    Probably not, but it’s squad depth we need.

    yeah, but it's first XI he wants, and he's more chance of getting that at Everton. I think that is part of your recruitment problem, you have a first XI that is the match for almost any team, so opportunities are scarcer for newcomers who aren't going to cost upwards of £100m

    In case you hadn't noticed but the 2cm slots are up for grabs. Dier who's pretty solid but was up and down last year.

    Winks dembele and wanyana are currently permanently crocked and sissoko. Homes could have played there

    The common denominator is the Glazers mate.

    Until they go or die a horrible death they always will be.

    Well chuffed with our business today ... 2 young very promising full international centre backs to play alongside Maguire and Evans ... on paper an exciting transfer window for us ..<cheers>

    They've had plenty of success, they're far from my favourite people but I'm not gonna act like them *****s in the gold and green who think they own the club.

    Nor am I but they've raped the club. Simple as that. Anyone who thinks otherwise has to be insane.

    Sponsoring sleeves doesn't ****ing interest me, winning leagues does.

    Quite funny how some on here described our keeper purchase as a panic buy. Turns out were in contact with him a fortnight ago. Football forum experts eh?

    That wasn't the point I was making though, they have provided enough funds to build a stunning team, it's that ****ing div Woodward who has failed miserably to spend it properly.

    I know YOU weren't.

    Since they came in they've funded silly occasional blockbuster deals instead of dealing with the actual issues we have.

    Kenyon and Gill were way better than this prick Woodward is, who thinks it's all about paying players we don't need £350k a week Instead of building competitive squads.

    Gritty centre halves don't keep American sponsors happy, knobheads like Pogba do.

    I know you must be pissed off, and rightly so.

    But He's sanctioned £587mil worth of signings since fergie retired - that's a **** load of cash.

    Your issue is Jose. Imagine what Klopp could do with that squad.

    Considering our manager has only been here for about 4 weeks.
