Please for the love of everything that is holy, sign a left back now.

Actually, thinking about it, I'd still like this, but if the new signings are all they're cracked up to be, I'll be less nervous than I would have been.

 

Even if we start with Moreno, we're less reliant on him to do any attacking, because we've added pace and goals ahead of him.  And even if he makes the same number of defensive fuck-ups, he has better defenders and a better goalkeeper to make sure they're not as costly.

Klavan didn't lean... I need a really boss lean to balance that out.

I saw a picture of Klavan leaning on Daniel Sturridge last season. He recovered from his injuries after.

 

That's a lean that any player would be happy with.

Never heard of the cunt

 

All you need to know is this:

 

The last two players we signed who were previous "Eredivisie Player of the Year" recipients - Kuyt and Suarez

 

The last two players who we signed from a club managed by Rafa Benitez - Sturridge and (sort of) Coutinho

and the last two players we signed from Newcastle where Carroll and Enrique.....

 

For the record I think he'll be a good signing for us.

I was complaining about this signing not making a lot of sense given the price and the position he plays (unless we're planning to sell Lallana) but I've just seen that Everton have offered 25m for ...

 

...

 

... Gylfi Sigurdsson!

 

So now I'm feeling like we may have gotten a bit of a bargain, really.

Better get ready for the Gylfi>Gini posts on GOT.

Wasn't Didi the last midfielder that we bought from them? Played one season in the league with the barcodes,moved to us. Anything close to 1 big ears, a europa, 2 fa cups and 2 league cups and I'd be very happy.

Do our transfer committee not feel even the slightest twinge of embarrassment regarding the fact that for all their supposed knowledge and data, they pretty much just end up letting other teams in the league do the their scouting for them at a huge mark up?

We learned everything we know from Tottenham

There certainly have been some bad ones, but didnt they suggest Mane and Rodgers said no before He went to Southampton?

I don't think it's the suggested players that's the problem, they've picked Costa before his breakout season as a central striker, Willian, Texeiria, Sanchez, Mikhytaryan, Salah, Konoplyanka, Gylfi plus they've got some good ones signed, Coutinho and Sturridge were brilliant signings for the price. The problem is actually getting the deals done and when we don't we then overpay for the likes of Wijnaldum and Benteke which then doesn't make sense. I think Wijnaldum will be a good signing to be honest we've just grossly overpaid for another Premier League player again.

How much do you reckon he's worth?

I have no idea but I wouldn't have no more than £15m for him, I think for a bit more than £25m we could have got Dahoud or a better player. I know his contracts nearly up but Utd didn't pay much more than that for Mikhytaryan.
