It'll take something special to get players like Gotze now. Last nights result will have horrific consequences for us <steam>

To be fair most of your transfer targets are ones klopp probably had on his radar rather than superstars. Other than gotze no one has heard of anyone else!

But haven't Leicester just shown us, you don't need superstars, just need to buy the right players.

Buy the players that fit our style would be a huge step in the right direction for us, 5 years we bought the wrong players and spent a **** ton of money doing so.
Seriously how many players at the club bought in the last 5-6 years would you actually want to keep, less than half? Not to mention all the ones got rid of.

Agreed. I never said they were bad. More pointing out you didnt need the cl to attract these players klopp has been targetting (presumably its him and not the committee ) so that sky would not be so sad
 
One thing we definitely need in future players is strong mentality.

That doesn't mean players who work hard or are professional - I mean players who don't shirk from responsibility, comfortable playing on the big stage, performing week in week out.

That was the major difference last night - Sevilla played like a team that knew the job at hand and how to execute it.

Ok reality time.

How about this discussion topic.

No European football = much smaller squad needed so who goes? u21s and seniors?

Here is my list.

Bogdan (obvious)
Ward (loan to huddersfield bodes ill)
Vigeroux

Enrique (gone already)
toure
Ilori
Moreno
Skertl
Mclaughlin
Smith
randall (possibly)
wisdom
cleary (apparently)
Maguire (apparently?)


Lucas
allen
rossiter (gone)
dunn
Teixteria
Stewart
alberto
Markovic
trickett Smith (apparently)
canos (contract?)

sinclair
Benteke
Yesil
Balotelli

I'm up to 28.

So...

who's left.

Mingolet
Assumed Karius

Clyne
flanagan
Gomez
Lovern
Matip
Sahko due to being unsaleable

(this then needs 3/4 players in, 2 LBS IMO)

Henderson
Can
Milner
Grujic
coutinhoi
firmino
lallana
ibe?
(big issue is this lot are the biggest bottlers... will be see these go?)

Sturridge (can't see a real buyer)
Ings (who'd want him)
Origi


So all in all... 3 strikers enough? that midfield is ****

Even shedding 28 players there.. i've managed to not actually imporve the squad

I expect to see a LB arrive but not two so Moreno won't be going anywhere.

I'm convinced Studge will go.

That's true. But I do think a couple of targets will now go elsewhere due to us not being in Europe. Gotze being the first name that springs to mind.

The Zielinski's of the world it probably won't effect. I just hope Klopp can get them pumped for a decent push next season.

Can't say I care about the big name signings. I want a team and that's what Klopp will build.


Yeah I agree. But a couple of established players is vital. We can't JUST rely on Klopp finding gems.

It'll be an interesting summer, but a lot harder than if we'd won last night. FACT.

True but we shouldn't be expecting instant success either.

We're getting tipped for big thinks next season but we've just finished eighth!

Just because Leicester won it from nowhere doesn't mean it's suddenly going to happen every season. Normality will be restored next year.
 
i just want a player to give their all when they put on the shirt, name or no name die for the shirt you batard :emoticon-0172-mooni

i cant decide if we have too many players who are not as good as they think they are, or we have too many players who hide behind the select few in the squad who do perform.
