Liverpool - It's not looking too bad in the transfer market

He still generally gets done over by Jose in the one-liners/pre-match quips/put down stakes! His 'specialist in failure' quip was quip of the year - though it came back to bite him somewhat too, which was good to see!

BR doesn't even bother with that stuff, he just gets on with the Football talk.

Jose was the only one that could regularly do a better put-down than ORN, which was entertaining to watch the reaction!

Real master of the one-liner!

No, not really, best he sticks to the football management.

Not a very classy response from Wenger that imo.

He's the type of person who gives but can't take it.
 
Manquillo is on Merseyside for his medical, Moreno deal looking like being sorted. 2 very exciting young Spanish full backs coming in over the next few days.

Ballotelli deal looking more and more like it could happen, for £14M, could be deal of the transfer window.

Reus rumours seem to be gathering more and more momentum and starting to pop up in a lot of places.
 
I'd love to see Balotelli back in the Prem,never a dull moment with him.
If he got his head down he could be a good signing,but it's a Big IF.

Balotelli would be great for you. Plus he never misses penalties.

I'd start wrapping Lovren in cotton wool you've broken Lallana (physically) and Lambert (pen record) and they come in threes!!

I always hated Balotelli, but then again I also said that he is one of those players that you could only love if he played for your team. That would be a great replacement for Suarez IMO, as he has the ability to score plenty and then it means the likes of Sterling and Couthino will have to absorb the chance creating that Suarez did.

Yeah he's an entertainer for sure. Not sure how sturridge would react though as I get impression he always wants to be the main man. And although that was Suarez last season. Suarez seemed more inclined to share the limelight tha. Either sturridge or balotel

I think Sturridge and Balotelli could work well together as they are both a bit eccentric. Have you not seen some of the videos that Sturridge makes of himself singing and messing around.

Balotelli always looks like the sort of player who wants to be let loose on the pitch in a fast attacking team and he would certainly get that under Rogers.

i have no doubts of sturridge being a free spirit. But have also seen plenty of on field antics with strops when not passed to etc which all good strikers do. I can just envisage a big game where they bith go for glory themselves instead of thinking if the team. I remember one if sturridge first games for England being partnered with welbeck who at the time was ahead of him in the pecking order. He spent 60 minutes trying flicks and tricks before getting subbed as he'd done nothing if any use all game.

Dont nut get me wrong they could flourish, and brseems good at handling egos.

Will be interesting to see.
 
Well after the Man U game last night Liverpool need a goal scorer to replace LS , that was clear last night and Rogers has bought all the wrong players and to be honest he will not replace LS and do they have the money to buy a Carvani and do that type of player want to go there , It be a long season that will get longer if they dont match last season as judging by what is posted on here liverpool fans expect a lot more even without LS

Most of the players Rodgers has bought didnt play last night and the window hasnt closed yet

One result doesnt change anything especially in pre season - still a long way to go yet.

Not sure where Liverpool fans have stated they expect more than last season? i most certainly dont "expect more"

Thats because they are injured and you dont expect much this season , did you say that with yer fingers, legs and everthing else crossed , They need to buy a striker to replace LS and Rogers has bought lots just like spurs did last year , over 100m spent and need to spent more , only guy available that can sort of do it is Mario and he is an explosive firecracker

When did i say i dont expect much ?

I know we need a striker and so does Rodgers and will be looking for one

Our squad was thin last year and we are in process of filling it and buying the right type of players and players the manager wants - its nothing like what SPurs did last summer and most people can see the clear difference

He got rid of Andy Carrol and buys Lambert , same type of player , they have spent just as much or even more then spurs , too many new players need time to bed in and if results are not great and because of expectations the unrest will grow quickly

Lambert is a 3 mil back up striker who will add something a little different but is also comfortable with the ball at his feet and doesnt spend 6 months each year injured

The players we have bought - 4 of them are youngsters who will be developing their careers and wont be straight into the first team - 2 more are established prem proven players and the other is a back up player. Its quite simple to see if someone has the foresight to look past the figures.

BR is building a squad - he will be given time to build that squad
