It's the press resistance and ball carrying that's the magic ingredient...... And the hardest thing to source.
Phillips is more of a grafting #8 with the occasional sweet pass.

And you're too chicken to accept. I say we score the same or more goals as last season. £20 to the charity of the winner's choice.
But you won't accept the bet, because all the shit you're posting is exactly that: shit. So come on, big guy. Put your money where your mouth is, since you're so fucking sure.

piss off twat
For the first 3/4 years of Klopp that wasn't true....... It's only the last 2 seasons that they've had decent domestic cup runs.
No, why would they? Judging by the reactions the fact alone that we didn't seal the Fati deal means the world as we know it is ending.
Chicken to even lay just a £20 wager that's going to go to a good cause on something that you are absolutely sure about.
Pathetic state of you...
If we loan or just accept nominal fees
SANCHEZ: YEARS LEFT 1 = 3.3m
REGUILLON: YEARS LEFT 2 = 5m
TANGANGA: YEARS LEFT 2 = 2.6m
£0
Write off
NDOMBELE: YEARS LEFT 2 = 20.8m
LLORIS: YEARS LEFT 1 = 5m
DIER: YEARS LEFT 1 = 4.4m
£30.2m
Sell PEH
+£30M + Save £10.6 =£40.6
Keep perisic
Gill try, and then loan/sell
Can basically balance the net loss to about 0 assuming Spence / sess should be able to loan/sell
All while clearing the decks.
Not quite as bleak (though should also consider what the value on the books for each are as well. Guessing ndombele, gill, spence, maybe sess still adds 10m+ to that
But frankly, I would say that means the most painful part of the rebuild is then done in 1 go.
Still have a money printing machine (and cash injection left overs, and kane, etc) to buy a couple of good ready for first team squad now players. And, room for pathways for what looks like a pretty good crop coming through.
Sure, it's a fucking shit show given we were CL regulars and finalists.... But, if we keep buying more udogies, sarrs, bissoumas, bentancurs, maddisons than sissokos.. Despite the oh not again shit show of Fulham, fati, etc, taking a step back it's not as bleak as maybe we think..
Yeh, wasn't making such a simplistic claim as that......
.........But at the same time (for just one of MANY examples); you honestly think Fati goes to Brighton if we had Europe and they didn't?
A player like Biss isn't everyday squad-fodder..... Those attributes are gold-dust;
At least it was very very fucking funny this evening watching the 'ITKs' on SC jump hard onto the Fati train (after already reported in the media. Funny that) only to suddenly find themselves in the mud as he suddenly looks to be going to Brighton.
Or maybe, just maybe, numerous scouts and a really good manager can see how he’d improve our team?
No, they weren't.

You're still asking for players to get close to or exceed their best ever seasons across multiple different positions. That's an incredibly unlikely scenario.
Sure, maybe 2/3 of them could, but to expect so many to repeat it is extremely optimistic. E.g. Bentancur scored 2 Serie A goals in his 5 seasons with Juve but you're citing a half-season where he managed to score 5, an outlier. You might argue he was playing a different role but surely he's not gonna play such an incredibly attacking role for us that it makes that stat worthless. In any case, he'll be out till Jan/Feb, if he even returns to his old self.
You're also expecting players like Emerson, Skipp, PEH to score a few when they most likely will get the most token minutes at best. BTW, Skipp has scored only one competitive goal in his Spurs career.
That's just asking for too much from too many different players.

Like they did with Richarlison and Ndombele, and Sessegnon, and Reguilon, and Sanchez, and Lo Celso, and Gil and Bergwijn and....
LOL....... You should "piss off" to a creche, you big stroppy baby..
If your argument depends on the notion that none of our fwds will score all season, then it's a shit argument.
bus-conductor
can you make a wankhorn starting 11
Would these be the same honchos that already decided to buy Kulusevski a few weeks ago - the guy who will be replaced by Johnson? And Richarlison for 60m?
My cup of trust does not runneth over.
So no-one is coming.
Our back-up defenders are either sold or crap
Ange is going to need several more windows !!
Roll on January.

Well, his argument was largely dependent on that idea none-the-less......... I'm sure he could answer for himself if he wasn't prone to toddler-like tantrums.
Like they did with kulusevski and bentancur and udogie and van der ven and vicario and Romero and Sarr and bissouma
We have no idea how Johnson will turn out, but writing him off before he even gets here is pointless
