Karius is Brad Lidge after the Pujols homer. Do not want.

  • 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)

Ugh that’s bad. On a good note my new away kit arrived today, I think they look pretty sharp.

I feel like this is last year's summer transfer season all over again.

We have 1 clear weakness and we don't seem to be addressing it.

Don't get me wrong, I love the players we are pulling in, but if we start the season with Karius in net, I think we have little chance of competing for the title.

Make me a fool, Karius!

I like the Shaqiri signing. Low risk and improves our depth.

Need a bonafide starter type at AM and based on our GK options I'd opt for a Lovren replacement at this point with the money.

If we don't bring in a replacement for Karius the question becomes do we buy someone to compete with him, hold onto Waffles or sell Waffles and let Ward be the back up?

Because we didn't compete for a title last year?

EPL title? No.

I thought Migs came out and said he wants to move on already. I think I heard that in early June. I imagine he'll get sorted when the WC is over. 

Our current midfield options: Hendo, Keita, Fabinho, Milner, Gini, Ox, and Lallana. Then, you have a bunch of young guys: Grujic, Kent, Wilson, Ojo. I imagine a number of those will go out on loan. Ojo is interesting as an attacking option. 

I think Fekir still seems like a possibility, so there's your attacking mid. I heard this morning the club has allowed Gini to speak to Fenerbahce, so I guess we'll see what happens with that. Wonder if Lallana gets sold between now and the window closing. 

There are 5 CBs if you include Gomez and 4 FBs. The roster is already pretty stacked. 

The keeper situation is toxic but we're hamstrung by the availability and cost of some of the bigger targets. We've all seen Allison here recently and I don't think he's worth the money being bandied about.

Cool. Who else really competed for it last year?

Buying a partner for VvD than replacing Karius at the moment. End Lovren's reign of terror for the love of Fowler

All kidding aside he's played pretty well this WC.

He’s been really good for quite awhile. 

Amazing what a little confidence can do 

Wouldn’t mind seeing Danny Ward on the US tour. Recorded the Tranmere game but not sure I want to watch any of it.

Not to be a Karius defender, and the angles were all pretty terrible, but his gaffe yesterday seemed like one I see once or twice a weekend in the EPL. obviously he’s under the world’s biggest microscope but that wasn’t that bad in my opinion. I do think we need to spend some money and bring in an upgrade. 

Fekir apparently met w/ Aulas at the WC and pleaded to revive talks w/ Liverpool. Sounds like this one's gonna get done.

Time to let it go.  Dejan has been outstanding for quite a while now.

Be nice to get this over the line. The video is already made.

No he hasn't.

That would give us the best attack in the league imo

Can't actually contain my excitement at the possibility of Salah/Bobby/Mane up front with a Keita/Fekir/Fabinho midfield w/ Shaqiri as a super sub/rotation guy.

We sold Jordan Ibe for 15m. 

I like the free kick Shaqiri threat poses. 

Shaqiri is having his medical. 

Supposedly Danny Ward is going to get more starts in the preseason so Klopp can decide if he's getting at shot to be the starter. 


Salah, Mane, and Grujic all confirmed for the US tour:

Salah, Mane and Grujic confirmed for USA tour

Chris Shaw@__ChrisShaw

Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane and Marko Grujic will travel with Liverpool for the club's pre-season tour of the USA, which begins next Saturday.

The trio were on World Cup duty with Egypt, Senegal and Serbia respectively and with each having been eliminated at the group stage in Russia are set to return to the Reds in time for the week-long trip to America.

Jürgen Klopp’s team will compete in the International Champions Cup with fixtures against Borussia Dortmund in Charlotte, Manchester City in East Rutherford, and Manchester United in Ann Arbor.

“That’s the start for them,” the manager confirmed to Liverpoolfc.com when asked whether Salah, Mane and Grujic are going to be part of his squad in America.

“They had their holiday and then they’ll come with us to the USA. They only had three weeks’ holiday so it means they didn’t lose too much.

“We have to see how they present and then we’ll see if they can play in the games. They will be there. And then the last group [of World Cup players] comes much later.”

This will come in handy. Thanks!

Awesome, happy to help. Should be a good time in Charlotte.

 

 

I really should've gone to one of these games. I had so much fun in Chicago a few years ago. Too much going on this fall. 

WTF is with NESN not showing the friendlies this year?  Is this contractual or do they really make money showing the same Red Sox highlights for 8 straight hours?

The first couple have been on NESN just on delay. I know the last one they aired two days later. 

Officially official

There are other photos of him with Klopp and some of his new teammates making the rounds on Twitter. He looks about as happy as a person can be. 

Edited by Jograves

Wonder if he's coming to Charlotte? Would love to see him in action. 

This reminds me of the Ox signing. Dude is going to be fired up to play for Klopp. What a great signing!

Agreed, much needed quality depth, skill and speed. Should be a fun year. 

Still need another attacker, a GK, and ideally another CB, but damn, the group of incoming signings is going to make us a helluva lot better. Our bench will be phenomenal, and I can't remember the last time that was the case. 

The other issue that needs to get sorted is the outgoing players. Any of Mignolet, Sturridge, Grujic, Origi, and even Clyne could be shipped out. I'm guessing it's another loan spell for both Grujic and Origi, and Sturridge is useful enough to have around for the four games he's not on the physio table. And shit, Migs might even go into the season as our #1 GK. Basically, there's a lot of business to be done and not a ton of time left.

Sloppy match apparently based on Twitter reports

A real snooze fest based on getting up on Saturday morning and watching.  Dozed on and off.  Still think Ojo looks impressive,  Hope he gets a go

Seeing more scuttlebutt that Gini might be on his way out

That's too bad. Unless we are using that money for a GK.
