24, but that's still young. I think our style would suite him. He'd be quite pricey though with being English and young. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Gonzo 8,187 Posted May 4, 2018 Share Posted May 4, 2018 So training in Rome was Lallana's first full training session in a while. Can is returning to training on Monday. Can we get them match fit and get some much needed midfield depth before the final? Being able to inject fresh legs into the midfield in the second is something we severely miss when we're barebones. So I hope they're able to get fit enough. There's plenty of time, but Lallana is so fragile now it seems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He would be a good backup and squad guy for europe, cups, etc. He was pretty good when he was at PSV, we just like ruining players lol. I will tell you Sobhi is a bit overrated tbh.

Administrator Stan 18,385 Posted May 9, 2018 Administrator Share Posted May 9, 2018 Going to today's game vs Arsenal with a family friend and his mate used to work at Monarch. He's now an ops manager mainly at Gatwick and he's responsible for Liverpool's tour of the USA in summer. Apparently Liverpool are spending £1.6m on an A380 for this tour I don't know if I'm more jealous of this mate of his or more incredulous on how much Liverpool are spending on this pre season tour Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rick 2,276 Posted May 14, 2018 Share Posted May 14, 2018 So Keita has cost us just over 52m. Obviously a big price, but if he plays to his potential that could end up being another quality bit of business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's just how dogshit our refs are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
