Coutinho wanted to go,VVD wanted to become a Liverpool player, happy with one going and the other one arriving..... Here is where I am not happy...
It has dawned on me that Solanke was not a good buy for us. and yes some of you out there are going to come out with the usual " He is only young" and he "Needs time" thing, but watching him he does not fit the style we are playing, that's not down to him, but it is how ever the truth.I believe Everton's Calvert-Lewin would have been a better buy for us...
Sturridge's injuries have taken their toll and he is not the players he once was and should have been sold
Ings, have not really seen enough of him in a Liverpool shirt to call that one.
We needed and front man in this window and given the style we play Javier Hernandez would have fitted in perfectly... Some here will say that he was poor for West ham, nut the hammers do not play the way we do, and I would remind those people that Benteke was scoring for fun at Villa, struggled to do so at Liverpool and is scoring again at Palace... Forlan struggled at Utd, Keane LFC/Spurs etc... If not Hernandez and front man none the less...
The Coutinho money was spent (allocated) before we had it (Keita and VVD) it was just about how much of it would go on the latter
This could have been a good window, but once again it is more of a missed opportunity coupled with FSG unwillingness to really invest in the club and to show some real ambition in wanting to sign quality players... Lucas Moura, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Olivier Giroud, Riyad Mahrez, Mesut Ozil where all possibilities
Another disappointing window
Edit:- Sorry forgot spunked £40 on the Ox when we could have used Ovie Ejaria or Sheyi Ojo instead
