    We can't just have one striker. That would be madness.

    Well we know the club won't just go out and buy anybody, gone are the days of bringing in a panic buy.thay adds nothing to the team. 

    Duran is a raw talent, guaranteed yellow card when he comes on the pitch flashes of some talent, but maybe an attitude problem and Unai doesn't want him around casuing disruption to team harmony?

    It would imply we're getting a replacement at least.

    Only if it will add any value to the squad. So if there is nothing out there then no.

    They've done far better with sales, but a large amount of that income will be Coutinho and Sterling leaving (around £180m?).  Fabinho was also sold to Saudi for about £40m wasn't he?  Mane £30m to Bayern?  That's about half their income across 4 players.

    That was vastly over value as well. It is why Chelsea have a higher income as they sold a few off at silly money to the Saudis

     

    But we would not have got them prices, we only got 100m for Jack as it was a release clause. If we had Coutinho and Sterling we would have got half the price Liverpool got. That's my argument.

    Like I said, since Klopp took over, their net spend is closer to Bournemouth than it is Spurs.

    Even if people want to go by just spend, which ignores the need to sell to faciliate purchases in the first place, they're 6th in that time - a good half a billion of the Manchester clubs and Chelsea. We have a higher net spend despite spending 3 years out of the PL.

    I will highlight this

    Liverpool 119 departures and 547M

    Villa 156 departures and 299M from them (100M of that is prob Grealish so it just shows how awful we have been with selling players)

     

    Liverpool can sell their dead wood for a much higher premium than us

    It’s a pretty remarkable job Klopp has done. It’s no wonder everyone hates him 😂

    He is a perfect fit for Liverpool, he is just like an average Liverpool fan, moan moan moan,  plays the victim card. 

    Always in the 4th officials ear busting his dentures

    Proper word removed!

  6. Liverpool, every day of the week. Absolute deluded fan base, always the victims, dish it out but cry when it's given back. I have met over 100 Liverpool fans in my work.life and If there was ever a purge I would go out bat in hand and smash them as they have all been spunk trumpets.

    Am watching the darts - I never do as it doesn't really appeal......the score announcer seems to be a parody of the role when calling out the big scores 🙄

    Half the time I'm like what the hell did he score, its just this loud noise that comes out 🤣

    You can kinda understand it given our recent record in the FA cup.

    That's pretty abysmal... Ok we had Manure and Liverpoo, but Peterborough, Stevenage ties we should be winning in all honesty. 

    Don't think we will get past Middlesbrough ,  getting top 4 is our priority now so we need to rest players, so its gonna be a 2nd string side.

     

    Would love to see us win the FA cup but our squad isn't good enough to fight on securing top 4, progressing in Europe and the FA cup

    They can attract any manager they want when you consider the scale of the project…. 🤣

    They should concentrate on getting the current crock of shit past building safety standards before they start dreaming of 60k stadiums!

    60K 🤣 OMG! They cant fill 1 stand in an shed  let alone a 60K stadium.

    I like the fact that we aren't hyped up personally, if you are then the inevitable thing is to get knocked back down at every opportunity if things did go a bit downhill.  The less we are talked about especially by those clearings in the woods on things like Saturday Social, the better.

    They will start to talk about us if we nosedive down the table. Things like, flash in the pan, punching above their weight etc. Sky cant wait for us to slip up, scum! 

    They just want their scummy 6 hogging the top spots.

  11. Live on the BBC, haven't got past the 3rd round since  the 2015/2016 season and that took a replay (Vs Wycombe) What was amazing is the season before that we lost the final to Arsenal. 

    Don't expect us to get past Middlesbrough with our second string.

  12. That was 100% the villa of old, throwing away a 2 goal cushion. Bottle job.

    Changes should have come a lot sooner. Ramsey was invisible, the only thing of note was his yellow card! 

    Need a big performance next game of we want to seriously challenge top 4. 

     I think the players are running out of gas, the way we play and with the injuries and suspensions is leaving us light.
