Xherdan Shaqiri

[KopOut]

Klopp must rate him. In Klopp we trust.

First picture from the Offal. Right into the Chupa Chups I see.

Can't wait for the pics of him leaning on something at Melwood.

Hopefully it can withstand the ram.

Joyce saying Harry Wilson could be going to to Stoke on loan as part of the deal.

 

Hopefully he should get a lot of games for them.

Not leaning there though is he? More wobbling.

They're probably trying to get a loan deal in as a sweetener.

It’s not a sweetener. It’s sugar coated.

[VladimirIlyich]

I'm hearing that he's trying to get beans included in his farmhouse breakfast.

Avoid. An obvious wrong 'un.

[moof]

Medical tomorrow. Welcome, toblerone tits

I guess we would then know if he is capable of consistently performing on a cold rainy night?

Welcome Shaqiri.

 

He will be a good signing for us.

 

Klopp will inspire him.

[dockers_strike]

Has not passed the medical yet. And we know how that works out.

[LFC 6 Times]

Boss little signing, a game changer for 13 mil, versatile, played at 2 top clubs before, cracking strike, set piece taker, left footed and very explosive. Don’t understand how anyone can see any negative in this transfer, at absolute worst case scenario you’d flog him for 15-20 million.

He's definitely gonna break the machines at his medical and fail it. Cos he's of a heavy disposition. Get it? So funny. 

[sir roger]

Saw a report that Stoke are looking at Ojo rather than Wilson as a potential loanee.

[3 Stacks]

 

All the goals he's scored for Stoke. Most of which were absolute slappers. People saying they don't want that for like 13m? Please. 

[suzy]

My only complaint is every time I hear his name I started singing ‘shakiri sharkiri’ in a ‘hips don’t lie’ stylee

If you use the term "absolute slappers" to describe goals, then you are indeed indulging in an "episode of wham".

[Ne Moe Imya]

Whether Shaqiri is a success or not will boil down to whether Klopp can convince him to stop taking bad shots or not.

 

If he can get it through his head that just cycling the ball back to Fabinho or Keita is better than a 27-yard shot, because those players still have the likes of Firmino or Mane ahead of them, then he'll be a solid backup. If he thinks "I must be the hero, BLAM!" every time he gets in the opposition third, then he'll be sold next summer.

[Anubis]

Just need to find him something sturdy to lean on and we're done.

It's not just me then.

[ZonkoVille77]

I've no issue with him taking 27 yard shots. We need someone with the balls to do that. Coutinho was the only one we had since Gerrard stopped doing it. The element of surprise is essential.

Just having somebody on the pitch capable of scoring those occasionally gives defenders an extra thing to worry about.

 

Imagine it's 20 odd yards out, as it stands they aren't expecting a shot so they choose to mark the attackers in the box instead of closing down.

 

With shaqiri they'd have to come out and put pressure on so he cant get a shot off, pulling them out of position leaving space for our front 3.
