with a managers future in the balance who is going to come who is worthy of the shirt

This.... I think our best bet is a new manager who could bring players with him like a Klopp for example, otherwise I fear for the quality we could attract.

I'm sure a guy like Klopp who values club locality more than anything would jump at the opportunity to come to LFC having fired their manager mid season - delusional is not even close.

Hey Diego LFC, what's all this hype on Lucas Silva, is he really that good of a defensive midfielder? I'm hearing 12m for him with Arsenal and Real Madrid pondering on whether to buy him or not. Do you think we should look into him or is he destine to join the to big clubs and we should just forget it?

Not exactly a very reliable source but I for one would welcome Jan Vertonghen at LFC: http://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/media-watch/clubcall-defender-set-for-reds-talks

Yayyyyy another LCB!

Haha hadn't thought about that, but it's true - we should be looking for right sided defenders...

The January transfer window guide to getting new players whilst barely spending any money on fees and agents:

Cech - on loan
Cabaye - on loan
Ayew - on loan
Khedira - pre-contract
Konoplyanka - pre-contract

simples.

Had that down to a perfect art last year, just without the new players part.

Alot of speculation in Dutch media about Frank de Boer joining us after this season. This is how he reacted to that: As long as nobody contacts me I'm not thinking about anything, I'm busy enough with Ajax. I'm very happy to stay here. I don't really want to talk about Liverpool. Also out of respect of their current manager, who had an amazing season with them last season.

I direct contradiction of reports that FSG have contacted him.

Some reports linking us with a huge 50 mn bid for Benzema. I would take him in a heartbeat, I think he has turned a corner this season and is a much more improved player now. The hype has got substance now.

I don't think he's all that. I think he's overrated and Madrid's weakest attacking player, sorry Borini would probably score just as much if not more than Benzema if he was playing in the Madrid team tbh.

Delph?
F**k. Off.

Delph?
F**k. Off.

Might have legs...

It seems LFC are ready to test Aston Villa's resolve as they will look to make a joint move for Christian Benteke and Fabian Delph in Jan

Come off it! Borini would score more than Benzema at Madrid?

2010/11 - 26 in 48
2011/12 - 32 in 52
2012/13 - 20 in 50
2013/14 - 24 in 52
2014/15 - 14 in 23

Borini doesn't have 5-10 goals in him never mind 32. Also, considering Madrid have Ronaldo, Bale, Rodriguez etc. then saying Benzema is their weakest attacking player carries no weight at all.

Delph?
F**k. Off.

Another 15-20m wasted maybe?

I'd take Benteke though. Get all the Belgian strikers! (Except that sh*te bitter one)

Walk across the park there and bring in Barkley,
otherwise we might as well accept the owners are having a laugh.

I'm not even a huge fan of the original Hamsik to be honest

Agreed he's a bit of a "nothing" player as far as I'm concerned. Is he a creative #10 like Aimar/Riquelme/Özil? No. Is he a goalscoring midfielder like Gerrard/Lampard? No. Is he the kind of runner/dribbler who takes 4-5 players out of the game at any point like Ronaldinho/Kaká? nope. Does he have an ever-present mohawk and did he happen to have 2 mates who were reasonably good at this whole footie malarkey? Yep, therefore he must be a world-beater.
 
... Well I'm guessing that's the criteria used by the people who hype him up.

That sh*te bitter one is infinitely better than that sh*te Balotelli one.

You're having a laugh mate surely?

Neither are good enough for us.
