Buy more players? Are you mental? There are plenty of decent players in the squad. It's Brendan lack of managerial skills that are the problem.
Really not have a pop at you mate, But are you serious??
Defence
Toure:- Legs simple do not carry him anymore
Lovren:- Where do I start
Enrique :- whether it is due to injuries just does not seem to have it anymore
Mid-Field
Allan:- Simple Average
Lallana:- over rated, decision making all wrong, No end product
Lucas:- sang his praise against Arsenal, since then back to the same old Average DM player he always was
Strikers
Benteke:- Vastly Over rate in our system, beside the odd wonder goal offers very little else… Will score goal for us, but I fear the will be very few
Ings:- another talent yet average strike like Benteke will score, just not that many
And these are just the one here and not on loan.
We spent £80m on just Lovren, Lallana, and Benteke… When Chelsea, City, Utd, or Arsenal spend that type of money you can beat your house that it is very, very rarely on a flop or average player, or the player can not play in their system…
We need to dump this “Resalable Value“ crap and start buying “Proven Quality” players that fit the system, and style that we wish to play and will move us back up the table and help so regain the prospect of play CL football regularly..
We should be patient with our buys, one or maybe two “Real” quality players a season and not just hoping to buy 6-8 players and we may get one or two gems from them.
