Tiago Ilori

Guardian talking out of their arse

He wasnt great but he wasnt poor till he tired late on

[JermainePennant]

I saw the Guardian gave him 4/10. I thought he did well under the circumstances. Hopefully he'll get another chance on Wednesday night with Kolo who can guide him through.

Agreed, he looked good to me considering he's only been back two days and has never played with that back four and keeper.He was composed on the ball and played like he was one of the more experienced players, hopefully he gets a couple of games in the next few weeks playing next to someone with more experience.

Here is the review from The Guardian..

 

Tiago Ilori - Desperately poor. The only thing he has appeared to learn from his Villa loan is to play with his socks rolled down, Grealish style. No appetite for the fight. A liability. 4

Bit harsh that.

[TalkSilly]

He's going to have to shape up pretty quick, we've got 3 games in a week with Toure as the only fit, senior central defender, and he usually needs a mobility scooter after 70 minutes.

[Lee909]

Hopefully we will get someone cheap or on loan in the next couple of days

Hope its not that Italian from Inter though

Me neither, not keen on Subotic either. He's only played once this season through injury and loss of form. The most likely looking is Matip but Schalke don't want to sell. Even if we do wear them down it's more likely to be just before the end of the window, as Spurs did in a similar situation with Lewis Holtby a few years ago.

Cunt paper.

Danny blind isn't a big tough guy. He does alright in the centre. Give llori time and a run of games before we make judgments.

Danny Blind is 54.

Great, if he's available on a free he'll have FSG's interest.

[G Richards]

The team showed a lot of fight to get out of there without a loss. Hard to play football on that pitch. Makeshift team with loads of kids. All things taken into account, it's harsh of the Guardian to have a pop at Ilori. I think he can play and show more than we saw at Exeter, but he was not match fit and was trying to get up to speed in a makeshift set up.

 

As for the physique, loads of the players these days look like bean poles. John Stones over the park is touted as the next big thing and reportedly has a lot of teams interested, for very big money too. He's not exactly a muscular physical specimen. Gangly more like, though obviously the amount of games he's getting under his belt is improving him.

 

Ilori may or may not make it here, but he hasn't played for Villa, has been injured, and came into a makeshift side in a banana-skin of a tie, played out on a potato field. As such to emerge with a draw and keep the tie going is OK.

Champions League and UEFA cup winner. We could do with a bit of experience.

FSG withdrew their interest.

Tell them he used to play for Man City, they'll have him snapped up within the hour.

[TheHowieLama]

Hope he wears his socks at the proper level.

 

Look at the state of this cunt - and hi topped boots.

 

 

[Anubis]

Apart from his match fitness level, which is down to Villa, I thought he did pretty well. He made some important tackles, his positioning was good, and he won his headers in our area and cleared them well. He does need beefing up. But some lower league cunt pushing you into a hoarding from behind when you've just outmuscled him to a ball, does not mean you're weak.

[TheHowieLama]

I wanted him to be good - but he was blindingly meh - and the socks. Unforgivable and will prove to be unflushable. Least favorite Portuguesean on the team and I am not even sure we have another.

[VladimirIlyich]

I couldnt say he caught my eye and that went for most of the team.

If I was pressured into picking one or two who were maybe a little better than the rest I would go for Sinclair and Ojo.

The important thing was the result and we achieved a decent result without hitting any heights.

[El Dangerous]

Is this Bruno Mars looking cunt still here?

[Russ Atmosphere]

We decided long ago never to walk in anyone's sharow to jib him, hence the Villa purchase option. Guess Klopp could change all that but I just see him getting his own guys in.

Teixeira. And you probably prefer him.

[Joey8FrogsLegs]

Quite quick and decent on the ball. Would be careful to play him in heavy wind though, or in games where physical contact with opponents is required.

[JermainePennant]

Hopefully we will get someone cheap or on loan in the next couple of days

I don't see the point of bringing another CB in unless they are considerably better then what we have now, the names linked are not.We'll have 2-3 cbs returning within a month so Illori coming back should be enough imo until the summer.

Apparently a lot of full transfer documentation has been leaking out of Portugal and the Illori deal was as follows:
 

Tiago Illori (Sporting to Liverpool)

• Liverpool paid 4.8 million Euros (£3.7 million)

• Liverpool will pay 500,000 Euros after his 15th appearance

• Liverpool will pay 500,000 Euros after his 30th appearance

• Liverpool will pay 500,000 Euros after his 45th appearance

• Liverpool will pay Sporting 25% of any future transfer fee

• Liverpool cannot sell the player to Benfica, FC Porto or Braga unless they pay a minimum of 60 million Euros to which Sporting will receive 50% of

A lot less than previously suggested then.

Most pointless stipulation I've ever seen
