  1. 2-0 Chelsea. If we can find another midfielder.
  2. We at least drew with Swansea at the start of 15/16, did we not?
  3. It's for sure the stadium. Actually, I'm surprised that Conte is so publicly upset about the transfer activity. I would have thought that they would have told him about the reduced spending due to the stadium construction.
  4. Don't forget the "Sandro money". Surely, any other LWB that we go for won't be as expensive. VVD + Sandro = 120ish M? Even in today's ridiculous market, that's a pretty good LWB + RWB + CM
  5. Agreed. And, people have been making comparisons, saying that Costa > Morata (we'll see), Bakayoko is Matic's replacement, Chalobah is the one we are looking to replace now (true). No one can deny that Bakayoko + Sanches is a huge upgrade on Matic + Chalobah (and I'm a Nate backer). I think Sanches still has the ability to be a midfield beast, given the right platform.
  6. Supposedly starting tomorrow. I thought this thread would be busier. First real test!
  7. It's how sports works, it's so odd. Why are the New York Yankees so popular, or the Dallas Cowboys, or the Brazilian national team, etc? Whenever Liverpool supporters (not from Liverpool) get shirty about "history", I just remind them that the only difference is that their fathers or grandfathers were "glory hunters" back in the 70s.
  8. He played in CM for Arsenal last season too. Was pretty useful in that position as well, IIRC.
  9. I'd imagine that he'd just say that he doesn't want to leave and not sign a contract with us.
  10. If Costa wants "Only Madrid" he should lower his wage demands so that the club can afford the transfer fee.
  11. I also see people were complaining about his miss in the CS. Personally, I thought it was a very difficult chance. If that's disappointing, then what would happen if he did this:
  12. Fair enough. Though, I don't even know what a bomb is anymore. At the top, the fees are ridiculous, then you get Palace signing Riedewald for £7.5M, Choupo-Moting and Kolasinac on free transfers.
  13. I'd rather have Rabiot, if we're picking and choosing.
  14. Not even looking for a large pool. Just looking for cover if injuries creep in. I suppose I'm looking at the CM position. RLC and Chalobah out, very thin at that position to begin with.
  15. This. I'm okay with the depth coming from the youngsters, but we're getting rid of them. The ones that are PL ready are being sold, the ones that aren't are off on loan.
  16. I'd be very surprised if this happens. Could just be paper talk, or a ploy to get Liverpool to pay more money. But, as far as Chelsea goes, CB is actually one of the positions where we have depth. To spend this kind of money on a CB when our WBs and CMs are threadbare just makes no sense.
  17. I thought that Spinazzola was right footed and a replacement for Alves
  18. Could see Barcelona going for Mbappe. Replace Neymar, keep Mbappe away from Madrid.
  19. Personally, I love Verratti as much as the next guy, but Rabiot might fit our needs better. Verratti would be a Fabs replacement.
