I don't think we bought Sakho for close to 14m to not start him. Maybe he'll sit out a few games to learn systems, but he will start relatively soon.

Agger has played left back. If we want to accommodate Agger, Sakho, Skrtel and Toure, that looks like the best to me.

You're absolutely mental

Strange reasoning? haha You do realize Agger is #1 on the team sheet after Gerrard.

Are you high? You would drop Agger in favour of Enrique? Madness.

What's this nonsense about? Because I'd prefer Sakho at CB than Enrique at LB. For me, our defender priorities are: Agger Sakho Toure Johnson Enrique Skrtel Wisdom Cissokho Kelly Ilori Skrtel, however, had a phenomenal match against United and deserves to start on Monday.

Who's more suited to play left back - Agger or Sakho? I would say Agger because Sakho is an aerial beast. Agger - Sakho - Skrtel - Toure for me on Monday.

I can see both sides. Heck, Barca plays 4-3-3 a lot of the time with Busquets or Mascherano at centerback. For me, the best way forward is Agger / Enrique - Sakho / Agger - Skrtel / Toure - Johnson / Wisdom.

It would be lunacy to play an aerial dominating player at left-back.

For 19m, he's surely starting. Must be playing RCB. Not his usual side but made up with this signing. Heck I'd even play Agger at left back, Sakho, Toure / Skrtel, and Johnson.

I could see it happening: Suarez Torres Sturridge Coutinho Gerrard Lucas Agger Sakho Skrtel Johnson Mignolet

Papa for Toure Switch Gerrard and Henderson Coutinho for Henderson Costa on the left Suarez for Aspas upon return

The way Alberto, Coutinho and Aspas are playing, I wouldn't even know who to replace if we got 50m for Suarez. Who's even available?

I have a feeling that Alberto will do what Coutinho did for us last season. Coutinho will play in the hole and Alberto more with Gerrard and Lucas.

Papa don't preach:

Have to go Notorious B.I.G. surely?

Apparently new contract at 120kpw.

FSG are putting all their eggs into the Fifa Fair Play basket. Rather than buying / keeping players on high wages and paying high transfer fees, they're buying young and cheap talent that will be with the club long-term and go on to increase their value. For the doom and gloomers who are afraid that they'll just sell them off for a profit, that goes against what they stand for. They want to create a sustainable model where we don't need to spend exorbitantly for a player as we'll have players coming up from the youth ranks. While other teams will be struggling with their transfer fees and wage structures, we won't. Also, buying youth players like Chirivella, it's my understanding that in a few years they'll be considered home grown. While it's true that a lot of next season hinges on the next month, a lot of our future hinges on FFP coming into action as it should.

Some youngsters can't play the full season at their age. Any idea how he measures up to the rest?

Yes but haven't heard about him in a while. Forgot about him to be honest. Would love to hear how he compares to the others.

Classic North American 3-Way Trade (if you know what I mean): Arsenal Higuain Real Madrid Cash Suarez Liverpool Cash Morata

Suso, Sterling, Canos, Yesil, Coutinho, Alberto and Chirivella. Bloody hell. Sell Saurez to Madrid for Morata + cash and be done with it.

Plus Carroll's 2m loan fee last season.

Anyone had Mkhitaryan Kebabs?

Morata would have a far greater chance to get in the starting 11 here than in Madrid.
