this time round i am more concerned by the first team than the bench.

we have sold a world class player and replaced with potential, and i still feel we are vulnerable in cm/dm position.

Let's worry about that when the transfer window shuts - We have cash to spend and it will get spent <ok>
 
This difference this coming season will be a bench of young players out to prove themselves and win a place in the starting line up. Last season some of our bench (Moses, Toure,) were just there for the wage packet and were either coming to the end of their career or living of reputation.

I expect Lovren to be a nailed on starter. He's an organiser and that's what we're missing. When he signed for Southampton they played him from the off and he hit the ground running. So I think it'll be Lovren and Sakho/Skrtel.

I'd like to see Lovren and Sakho get a good run together as we need to think of the future, with Sakho being young he needs to be playing - especially after having a great WC.

Skrtel has been our most consistent defender so I assume he will start but Lovren in for Sakho is definitely possible depending how things go in the next few weeks
 
Unconfirmed reports that Agger and Borini have left the LFC tour and are about to be sold

Interesting.

Borini is injured and wasn't going to take any further part in this tour anyway Rodger's confirmed so could be the reason for his departure.

Agger wouldn't surprise me if Lovren is coming in, especially if Ilori, Coates & Toure don't go anyway. Cant have Lovren, Skrtel, Agger, Sakho, Ilori, Coates and possibly Kelly all competing for 2 places.

Yeah,not really surprised by this if true.

Borini was on his way anyway and there's been rumours re. Agger for a while.Napoli was it?

Ideally we'd have 4 real quality CB's and a promising youngster who could step in in an emergency.

Agger to Barcelona? If so, a straight swap deal for Mascherano would be acceptable <ok>

Or Messi. I'm not fussy.
 
Rumours in the papers that Borini may be going to Sunderland on another years loan.

Don't get why we would do that.
 
rather have agger than toure,kelly or coates, but guess they aren't as appealing to other clubs or worth as much as him sadly.

Agger won't be first choice, especially with Skrtel, Sakho & Lovren. When you add in his wages of 100k a week and the fact he's injured for 40% of most seasons, it makes sense to get rid while he still has some value.

Was only a matter of time before one of Skrtel/Agger were sold and Skrtel's "decent" season last year means he's going to get longer than Agger. Both are part of the Rafa era along with Reina, Luca & Johnson who will all be off in the next season as well.
 
Anyone else get very frustrated with how long it takes us to close a deal.

In the past few years its cost us because we've been further away from the top.

This year we are in a better position so players hold up and sign.

I just wish we were more ruthless.
