Yeah sure thing they are, lets see next season you mugs. the English press loves to over hype the English players but then shit on the English managers I rant about Burnley when they thug up, but Dyche is a fucking superb manager, he keeps that little team not just up but usually mid-table every year (even made Europe once, in 2017/18, their first time back in 51 years) in the toughest league in the world by far, and on a SHIT budget, but gets zero respect overall If he was Dutch or German or Spanish or an Argentine, they would be licking his jacobs Atomiswave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Other than maybe better squad management and wiser tactical choice if this is our transfer window I can't see major improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Improvement can be made nonetheless, like on those aspects you mentioned. New signings would be most welcome but it shouldn't be seen as the solution to our problems. Moreover, Lampard reportedly talked about a 3-year plan to challenge for the Premier League and Champions League (latter might be asking a lot in 3 years but that's another debate) when trying to convince Ziyech and Werner to join us. So next season is year 2 and assuming Lampard has planned out what to do, then yeah, he needs to improve the side through coaching, new signings or not.

It is imperative for lamp to turn us into a good pressing team otherwise It will be even harder season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes sense given it's unlikely we'll have enough money to buy a LB, CB and GK all in one window. Plus, there's no genuine top class CB available at the moment. Would be nice though to get moving on the defensive signings! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to wrap them up asap and get working on our system because the system had completley failed after Covid 19. It was hard to watch.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Like I said weeks ago, we now have a short window of a break and FL will want deals done in the next two-three weeks to form the shape of his team for kick off. Havertz should be anytime now and the board will be grafting to get players out as well as in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Safe to say that rotation is gonna be ******* important next season! Yep, having good squad depth is now more important than ever. Unless they can somehow cough up some extra funds for quality signings I can especially see Liverpool suffering from the fixture congestion. City should be a lock for the title with their ridiculous squad, it's theirs to fuck up. Lampard so far has been a big fan of rotating the squad, though this season a lot of the rotation was probably down to Lamps not necessarily knowing what his best team is. At least in defense areas. Either way I can see pretty much every player in the squad getting a lot of minutes with two games almost every week till at least March and possibly even further depending on the FA Cup and CL runs.

It should have been scrapped for the season if fans aren't allowed in then it's hardly a cash cow for smaller clubs if they get drawn against the top premier league clubs. Liverpool played kids in the FA cup that's going to happen a lot next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read somewhere think it was the Daily Heil, 183 countries out of 193 in the World pay silly money to watch our English football on TV, and that the whole thing is on the brink of collapse because China, ironically, are refusing to pay up because of Covid. Wouldnt be too bad a thing in some respects - and fair play to Willian getting 220k a week for the next 3 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
