J.Kimmich.

 

I'd love him, but we're probably even less attractive to serious, big name players given our transfer shenanigans of the last few days. 

[El Rojo]

Wouldn't be surprised if we go for Amrabat, as it would be a decent player in a DM position and also a rival's target.

I'd say a lot more over a longer period and agents that are getting a nice little sum for encouraging their client.

Weren’t we almost top of paying through the nose for agents also, just last year or the year before. So seems it might not be the agents part we’re not doing.

Some of us saw this coming off a mile away but were shouted down and told to not knee jerk. Well the chickens have come home to roost thanks to John Henry and his gang of cunts. 

 

They habe activity destroyed what Klopp build with their absolute clueless tight fisted ways. 

 

Take a fucking bow FSG. 

[Manny]

Fucking hell. I try and avoid transfer dick swinging, and I don't think that Lavia was the answer, and I think Chelsea have massively overpaid for both him and Caicedo, but to be publicly beaten to your main targets with ease by those whoremongers is fucking toecurlingly shite.

That would be like getting rejected by 10 DM's and ultimately signing Poulsen.

That's pretty much our trajectory at the moment, though he's obviously a few rungs above that level. 

[Jurgen Knows]

Andre-Frank Zambo Anguissa

 

He was key to Napoli’s title win last season.

Hey, at least we were right you and I eh? That's the important part.

[LFC 6 Times]

This is fucking ridiculous. 

[YNWAViking]

We are an absolute embarrassment of a club. 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Lavia situation is entirely of our own doing.

[Manny]

Also though, and I know I'm howling at the moon here, how the fuck is Chelsea's spending even remotely allowed by the "powers that be"? They've spent ~£950m since Todd took over, and a whopping £1.3bn since COVID, and only recouped £528m in that time. So they've spent £150m or so shy of a billion quid net on transfers in three years. They've spent more money than the entire Bundesliga has since their change of ownership.

 

What the fuck is the point anymore, with this kind of shit, with state wealth everywhere? We do ourselves no favours but it's not a remotely level playing field. It's not even a fucking field anymore.

[Code]

These are the 100 most valuable defensive midfielders out there according to transfer market. 
 

Do we need a specialist defensive midfielder though?

 

Persnally I think Thiago can play there,he is slow, but so was Fabinho , the first few yards are in the head anyway. 
 

[Bobby Hundreds]

Thiago can't stay fit for 5 minutes.

Ha! At this stage, the whole Lavia thing is actually funny, it was so badly handled. It's not worth getting angry over. 

[bizzle10]

Im really trying not to knee jerk but fucking hell

[El Rojo]

 

 

 

[Jairzinho]

Amrabat is a decent, if unspectacular, player. The difference between having him in the squad for a whole season and not signing a DM would probably be worth 10/15 points.

 

It would be just like us to wait until United were interested rather than buying him a month ago for 25m/30m.

He also can’t play six whilst he has a hole in his arse.

[George Costanza]

The big summer rebuilt is now complete.  We've rebuilt ourselves into Everton

[Reckoner]

Hopefully Jorge extends his contract so he can work his magic next year too.

J.Kimmich.

 

I said this a few weeks ago too but he really isn't the right profile. But Kimmich + Paulinha or somebody who is a more traditional DM, I think would be perfect.

 

We do not have the balls for that.
