      If we were to be looking at anyone from around that sort of team and for that sort of price then think Brady would be the one to go for, actually quite rate him and think he could become a cracking player with a move to the right team.

      Would like us to see us go all out for Ricardo Rodriguez personally.

      I would be very happy going into a season with a Rodriguez and Clyne with TAA and Milner as backups.

      As for Robertson, I don't know, maybe it would we would be better off buying a more established and better quality left back. I just remember how sh*t he was vs us/Mane ;D as well as another game (City I think, can't remember).

      I don't see how our defence improves all that much by spending money on another average left back. We obviously still haven't learnt our lesson.

      Echo throwing around a lot of names we have serious interest in :

      Striker - Lacazette / Luan Vieira
      Winger - Julian Brandt / Max Meyer
      CM 1 - Naby Keita / Leon Goretzka
      CM 2 - Oxlade Chamberlain (at the right price)
      CB - van Dijk / Koulibaly
      LB - Robertson and Sessognon

      Gosh! If we are able to pull that off, it would be f**king incredible!!

      I have to say that's i would be very underwhelmed if we broke our transfer record on that list - reason being it is a typical list from us of players who are not at the top level, have hardly set the world alight,  are not significantly better that what we have already and will have to come in and show a lot more than in terms of consistency and ability than they have done previously.

      I like the idea of maybe one or two of them (lacazette and Brandt) alongside some proven talent rather than more mid table superstars who play for clubs that are under not much pressure to perform week in week out.

      So many players have come here from them teams in recent (last 20) years and not been able to handle being in the spotlight and having to raise there game.

      We need to be ruthless and fix up.

      You talk so much of these proven talents that we should buy but failed to name one that would realistically come to Liverpool since I've asked you almost a month ago.

      Lies.


      From what I have seen of him he looks decent enough for squad depth IMO and probably best of a bad bunch at Hull but think we can do much better. Would like us to see us go all out for Ricardo Rodriguez personally.
      That's the thing.... We will be linked with some great players  between now and the summer, but it is not about who we are linked with, It is about who we ultimately get this summer, unfortunately I believe the media has this one about right as regards to the type of player we will sign  >:(

      I'll happily take Lacazette, Van Dijk, Brandt, Keita & possibly Sessegnon. What we're not going to do is go out and buy the likes of Griezmann etc.

      how nice - a personal stalker  :lmao:

      We should be going for Sanchez in terms of proven quality. He would suit our style, is in the final 12 months and is a winner. money talks.
      in terms of up and coming and with potential too - Mbappe, Puilisic are players that are young and have room to improve yet are also doing it right now.

      we will always (or most of the time) have competition against other big teams to sign the top players - but this is no reason not to go for them.

      So, lets say we go after Sanchez AGAIN and he prefers Chelsea cos of the London life AGAIN, and then we go sign Lacazette - that makes you happy cos we showed ambition?! I'm probably guessing you werent very happy when we signed Mane for 30+ mil

      Sometimes, its not the name, its about how they are coached. Pogba was a name, Mkhitaryan was a name.. they havent hit the ground running either. If Jürgen has a player in his mind, thats probably cos those players would fit into his style. Look at the turnaround that Lallana, Lovren, Hendo and Firmino have had.

      Mbappé looks phenomenal. Absurdly good for a feckin' 18 year old.

      That's just sickening. Surely that is 4 first team players right there with a possible 5th in Sessegnon :o I can see us challenging for CL AND PL if we get 3-4 first team players in.

      One name I want to throw in, Felipe Anderson, anyone heard of him? Supposedly a beast of a wide player. I was wondering too, Willian? If Chelsea do get Sanchez, and with Willian playing a bit part this season... who knows? :D

      Felipe Anderson is good but far too inconsistent,  not as good as mane, don't rate willian that highly,  good at free kickd but runs like he has sh*t himself

      Already turned down twice by Pulisic.. the same with Sanchez and Mbappe can have his pick from any team in Europe plus FSG won't break the world transfer fee record for a player..it's all good talking like you live in a FM world but real world doesn't work like that.

      Nathan Aké anyone? Know he's with the Chavs, but tackles well, easy on the ball, scores and quick wiv it. 22 too. They won't let him go, but think he's got it all. How much much would he be worth, to us?

      I think that list of players will definitely improve our depth depending on who or how many get sold

      IN: Van Dijk, Sessegnon, Keita, Brandt & Lacazette
      OUT: Klavan, Moreno, Lucas, Stewart, Sturridge

      Mignolet

      Clyne   Van Dijk   Matip   Sessegnon

      Can

      Lallana   Keita

      Mane   Firmino   Coutinho


      Karius

      TAA   Lovren   Gomez   Milner

      Hendo

      Grujic   Wijnaldum

      Wilson   Lacazette   Brandt

      Rest of squad: Ejaria, Ojo, Woodburn, Origi & Ings

      Those 11's are just quickly put together with no thought really into who makes the first 11.

      Dreaming is cool but you eventually have to wake up.. big stars and proven talent won't come here just because you dream about them.
      And I didn't say anything about accepting mediocrity..I was just pointing out the fact that he wants Liverpool to sign proven stars but fails to mention one name that would come here.

      I personally wouldn't get rid of Lucas or Klavan. Both good cover to have.
