It's funny how the most tormented supporters have chosen to push back on this, and I get it, but Starks has absolutely made me feel better than a night at Laser Quest. You can throw all your "Liverpool have won things, misery" tunes but that window is a disaster that quite rightly needs to be celebrated. The only thing that makes me feel better about our business right now is the clusterfuck list above. It's magical, and don't let anyone tell you it's not right to revel in the diabolical nonsense of another team to make you feel slightly better about your own nonsense, regardless of recent historyGod imagine all you melters if we were Liverpool.
New manager.
No new signings
Number one target told us to fuck off.
Three key players contracts expiring in a year
Season starts in 4 days.
Bacon’s character in Beauty Shop is one of my favourite of all time.
But some on here keep saying Werner is only a loan although there was no need to keep him. And John’s still young at 23 after how many years in the PL and champo abd has potential.
He is better than all of ours. Ive been going on about him for ages.
We don’t need explosive pace as we don’t play on the counter. We have pace with the others. We need a skilful technical player not another speed merchant.
Ok so you are happy with davies who should have been sold 5 years ago.
Johnson is indeed young and has potential to improve with age.
Personally I think we were too quick to take Werner back on loan and it makes me wonder if his resigning has made us potentially have no room for a better option.
Why’s it take a whole season for principles to bed in? Does that mean o er the course of last season the provisioned were bedding in? Meaning the players should have got the principles understood better by the end of last season. If that is the case how comes we shipped in goals for fun and results in 2024 would have us mid table. The greater the principles were locked in the worse we became.
Sane wanted him then as well.
Always loved streaky bacon x
We need creativity simple as!
reciprocated chap, you are most certainly one of the good ones
This I can get on board with to a degree.
Werner seems a lovely lad but isn’t our answer imo. He’s awful in front of goal and I think he leaves us vulnerable when he inevitably fluffs his lines.
Very much on the fence with BJ. For all the xG/xA stuff, he looks flimsy.
I’ve not gone too deep into the transfer thread, but we need consistently dangerous & productive wide players for this system to be effective.
Eze is definitely one we should be aiming for.
And he seems like a top bloke too, which we also need more of to detract from people like Biss and his balloons.
Fair point
Seems like fans have reached the desperation stage of let's just sign anyone on the market because they're good.
We play with wide wingers, so they need explosive pace (aka acceleration) to get past their fullback.
We don't need rapid pace (aka top end speed), as we don't play on the counter.
and Devine and Donley. All for 1 position. and that is a big IF that we don't see Gray as a midfielder.
Don't think Donley is athletic enough to play that role tbh. Will be interesting to see how Devine does this season if he isn't loaned out.
