Lambert was a really poor fit for Liverpool, Balotelli's a poor fit for anyone, they massively overpaid for Lovren, lots of the business they did last season was poor.
Think everyone on here last year thought we got some great signings, me included. We were unlucky with 2 bad injuries, and hindsight with the rest is a great thing.
All 3 were proven quality players in the PL so Hindsight Yes at the time No. Only twt on this summers.

Aston Villa, who Tickles assures us have no money to spend, have agreed a £9m fee with Lille for 25-year-old midfielder Idrissa Gueye.
Except for Bogdan. And to be honest, as much as I like Danny Ings as a player. Its very hard to say he's up to scratch for a club that have champions league aspirations.
I deliberately left Bogdan off my list of their signings. I think Ings is a very good player, I think he'll be a decent fit, much better than Lambert.
Ings is certainly a better signing than Lambert. Nothing against Lambert, but he's much older than Ings and doesn't really fit into Liverpool's style, which I think Ings would.
He's highly rated, but I believe his mum tried to assault one of the Arsenal coaches if that's the same kid.
She's bonkers apparently, they banned her from the training ground, but she went in anyway, took a selfie, then got arrested. please log in to view this image
