Oh God! I know I more meant it'd be fascinating if Liverpool let 2 of their best 3 players (Salah/Mane/VVD) go in the the same window.
Whomever they got in, they couldn't replace him.

We would need to strengthen the other areas too.Kane, Son, Kulusevski, Richarlison and Raphinha. If we have that five to choose from we will genuinely push Man City for the title. That is how tantalisingly close we are so the club should simply be brave and get both the Brazilians in this summer.
Fair; by call out I meant I would criticise their opinions- no personal insults.It's not about 'levels' - they are very different players, and for many on here, the Richarlison type of player is a better fit for us / Conte than the Raphinha type of player. "Calling out" people just because they have a different opinion to you on a couple of players is a bit arrogant / ignorant as far as I'm concerned.
Of course we have the money, even if we had to find a bit extra it would be a no brainer. Opportunities to win the title don't come along very often so why not grab this chance while we can.We have the money for it even if we only have net spend of £120m, as I calculated earlier on this thread
I do not see why Richarlison is rated so highly.Richarlison is more important than Raphinha. Suits our needs much more. And has the sort of mentality that we need to inject into the side.
I don't care if Raphinha goes to Woolwich. He'd just be another enemy.
Fair enough - it's an interesting debate - reading the last 50 or so pages over the last few days, I'd say people on here are split roughly 50/50 on which is the better player, and which is the better fit for us... For me, whichever one Conte thinks can work best in his system, that's the one I'd want. And again IMO, given how important work rate is to Conte, I'd expect that to be Richarlison (but can see why others would prefer the technical superiority of Raphinha).Fair; by call out I meant I would criticise their opinions- no personal insults.
True; but bear in mind fans sometimes do mental gymnastics in favour of the player we are more likely to sign vs the player Woolwich are.I'd say people on here are split roughly 50/50 on which is the better player, and which is the better fit for us...
There is a premium there because he is is proven and knows the English game. The assumption is, he will be less of a risk.I do not see why Richarlison is rated so highly.
I don’t think people here that rate him at £30-35m and Winks the other way have watched him at all. That is WAY more than he is worth.
And a creative CM.Rwb and lcb, which is part of the plan and the money is there. Like has been said, we can buy both Brazilians as well as strengthen these two positions.
Agree we could do with one more after Richarlison if Berg goes. And it's more likely to be a promising talent like De Ketelaere than Raphinha, who looks a bit too pricey for what he'll give us.Richarlison & Charles De Ketelaere could be a nice blend; with the latter probably being a bit more patient in terms of game-time.
But yeh; Lucas very much ticks that box in the meantime.
(I think a big factor that's been missing in the past is to sub the likes of Son & Kane off when the games in the bag..... Poch was crap at this. Hopefully the 5 sub rule changes things.)
You don’t rate him because your opinion is atrocious and you’re a goonerI do not see why Richarlison is rated so highly.

"Barcelona are hoping Tottenham can convince France centre-back Clement Lenglet, 27, to move to the Premier League so that the La Liga side can start a summer clear-out of players." (ESPN)"
makes us sound like a rubbish bin...really insulting....espn is an American network so I really don't know what to make of this statement but I'm definitely not happy about it....
Traore would fit that bill. He really can cause havoc.Attacking mid I think means a 10, an Eriksen, Maddison type, or a wide attacker that can come inside and cause havoc ie Raphinha, Paqueta, Saint Maxim. Basically a player that operates in the attacking third. Centre mid is sorted with the 4 we have.
My few cents on Lengelt from what I've seen of him - decent in the air, scores a few headers. Good long pass BUT has a tendency to dive into a tackle way too much and commits himself. can be wreckless.
Looks great when he wins the tackle as the first comp will show however if he get's done, it's impossible to recover as per comp 2.
**to clarify the second clip is only 3 mins odd and also includes errors from Pique and Umtiti.
It will be a cold day in Hell when Richarlison can push our current front 3. He is nowhere near Kane, Son and Kulu. NOWHERE near. We can do so much better at the amount of money Everton feel he is worth.There is a premium there because he is is proven and knows the English game. The assumption is, he will be less of a risk.
