The Bigfooty Liverpool Army

How many weeks before Alisson baptizes him?

 

[RossFC]

Well let's hope he comes and hammers. Doubt well sign a cb or a forward now unless players leave. He might be our only signing.

We might see some action late in the window if Marko Grujic and Harry Wilson managed to get sold. A CB and a winger perhaps.

 

[Cooldude]

When was the last time we signed a genuinely world class player in their peak?

We have come a long way from before Jurg took over, back then not even Sigurdsson wanted to come

 

[gaskin]

I love Robbo.

 

[gaskin]

Still murmurs we are in for Sarr from Watford if the price is right

I doubt it will happen. Haven't Watford this whole time been holding out for some ridiculous amount?

id argue Alisson, possibly VVD also had the reputation even though he hadn’t done it at a top team yet

‘apparently they’ve scared off all other suitors by that tactic

Hendo. Fabinho. Ox. Keita. Wijnaldum. Jones. Milner. Thiago. That is deep!!!!
Thank god we don't have hacks in our midfield anymore

Jones is only 18. Milly pushing 34. Fab filling in at 4th choice CB. He is needed.

Of course he is. It was a no brainer. Also Paul Joyce reporting that we look to sign Thiago regardless of another midfielder leaving.

Local journos are being led by the nose, only yesterday that Pearce said we'd only go for Thiago if a midfielder's leaving

 

[RossFC]

Our midfield:

Henderson
Thiago
Fabinho (Also a CB)
Keita
Gini (Contract running out)
Milner (35 years old in Jan, also a RB)
Jones (Also a LW)
Ox (Injury prone and also a RW)
Grujic (Likely to be sold)

I think brewster being supposedly sold gave us the green light. Thiago has been klopps priority since chance he was leaving.

Journos are always being led by the nose though usually anyway. How many times over the years did we see articles from legit websites/journos saying we were going to have big summers and then at the end we still had to sell to buy.

Our midfield:

Henderson
Thiago
Fabinho (Also a CB)
Keita
Gini (Contract running out)
Milner (35 years old in Jan, also a RB)
Jones (Also a LW)
Ox (Injury prone and also a RW)
Grujic (Likely to be sold)

It's still really deep. I still think we'll get rid of 1-2 and add in a winger or centrback. Would've been silly to not at least bring in one who can come into the team like thiago

 

[Gameova_]

Can we get him ready for Chelsea??? That's what I dislike about signings you get excited for one and you have a game on the horizon and you still gotta wait a week or more.

 

[Gameova_]

We could a mostly injury free season say better than last year and if we keep all those midfielders, most will be sitting on the bench/reserves. Or playing in the cups..I want us to challenge for the cups but all.around squad has never been deep enough for it. If we keep everyone and add a forward I'd say we are ready for all cups

 

[Dylan8]

Great. Add a centre-half and we're ready to go.

 

[Gameova_]

Great. Add a centre-half and we're ready to go.

Forward too imo. Sell Shaq.

 

[Cooldude]

I rate Timo very highly but Thiago suits us more than him. Probably ended up working out for both clubs by accident

 

[Fwoy]

 

[BackOnOurPerch]

Paul Joyce saying the same thing.

 

[RossFC]

20mil + 5mil in addons, nice work.

How does one measure whether a player is integral to success?
