Okay, enough talk of our ambition now. Let’s see some substance.

If our board can move Lukaku somewhere (which I am still extremely skeptical about) they deserve an award of some sort.

They don’t care whether or not fullbacks defend in La Liga. Him being Spanish, being great in attack, having family connections with Barca, and being pretty inexpensive make it pretty easy to see why they’d want him. I think he’ll be very effective there.

Just reading the name Richarlison makes me 🤢🤢🤢 Keep that mf away from my club.

I think at least initially Boehly will defer entirely to Tuchel when it comes to who he wants to retain and who he wants to bring in. He’s not going to want to unsettle things more than they already are. If Tuchel insists that he wants Kante to stay or even given a new contract I think Boehly will say yes.

With the experience players we’re already losing at the back I don’t see any scenario now where either of these two leave. Especially not after Tuchel spoke of Kante as though he’s our talisman and best player.

Nobody is talking about Conte building a 5 year dynasty, ffs. We’re talking about him building a side for next season that’s strong enough to make our job all the more difficult. That’s all. Not hard to understand.

Players like Isco and Tolisso are the kinds of players you want to avoid at all costs imo. Dudes who have been perfectly happy to rot away on the benches of big clubs never playing and then not pushing for a move away to get some minutes. Shows a lack of ambition. Feels like it’s been 3 years since Isco has played meaningful minutes. How do you motivate a guy at a new club when he’s been chilling on the beach in Spain for years?

Yep. I said in the Premier League thread on the final day of the season that I would much rather have had Arse finish 4th than Spuds. Arse have a shite manager, a young squad full of bottlers, and are still in need of quite a few key signings. On the other hand, so long as Spuds have the two-headed monster up top who can score 20 each on all comps in addition to a world class manager they’ll be extremely dangerous. In the CL as well. I bet at the end of the summer when the betting odds and pundit predictions start to come out Spuds will be fancied to finish above us just due to the uncertainty surrounding us.

Two or three years too late. And not really suited to our formation or the demands of our playing style.

I’m sort of resigned to the fact that Spuds will be a serious team next season. As soon as it was confirmed that Conte was staying and would be backed I knew it.

Have a feeling there’s going to be be a huge scramble among several big clubs for these marquee CB’s so it would be amazing to get 2 in quickly. But I hope we avoid Pau Torres. He has massive bust written all over him in my eyes. Not impressed with him at all. Would be sad if the Gvardiol rumors just sort of fade away because he’s literally the perfect Rüdiger replacement you can imagine.

Straight swap for Barella 😅

Imagine if this was one of the many summers where we would also be seeking a new manager. 😱😱😱

Mané leaving Liverpool it looks like. May mean more competition for any attackers we may also be interested in. Firminho will probably go as well. So we should probably kick things into gear ASAP this coming week before bidding wars start. They’ll probably be looking at Dembele and Nkunku.

Thought I heard Inter were struggling financially still? How would they afford Lukaku?

It’s still incredibly sad to see what has become of him. From top 3-5 player in the world at the time when he left us to completely irrelevant now. He was one of the most feared and respected players around and now he’s the butt of jokes everywhere.

All we need now is a Ferrari 1-2 in Monaco tomorrow and this is a dream weekend.

Liverpool made one big mistake. They didn’t shoot between Courtois’ legs. 🤣🤣🤣

Don’t crumble now, Madrid!

Casemiro is shite. Slow as fuck, plays so many dumbass passes, and struggles to control the ball. Never really rated him, tbh. Just lucky to have played in a midfield with prime Modric and Kroos over the years.

LiVARpool strikes again. That’s a fucking goal, ffs.

Real Madrid’s midfield and defense look so old and slow. No idea how to deal with Liverpool so far.

All I want is for Liverpool to lose in the most heartbreaking way possible. Is that too much to ask for? 🤣 Like on pens or something as karma for beating us twice that way this season.

Was debating whether or not I’d even bother watching this. I will indeed start to watch but if Liverpool go up by a couple of goals I’m switching it off and avoiding Twitter for at least a couple of days.
