OK, so what do we need to do this summer

  • GK - Need backup, probably a younger one
    • Alisson.  Migs is almost certainly gone, but thanks for being a decent player, and great team
  • RB/LB - secure, but need depth, wouldn't mind spending money here (Gomez can provide cover)
    • TAA/Robertson are super stars as it is
  • CB - Don't think we need to do anything here unless the opportunity presents itself
    • VVD - duh
    • Gomez/Matip - great partners, need to keep an eye on Joe with the injuries
    • Lovren - clearly #4, but sometimes that's good
  • MF - We have six/seven players vying for three spots each game - if there's something great available, go out, but I mean, you know this is a good place to be IMO
    • Fabinho/Henderson/Gini/Keita/Oxlade-Chamberlain/Shaqiri, maybe Milner
    • Assuming Lallana is gone, not certain
  • F - double duh, hard to imagine starting anyone else for the time, but need cover.  Could see a mid-price player and a project to go along with Brewster
    • Salah/Mane/Bobby - two of this year's  golden boot winners
    • Origi - seems like he played himself into an extension
    • Sturridge - thanks for 13/14 and we'll always have that brilliant Chelski goal, but I'll root for you wherever you end up.

  • Had a great time in Anfield hospitality on Saturday (even though I’m an Arsenal fan). Took some work folks. The new Anfield is very nice and the Chemistry Lounge hospitality was excellent. Three cours

    I know quite a few of us go back to hornfans/early shag with the LFC threads. I tip my cap to everybody that’s been on the journey. Well deserved celebrations today.

    Down in Playa and had this made for the game room. Hopefully the Mayan gods can help us bring home the league title. (Spelling error gives it character I say)

We need a lb/rb that plays a similar style to our starters, that is not Gomez. I think we need to put Gomez at CB full time and he can be the break in case of emergency rb. We’d be silly not to make a hard run at De Ligt. 19 year olds with his talent don’t come around very often.

 

Hendo has lessened our need of a progressive ball player (along with Keita rounding into form and Ox coming back). But I’d still like to make a run at a Brandt/Fekir type. Would give us the ability to play multiple formations when one of the front 3 need a break. 

 

Need a 4th forward. 

This has some great in depth stats of possible options:

Do we keep Origi? Thoughts?

Yes. Give him a new deal. Worst case we sell him to a mid table team for £25m+ next summer. 

He may want to try his luck elsewhere for a starting role but if he's willing to stay then I'd definitely try to keep him. 

Taking the nutso luck of late goals in the Spring, I've been  very impressed with Origi, both play and work rate.  Makes sense to keep him IMO from a style of play/learning curve perspective in addition to not playing in CA/AFCON.

AFCON? Isn't he from Belgium?

 

could have worded a bit different, but said he will "not be playing in CA/AFCON." Just an added plus imo.

Edited by pied

Didn't they move AFCON to the summer? 

Brandt links were making the rounds on Twitter this morning. I'd like to see him in a Red shirt. 

Whoever we get will likely take a few months to bed in anyway, like Ox, Fabs, Keita, etc. Just buy young talented players. Easier said than done but Edwards has been knocking it out of the park lately. 

Edwards is going to sell Studge & Lallana for 30 Million each and he's going to have a statue right next to Shanks.

Sturridge should get 30 mil easy imo...he has 76 goals in the epl. Any team in europe that needs a quality forward player would be lucky to have him.

Lovren...maybe not 30 but who knows
With the inflated market.

If a promoted team or a bottomish team want to stay up investing in either player would payoff easily with the epl tv rights package

Sturridge's contract expires on 6/30/19. If Edwards gets even $1 for him, he really is a genius.

They won't let Lovren go that easily unless we sign another Dutch Centerback (I'm talking to you, Edwards). A solid 4th defender is a necessity for Cup runs.

If he is available someone will want him...middle pack who wants to try and jump up or a promoted/bottom team looking to stay up

I know i would pay 20 to 30 mil to stay up potentially...epl payouts bottom 3 teams get 100mil just from media payouts...will it happen maybe not but thats my opinion on the starting point of weasels posts saying 30mil would be a miracle for sturridge/lovren

Unless i misunderstood you..thought you were saying 30mil was a miracle...then you say they wouldnt let him go for 20 to 25 mil?

Dude, he's out of contract. We don't own the rights to him anymore. He can go anywhere he wants for free.

I said Lallana and Studge. Not Lovren. I was joking about Lallana and Studge.

Yeah i read that as lovren..oops
Got to quick on the trigger while hoping on thread

But guess point still stands guys will be valuable pieces for most teams...carry on

someone forwarded this over  to me. thought yall might enjoy it. SIAP.

 

Damir Skomina was announced as the ref for the final. He was in charge of our match at Anfield versus Napoli. Prior to that match, we hadn't won a game in which he was the ref. 

We play the Champions League final on June 1. And the new EPL campaign starts on August 10. 

So July 2019 will be the only month this year we won’t have meaningful football. Damn.

When I first saw this on another site, I posted that Wondolowski's kid would have put that over the bar.

I know we're past this game already, but this was a pretty cool video. No commentary. Just sights and sounds. Good stuff.

Ruben neves to liverpool... Bosses urging klopp to sign him....
MF is going to be stacked (hopefully)

Fantastic player but not sure why this is our focus. He's not a "playmaker" and we have plenty of midfielders. We need someone to give Bobby a rest and/or a more creative mid.

Kinda my first thought...and where would we put him with unless we move someone
Could just be transfer gossip ...but does fit the bill that LFC has been doing. Buy young talent with talent before they become stars

Also said city is in on him also

Jesus. That is just spine-tingling starting about 6:10.

Seriously. Oh to have been in the stands during that match.

I dont think it has a chance of happening at all.....but purely for shits and giggles what would Real have to offer for Liverpool to even think about moving Salah

Im not even thinking of saying yes if they arent in the 350 mill range...

This thread was really interesting about designing a balanced midfield and what their roles are:

 

 

So if we are the fave for werner and succeed what would top line up look like?

Mane Werner Salah
Kieta Firmino Fabinho Ox
Robbo VVD Matip TAA
Alisson

???
Or with milner hendo or gini over kieta?

I wouldn’t include Werner. You also have 12 players listed.

Holy shit. That touch and finish are insane.

When you post stuff like this, can you please post a source so we can decide how seriously to take it?

Good rule of thumb is to take literally nothing he posts seriously. (And to add him to your ignore list.)

I appreciate that sentiment but I'm really working on respecting everyone's opinions in 2019. Probably not a great surly motto.

I don't think I have anyone on ignore.
