True. I'd be happier still if we had someone even richer than the sheikhs though. Still can't understand why work hasn't started to extend the Kemlyn/Kenny Rd stand yet, let alone the Anny Rd.
I read somewhere that FSG wanted to ensure that there would be demand for tickets if they extended further. They also had their plans for higher prices scuppered a while back. They will very much look for a good return on any investment.....if it was clear cut, I’d wager that we would have already started work
Yes, I do not think Real Madrid wants to sell especially to Liverpool. Selling to Liverpool they want a player from Liverpool too.
The Anfield road end is the only possible extension. The fact is the club had ownership of houses on the centenary side of the ground but sold them back and would need imo about 3 rows of houses to add a 3rd tier to the centenary stand. The reasons being the stand is already at the maximum rake on that second tier. Further the stand already has corporate boxes so youd be doing probably 200mil to get in 7k general.admission fans. so it will never happen. the Anfield road stand is like pulling teeth. the reasons seem varied. a) project management capacity (poor reason imo) get Kirby done first is clubs excuse. b) enabling works are huge. there's a lot of services under the road that need to move to enable the new stand. the club is pretty lazy about spending on those. c) current stand design gives 4-5k more general.admission tickets. not enough. d) there's a big issue with away fans to resolve. the mooted cost was barely.one player now. the Anfield road end should be done even with a marginal business case but it doesn't seem to be how fsg work
If we are taking the red glasses off: Robertson: Top 5 left fulls in europe. Jordi Alba has to be on the list imo. Alaba has to be on the list sandro has to be on the list Kurzawa (PSG has to be close) Robertson should be on same list some people seem to want to have luis at atletico or marcello at real or alonso at cheslea or ghoulam at napoli... On Firmino... A false 9 should at least arrive in the box for me. Firmino doesn't do it enough. he allows salah and mane do this. He's almost an advanced 8 or a real 10 than a false 9. he works best for me almost on half way line
IMO the ticket SHAMBLES that cost us 2 points shocked FSG. Theres no question at all theres demand... absolutely none. theres a 20 year wait for season tickets. anfield is sold out constantly. The issue for me is theres no business case to add general admission tickets. The planning WILL lapse. we wont hear a thing about this until September IMO. then it will lapse and a new submission will be made for a 63k total capacity but its not going to be easy squeeze in that many and the away fans issue won't go away.
price? I mean he's a big lad, and powerful but he's in an area we are well stocked in. If anything if lallana was going sure why not. he'd cost an absolute fortune though.
Ndombele on Spurs hopes Tanguy Ndombele joined Spurs earlier this week for big money. He’s been speaking on his future at the club. “It’s very simple for me – Spurs are in the top four teams right now in England. I believe that my style of play is well suited to English football and Tottenham are giving me the opportunity to show that, so I am extremely happy to be here. “For me, it’s been a dream of mine since I was a kid to play in the Premier League. Now I can make that dream come true right here. I can’t wait, I’m excited at being able to play in the Premier League and I’m hoping that we can achieve great things with the team. “I hope to be able to bring what I know I can do – to do my bit for the team. The squad works really well together so I hope to start well, integrate, settle into the group and then continue in the same way. To win silverware, that’s also why I am here.” please log in to view this image
I would have robbo near the top. Having watched very little of the other lbs except in the cl, sandro alaba have big reps but have never really done it for me. Robbos pace and energy is a huge factor. Only alba is comparible for me. Kurzawa is new and hasnt really done anything?
Don't know whether he's "the bestest in the world" or not but... I wouldn't swap Robbo for any other LB in the world!
To me. Robbo is second to none, age is on his side, if he is available for transfer, Barcelona, Real Madrid, PSG are going to be all over us
Market is heating up. Felix to Atletico, Greizmann to Barca. Neymar to barca Coutinho to PSG Dembele must go, barca are pushing him out for griezmann and neymar. Utd are buying every journeyman in the prem. City are spending on DMs and CBs and the like So far we are doing nothing. I think our plans are set a long time ago so i doubt we will step in and poach unless one of our actual list is available at the right price.
the links with him are about the only ones which have seemed even slightly feasible . They happily "print" any old **** these days.
