Liverpool looking to offload Darwin for 40-50m (and I reckon it’ll be nearer 40). If you take “tap ins” out of the equation, this guy does everything else pretty damn well. Presses really well, great engine, great movement, quick strong, technically decent. Can play across the front 3. Despite missing sitters, the guy was still a 1 in 2 gpg last year.

Also maybe Luis Diaz is on the list too. Wouldn’t turn my nose up.

He’s fucking terrible!

But I wouldn’t be surprised if we saw a Forman situation with him where he goes to Spain and sees him bang them in.

Agree- I always liked KWP and thought he got a bad rap, but it remains to be seen if the club brain trust think similarly.

For me the one that really got away lately was Tanganga as a defensive RB, and to a lesser extent Skipp as a CDM.

All those plus sessegnon are championship players. They don’t have the ability or consistency to play regular premier league football. KWP did and got relegated. Skipp wasn’t first choice at Leicester.

I'm loving your enthusiasm and I hope to God you're right.

But in my opinion, we will get 1 of them at best! Levy won't change. I hope he proves me wrong but actions speak louder than words.

I’m expecting him to change now. He’s told us that anything less would be an unacceptable failure.

Don’t see why we would let him off the hook by lowering our expectations when he’s told us himself what to expect

Hope so. I'd like to see us sign an experienced midfielder like Palinha or Douglas Luiz. someone who's ready now but will probably require 200k a week wages. Then I'd like to see us keep Romero and invest big money into our attack. 2 of them players you mentioned would be a dream

I'm actually gone off the idea of throwing 80m+ at Wharton or Baleba.. I think Archie Gray, Sarr and Bergval all have the ability to become top players. Archie maybe even becomes a proper 6 down the line. But while we are waiting for their progression, why not just get someone properly experienced in who can do a really good job for 2/3 seasons. So my preference now is Luiz/Palinha. Both would walk into our team and instantly make us far better. Bentancur would be brilliant beside either of them. Basically a massive upgrade on Bissouma.

This will require Levy to bust up our wage structure a bit. Experienced players who are ready to win now usually want 200k a week!
