SikhInTrinity Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 The Liverpool Echo spoke to the higher ups at Liverpool and confirmed that Ilori is unlikely to return to Liverpool again. Just chill. You know how we all love the Evening Mail… The Echo is the Mail. If it said it was raining I'd look out of the window to check The issue here is, the Mail haven't a clue because they've burned their bridges with Villa, whereas the Echo who first reported the Ilori loan whereas our local journo didn't have a clue.

AntrimBlack Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Loans work in our favor too, Grealish being Exhibit A. I dont really have a problem with loans, they usually benifit all parties involved. Think deeper, hombre. They benefit all parties in the short term, which is why everyone accepts them. In the long run, though, the contracts of the best players end up in the hands of the biggest clubs. As they tend to do regardless of loan deals along the way That is the response I was going to make to your previous post, Maqroll. We loan players in, if they improve they go back to their `big' home club, we loan players out, if they improve they go to a `big' club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they tend to do regardless of loan deals along the way Yes, but in the loan system you have far, far more players joining big clubs by preference. There's a fallback option for them of going on loan. Without the loan system, players have to think very carefully before they back themselves to make the big club's first team.

VillanousOne Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 The Cleverly thing really bummed me out, we resurrected his club and national career. His response, nip off to Everton at the first opportunity and never mention us again, no thanks, no 'i owe a lot to Tim and Villa'. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His response, nip off to Everton at the first opportunity and never mention us again, no thanks, no 'i owe a lot to Tim and Villa'. I've pretty much forgotten about him AND Delph already, to be honest. We're looking a lot better with Gana and Sanchez IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted September 3, 2015 Moderator Share Posted September 3, 2015 I'm not. He was on a free, we could have had him in the squad as well as the players we've signed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 We still could have done with an extra midfielder of his type, and I presume that's why we went after Diame (If true). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El-Reacho Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) I think we're happy that he's good enough and have in effect signed him permanently. We've just offset the fee until next year which has the added bonus of allowing us to change our mind. I reckon he'll play a surprising amount this year.Liverpool's transfer strategy has been a utter shambles for years now.

Dr_Pangloss Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Hmmmmhttps://twitter.com/aakriti1/status/639094905151688704 Standard ITK that. And if he does sign for Villa? Well he didn't prove himself to be good enough for the mighty Liverpool and the tactical genius Brendan Rodgers.Someone in Yeman quoting an unsourced 'ITK', yeah right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itdoesntmatterwhatthissay Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Another superb signing from Tim.We have never used loans wisely enough and that's shocking because so many top teams buy players for the future and they waste away or play abroad.It's great to see Sherwood realising where potential may lie.Also, less of the Badcuma, he's clearly a wide midfielder doing a job as right back. He's struggled in attack and defence but he's always giving his all and he does help us move the ball into the final third even if his crossing has been below par.

AntrimBlack Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Been given the #2 shirt Interesting. So possibly brought in to play RB. That may be what Sherwood promised him about getting games, in order to persuade him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 (edited) Baker was number 2. Was he going to play right back? I mean he might end up playing there. His number isn't an indicator of whee he'll be playing though. Edited September 3, 2015 by abdomlahor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalVilla Posted September 3, 2015 Share Posted September 3, 2015 Will be interesting to see where he does play when he gets his chances.I wonder if we might see him playing DM as well as CB or even RB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted September 4, 2015 Moderator Share Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) If Sherwood just chucks him in, in front of Clark, I'll be very disappointed. I think it will be Lescott that takes Clark's place it's Hutton and Bacuna under threat from this chap I think. Besides Clark deserves to lose his place after the last two games.
