Been reflecting this morning. The positives of the Isidor permanent deal cannot be overstated. Having him secured for next season takes huge pressure off recruitment in the forward position, which as we all know is the hardest. Whatever happens now we will go into next season with a more than competent number 9.
Some people seem to have taken against Speakman and say he's aloof, arrogant and self-centred, fair enough ... ... but I doubt very much that he's shedding tears over Dodds or wanting one of his chums to come to hold his hand. He wants success for himself which means success for us all. If he'd wanted someone he knew RLB would've had someone forced on him, instead we waited and brought in a coach we thought was the right man. All of a sudden the whole club looks professional from top to bottom ... ... I was told last week that Doris, the tea lady, had new castors fitted to her trolley and a designer tabard with the club crest
Makes sense that the striker who comes in would be of Danns ilk. Isidor won’t be dropped especially not now. Bring a very talented lad in to compete with mayenda for Isidor’s spot and it makes sense imo. he’s been around the Liverpool first team for a while now. Started in the champions league the other night
I’d be happy with Danns. Anyone who can get near that Liverpool front 3 must be a decent player. A quality winger as well and we would have really good options
I worry because he isn’t being loaned to not play surely in our out of possession 442 shape I’d imagine he’d be alongside isidor we’re arguably most balanced for 433 with the arrival of le fee interesting challenge for the gaffer
Danns is physically ready for the championship which is the main thing with PL loans. Burstow was eaten alive by championship CBs, Danns won't be.
I've got to get the little one to a park. I can see it now, she'll be hanging off the monkey bars screaming DAD but I'll be like hang on we are after some unknown French guy from Belguim.
Pacey as well, I've always liked him when I've seen him play I think this would be a smart signing, obviously we would still need 2/3 more in but Danns would be good He's not guaranteed starts with us but he also isn't at Blackburn, he will get more minutes at us than he would at Liverpool Plus it's the experience of playing for a big club that's pushing for a promotion, would be a great sell to them
Where did Echo get £20m figure for Watson from? Or do we think they just plucked that out of thin air to say we might get an offer we can’t refuse?
You don't set foot on the pitch at Liverpool without having fought to get there. He'll be coming to understudy Isidor but won't be shy if he's brought on as a sub imo. He'll hit the ground running unlike some of the 'jet watch brigade' people have been getting excited about. And won't expect a cosy three year contract only to want away if we don't go up.
