Wishlist James Milner

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

City reject, nothing left.

[Pizy 18,858]

Decent signing but nothing more.

Yep. Good enough for Liverpool as a starter and City as a squad player. Not the kind of signing that elevates Liverpool in any way.

Good player for Liverpool. If they manage to keep Sterling and buy Benteke and a solid RB, they have a team that can grow and challenge for a top 4 spot after one or two seasons.

Mignolet

New RB/Flanagan Skrtel/Lovren Sakho Moreno

Can Henderson

Milner Coutinho Sterling

Benteke/Sturridge

That's a decent team but top 4 is unrealistic unless they somehow make some excellent signings. 13/14 did more damage than good because the expectations are too high now.

Milner set to join Liverpool. Everything has been agreed. Now down to just the medical.

Delighted about this. Delighted that he's leaving City and delighted too that he's not going to Arsenal. I'm a big fan of Milner's but I don't believe he'll do too much damage at Liverpool.

[Pizy 18,858]

Still abysmal at the back, shit keeper, bang average midfield with Henderson and Can, and Sturridge is a constant crock.

No chance they get top 4 next season. They'll do well to move up a place no nick Spuds to 5th.

Never mind that, Rodgers doesn't even know how to organize his team defensively.

Good / decent signing for liverpool. But i think a big LOSS for city tbh

[Fernando 6,585]

Good signing for them to be honest.

Not to mention he is English.

[Polo7 3,496]

Good signing???! Lol hardly world class. Just a bog standard overrated English player.

[nadavTKL 1,787]

Thats barely a good signing, it just shows Liverpool's ambitions... he came there to be a starter and now they're gonna play with him and Henderson, and they're basically the same player, for 150k its ridiculous.

They would never make top 4 again with Milner and Ings. 1 Year ago they spended all their money on PL players from Southempton, it looks like they cant see past the PL, its pathetic.

Defending is easy[emoji16]

To be fair, no one said anything about World Class. He's a solid player and I would have liked Chelsea to sign him as a squad option.

[Viper22 2,418]

Bit annoyed we didn't get him as a squad player as I think he'd have been a great option for us.

But I guess if he wanted to start then there's not much we could do.

As others have said though, it's good that he's going to Liverpool and not Arsenal as I feel he would have improved Arsenal a fair bit but Liverpool need to buy a defence before becoming anything that even resembles a threat.

[Fulham Broadway 17,305]

Gutted the vermin hoovered him up.

Ok his signing press conference - likely to include "...huge club....history....dignity..."

Unlikely to include "...aiming for fourth spot in reality...self pitying....murderers....never our fault...always the victim..."

[Duppy Conqueror 1,526]

he`s a typical Scumpool signing. overpaying for another Danny Murphy. decent player for an "also ran" club but more of a workhorse than a player whose gonna elevate them beyond mediocrity.

they would have to spend about £200-300m and wisely to get back into league winning contention and then have players and coaches that can handle playing for such a fanbase with giddy delusional expectations of some devine right to be above all over clubs.

Or they could just get Suarez back [emoji16]
