Liverpool

[AnfieldEd]

Still I don't want us to sign him because we've got Origi. What we need is someone a bit more at their peak with some proven pedigree.

Which is great because I have just learnt that we are after Bacca.

 

[DonAK]

Not sure whether Liverpool right now is a much better team to play for than Sevilla who will be in the CL.

 

[AnfieldEd]

Of course we aren't better than Sevilla!!! But is that the point?!

 

[AnfieldEd]

Deal for Clyne all but completed. £12.5m is a great deal imo.

 

[Jenks]

He's overrated. It should allow Can into midfield though which will work well for Liverpool IMO.

 

[SwiftGuyver]

if they can now add Digne, Illarramendi & Bacca I'd say Liverpool are looking very good for next season...

Mignolet/Bogdan
Clyne/Flanagan
Škrtel/Lovren
Sakho/Ilori
Digne/Moreno
Can/Illarramendi
Henderson/Allen
Milner/Ibe
Coutinho/Lallana
Firmino/Ings
Sturridge/Bacca/Origi

 

[Hamzah]

Decent, but they still need a good centre back. Assuming rodgers does his job they will be fifth or maybe even fourth.

 

[Icarium]

4th is a no go unless sturridge stays fit whole season and score consistently. They still haven't signed any reliable goal scorer.

 

[Hamzah]

True. I just think fourth is possible and their maximum potential.

We won't sign all of those players and possibly none of them, seeing that we Benteke is obviously our No.1 choice. I've no idea why, but hey ho.

This will probably be our starting 11 in September.

-------------------------Mignolet--------------------


----Clyne------Skrtel-------------Sakho------Moreno-----


--------------------------Milner-----------------------------


----------Henderson--------------Coutinho------------------


------------------------Firmino-------------------------------


----------------Sturridge---------Benteke-------------------


With the the likes of Bogdan, Lovren, Toure, Gomez, Can, Allen, Ibe, Markovic, Lallana, Ings and Origi in the squad.

Really we are a better team than spurs and up until the last two games of the season we were comfortably ahead of them. But we imploded due to different circumstances (Gerrard farewell, Sterling etc).

So I do expect 5th place. Anything less than 5th is a complete and total failure. Anything above 5th is going to be a huge bonus - but I can't see it unless Brendan proves to me and a lot of supporters that we can compete in and win the big games - and with our first 10 fixtures he hasn't a lot of time to prove it.

I'd also like us to match and go one stage further in the cups than from last season.

But with the up of Firmino the rollcoaster goes down, down, down upon hearing we ultimately really want Benteke ahead of Bacca and Rondon. Fuck knows why though.

If you didn't bottle the Suarez transfer fee, you should be challenging for the League this year instead of 3rd/4th.

Great transfer window so far for Liverpool, how they got Clyne for that price is astonishing. Southampton must've given them a discount after ripping them off last year

 

[Ritchie]

It'll be a few years before Liverpool can challenge for 4th again.

 

[AnfieldEd]

Now that Bacca is going to Milan it seems we've settled on Benteke.

 

[antonnn]

Awesome news.

Dunno think they have had a good summer just need a better striker.
