  • 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)

Great graphic. 

Klopp is the man.

I like the graphic but no Mane and Gomez was already there and starting. 

Fuck yes I'm so chuffed with this signing. We have creativity back in the midfield that we lost after selling Phil. Our midfield is now arguably the best in the league. That's fucking massive. It may take them a second to adjust to each other but after December look fucking out. Jesus titty fucking Christ I can't wait.

 

Sweet...glad we got that wrapped up

Now about these dang klopp and salah rumors i saw online...can we just get rid of those and win some trophies for a few years

So basically, LFC replaced Coutinho with Keita, Fabinho and Fekir.

Fucking A.

Get a backup striker and a top-flight keeper if you're going that route, sell the deadwood and call it a summer.

Other rumor on the transfer news according to google is allison to LFC is almost done

Lots os shit's gonna fly around before the teams leave for Russia. LFC is trying to avoid the post-WC tax that some players will have.

That's just great business right there.

Echo says Fekir passed his medical after needing a second opinion on his knee. Should get some photos soon.

Ages when we bought them:
VvD- 26
Salah- 25
Mane- 24
Firmino- 23
Fekir- 24
Fabinho- 24
Keita- 23
Ox- 24

We’re buying world class players right as they’re entering their prime. Love this strategy. 

I do not know the source, but LFC Twitterverse is saying The King is finally getting his Knighthood.

 

Arise Sir Dalglish!

Dang it thats what i was going say....King Kenny gets demoted

All speculation. But this is from the Echo:

The ECHO understands that an announcement of the transfer is unlikely to be forthcoming in the near future, and Fekir's injury history has been reported as the sticking point on the completion of the deal.

Way to botch the Fekir transfer, Liverpool. Never change.

I have no problem holding off on what would be our second-biggest transfer fee ever if there are serious concerns from the medical team about his knee.

Apparently we tried to restructure the payment based on his appearances per season, and Lyon said fuck off. Perfectly reasonable from both sides.

I love Fekir's game, and I'm not sure there's a like-for-like plan B out there, but I also would hate to buy a crocked player. 

What he said^^^
If knee isnt right then im good....

I dont know fekir and dont wish him any harm but i will be pretty bummed if knee holds up though lol

“Knee isn’t good”...

 

meanwhile signed Oxlade-Chamberlain for how much $$ last year?

5 years 35 million£

Approximately 63% of the fee that Lyon wants for Fekir.

 

We are clearly still going to spend on that type of player this summer even if we don’t land Fekir. I’m not worried about the club getting deals done. They’ve clearly shown an intent to get the players Klopp wants and will pay big to do so.

yipp

If we're not sure about the knee, I agree with keeping our powder dry.  Would rather spend the money on top GK and Winger anyway.

I guess I'm more disillusioned with our medical staff than most considering the outrageous number of games our entire squad seems to miss every single season. Fekir has missed 10 games in two seasons since his knee surgery. Ox missed 82 games for Arsenal due to various injuries going back to 2012 and cost 73% of what Fekir would allegedly cost with nowhere near the performance history to back it up (and lo and behold, another injury at the end of this season). This is also the second summer in a row that we've had a public transfer debacle in terms of "done deals" where it's widely reported that the player is keen to come here and it's in the works and being reported, etc. only for it to end in blue balls.

So why bring in another injury prone player when we have a squad full of them

Big difference between bringing in a squad player (Ox) vs. a starter. If you are splashing 50 million with the understanding that he'll start, he'd better be 100%

I guess we have a different definition of "injury prone". I'm not qualified to read an MRI (obviously), but he's missed 10 games in two years after surgery. I would have expected a calamitous reconstruction surgery would have reared its ugly head in the form of recurring injuries more often over that period of time. Jordan Henderson missed more time than that with an alleged bone bruise on his foot.

If we spent that much on a rotation player, then that's worse business in itself. Ox is a borderline XI player depending on who else is healthy at any point in time to me. If Fekir had a freak injury, I'd feel plenty comfortable subbing in Ox for a good length of time.

Ox was a huge question mark when we signed him. I agree that NOW he's a starter. Not so much when we signed him.

I agree 100%. So I’m mostly wondering how our front office goes from splashing that kind of cash on an injury prone squad rotation guy to hesitating on a guy who is a starting midfielder on the World Cup favorite AFTER we get a shit ton of Champions League cash + a shit ton of Coutinho cash.

This. I am all for being cautious but they can't have it both ways. And hey how about if there is any possible hiccup to not trip on your dick until it is all signed, sealed and delivered.

Maybe they turned their eyes to 20 year-old Fiorentina attacker Federico Chiesa , but it appears that his price is starting to skyrocket.

21.45 BST: Amid interest from Liverpool, Manchester City and Manchester United, Fiorentina have upped the asking from for 20-year-old attacker Federico Chiesa from £44 million to £62 million, talkSPORT cites Gazzetta dello Sport as reporting.

From ESPN's Transfer Page: http://www.espn.com/soccer/blog/transfer-talk/79/post/3522274/live-transfer-talk-arsenal-close-on-caglar-soyuncu-bale-wants-prem-return

Here's a 3 1/2 minute video of the guy (#25). There is also one over 10 minutes long.

 

The Fekr transfer going to the brink is odd. The medical must've been really bad as everyone had it locked up. The upside is it shows FSG is willing to spend money but not take a risk on an injury prone player. Maybe we get a better player in the long run. I'm of two minds of the pre WC/post WC purchase. Lots of risk in Russia. Look what happened with Fred. 

New away kit that's coming out tomorrow.

 

CSB, I was at Anfield when they released the home kit. Crazy crowd in there, but managed to get mine for next year.

Plan to take advantage of the free world delivery so I can have mine before Charlotte. 

So any truth to Shaqiri as a target? That name popped up a few summers ago. He seemed to underwhelm but he's cheap to get with a 12 million release clause.  

Seems like Shaqiri is a viable target. It appears as though both sides have talked. I'm sure he doesn't want to play Championship Football and he'd be a decent backup for Salah, especially with Ox out.

I realize I'm not the target demographic but I'm not a fan of the purple kits. 

Rumor is klopp told board to call off pursuit of allison....apparently price is to much
