Just be another signing that doesn't fit. Like keita, carvalho, Elliott, Melo, Thiago, Nunez etc etc. And don't get me started on nunes.
I've no confidence is what we will do this summer. No confidence that the players who are now past their best will be moved on while they still have value and replaced by quality players with it all in front of them. And I've no confidence klopp will be backed and the mistakes of the past both on and off the pitch will be learned from. Wtf is Mike Gordon doing? Stepped back and pushed it all onto Billy hogan while he went off looking to sell up or find investment ... is he still digging or sitting on a beach somewhere and getting laid.
I think I'm done for this season. I'll be back here the week of the first prem game and evaluate then. Time to enjoy the Summer.
Sounds like Mike is living the dream. Our signings last season were a mix of a waste of money or totally inconsequential.
We can't have that this season. From what I've seen of this guy he can play, but so to can Harvey, Carvalho, Thiago, Curtis. What I'd like to see back in our midfield is the energy, legs, work rate that carried us to a title and a CL.
Whilst folk moaned that the trio of Fab, Hendo, Wijnaldum lacked creativity what it did do was allow the 2 full backs and the 3 front men to really go at teams by providing the frame work and stability behind them.
That was also why I preferred Milner to come in if any of those 3 were injured rather than a more creative player like Naby.
It's the lack of legs in this team that has become a problem. Hendo and Fab just can't do it any longer over a long period and my preference is to try and out run teams once again.
Bring back the heavy metal, but it has to have a proper spine behind it.
