It certainly looks like you're going to have a big turnover in the squad, there's always a danger of over egging it when you have wholesale change, so Rodgers is going to have his work cut out moulding a whole host of new players into what he wants.
Sometimes less is more.
The one single advantage we've had from having no bleeding cash, is that we've kept a small, close knit squad, and that's had benefits in terms of cohesion and familiarity on the pitch.
So now the problem is I didn't post the link#grasp #deflect
As I originally said you donk, it was out of context - a random couple of paragraphs with no link and the text posted made no ****ing sense, given it's Friday tomorrow ffs.
You of all people quoting the beeb and then making out I'm daft for picking it to pieces? ****ing lol.
I quoted all the relevant paragraphs of the article, enough to understand what it was saying, and referred to a "possible" twist to take place
thus far i feel the changes have been planned whether or not i agree with them.
lambert in for aspas is not loss. apsas was unplayable last year towards the end so better he shuffles of and if we recoup the lambert fee at least its not good moeny after bad.
can was a good signing in a much needed area
Moreno was long mooted again in a very weak area
Lallana was likewise and will likely just strengthen the midfield rather than play up top
all those have been long tie plans. not sure about markovic really but we tried for salah, konoplynka and so forth so again is seems to fit the replacement of the squad gap plugged badly with moses last year when again mkhitaryan and willian failed.
Really the core intent is there but that was prior to suarez. You could see maybe one or two new signings starting in the first 11 on day one with suarez and sturridge but then he did his nut and is to be sold so the cascade effect of that will be tactical and personnel changes
i would now probably see an LFC team with maybe 4 new faces on day one and a bench with a further 3.
Mingoloet
johnson (worst luck) lovern Sahko Morneo
gerrard
Henderson Lallana
Coutinho
Sturridge Markovic
Jones, Flanagan, skertl? Can sterling, Lambert allen
all in all its on paper stronger but had square never occurred there'd be a more predictable and stable set of tactics to work players into.
As it stands i don't see much benefit at all form the england trio in CM as hodgosn was dire and they didn't kick around that way (and add sterling to that).
we'll see... we could start with skertl and enrique at the back on the grounds of being more in tune over preseason i dunno.
then there is the Big who know who will arrive as well to throw it all wide open
Does anyone know if we've definitely given up on Shaquri (sp) yet? I ask on this thread because I'm praying that the confusion over Suarez is holding up us putting in a bid before Bayern realise what a gem they could lose.
And sometimes you're whistling in the wind Tobes. Having a nuclease of players with experience supported by whoever you can lay your hands on can also demotivate the good players that you do have. At least acknowledge that there's 2 sides to that coin.
Last season it worked well for you. There is no law that says the same level of loanee quality will be around for you this season.
They achieved **** all and only the quality of Martinez (who Tobes doesn't rate) and some early season form from Lukaku meant their season wasn't a complete write off
Don't want to start another war on here, but this raises two points:-

1) The very act of appealing to Cas means that the ban is suspended until they hear it?
2) Uruguay and Suarez can appeal to Cas - why can't Liverpool? Are they waiting for him to become a Barca player knowing that they have more , er, influence and clout? (ie, officials from Cas have already selected the Mercs and Lexus's they desire).

Oo-er. Good job we're not a team of phosphodiester bonds!
Sorry, Dave, couldn't resist. It's not a term I thought I'd see on our forum.
Presumably because we weren't party to the original appeal to FIFA, although that's just a guess.
I'm just ready for this all to be over!
Lock someone from Barcelona and someone from Liverpool in a room. Tell them they can't come out until they've agreed a sale or agreed to no sale.

Everyone else is not dave.
Anti-Pedant note: There may be others that have the same name as he, but they won't be the entity that we know and love and call dave.
Yes, although the entity that we know as Dave, could potentially have more than one account.
