They would not say no ti him thats for sure ........ but they have a front 3 that are never injured and very lethal

his game is tailor made for Klopp-ball and they can get him for half what he worth this summer

never underestimate Klopp's being German as well

Firmino turns 30 near the beginning of the season after next

Mane (who is going to be a massive target of RM, Barca (especially if no Neymar), and PSG (especially if Neymar leaves) also turns 30 in the season after next

Werner can also play on the wing and can play in a 2 striker or CF/SS set-up

I always have multiple reasons backing up my rationales when I make a positing about major player moves

Now we need City to batter Spuds tomorrow. Then if we get Pulisic back fully fit after the break we can attack this tough run with our complete Arsenal of players.

Have 6 points advantage. 13 games to go. Playing at home against both United and Spurs. Even though Frank said we are underdogs absolutely no excuse not to finish in top4!

we shall see

I know some on here think he is lead pipe cinch to end up here and plan the summer around him and Sancho and Chilwell

I say no

in fact I can see us missing out on all 3

Sancho as a miss would most disturb me (I do think he is the most likely to truly want to come here)

Werner is my number one want at striker (with Lautaro also a co-number one, but I do not see us dropping that type of quid) but I do not see him coming here

Chilwell at £80m is absurd IMHO

I have very little faith in the board at a multiplicity of levels so my Negative Nancy stance is understandable

they are on a horrid all-round run and if we miss out on CL again and do not sell Kante and roll up another loss I can see a large amount of the monies gained from sales going to shore up our FFP standing

I am under no illusions that we are going to drop 400m plus gross in the summer window

If we can't get Werner I'd love Dybala as a second option.

I know, I don't count them in top4 race.

I think we should, they have a decent team and have done pretty decent against the big sides as well.

so given that (I just gave you words out of his own mouth), 

So you went from 'words out of his own mouth' to According to BILD....Gotcha. 

Your pessimism and impulsive nature on reports that provide no direct quotes are getting the best of you. Especially from a source such as BILD who apparently knew what CHO was having for breakfast and what trainers he decided to wear the next day.

that was drawn from his interview that I gave you the link to

I think you are wrong, and you think think I am wrong in terms of where Werner ends up at

again

I like my chances (although I hate the outcome if I am right), and I like my track record overall on here since I have joined

time will show who was right and who was wrong

 

as for CHO, he admitted his head was turned by Bayern to the point he submitted a transfer request (frustration with Sarri as well)

or are you going to dispute that as well?

Playing at home is the worry it isn't a advantage anymore. Then again our away form isn't all that either.

No. Even after our home record was broken was still look so shakey. Now who knows.

Burnley absolutely dominating Arsenal, and missing chances. You know how this is going to end...

[Pizy 18,368]

Burnley (who we recently beat comfortably) are absolutely dominating Arsenal here (who we couldn't beat when they had 10 men and we were at home).

How in the fuck did we let that happen, man. Arse are woeful.

[Alabama 1,992]

For now Arteta is overrated....

Cause we were woeful with chances...that's the annoying thing if we had taken chances we could've won..instead they took theirs and scored with both.
