    Pretty much been their talisman since arrived and is the leader for the national team.

    Surely not ****ing up and doing his job equates to being solid?

    He wasn’t spectacular by any means but he actually did a decent job, one that fans won’t acknowledge because of his past.

    Don’t get me wrong, he’s not a starter. Robbo is the main man now. But it means we can rest Robbo and use Moreno who is very similar stylistically.

    Unfortunately for Karius, the same will happen to him if he is given another chance.

    Semantics maybe, but more of an accident waiting to happen as far as I'm concerned.
    Same as Lovren, Mignolet and Karius. The latter's spell of ok-ishness didn't convince me at all that there wasn't a catastrophe on the cards, I just wish it hadn't come at such a crucial time.
    With Moreno, I just feel that we all wanted him to do well (as we should do with all our players), and so were relieved that he wasn't a total disaster on legs for a while.
    Then Robbo came along and showed us how it could - and should- be done.

    I agree - with those players listed, we are expecting the worse to happen. And as such, we will never be confident.

    I see Moreno as a lesser problem simply because he’s not starting.

    Liverpool 'could rival Everton' in race for Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha

    there's a reason why Moreno has no takers and is waiting for a free transfer.

    he is pants.

    same will be for mingolet.


    I think fabinho will take a while to settle in personally. I think he should not be expected to be brilliant day 1

    Keita is the only one that will walk into the team. Henderson will be back late, so Fabinho will probably start after a full pre season

    There are plenty of clubs that Mignolet will be perfectly adequate for.
    I don't know whether or not his wage demands will be an obstacle, because I'm not obsessed with the club's finances. <whistle>

    Who else do we need? In priority order:

    GK
    #9
    Fekir
    CB
    LB

    3 now, 2 next summer

    The vid of the Tranmere player calling Karius "****ing ****" after the mistake in the game is funny.
    He has to be taken out of the team.

    Hmmm.. not sure.

    No 9 for me is a hard one. We have lots of kids coming up.

    Gk is obvious one. There's one kid that might be better on loan than as no 3. There's ward who I wouldn't put high on my list so buying one is obvious to us both

    Fekir seems klopp s desire to pass to salah and firmino, he seems priority.

    Rcb... at some point gomez either makes it or doesnt. Klopp likes lovren. Surely we give gomez a god before buying no?

    Lb... I don't think Lewis is going to turn into a first team option so for me Robertson will be covered by clyne this year, I hope.

    No 9. We have 3 to get rid of then two kids plus two more coming up. Are any the answer... cos tim o Werner wasn't great in world cup

    Fekir yes. Allison maybe... not sure but maybe. No cb no lb

    75k or so per week.

    Not many mid table and lower clubs and no foreign clubs will pay that.

    He wasn't solid, he was better than his previous diabolical self. It's a shame because the lads determining, heart and desire can't be questioned, plus he had pace to burn. He's just got nothing between the ears!

    I know but none of our other 9’s are good enough or ready. Point is that if Bobby is out for 6 weeks, who steps in? I get you point about Fekir being the creative spark in the middle.

    Just thought I'd remind people that Roma didn't concede a single goal at home in the CL [until they met us] - must say something about Alisson.
