Go on Deano!!! Chuffed for him.

Some of the things which have gone on this summer have been a joke. I'm assuming you haven't been sent jokes on our behalf pretty much every day of the summer by friends....I certainly have. I'm delighted to see us rebuilding finally, it's been a bad summer for us. Hopefully these new players can gel quickly and we can get safe as quickly as possible. However I do still worry about our lack of goal threat. Are you telling me you were completely fine with everything when our players were continually being linked away, and players saying they want to leave, that says to me there is unrest behind the scenes. Anyway I'll always support the club no matter what, just ****ed off that we let these players go so easily. #WeMarchOn.

Great news. Top player.

One of the best pubs I've been to in Liverpool was the ship and mitre.

Cue the jokes of...."going in the direction of the championship"

Right now, no one, leave it for a year.

No. I'd rather it was given to someone who was worthy. [video=youtube;-FucbvoFFy0]

fingers crossed.

No as he doesn't play for us....

As if the expectation of being a £12m striker wasn't enough....

Sweet!!!!

Squad is stronger, team is weaker IMO. We have more depth now, although we're still severely lacking in the attacking positions IMO. Arguably need another CB too. GK (FORSTER/BORUC/DAVIS/GAZZA) vs (BORUC/DAVIS/GAZZA) - Stronger as long as Boruc stays RB (CLYNE/CHAMBERS) vs (CLYNE/MCCARTHY) - Weaker CB (LOVREN/FONTE/MAYA/JOS) vs (GARDOS/FONTE/MAYA/JOS) - Weaker - potentially just as good but I'd be surprised if Garos is on Lovren's level. LB (SHAW) vs (BERTRAND) - Weaker DM (WANYAMA/MORGAN/CORK) vs (WANYAMA/MORGAN/CORK) - Same although Morgan likely to leave. AM/RW/LW (LALLANA/DAVIS/JWP/JROD//GASTON/GULY) vs (TADIC/TAIDER/DAVIS/JWP/JROD/GASTON) - Hard to say although probably weaker with JRod injured) ST (LAMBERT/GALLAGHER) vs (PELLE/GALLAGHER/LONG) - Arguably stronger although neither are as good as Lambert. Might have missed someone.....

Good at what he does - but those stats are bent a little bit as he was injured when Boruc was. It also coincided with us playing some top teams.

Think we need a goalscoring striker as well.

Id start with Cork becuase he is an excellent DM and we'll need to be strong vs Liverpool. Maybe you're right with Gaston, but we'll need some kind of threat going forward. Maybe Taider can play out wide instead or Long will be given his debut out there. Would definietly start with Boruc, however I think Koeman will go with Forster.

BORUC CLYNE FONTE YOSHI BERTRAND CORK WANYAMA DAVIS TADIC PELLE GASTON

A better signing, proven in Europe, and a decent price.

Hear how much this deal actually was? Is 12m accurate?

Average player - hugely overpriced. Thought our club was different to the others. Oh well. 12m is a fortune to spend on a player who wont get in the team, however a decent enough alternative to Pelle for £5/6m.

If Welbeck goes to Hull for 2m more than what we pay for Long, then you have to question the board.

Definitely needs to step up if Cork is being sold.

You heard something CL?

Absolute joke if Cork goes, especially for that price.

Better not be.

Best of luck to him. Top player in the NPC and a top bloke. Although he is probably not good enough, I would have rather us get rid of Mayuka and kept Billy. He deserves to play though. No Byram then....
