Transfer Rumours Transfer Rumours thread

Im going to presume oxo is a good enough nickname but i think we should sing oooohhh bisto.. its a stretch but works.

 

Not angry, just don't think he's that great. He's doing a job for us atm, plus whilst we're creating **** loads of chances he's getting the odd tap in as a bonus. He's a modern day Jermaine Pennant!

 

Oxlade-Chamberlain's #LFC medical is underway at St George's Park

 

Guess.

 

The meat is too tough, you can eat it though. A bit like a cockerel, you can eat it but it's not great.

 

Nope

 

yeah but does it taste like chicken ?

 

Tesco "beef" burgers.

 

Those ****ers will put anything in a burger.

 

It seems a strange transfer from Liverpool if your buying Oxlaide Chamberlin to play as a central midfield player.

Yeah he's a decent player, but his best attributes like his pace, power and energy are suited to playing wide, and his weaknesses as a player like his lack of composure in possession, and his inability to dictate play in the way a top central midfield player can, make it a strange transfer for me.

Conte wanted him as a wing back, a good position for him, but roumer has it he's going to Liverpool because he's been promised a position in the middle of midfield.

Liverpool don't even play with wing backs, and I can't see him playing as a right winger ahead of Salah or Mane, so he must be buying him to play centrally. I can't really understand Klopps thinking with this transfer.

 

Agreed, strange.

 

He won't have been promised anything more than train hard and you'll get a chance.

 

He's a shocking Wing Back.

He's a Winger or ACM.

If he's going to be a CM its not going to be a Kante or even Can type. He's more like Lallana, a link between the midfield and the attack.

 

Twitter about to break as a plane has landed in Paris

 

I see him as direct competition for Lallana

 

Great innit

 

People saying he won't get in ahead of Mane or Salah are being very short sighted.

It's a squad game. We won't play with two out and out wingers every game. Hell, we've already rotated the two in question in our opening five games!

In response to...

...maybe the two wingers I've mentioned above are fast so why would we need that pace out wide?

Firmino isn't the quickest so if Oxlade plays behind the front three he offers pace down the middle. Our attack doesn't stick to positions.

I think he'll prove to be a great signing.

What I really like atm is the possibility of options, something we've rarely had over the last 15-20yrs or so...

 

Fry Bentos pies...

 

Yeah....it was said Milner was promised to play CM when he came....
