KevieG

So is the latest story we can't cover the 2.5 million loan fee for this Militao lad?

Even if we are skint, can we just bring forward the summer transfer plan? Get a bridging loan? Let's say we are selling Origi, Wilson, Shaq, Keita in the summer. Spend the money now. We are in bad enough shape but are a Fabinho injury from being unable to field a functioning team.

The whole thing is starting to feel like a meek surrender of our title. You'd have to wonder is it feeding into the players when two of our best players are playing makeshift centre half and the club sits on its hands. Based on nothing but me watching the telly I think Klopp is fuming with the whole situation.

At this point I'd scrap it and just leave the goal line technology. All it is doing is pushing these subjective decisions into the hands of a fellow incompetent. Some point dexter trying to adjudge of there was a millimetre of contact when that contact had nothing to do with a player hitting the deck, or if a fingernail is offside based on a fuzzy picture when no-one can determine when a ball was actually played. Its not a price worth paying and has ruined the joy in scoring goals. Give me the spirit of the law over the letter of it.

Hysterical fanny alert here but we're paying the price now for scrimping on the squad since we won the champions League. The wheeling and dealing to make us an almost spend neutral squad in Klopps time is admirable but it's all caught up on us as the main part of the team is flogged to death. We should have been strengthening from a position of strength and been all in on someone like De Ligt when he was available. Anyway. Rant over. Hopefully the team proves me wrong and turns it around at the weekend.

Say what you like but these pricks are finding a way week after week.

2 or 3 month break would suit us down to the ground

You could say he was up against kids tonight, but so were the others and they looked shit. Just operates on a higher plane

Great servant but Milly is running on fumes these days

Bit of guile from Thiago and Shaq has helped a lot

Hendo needs to fucking up his intensity 200%. Come on ta fuck

It's a curious take, especially when you consider how new signings such as Diogo Jota have shown they can work their way into the side if they're good enough. Any decent centre half will fancy nailing down a starting position considering he would be up against two players who get injured a lot.

That absolutely does my head in. Pass pass, pass, pass, pass, looks nothing noting on, hey lets get Hendo to float one to the back post, ball lost.

We've won one league in 30 years, I really don't get how we can be so blasé about just writing this season off and going again next year. We are still in a great position but we literally don't have a fit central defender, bar a couple of kids who both look really slow. We need to be maximising every opportunity this squad has in racking up trophies. Sign a fucking centre half.

So I think we can safely say now that this lad is the most important signing in 40 years.
