Harry 1,228 Posted January 5, 2019 Alberto Aquilani for Xabi Alonso? Balotelli for Suarez? Andy Carrol for Fernando Torres? We’ve signed some other really shitty players but not always as a clear and direct replacement for a departing star. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan 1,386 Posted January 8, 2019 Rachid Ghezzal for Riyad Mahrez. I want to think Maddison was the actual replacement though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RandoEFC 4,830 Posted January 8, 2019 Replacing Lukaku with literally nobody wasn't our best move. It's hard to isolate too many direct replacements when you haven't had that many star players in recent memory. God we're shit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vegan Kel 171 Posted January 10, 2019 Berbatov for Saha, Liam Miller (RIP) for Roy Keane, Laurent Blanc for Stam. Could probably go on and on here Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Poulsen was signed earlier in the summer although I think he probably was the Mascherano replacement because Liverpool knew he was going that window. We also signed Meireles around the time Mascherano went. Two different types of midfielders though obviously. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
