The scouts that made us spend 40m on Bakayoko and Drinkwater instead of 20m for Rodri shouldnt have worked for this club in the first place.

But they suggested them. 

We had probably the worst recruitment team in Romans last 5 years within the top 6.

Even with Endo now in there Liverpool’s midfield is getting completely overwhelmed by Newcastle.

This is why I’m absolutely delighted that we secured BOTH Caicedo and Lavia. For when we go up against very good sides who play with 3 in the middle like Newcastle. Now (assuming Poch actually uses the formation) we can match teams with our own 3.

Some pigs, and also offloaded quite a bit of dross. Decisions not down to the scouts though, they recommend  it's the board, manager, owners that all have input in the decisions.

Imagine if they lose Salah that late in the window as well. 

Pool was really shit last season as well. Remember they were down there with us for a long time before they had this saviour spell late in the season.
