Nieve been making a lot of appearances and we love it
I’m sorry but having Matip anywhere near Karius is insane. Typical Loz wanting to be a football hipster.
At least he's finally sorted his hair out.
That wasn't even the worst one. Look where they put Thiago
If you just watched the video before blurting your opinion you would see once rearranged that they are miles apart
next should be his soy political stance @@SteveAustin-zv1nn
@@david91lvbwhen Thiago played he was sensational!
Laurence is being too harsh on Salah. Salah has never had an off season for us and he’s put up unreal numbers his whole time here. Never injured, always steps up in the big games, and ofc: an absolute bargain signing. Has to be number 1.
Lawrence finally cut his hair and looks like a normal person 😂
He's actually alot more bareable to listen to now.
The hair was wild, made him look homeless
man said a normal person ? 🤣 so unnecessary
@@SteveAustin-zv1nnyeah when he was on the kick off he was umbearable sometimes mainly because he would get so rattled by the others but after hes had a break after that incident with true geordie hes come back and is actually quite pleasant to listen to and says some decent stuff
Why’s should we be normal
Putting Thiago that high is madness. He plays 5 games a season.
For the sake of 2021/22 season, he deserves his props imo; goes under the radar a bit our midfield that year with the trio of Hendo, Fabinho and Thiago
He played half the minutes for 3 seasons in a row. Not perfect but always looked classy when he played
He’s the rare kind of player that gives you joy watching football, bar his injuries he was a world class player
he was pretty much best midfielder in the league along with kdb and bernardo silva that season u lost the league by 1 point though , and in terms of talent i don't think there's anyone on the list close to him , and his legacy and overall incredible career for barca and bayern are also a subconsious factor in these rankings
@@GabrielFlies Facts, Thiago is a special player which is why Klopp has kept him for so long. But he either needs to stay fit or leave next season.
Nieve said more insightful things with only 5% of the words used lol
The disrespect that Salah having is unreal . That guy is a hero for that club and his numbers are saying so much about him
Alisson Becker No.1
Putting Diaz behind Shaqiri is crazy
Unfortunately he’ll always be criminally underrated because of his injury record, but Matip at his peak was as good as VVD. An unbelievable CB
Better than VVD at times for me
Was as good as a VVD just back from injury, nowhere near peak VVD
Yeah people have no idea how good Joel Matip was.
Matip was top top class, but he’s never been as good as Van Dijk, and it just showed whenever VVD didn’t play
@@yessi1585 different roles tbh. CBs are more like CMs now. They don't just both do the same thing.
VVD is better, but at his peak, Matip would've started for every team in the world
These two are amazing guests! They both have so much football knowledge and aren't just there for clickbait takes!
Let’s go Neve is back!
Since Edwards left the quality of signings decreased significantly maybe that's one of the reasons Liverpool haven't performed in that same 19/20 , 18/19 level
I think we’re about the see a whole new level…
As a Liverpool supporter, this makes me appreciate Jürgens work even more. I mean: Bobby, Sadio Mane, Fabinho, Gini. How Klopp elevated them to sheer world class if not best in the world in their positions at some stage and how they struggeled or faded ever since. I mean, how good was this team as a unit that made every individual shine more. Love the memories.
In comparison to Ox, Naby Keita's placement is very harsh. They had a 10-15 million difference in fee and they played the same number of minutes in their LFC careers. Both had runs of good form but were never good, dependable signings. They were similar. Thiago is also in their level
For me, Thiago fundamentally changed things for Liverpool and that wasn’t always a good thing but we got close with him. Naby just never reached the heights we hoped. Ox felt more visible to me.
Completely agree ox quite overrated because he’s English. Love him as a bloke but overall his Liverpool move was about a 4/10
Ox is just above. He had a sustained period of form where he was really dangerous
Mane and Salah are 10/10 or very close signings... can't get much better for much less money
People have forgotten how good konate is. He's had a disruptive season due to injuries but man he has the most difficult role in the team covering his position AND trent's. He shuts down Martinelli with ease and has 13/13 duels won against vinicius in their 3 games against each other. No other defender is that dominant against vini
I remember it was pre-season and Klopp witnessed Karius flap at 3 goals against Tranmere or somebody. Within a couple of weeks they paid £70m for Alisson. 😂
Yeees I was there ahah
that was the pre season after the CL nightmare
@@jackmack-ov7nd nope it was July 2018
My top 5 -
1. Salah
2. VVD
3. Alisson
4. Mane
5. Wijnaldum
So a guy that Klopp actually didn’t want is his #1 signing? 😂😂
Edit: There’s some Liverpool fans crying about this…when Klopp himself has openly admitted it!
@@GIBBO4182So by that logic Højlund is a bad transfer seeing Man Utd. wanted Kane as their striker?
@@M4NA5 however you have to try and twist it to make yourself feel better bro 🤷🏻♂️
@@GIBBO4182 perhaps it’s the getting over 200 goals and winning trophies part that makes him number one?
@@GIBBO4182its you twisting to make yourself feel better
Overall, we can all agree that Klopp managed to sign wisely and used his players well, compared to certain teams like Man United or Chelsea who literally pours money on injury prone players or just over pay in general
Michael Edwards not Klopp it’s gone downhill since Edwards left
It’s tough to say the #1 if you take into account the transfer fees, because for me it’s Alisson. He’s without doubt been the best player in his position in the world since he’s been at the club. But he was also a world record transfer fee for a GK! Most people will say Salah, but he wasn’t even Klopp’s choice…and then there’s VVD, again, another player arguably the best in the world for his position, but another world record transfer fee as well 🤷🏻♂️
I think you could just as easily say that Salah, VVD and Alison are all tied for the too spot imo. Three incredible bits of recruitment for three world class players which also filled significant holes in liverpools team! I think without all three of them I doubt Liverpool would have been as competitive as they have been!
Salah better than VVD and Allison .he was the best player in PL since 2017
Fabinho should be number 1, it’s not lost on me that once his powers started waning, Liverpool fell off.
@@abdallahmohamed-zx8di Salah better?
I don’t remember Salah coming second in the Ballon d’Or rankings 🤔
@@abdallahmohamed-zx8di Yeah but how good is he in goal or at CB? 😂 Hence my comment saying that in my opinion all 3 are/ were just as important as each other due to their different roles on the pitch.
Salah is definitely the most important lpool signing lol
Won't say nailed on cuz all 3 are very similar and top signings
VVD was our final piece to the puzzle. As soon as we got him, it was day and night. We suddenly turned into a world class team.
Nah i’d say for our front it was sadio coz look at us when salah was with sadio and bobby and now with darwin, diaz and etc. Bro can barely play attacking football and score now. In terms of klopp signings, mané was THE guy to literally control that team offensively and create chances where we could score at that time. It’s Embarrassing from FSG to treat him that way, mané deserves better and we as fans know how crucial he was
@@KeyzKieranVvd definitely our top 3 signings fr, but shame the injury really changed him but he still our guy tho. Overall i’d say Alisson, vvd, and mané (not in order btw) was klopp top 3 signings
No Ali No VVD no trophies not even close
The rose tinted glasses were strong here 😂😂
great to see lawrence back doing footy content. really nice to see him in a good place. very knowledgeable and insightful.😁
Salah had one argument with Klopp and fans are ready to downplay how he carried the team for years
Are you for real. Salah has not "carried" Liverpool for years 😂
You havent been watching Liverpool in the past 7 years. It was day and night difference when we got VVD. Liverpool suddenly became one of the best Premier league teams we've seen after we got VVD.
he been the top scorer for 7 straight seasons and 4 times top assister in 7 seasons, if that is not carrying then what is it? now remove his goals and assists we are mid-table check for yourself
Thiago too high. I would put him to same place as Minamino
Bearing in mind she moved matip, how can you put klavan and matip in near enough the same spot?
It could be argued that VVD had slightly higher peaks than Salah and even then I'd say Salah 2017 -2018 would beat any of Virg's best seasons, but the consistency each season from Salah is what I believe makes him number 1, even when the rest of the team were not at the races and VVD wasn't looking his best post injury, He was carrying hard with goals and Assists.
I also believe Allison overall has been more consistent than VVD, and it would be hard to argue against his peaks as he is also considered by many as the best in his position as Virg had been at many points.
There is no doubt they are the 3 guys that should be in this discussion, with many others a little behind.
Salah - Consistency, Goals and Assists.
2) This is really a toss up both are or have been regarded as the best in their position for a reason, Allison I feel has been more consistent but Virg was the biggest reason Liverpool could play their counter attacking football.
1) Salah.
2) VVD.
3) Allison.
Why is Stu from Hangover presenting Saturday Social?!
Klopp first signing in January 2016 was marco gulic from sebia but he was loan out same time...Mo salah is klopp greatest signing ever
Grujic*, but this was only players who has played more than 30 games for Liverpool.
The recently incident with Salah affected his placement! Def nr 1 signing
Matip is so much better than people think
A list I can actually agree with FairPlay Loz!!👏🏾
Nunez still way overrated - feel like he gets the boost for his "potential" that hasn't materialized yet. Minamino still underrated - was clinical when he got his chances, and I forgot Thiago even played for Liverpool...
SALLAH is number 1 easily 😅
He isn’t
He is 😭😭 the only that didn't have a bad season 🙄🙄 carried us in every season
@@endinako9364 Because he’s pulling down trees this season & Ali hasn’t
Good list in general but I think this is to harsh on Diaz Fantastic Player and far better then the likes of Gakpo, Nunez and Shaqiri
Fr, how they putting nunez above diaz, thats crazy
@@s7_wys Nunez had 30 goal/assist contribution this season alone and presses very well, off the ball is also excellent. His biggest problem is finishing and if he fixed that, he would be looking at least 40 G/A. Diaz declined quite rapidly last season and his form was shaky for a while, even if it was for a good reason.
Loz is a joke when it comes to ball knowledge - he's a contrarian hipster. VVD/Salah/Alison/prime Fabinho can't be separated as they are the pillars of the era but Salah is THE icon of that era. Funny that Nieve's list and opinions are actually way more accurate
What are you talking about? It’s pure opinion. Salah can’t have any of that without fixing our leaky defence in the first place and that’s ALL down to VVD and Ali as signings. Well and good saying Salah but those 3 are all very similar. Goals just get more praise.
Stop replying loz 🙄
My top 5:
1. VVD
2. Mo
3. Alisson
4. Mane
5. Robbo
Alisson and Van dijk over Salah is just crazy
No its not. Salah has been amazing going forward, not just scoring but assisting. For a long time, Liverpool have been struggling for a good goalie. Jursey Dudek was arguably our last finest, but we needed Alison to strengthen the back line, which was missing for so many years. As for VVD, he has that control of the defence, and knows how to instigate the correct attack on the opposition. That has been missed for so many years, since Sami Hyypia and Stephan Henchoz in the early 2000s. We've always had amazing attackers, but it was our defence that let us down.
It's not crazy, you're just not a Liverpool fan lol
It's not crazy it's arguably the best CB and GK in the world
Nice to see Stuntpeg, top analyst.
Alisson, Mane, Salah and VVD cant be separated. Klopp also found gems at Liverpool like Bobby, Origi,Lallana and Gomez
Matip was outstanding man watch some games
Not VVD though. Amazing but not VVD.
@@laurencemckenna definitely not but faultless around 90% of the time
minamino's is harsh, he was never intended to be a starter and won us 2 trophies essentially on his own merit, should be up there with gini ATLEAST
elliott should also be higher, you gotta understand why these players were signed and weigh their cost into it, ox should be closer to keita both similar prices with similar output keita was unfortunate that klopp shifted from having a cam in the season he joined when thats where he would've had the most output and even after all his injuries he still gave incredible performances in 2022 against the likes of city, benfica, leicester, newcastle etc. endo should also be higher and tsimikas should be a bit too.
I think you’re right actually!
@@laurencemckenna appreciate it bro
Mina...didn't do well for me.
played well in cup games only
I was quite disappointed with him
@@footballsoccerlove1748 he cost 7m bro, we profited and he won us 2 trophies
This is a joke.. the guy drops Diaz instead of Núñez if he had to choose based on needing a finisher.. if Díaz had half the chances Núñez had, he would have done the job. Out of the front 3 (Diaz-Núñez-Salah) he is the one who keeps recycling the ball and making connections with the entire team. Give him more attacking freedom and you will see!!
It’s a shame to see how you underestimate Salah!
Klopps first signing was actually Grujic 😊😊
Fabinho was bought as backup right back, performed as the best dm in the world for 18months, and his best games for liverpool were playing as cb. Thats tells you how valubale a player he was... also laurence lack of football is being highlighted here by nieve 😂
Alison and Matip i would of put higher. Matip was so underrated, many times made VVD look alot better as we are starting to see now
You can just tell how good of a manager Klopp is by how successful most transfers have been. He improves players.
These were players who played 30 games, hides the flops
@@Robmc0381 For every player he improved, there's another flop he didn't.
@@kevinconway2965 nah, the vast majority of signings performed well. It's impossible to have a 100% success rate.
Loz with the Jerry Rice jersey 🔥🔥🔥🔥
SALAH is best signing by far. Even in his worst season he'll get u the numbers. Put some respect on that name.
In order from - Left ---> Right & Top ---> Bottom. Do you agree?
1. World Class - Van Dijk, Salah, Alisson, Mane
2. Top Tier - Robertson, Wijnaldum, Fabinho, Matip, Jota, Mcallister, Diaz, Konate
3. Good - Thiago, Gakpo, Nunez, Szobozlai, Elliott, Endo
4. Average - Minamino, Shaqiri, Ox, Tsimikas, Gravenberch
5. Bad - Naby Keita, L.Karius
Thiago - injured too much, great passer but not good defensively, found it difficult to tackle & win ball back
Diaz - Amazing player, needs way more goals - needs to step up to truly replace mane yet
Gakpo - Was great till around Jan-Feb, had 2 bad months, but back to best in May - moved around too much in midfield & striker - best position is left wing, looks great there and pretty good finisher
Naby - 50mil spent, average player with 1 or 2 moments, injured too much, and even when played was not 50-60mil player was around 25mil player
Ox - great for 1 season, 2 season ending injuries, was not same when back
Minamino - instrumental in winning 2 cups
Wijnaldum - was impossible to get ball off, highly press resistant, consistent for 4-5yrs, instrumental in title winning campaigns, scored good goals, offered good protection for defence & showed his angry best in that insane barcelona 4-0 game with 2 goals & amazing celebration
I miss wijnaldum man he led our midfield
No one will see this, and comments on this sort of thing are always contentious, but I have had these sorts of discussions with fellow life long fans so many times and for me, our success in the current era had two turning points. The truth is, in my lifetime, from Rush onwards we have always had star goal scorers as good as ballers like Salah, and especially Mane are/were, it's not new. The first sea change was Brendan Rogers getting the ball on the ground again, playing through the mid with shorter passes, control and then pressing. Then later, the players that levelled us up and allowed the tightness and organization came in at the back, Allison and Van Dijk - that is where we got a new level of quality we hadn't seen for a while, that the rest built out of.
Nieve is class
Minamino was a great signing.
He was bought for £7m as a squad player and scored us important goals to win us two trophies. Then sold for a profit.
Quality guests this week
Agreed...
That was an interesting watch!
At 22 van Dijk was playing at Gronigen and his dream move was to Celtic. At 22 Saliba is competing for PL and playing in CL and being called one of the best CB’s around. Levels.
Saliba won't have the success Van Dijk has had.
@@youngdolo8 one league title and UCL? Yeah you’re right that’s an almost impossible achievement
He was also sent on loan to France because Arteta was learning on the job and didn't know he was any good
@PaidTheCost88 come on man. let Saliba win 1 Champions League and Pl trophy...then we can start talk.
this might take more than 10yrs!!
My top 10 would be like
1. Vvd, Salah, ali
2. Robo, mane, fabi
3. Jota, gini, matip
4. Ibu, alexis
5. Thiago, Diaz, harvey
6. Timicas, Cody, xaqiri
7. Darwin, dominik
8. Endo, ox
9. Adrian
10. Gravenberch
This mode of ranking with the heat graph is so confusing. Should have just made him do a countdown where he goes from worst to best signings in his opinion.
Salah, Mane are the beautiful house, however the house was being ruined by the leaking roof.Once they got Allison and VVD they fixed the roof.
Taking price tag into account, I’d put Robertson as number 1
Klopp doesnt deliver players, he makes them from scratch ❤.
Thiagos legs definitely fell off big time and he shouldn’t have been so high. But he’s the only player I’ve stood in The Kop and just watched for 90 mins, his passing and positioning was breathtaking
Swap Gini with Jota and i agree, love them both but people forget Gini started 99% of all our games when he was here
Perfect list if we ignore the Thiago ranking, also endo needs to be a lil higher.
Loz's takes are cooked as lol. He had Elliott ahead of Matip before Nieve rightly put her foot down
I hope we can celebrate every last moment with klopp
Net spend is a dumb thing to attribute to a manager. It’s more of a how well a club sell
In terms of value for money you can't beat Robertson. Defined an era at Liverpool along with Trent
Agreed!
I thought Marco Grucic was Klopp’s first signing
Thiago higher than Szoboszlai is madness.
Szoboszlai has been useless bar the first 10 games of the season. Thiago in 2021 was 1 of the reason we even challenged for a quad
Would have been nice to split the deck and let Neve talk about her cards first and decide their placement, rather than her being a supporting act to Lawrence in this episode.
Salah played in a season when Van Dijk inured and the team was struggling
Van Dijk played every 2 season when Salah gone AFCON and the team did just well
The team was struggling before VVD injury.vvd play against Aston Villa 7_2 .VVD is overrated only 2019 was incredible before and after was a good defender
@@abdallahmohamed-zx8di before vvd injury and all defenders liverpool was first in table :P
I love Nieve!!!
Thaigo missed more games that Keita did over the same time span.... yet Keita was an "ice cold signing" and thiago was "world class and a hot signing"???? Thiago missed this entire season practically and we don't even need him.
Baby deserves to be higher. He was crucial in a lot of 1-0 wins .
Laurence bro come on everyone but the top 3 needs to be shifted down like 1-3 spots
These aren't Klopp's signings. And he certainly didn't negotiate any fees. It's been wildly reported that Klopp didn't even want the likes of Salah, instead he pushed hard for Julian Brandt. These are Michael Edward's signings. A lot of revisionist history here.
Some placements here are really overestimated, my lord!
Fabinho at same level as Mane...
where would you put firmino
The disrespect for Keita
Will miss kloop
Matip is one of the best Klopp transfers right beside Robbo
Matip got underrated
Alisson is the greatest player and Klopp’s greatest signing during Klopp's era. Why? First, he is always consistent, not like Van Dijk. Also, it’s only after Liverpool bought him that they started winning things. Even when Van Dijk was bought, Liverpool lost 3-1 in the final against Madrid. So, I don’t think Van Dijk should be considered the greatest signing.
Nunez should be second last, after Naby. How is he ahead of the likes of Ox, Thiago and Gakpo?
Bad takes from the non scouse Liverpool fan lol what a surprise the girl had more sense
Why did they look at just players with at least 30 games. Obviously players with less than 30 games are likely poor signings
How the hell are all the Liverpool players massively underrated bar Salah, Van Dijk and Alisson😂
I can kind of get Van Dijk over Salah, but I’m sorry, for as good as Alisson has been, a goalkeeper is almost never more important or better than a world class attacker.
The colour is pretty good how many times over the years where players or skins have blended into the background. So I think the red and blue combats that. I agree though this childish game show side of things is a little off putting I think the finals nailed this style of game.
Allison best prem GK ever? Come on bruh, top 5 for sure...
Klavan should be top (I'm Estonian)
Szoboslai way higher than where hes been placed
Bro is violating Salah😭 why don't we take Salah out and then see how would your team do so you can appreciate him a little
Matip and Ryan need to be way higher
They’re STILL talking about “net spend” 🤦🏻♂️😂😂😂
Where's Bobby?
I swear ‘net spent’ is a stat introduced by Liverpool fans and used only by Liverpool fans lol.
I’m pretty sure it was Arsenal fans actually…but what do I know? Like, what’s my net knowledge?
Nah this guy is insane, that was a terrible rating 🤣
