On transfers... The club has been working hard on a number of targets. I know the club has been working very hard to get players in. I'll leave that to them and see how they can get on. This is a brilliant club and we try to get players in that fit for the club for now. We need players that can come in now and help us. January is a very difficult market. The team has improved over the last year, so it's hard to bring in players in this window that can improve the team. I'd rather wait and look at our young players than just bring in one or two squad players. i read this as; players on the target list are only for first team and to improve it.
Why are you moaning at Mourinho and Chelsea? We'd do the same if we had the money but we don't! As for Pepe,IMO it was time for him to move on. Good goalkeeper but his form had started to dip as life became just too comfortable for him. If he comes back then he'll have to fight for a place. If he doesn't then I trust that we won't let him go for a small fee. Ming is now our No1.
Good. For too long we have concentrated upon building depth to our squad. We have 'class' players, we now need more of them.
you are right. i am merely point out it was a mistake to do what we did but we can't undo something that was done
Yeah thats well and good but we need to offer what the selling club are asking for I understand not being ripped off, Jan is hard etc but we have 15 bloody fit players so not much play in the line up for tomorrow. Fine go with that as we have no choice but we also have an extremely important game on Tues to which our best are going to turn up 'tired'
in the end rodgers said he'd go for kids... no issue with that... its really the question about the targets salah was apparently not only 11mil but up to 15mil on performance and we wanted to offer 8
Now we have Barnes saying Allen can fill Lucas position so no worries "Joe Allen is a ready made replacement, he came with a big reputation from Swansea and he did well last year. He still has that potential," he said. "He still has that quality, he'll be hungry to show that he can come in and fill those shoes. So I don't think that it will be too much of a miss." No John, we've actually seen that he cant. Why on earth keep trying the same things and expecting it to be better!
No Way. As I say nobody has done any truly game changing business in this window (as yet). So it's really as you were. We may be no better off but we can cope because we have proved that we can. As for the Derby, Everton are limping into that with a far weaker squad than we have and you lot are crying!
Joe Allen is about as far away from a DM that we need and crave at the moment! Wonder if his tune will change when City, Chelsea, ****ing Arsenal come through and run right through our CM's.
Mignolet, Jones, Ward Kolo, Skrtel, Cissokho, Kelly, Smith Gerrard, Henderson, Sterling, Coutinho, Allen, Alberto, Moses, Ibe Suarez, Sturridge, Aspas 19, with Flannagan and Sakho expected back tomorrow. Who else is out?
Sunday and Monday is more than enough rest to recover with! These players have all the ice baths and machines, yoga instructors, specialists, nutrionists, etc to get them back to their best!
Dont know ---------- On expected team selection vs Bournemouth… We’ve only got 15 players training at the moment, so there’s not a lot of choice with the line-up this weekend. We’ll name a strong line-up against Bournemouth. Although the Premier League is the priority, Liverpool is a club built on winning trophies and we want to win the FA Cup. We’ll call up some of our young players to cover for the amount of injuries/illness we’ve got out. We’ll also play with lots of our experienced players, alongside the youngsters. We want to maintain our commitment and work. http://www.thisisanfield.com/2014/01/brendan-rodgers-pre-bournemouth-press-conference/
