We already got who we wanted in midfield. The club foresee/expect Hendo, Fabinho and Thiago wanting to leave, none of us did.
thiago is always going to be gone in 12 months time. it'd be highly remiss not to know what you might do there Henderson is 33 again.. surely you are planning. fabinho looked atrocious for 12months. even if you didn't expect him to go you'd.be thinking who's going to be first choice. if the answer to all of the above was Jones and bajcetic then they want sacking the club made hard calls to dismiss the services of ox, keita and milner so those signing we made should be their replacement.
None of those three were expected to leave THIS SUMMER, that's the point. We've had to change our approach because they've ASKED TO LEAVE. Every club know know we're desperate for at least one more midfielder too, particularly a DM. If rather go short than but the wrong player or be held to ransom.
what’s wrong with Jones and Bajetic being planned as their replacements in 12m, when we thought they’d leave? Nothing imo. Even if they’d identified people who we may purchase in a years time, who’s to say they’re available now? All that said, we should have been replacing them over the last 2 years - we didn’t and now the worst case is happening.
and they should 200% have a list of targets. hell if you actually believed that klopp wanted that touchy lad then it'd be clear they have had plans. if you actually believed a word about Bellingham the same is true.
yup. so get on with it and don't full me full of ****e then let me down. it's better to actually try and fail than promise **** and then don't deliver. just go do the business. they clearly feel the fan unrest imo
I’m sure that they have irons in the fire, maybe they need more but we can only judge when the window closes really, especially after the unplanned departures.
Klopp has openly said we will make more signings before the first game so we have to wait and see who they are.
Apart from the fact that he's brought us success, I love Klopp because he has those qualities of honesty, integrity and loyalty. No doubt seen by some as outdated, but something I appreciate and wish we saw more of.
The club is permanently scouting so even unexpected departures will have their replacements on a spreadsheet somewhere. The sticking point is always the finances.
Much debate on this...can we put a 19 year old in Fabs 6 position and risk it? Maybe they think he is good enough already? Thing is he is going to be £40m minimum and we need a CB ideally,and another midfielder. Thiago?......what is going on with Thiago.....anyone?
and broke him . Personally not convinced by Lavia as a DM but tbf didn't see much of Southampton last season .
Me too. He's older, but if we could get Amrabat for the reported £30m I'd bite your hand off. I'd even try Joe as a #6.
