Yeh there is the human side, it’s why I never hate anyone who puts our shirt on. If a player gives 110% and isn’t good enough we have to sell but I’ll never dislike a player who gave his all.
It can’t be easy for Poch to bring the likes of Trippier or Waynama into a room and say sorry you have to go.
Making the CL (if we do) > than League position - that's what Liverpool fans told me last year.
Unless there's a pot to show for it, league finishing position trumps all for me.
It's our bread & butter.
Cool - I am choosing to judge Liverpool by their own logic.
I can imagine a section of ignorant Liverpool fans saying similar things about Andy Robertson in 2017.
If anything this season will have humbled sessengnon and made him realise he has to work to improve. The path to the top is not smooth.
Indeed, I said as much year and I stand by it; least of all cos of the piss easy run they had to their final.
My opinion is that it's not black and white. Depends on the league position (and by what magnitude).
Personally, 3rd and 4th are damn near interchangeable and I think making it to a CL final in addition to finishing 4th is preferable to 3rd (definitely makes more money and boosts your UEFA coefficient).
As for this season, I absolutely hope they get bashed with it if we got to the final and they fall just short of the league title. The caveat to that, however, is just how much ground they've put between us and them in 2nd. Then again, our injuries etc give us some mitigating factors this season.
Funnily enough, a deep CL push is exactly what our club needed right now as it'll do wonders for our profile and will no doubt add value to the naming rights deal being sorted.
To be honest, I wouldn't want it. Building a house on sand rather than rock, and all that.
Poch clearly signalling an overhaul in the summer and I'd much rather see him build a team with promising youth who spend the year getting familiar with one another. The addition of an (injury prone) Bale who then gets ripped out of the squad within a year doesn't breed long term success.
I would, however, want it if ENIC seriously fuck up the transfer window and we find ourselves with trousers round our ankles holding our dicks with no other alternative.
We need to fill holes and buy talent for the future. Sessegnon would play for us but would be more for the future. Wan Bissaka and Tielemans would both significantly upgrade us now and are both 21 years old. They should be the priority signings.
That said, with Fulham getting relegated it makes sense to wrap up sessegnon quickly if possible.

Someone disagreeing with a post about signing a player before pre season
Ironic you get upset by disagrees.Someone disagreeing with a post about signing a player before pre season
Yes. We have to let it go.
No one is upset schmood, we're all looking forward to the summer transfer window with excitement, we're going to spend big, we're going to improve the squad.
It's a pity some of our fellow 'supporters' are in disagreement with the idea of strenghthening the squad.
But Eriksen takes up one place, that’s three.

Which supporters are they?
If we sign Sessegnon at 18, will he count as club trained player after 3 years?
Those that disagree with the club signing players.
