I am sure Slot is clever enough to work around his tactics to suit a totally different player, like Frimpong

It is still a big blow for Liverpool:
homegrown lad,
world-class level (not defensively),
he still chooses to go...

has to be said: the pull of Madrid and Barca is unmatched by any other club in the world, not matter the state
How highly would you rate Frimpong?

I dislike Madrid getting this player for free, but it's still so funny how they pick and choose some of the best players in that league. Must sting like crazy for EPL fans who think English teams are the pinnacle of football when you're constantly shamed like that. Fabregas, Henry, Suarez, Barca. Ronaldo, Bale, Rudiger, TAA, Madrid. Rodri gonna be next soon probably.

How the hell are you supposed to compete with Madrid when your local home boy runs his contract down to follow his dream of playing for them? You will never see something like that happening the other way around. When a Madrid star runs his contract down to join Liverpool, I'll know the poles of power have changed.

Wonderful

Keep them money hungry mercenaries coming, it ends how it always ends

Carvajal is 10 times the player he is, by the way - just to remind you all

It depends if they will know how to use TAA. If he'll be their main creator and the midfield will cover his position when he leaves RB position then it could be leathal. He'll be a liability in defence either way, we should explote that with Rapha next season.

I think it's pretty stupid from TAA point of view. He could be a Liverpool legend but he'll throw it all away to be just another player in Madrid (potentially even a flop).

Very stupid is that he thinks he can win Ballon D Or in Madrid.
Mbape and Vinicius, even tap-in ham, will always win it ahead of him

Very high.
Super fast, great dribbler, can cover the whole flank up and down.
Better defender than Trent, even though avg defender as a right back

Certainly not a creator THO, like Trent, and with lower IQ.

But Slot can slot (!) him in well and adapt his tactics accordingly...
Edwards loves him. He's definitely my pick to replace Trent.

For Latin Americans and Spanish/Iberian people like Suarez, Ronaldo, Fabregas, etc. you know that Madrid or Barca is their dream

What is certainly a blow to EPL is that this pull exists even in local English boys, who dream more of a Madrid than of a UTD or a Liverpool....

Real Madrid and Barcelona simply have a pull and attraction that no other club has, especially the former.
