Signing Barry and Lukaku to full contracts worked out so well for you too

 

Deulofeu's return puts you in the same category as that other clueless fat **** - Martin Samuel.

2 peas in a pod

 

I doubt Astro can grow a beard like Fat Samuel's.

 

Why did you link to a post from before last season of me saying you would be ****ed and then went on to finish 11th? #footballgenius

 

You also signed lukaku who was on loan that year and that didn't work out too well for you

thats the the problem with loans... If they work out you have to buy them to stand still.

edit: see Astro beat me to it, probably should have read the next posts before replying

 

Yeah mate, just the 20 goals....

He stank the place out

 

I already pointed out the same thing but Tobes had a #meltdown

 

I posted a link that said without the CL cash we'd not keep any of them and we'd have to sell Barkley or Coleman.......

Instead we spend over £30m net and now a year on have all 3 in our squad

It was just another example of your #footballgenius

 

Yeah instead you used the increased PL money to fund your #recordsigning and still turned out ****ed #footballgenius

Congratulations on beating all those other clubs for the signature of 3 huge money players. Just like you managed to stand strong and resist all that interest in Mirallas and Barkley for another season.

 

....or to put it another way, it was just your bitter clueless ramblings, which were proven to be absolute ****e for the umpteenth time.

 

How would you say Liverpool have managed in their first month after sacking Rodgers?

 

You need to work out if you're including all goals or just league goals as you're not very consistent when it comes to that (all goals lukaku, league goals Firmino).

So you're happy with 11th as a team as long as lukaku scored a few?

Id rather my players contributed to the team improving (or at least matching the previous years levels) and scored less than scored a few and the rest of the team did ****.

 

What a jumbled crock of ****

Firstly, European goals don't count? Ok mate x

Who said I was happy with 11th? Were you happy with 6th?

We were talking about the signing of Lukaku you said that signing hadn't worked out, I pointed out he scored 20 goals ergo you were talking out of your pipe. What's the overall team performance got to do with it ffs?

 

Im happy to include all goals, but if you're doing that for lukaku you need to do it for Firmino... In the other thread you decided to just use league goals and not cups so you can't pick and chose to which comps to include for one and not the other.

And I said it hasn't worked out as in loaning a player the signing him next year because your team performance went down. Yes on an individual level maybe he did well, but your team did pants so the general idea didn't work out too well. Signing a player on loan means the next year, you have to sign them just to stay where you are.

Your initial point was that he played for you on loan during year you came 5th... Astro and I just pointed out that so did lukaku, and then the following year you signed him perm (like you're doing with this kid) and you came 11th so that didn't work out how you'd have hoped (as a team)

 

It's Liverpool's gross spend vs everyone else's net spend (and Everton's net spend over 15 years) all over again

 

What the **** has Firmino got to do with the fact that Lukuku notched 20 goals last season ffs?

For the record I posted Firmino's stats off Whoscoredwho and it said he'd notched 39 in 143, but apparently this excludes domestic German cups http://www.whoscored.com/Players/96182/History/Roberto-Firmino

When you judge a signing you do so on their individual performance, bringing the overall league placing into it was just diversionary bullshit mate, sorry.

 

So, rather than reading 900+ pages, does anyone want to direct me to the pages Newcastle are mentioned?

 

Net or Gross your spending is huge and has been since the inception of the PL. Compare away love, crack on.

 

And the only people who care are nurds and bitters

Cue 8 hour back and forth on old old topic.

 

Nothing, but you don't seem very consistent in the way you display stats when happy to say 20 for lukaku and include all his goals to make him look better and not as many for Firmino to try make him not look as good.

Well id rather judge my signings on how they impact the team. Rather a player scored less and helped team in other ways to finish higher than be selfish score more and the team still finish lower (this is ignoring the fact that lukaku actually scored less league goals and was partly the reason you did finish lower)
