Not quite like that but still mental.

Jurgen Klopp has a house in Dortmund from his days managing there and rents it out to people in the area. One of the previous occupants was none other than Ousmane Dembele. After Dortmund put the brakes on his move to Barcelona Dembele trashed the house, leaving dirty underwear and household waste in the garden, generally leaving the place in a terrible state. 

He then fled to France and got his move.

If I had a tenant do that I'd be so fucking pissed off at them.

[Dr. Gonzo]

Rumours are also that Fulham's Ryan Sessegnon is on the cusp of a move to Spurs.

Most nailed on transfer of the summer if you ask me.

Yeah that's fucking disgusting if so. Sadly I deal with tenants like that who are ridiculous hoarders and the condition of their properties is fucking vile. 

That's so immature and nasty from Dembele. Was it actually proven to be him in the end?

I think it 40 million and William.

If this is the sort of money being rumoured already, we are well and truly fucked.

Colin was on Talksport this morning saying they're not going to be in the market for twenty million pound players but instead will be looking to get five or six players for that amount

They doing their shopping in league 2? So naive to think that's going to work nowadays. It's VERY rare you get 5 of 6 gems for those prices.

Someone should just show him a list of the transfers from the last time he was in the top flight compared to this season and then take a picture of his face as he sees the differences - because I bet it will be a look of both pure shock and disgust.

Well we got Mahrez, Kante and Vardy for less than £6.5m combined...

 

Throwing money at clubs/players doesn't always work and it might not even be Warnock's choice -they may just not have the budget to spend ridiculous amounts. Sometimes the big clubs don't get it right despite chucking £50m or other obscene prices for players.

We've already done that as well. 

Going to be a tough season regardless of who we get.

Been on the cards since last summer.

Eyyy, Talksport, I was on there once

Look forward to the people saying that I'm lying, when I have audio proof of it

They approached me on Twitter to talk Peru with Hugh Wizzy as a World Cup preview.

It was a good experience. They sent me the audio and I uploaded it to Youtube.

Fekir is slow and refuses to play out wide. Ahh, Lyon fleecing stupid English teams once again.

Effecient in the final third though. Something Willian isn't. Or at least consistent enough. 

[Dr. Gonzo]

Someone just told me the transfer window opens in 9 days. That's mental.

Slow and refuses to play out wide isn't something that seems kosher with Liverpool. Also injury prone.

Ooooh, I can't wait to see the going price on wingbacks. Seriously though, fullbacks are simultaneously the most important and least important players on a team.  A great team has amazing fullbacks, but a shitty team can survive with bad fullbacks.  Look at Chelsea, a shitty team trying to be a great one. They get by but if they wanted to be elite they'd need great fullbacks. Mancity, they get by with Delph but they have Mendy as well. The ultimate luxury player.

Yeah fullback is definitely a strange position for sure. Last season we got by with Milner as a left back all year (and he was weirdly good at it). But now we've got a good proper left back in Robertson, I can't believe we ever did that. But as you say Delph is pulling a Milner this year.

I don't think Chelsea's a shitty team though. But you're right in the way you're set up asks a lot of your fullbacks, especially going forward. And in that system, you need significantly better than Moses and Alonso as your fullbacks.

Sidenote: I literally cannot believe Victor Moses still plays for Chelsea, even though he was quite good against us on Sunday. Maybe my mind is poisoned by his totally shite loan spell with us, but I just can't believe he's still at Chelsea.

He looks fast in YouTube videos, but YouTube can be so misleading. What you're saying sounds all like things that would not mesh well with us at all.

Especially the refusing to play out wide stuff. We need depth for our front 3, and positional rotation is a big part of how our front 3 works. Firmino gets away with not being the quickest because of the pace of the other 2, his great footwork, and being a good reader of the game. So not being the fastest isn't necessarily a major detriment.

I really want Ben Yedder, but he'd be far too expensive as an option from the bench for Firmino. But I also think Chelsea would be wise to be in for him too. I think he'd immediately come in and make an impact with you lot.
