Pizy 18,993 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 So Liverpool have signed Lallana, Lambert, and Can so far with Markovic now seemingly done and Lovren likely. Just like Spuds, they've replaced one world class player with a bunch of average ones.Have to say that I'm not sweating Liverpool at all. Much more concerned about Arsenal, City, and United than them. Don't think they get near the title next season. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bababoom 4,478 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Lambert - £4 millionLallana - £25 millionLovren - £20 millionMarkovic - £25 millionOrigi - £11 million= £85 million Markovic is talented but what I've heard he's very but inconsistent, Origi had a decent WC i thought, he seems good technically but is he ready for the PL? I'm not too sure tbh, he could be loaned back out. On paper it seems like a lot of money for those players but who knows what Rodgers has in mind.

Pizy 18,993 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Just smacks as Spurs & Bale.So many of their supporters and even a bunch of media and journalists were saying things like "they got rid of a world class player in Bale but they may be an even better side because they're fortifying all of the holes that Bale masked."That's how Liverpool fans will spin it. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defense was their biggest and they still need a CB and LB. I guess they added depth. They're gonna get blown out in Europe. Pizy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper it seems like a lot of money for those players but who knows what Rodgers has in mind.With Suarez out, and depending what United does in the transfer window they might actually go the Tottenham way. All those signings take some time to adjust, and with them doing CL it will hurt them in the PL. bababoom and Pizy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Why the fuck is lpool so interested in 'our' players? Sturridge, Moses, Borini, Glen Johnson and now Cole, Bertrand, Markovic, Lukaku.They basicaly bite in every our reject or player we sold in past.

Anyone can coach that." Concedes ridiculous amount of goals last season.Let's see how he gets on against the elite sides in Europe if they draw any in their group. Those sides aren't going to bend over and beg for more like Norwich. Reddish-Blue, Tomo and The Chels 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hes basically the second coming of Ossie Ardilles.I will be shocked if he ever tastes victory against Mou or Van Gaal. iseah100 and Pizy 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sheer gulf in class between the lineups when the team sheets are released will be hilarious.Ronaldo, Bale, Di Maria, Benzema vs Lallana, Henderson, Gerrard, SterlingThey'd be shitting themselves.

Last season's was a facade. Played once a week and never had to be rotated. Let's see how he gets on with midweek fixtures and 3-4 competitions to compete in.

Toli 977 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 With Markovic probably coming. Alexis is off to Arsenal. Not good for us. Sanchez is a tremendous player and could also play in the CF position instead of Giroud. Hurts me too see him in their shirt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus they have Wegner and terrible health. They don't scare. Only City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polo7 3,496 Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Still think we need a decent CB. Dont know if we can rely on Zouma. If Terry and Cahill get injured, will Ivanovic and Zouma be able to cope? sherry33 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
