Just seen that fofana scored and assisted today. He is a DM right ? Why are we not gonna get him ? Mates with Ibou, he is tall, probably quick, and might be as good as Chouey (you know the Real Madrid midfielder that Klopp has wet dreams about). Why why why????

Why would you assume he's quick....
 
Fofana was available this summer and has 18 months left on his contract. There is a good deal to be done there. The question is if he's good enough or will suit us.
 
Szobo is so good! We gonna look back at that fee like a gift. Gonna be the best midfielder around. So pleased we got him.
 
Barca’s Gavi just done his ACL playing for Spain in a meaningless game. Sickening.
Sickening is a bit strong Rurik, it’s unfortunate just like any injury players suffer.

Players choose to play for their country because they’re dedicated just like a player can choose not to play for their country anytime they wish.
 
Feels like we should be seeing more goals and assists from him at LFC?
Is he more restricted while playing for us?

It’s only natural; he is Hungary’s main attacking threat and his role in that team is to create and score goals directly. Here he has 3 strikers in front of him who need to be fed. Maybe when Salah goes to AFCON we will see him in the forward line for a while.

I suppose playing as part of a midfield 3 which isn’t known for registering a lot of goals/assists would say so. For his previous clubs and his country he plays as more of a 10 or in a front 3.

But I think because of how reliable our front 3 are with the burden of goalscoring means he’s able to carry out more midfield responsibilities so maybe instead of getting a goal or assist every 3-4 games it’ll be every 6-7 games.

It’s become an afterthought for me anyway seeing as how well he’s started the season.
 
Awful. With the new CL format starting next year there will be even more games for these footballers, and even more injuries.
Sorry but these guys are paid an absolute fortune for running around on a pitch. Injuries are just part and parcel... as they are for many people in all walks of life who don't get paid a fortune for playing the game they love.
 
I think they should follow Wengers idea and have the World cup every two years as well. We need more games.
 
Never mind that - what about an EPL/Saudi Super-duper* league?

*I may have to copyright that name
 


All of our youngsters also seem to go through long-term injury spells, even though we are fairly careful with managing their workload. Maybe not careful enough.
 
Yeah there's absolutely no limit to how many games these guys can play. No upper limit, and if there is (but there isn't) we're nowhere near it yet. Infantino has a short career so half a dozen more games a season against the Azerbaijan champions is just part and parcel.
Well that's weird. When did the 'more games' question arise. Me? I was talking about injuries and sympathy.
 
Trent starting tonight in that pointless game. Southgate can fucking do one.

Appaz the pitch is so poor that the players have been told were they can warm up and which areas to stay away from. The conditions are so bad that they are afraid of injuries.
Great. 90 mins on that surface.

Trent is probably dying to start no matter the conditions or opponent to prove he can play in midfield for England. Rice, Trent and Foden midfield 3 it looks like.

THere's that or he could just be a proud Englishman overjoyed to represent his country
 
Looks like a double-pivot of Rice & Trent. England looking much more fluid with a lineup closer to what a potential first team at the Euros will look like.
 
Oh my lordy...

Maguire gave away a stone wall penalty. Not given

Lewis jumps, wins the ball. Hand brushes the players face.. penalty.

I guess it evens itself out but both standalone horrendous decisions.
 
Harry Maguire ladies and gents. If you don't piss yourself laughing then you can't be helped.

England were pretty awful. 84 mins that Trent could have used to relax instead.
 
It should a used as a learning point for Trent.

The learning point being that he should stick to being a RB
 
14-0. There should be a Europa Cup equivalent of the European Championship where minnows like Gibralter who will never progress beyond the qualifiers be put along with the failures from the group stage. The biggest advantage of what I am proposing is you reduce the number of International Games
