Heaven forbid someone be autistic and misspell a name on here once in a while.

Does anyone have any real confidence in this club to sign quality players that improve us....
We know they will just sign more 3rd rate players like the ones we already have, it's a never ending cycle of mediocrity...
Also a genuine question, does anyone know who the last real quality player we bought that actually improved our first 11 ? I have no idea who that was or when ?

Look at his stats cocker!

Which stats in particular? When I've watched him, he might nick a ball here and there, that being classed as a tackle or sometimes interception, but that's a very different thing to what most people would call "hard-tackling" - it's not as though he's a known tough guy bulldog type of tackler, the kind who would normally collect cards for fun. I'm not sure there is a stat easily available to measure that "destroyer" type of tackler, but having seen him play a few times, that's not his game at all.

The insight of that Ali Gold cretin:


“From what I understand, there’s nothing more than interest at this stage from Tottenham," said Gold.

"Sometimes when I get told that by various people, it’s because the club have got an inkling that they want to go elsewhere.

“It could just be the finances aren’t quite where they want them to be at this stage of the window, or it could be a variety of things – I’m not saying it’s one of those things.

“Presumably there will be more to it, and it will come out in the fullness of time, or maybe that’s just the case for now and they do kick into gear and make a move for him.”

Can we extend that no dickeads policy to journos who cover Spurs?

Bye Ali Gold, Matt Law, Ben Jacobs...

Yeah, Trippier, Son and VdV are the three on that list that you can say are unequivocally good buys. Then there are some decent buys: Romero, Madders, Porro, Solanke.

Micky's played 40 PL games out of a possible 76. Can't head the ball. Out of position too many times to count. Isak bummed him like I rarely seen a defender get bummed.

But yeah he's lightning quick, got a great assist in the league vs United, then saved Vic & Ange's asses in the EL final.

10 out of 5 stars.

Neither does Elliot

Tbh, least season, on top form, Kulusevski was outperforming all of Liverpool’s 10’s. Szoboslai has basically been a flop

If Szobo wanted out cause of Wirtz and LFC didn't mind letting him go, even on loan, I'd take him without blinking. Could be Rafa v2.0 for us. Man is a zillion times better than Bentancur, Biss and Kulu combined. A peak Szobo also gives the best version of Madders a serious run for his money.

I’m giving up on this wee shit buying some players it’s the same old Levy waiting to the last day of the transfer window and he will lose Eze to the darkside. Others are buying now to give the coach time to get them working in unison with the whole team. Every year the same!

I think there might be a case of letting Frank evaluate what we got before selling and buying. Are the players back in training yet? Give Frank a week after that before you get to negative.

You drastically overrate anyone else’s players and the exact opposite for ours.

It’s weird mate

Szobo hasn’t been given Madders a run for anything since he arrived at Liverpool

They signed Wirtz because they don’t know what he is
