Liverpool related transfer speculation

Do we ever plan to sign another defender again?

We've literally signed about 2 in the last 7 years.
 
It's wild that if pep trusted his youth more that his team would have been in much better shape. The main argument I suppose would have been that they've been so focusing on appearing to maintain ffp for a few years paying so much money to lawyers to try and get them off. That's they've missed out

Fixed for accuracy
 
I do rate Simons but at the same time I don't want our team to be the Dutch national team. Nico Williams is more of a dream than monitoring - it's what I call wishful thinking, but then again - FSG might surprise me and get him like the day when we signed Torres under the old regime.
 
Xavi Simons can play just about anywhere in attack but for the fee PSG would want I'm not sure about that one.
Feels a bit like a Carvalho type move for us. Albeit higher quality.

From PSG I'd rather sign Warren Zaïre-Emery.

No, apparently you’re allowed to develop and bring through youth players which means you don’t have to buy - particularly when the ones you already have are mostly in their prime years.

So we’ve signed 2 in 7 years… it to quibble, but we signed Robbo, Tsimikas, Virgil & Konate, which is 4, not 2, in those 7 years; we had Matip & Gomez already at the club, and we’ve brought through Trent, Bradley & Quansah in that time.l ( not to mention Nico Williams & Van den berg who we sold and we don’t even need to mention Nate & Rhys Williams who are on loan).

So yeah… we probably are like.. going to sign a defender… like… when we need to like… sign a defender… which we’ll likely do… like… when we find one that’s better that what we have.

This is the kind of attitude that goes 35 years with 1 league title and almost 20 years with 1 CL and is where people like....like.....like.....you and me differ.

Well it isn’t really - buying loads of players tends not to lead to success - buying a few really good players does.

The reason we haven’t won more league titles or champions leagues over the last 20 years (and we’ve won 2 CL, not 1) - is not to do with “not buying defenders”.
 
Man city is the reason why we don’t have at least 3 more titles in the last few years. More than the aforementioned philosophy.

Yes & no.

Man City never made Karius single handedly cost us a CL, nor were they involved in us signing the cunt in the first place.

Nor did Man City ever leave our ageing squad to rot, nor did they hinder us bolstering our squad where we had the chance due to carrying multiple injury crocks and having to play a 77 year old at LB.

Nor did Man City prevent us signing the players we needed in the summer, nor are they proving to be an obstacle in failed contract talks to key players....or at least I don't think so.

The reason we haven't won more, will and will always be on people like JWH, Edwards and now Hughes. Individuals associated with the club but really only have their self-interest at heart.

Mate, why do you dislike those lads so much. Where's this coming from?

Do you not see they did a great job hiring a new manager? Sometimes, (and they've been proven right), you don't need to buy big at this time.

Our owners have their flaws, but they don't make a ton of money from this. Their benefit is from selling in the future, a highly valued business. Which means our interests are somewhat aligned. I mean, we've been the only real challenge to state owned dominance of the PL and CL for many a year.

Oh and Karius was a clear Klopp signing. That one was on the man himself. And it was a mistake that led to Allison and the 12 disciples we have lined up as our keepers for the next 10 years. Lesson learnt.

Napkin math says their asset has doubled the rate of return of the stock market over the last 14 years.

You think these top teams will just gift us their biggest talents?
Warren Zaïre-Emery is someone Real or Barca gets.

Yes. Yes, I do.

In all seriousness he's the type of player we should be looking at if we're signing someone from PSG.
Top tier talent, and why wouldnt he want to come to us? We're fucking boss. So why not try?

We sign rejects from these types of teams. Like Sakho.
 
Need a new CB, DM, CF, LB and RB but Edwards and Hughes are too busy giving each other rim jobs - probably planning to go away together for Christmas too the cunts, that’s why we won’t win anything again. Deja vu.

You are so calm, how do you do it when we draw or lose. I wish I was like you.

Honestly though, why do people engage with rim jobs? It's the most unhygienic carnal act.
I am 100% sure people who do, wake up shooting from both ends.
Back to football, not sure if the Zubamendi money is still there.
Remember the owners have failed to invest before when critically needed.
Don’t be surprised if there is no transfers in Jan.
