What a load of boll*x.

Cheers Captain Obvious.

Neil Shipperley got done for less in the 96 quarter final.

He's nothing like Pelle or Carroll.

No he wasn't.

Cup semi final at Anfield, did it a couple of times to great effect. Not seen it since.

Got to wonder what Klopp was up to in the off-season... sounds like he was a very busy man!

Maybe he was meant to, but refused to play?

He doesn't really say that at all - he says Barcelona think they fact Liverpool are signing Ox and in talks about Lemar/VVD means they would be open to selling Coutinho, but then says Liverpool are not entertaining selling him.

That's based on the assumption we'd actually hit the target in the first place

Congratulations on interpreting that from what he said.

Stephens over Yoshida? Really? Personally think he's been one of our better performers this season and Stephens has shown his naivety. Plus think we need the experience next to Hoedt to help him settle.

Yeah, won't be holding my breath then.

Maybe the clubs stance in the past was right, selling players that don't want to be here. Our best player is on strike and showing no signs of relenting. Our England international left back has been phoning it in since the end of last season. Tadic looks a busted flush. Would much rather give my support to players that actually want to be here and give their all, even if that is just for 2 years before they leave. You can see something clearly isn't right and the current attitude of some of our more 'senior' pros must be having an effect.

Pretty much sums it up for me. I was a little encouraged by Boufal, in that he seems to have got a bit stronger and was winning the ball back a fair bit. Yeah, he gave the ball away a fair bit in the second half, but at least he was trying to create something. Unfortunately when you've got absolutely f*** all movement from anyone of your teammates, it's pretty hard to do that. I've not been one to hammer JWP, but f*** me he was absolutely abysmal. The guy needs about 6 touches to decide what he's going to do. Pathetic when it comes to tackling. Just offers absolutely nothing. What worries me is we've got a lot of attacking options, but I'm not sure any of them are actually that good. Gabbi aside, would any of Redmond, Tadic, Long, Austin, Boufal be guaranteed starters for any top half teams?

Sounds familiar....

Oops.

Absolute madness rejecting that.

Imagine it will be Jack and Hoedt starting and Yoshida on the bench.

No chance we will be going with VVD, Hoedt, Stephens, Yoshida and Bednarek. If Hoedt comes in then I'd be staggered if that doesn't mean VVD is off.

Wimmer - doesn't inspire me in the slightest. How anyone can be worth 4/5 times more than they were bought for, whilst only playing 15 times in 2 years? Personally think we need an absolute beast, someone who dominates our area and wins headers. They don't have to be brilliant on the bqll as think Stephens can take that role. Anyone seen anything of Wimmer to know what sort of CB he is?

What on earth has the GK and Defenders got to do with not scoring?

Still amazes me how many people think Boufal, Redmond and Tadic in the same team is a good idea.
