If ever there was a team that should be spending £200m on whomever is the best number 6 in the world, it's us.

What a pen

Wtf does Virg keep running backwards away from the f***ers. Happening loads. Go to the f***ing ball!!!

Keep him and add.

Well in Cody. He's looked our best attacker to be fair.

It's not. He genuinely wanted Barca despite that.

Gordon dreamed of playing for Barca as a kid and learned Spanish accordingly. He was always going to choose them. Savinho costing £85m is bonkers.

Tommy Robinson on a free?

"We won the league, BUT"....... Transfer windows and the lack of activity in some of them is not cut and dried in terms of what follows. I believe we need more, definitely, but the cries of negligence, gas lighting etc are mad. Signing good players, the right players, is hard. Nobody here has any clue who we are or have been talking too, what the club has or hasn't been doing. Barcola, a Liverpool fan btw, is probably going to happen by the looks of things. "If" it does, it's another sign of crazy ambition/commitment following the pursuits of Isak and Wirtz. Three 9 figure signings in 12/14 months...

Like when we only signed Chiesa and won the league

I really enjoy the absolute bed wetting by the same folks on this thread every transfer window. Very entertaining. If Liverpool think Rio is a superstar in the making on right, I'm all for it. Barca took that game with Yamal, PSG with Doue. If McConnell and Nyoni are proving to the new manager they can hack it so we don't need to sign new midfielders, go for it. We have gaps, no doubt about it, but signing top players is hard. Over paying for 'maybe' signings is easy, and costly. Will Anderson really be a success at City? Not a dead cert is it. YNWA livE rEActiOn!

Yeah, me too

I mentioned before, we actually have more players that 'can' play wide right than we do wide left. (Rio, Munoz, Dom, Elliot, Chiesa, Frimpong, Wirtz Whether or not they should is another matter. As for Rio, the club seem to have real belief in him.

He literally won't be missed.

Barcola will be the Salah replacement. As for Nyoni, it ain't that big a leap to be a squad player.

Villa will be unrecognisable next season. Martinez likely to go too, and Watkins, along with Rogers, Tielemens, Malen, Diane plus others...

Yeah, just had a look through their line ups through the season. Normally Scott plus one depending on fitness. Also looked through all their results..... how the f*** did they finish 6th?!?!? Some absolute shockers... Conceded 54 goals, only 6 teams conceded more. My advice, don't look at their season in full. Had a reasonable finish last 6 games...

Who were the "holding" players at Bournemouth and were they any good? Or were they leaky also? Was Scott one or was he further forward? Not saying we buy them, just more intrigued as to how Iraola played them.

Yeah, but no change vs all change..

About the league itself this season, I don't see anyone beating Arsenal really, but the next 5 or 6 places are going to be soooo competitive this season. Not saying quality will be high necessarily, just think it will be one of the hardest seasons to get top 4 or 5. Us, City, Utd, Villa, Chelsea, Spurs under new man... can make a case for all of them to get CL. Gonna be a long slog. Need to get a good start with our kind first 5 games.

Barcola knows he'll be defending a lot with Arsenal. Iraola will let him ATTACK!!

f*** me you're dour

Oi, don't start that!

So Iraola plays with a 2. We have, Dom, Grav, Macca, Nyoni, Jones, Endo, Bajcetic, McConnell. Have numbers but not quality. I'd sell 4 of those and buy 2 good ones.

Yep. As I mentioned earlier, both City and Arsenal value winning the midfield and are doing everything possible to add to it. (City already grabbed Anderson). I want a Liverpool manager and DofF that understands how important the control of the middle of the pitch is. Hendo, Fab and Gini or Milner Feed the front line, protect the back line.
