Our defence is awful but migs has had half as many saves to make!! Mignolet has kept us in the race for top 4 recently. If only he could improve his distribution......he's improved every other part of his game imo. GK not a priority this summer...
If we have a budget of £200m as has been rumoured (I know, I know...), imagine what some of the others are about to spend At what point does it become so obscene that we begin to turn off or go and watch non league football??
Jurgen Klopp has some new problems ahead of the summer transfer window as top European clubs are yet again circling around for their prized asset, Philippe Coutinho. The Brazilian playmaker has been superb this season for the Reds and is one of the most important players in the squad at the moment. He was linked with a move to Barcelona in the January transfer window but Liverpool got him to sign a new deal that could keep him at the club for a longer time. However, that does not seem to be working as reports suggest that Catalan giants Barcelona have opened talks with the player and his representatives over a move this summer. Coutinho is settled and may not be up for sale but according to Spanish news outfit Don Balon, Klopp is already eyeing his replacements. Real Madrid playmaker Isco is currently one of the most productive players in Europe and the Liverpool manager seems to be convinced that he could be a perfect replacement for the Brazilian if he quits Anfield at the end of the season. With 10 goals and 7 assists to his name in all competitions this season, Isco has played a huge role in taking Real Madrid closer to the top of the La Liga points table, and also their 12th Champions League trophy. Nimble feet with exceptionally gifted technique – Isco is one of the best dribblers in the world at the moment and is a player who is hard to mark.
I don't think Coutinho is that important to the team. We saw Lallana come in for him last game and do a great job. I think players like Firmino and Mane are more difficult to replace in terms of doing a specific job. Coutinho is "only" an excellent player who could be replaced by almost any other excellent player. Not that I want him to leave for less than Pogba's fee.
Real are reportedly eyeing a shock swoop for Liverpool star Georginio Wijnaldum. Los Blancos had hoped to sign Chelsea’s Eden Hazard, but he appears to be out of reach. And according to Italian news outlet Tutto Mercato Web, Real have already held talks with the player’s agent. Wijnaldum joined the Reds from Newcastle last summer for £25m.
the fee for windy who can only play at home start at 50mil would love to see us make a quick buck and move on here.. most of our players are replaceable.
If we got enough money to replace him with a 20+ goal a season forward we'd be better off #justsaying
I do like Gini but he does go missing in the games where we have possession and need to create from deep. I think Mignolet had more touches than him vs Watford. His impact in the big games is huge though. However, he is still playing in a relatively new position so is still adapting. I would like to see him in a more attacking position and maybe we will see more from him.
Premier League giants Liverpool have made an offer for 19-year-old Atletico Madrid defender Theo Hernandez, currently on loan at Deportivo Alaves. According to journalist Roger Torello of Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, the highly sought after fullback, who is currently spending a season out on loan at FC Alaves, is set to hold talks with his agent and come to a decision about his next possible destination. The report states that besides the likes of Barcelona, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich and Paris Saint-Germain, the 19-year-old defender also has an offer from Premier League side Liverpool. The Reds are in dire need of a talented left-back in their squad and Theo would perfectly fit the bill.
he is twice the player at home and looks out of sorts away at times and nervy. I don't know what it is. he's got the work rate and the ability to play on half tru nand shown real ability in box with head and shooting but he then vanishes. He played CM for years before going to newkie. IMO this is not new to him. he was captain at PSV. He's good. but... i don't get the away form at all. As i said the bids start at 50.... this is england you are dealing with real
