January 2018 Transfer Thread

[The Golden Eel]

With Sturridge now gone, are we seriously going to leave it to Solanke and Ings to be our back up strikers????

 

Especially with the Firmino racism stuff still unresolved. I'm no huge fan of Sturridge but I'd rather have him than not have him until the summer. Neither Ings nor Solanke have even scored a goal for us for goodness sake. It's absurd.

 

Edit, sorry, Ings has but not under Klopp.

[Horus]

So whatever happened to the "mystery player" we were going to sign ?

 

He was such a mystery that even the club didn't know about him.

[Captain Turdseye]

Thom Yorke - Radiohead

 

 

 

 

 

Adam Lallana - Mainly in Bed

 

[INTORRESTING]

He was such a mystery that even the club didn't know about him.

Ha, how pathetic was that.  

[rubble-rouser]

Unbelievable that we started this window full of optimism. 

 

We've signed a very good CB - seemed like a statement of intent at the time - and still managed to weaken our squad.

[Evil_Ways]

Really is bizarre if we dont do anything else this window.

CL and a fight for top 4 with only 3 good options up front.

Which means they pretty much have to play in every one of the remaining games.

[Wezza]

Last week they announced that the Doomsday Clock moved to 2 minutes to midnight (or as close to the end of the world as is possible without it actually ending!). Most observers said this was due to a forthcoming global apocalypse, but those in the know agree that it was in response to no more incomings at Anfield before the end of the transfer window and the subsequent fall out.

[aRdja]

We’re the only club vying for the top 4 spot who have managed to weaken our squad in this window. You gotta admit, the audacity is somewhat impressive.

[Boss]

I'd go to City and ask them to name their price for Phil Foden. The kid has all the tools to be as good as Coutinho. 

[El Rojo]

If they'd any sense they would have jettisoned Coutinho before announcing VVD as a modest, pointing bollard on the shore of the Ocean of Fume.

 

Agree completely though -  we're a worse team now than we were at the start of the month.

FSG will look back and give absolutely zero fucks about that.

[Numero Veinticinco]

Probably sat there, stroking a cat, laughing maniacally.

[nando1000]

Just went on Rawk to see how they are reacting to the window, operation lockdown is in full effect

Yeah, I can't say I'm surprised that that. I'd sooner the whoppers on here dribble all over themselves than not be given any place to actually talk.

[Creator Supreme]

Dribble away!!

[Ranxerox]

So by all accounts we went for lemar last summer. Now we've got the money in the bank and the interest has cooled in the target. Rinse and repeat.

These guys are just taking everyone for a ride. Money talks. If they wanted Keita in now he would be here. Same with Lemar.

They don't care in the slightest about winning.

I take it you're not convinced by the "we're sound" argument.

[The Woolster]

I'd go to City and ask them to name their price for Phil Foden. The kid has all the tools to be as good as Coutinho. 

 

So what you are saying is he won't be as good as Woodburn?

[Beno]

What's pissing me off is that all the other teams vying for the top 4 have strengthened their squad, we have weakened ours.

It's not about finding a replacement for Coutinho, it's fixing the glaring problems in the team that have been there for years and are still not being addressed in this transfer window.

Getting VVD in won't make an ounce of difference if we have no midfield to protect the defence, have goalies that would not get into any other side in the Premier League and constantly have to play full backs who don't know how to defend.

 

We are a decent team with a starting 11 that can be great, but can also be utter shite.

Until we get some players with backbones we will always have these utter shite games and be scrambling around for 4th spot and not any higher(as well as constantly losing our best players who want to win things).

[nando1000]

Looks like Ejaria off to Sunderland, getting thinner...

[Pureblood]

Yeah, I can't say I'm surprised that that. I'd sooner the whoppers on here dribble all over themselves than not be given any place to actually talk.

 

We sold our best dribbler. 

[Harry Squatter]

BREAKING: Swansea are in advanced talks to sign Lazar Markovic for £15m. [@SportsPeteO]

[Funkasy]

Wba and swansea buy from us after winning over us, lets throw next game and sell them both our keepers and wijnaldum for free.

Thought we'd take a bigger hit than that

Net Spend cup here we come

[INTORRESTING]

I am pleased we are finally ditching the shite and getting wasted wages off the books.

 

Bogdan and Flanagan would see operation deadwood almost complete imo

 

It would be great if it benefited us but you can't have it all.
