I hope we make signings in January. We could go so far in competitions like the PL or UCL. We're in a great position and it's time to take this opportunity!
Don't go buying in the January transfer window.Just let these blokes finish the business they started in August. And trust me; they ain't doing bad at the moment. I'm beginning to believe and trust these guys to win the league for us this time around.
The slander on Quansah feels like deja vu with the vitriol against Jones. People are singing the latter's praises now. Why? Because good players don't become bad, they only end up in bad contexts. Jones biggest strengths are being press-resistant, ball-carrying, and fantastic goalscoring instincts. These are his strengths. Towards the end of Klopp's tenure, he abandoned the controlling style of 2018-2020 as he lacked the legs in the forward line and midfield and decided to revert to his highly transitional football pre-2018. Of course that will make a midfielder with strengths like Jones look bad as he's much better playing with patient buildup. But everyone got on his back for "slowing the game down". I repeatedly said on the subreddit that Jones is a real talent after his hat-trick of assists against Porto early in his Liverpool career. Now that he's in a system that plays more to his strengths, everyone suddenly thinks he's a world-beater and it just frustrates me how short the fanbase's memory is. It's the exact same thing with Quansah. He was absolutely brilliant last season and because he's not finding his feet in this new system, everyone's getting on his back. He's 21 for crying out loud. Try and recognize the potential and give those with high ceiling some patience to realize that potential. Geez. If he really cannot adapt to Slot's system like Darwin appears to be, then fine. But for now, Quansah's minutes are so limited it's unfair to say whether he's good enough for Liverpool at the moment. Heck, I'd even be as charitable as to say even Darwin deserves another season given the change in our attacking approach. Also, Marmoush being able to play in the right wing is the same as saying Darwin, Jota and Diaz are able to play in the right wing. Marmoush is right footed. He's flexible and adaptable but the right wing is not his optimal position. Can he stand in for Salah on the occasion? Sure. But I'd rather get Marmoush in as our long term centre forward. There's two ways to handle Salah's succession. Either continue the paradigm and get a technically gifted, hard-working, pacy left-footed goalscoring winger, OR we can accept a shift in the paradigm and move the goalscoring burden to another position like the centre forward and get a right footed pacy winger who's even better at beating their man and great at chance creation, like Ben Doak. The main goalscoring threat of Liverpool before Salah wasn't the right winger. It doesn't have to continue to stay that way after him. If Marmoush is prolific in the centre, we can accept a profile that's different from Salah on the right.
Your post was exceptionally well presented prognosis of Liverpool both current and future progress 👏 Salah is extremely valuable for Liverpool. After Salah I forecast that Liverpool is descending into "normal, mortal football".🏁🏁🏁
The lads confidence was just destroyed. He's gone on the pitch terrified ever since the Ipswich half-time substitution. After that, he's then been thrown in at RB against Anthony Gordon to get his confidence back up🤣
Jones is a great player and has lot of energie and hearth ..but Dom a higher quality, much better on the pitch and a much more creative player, be it ,visions, long shots or chance create, and defending.ruclips.net/video/FLxLK1aOZ4w/видео.html
Endo is a great player and I think Slot is starting to see his worth coming on late in games to lock down our defense. He's worth keeping - great leader and insurance policy for holding late in games.
Robertson + Mac Allister make Gravenberch play better. Whenever the ball is at the opposition, Mac Allistar and Robertson are the Rhino's in Liverpools midfield and front of the defensive box area. They run meters other won't, Robertson and Mac Allister should get Recognition for all that running for the team. Every player @ Liverpool delivers what they should or what is expected, just a few exceptions that need to improve ( Darwin & Gravenberch ), but Robertson and Mac Allister running and lungcapacity and determination are the glue that makes the others Thrive. Also, Endo & Slobiszlai are as good as Gravenberch if not better, but Gravenberch is the safest choice for less errors.
@@hokaturki121 He has played 14 out of 15 of his Bundesliga appearances as a striker this season. He played out of the left only once, according to transfermarkt at least
How about Hato from Ajax... He can play LB and CB...young age good physical...underated player,we can him in very short budget...We need backup in our defence
I think you’re spot on except for cb. Liverpool need an additional CB, especially since two of them have been injured, thankfully at different times, but it’s a concern. Gomez could fill multiple slots in the back 4 and now he’s out. Priority, CB, and, Slot does not trust the clone of vvd.
Kerkez & Zubimendi would solve a lot of problems if they arrive in January, but keeping Endo still solves a lot of issues as he can play 2 positions (DM & CB, CB is Endo's most-played position of his career). In terms of "opportunistic signings", as Hughes called it in the summer, Dani Olmo (£150k p/w) can play 3 different positions is not registered with Barcelona and is technically a Free Agent or someone to loan in.
Imho A backup defender and a defensive midfielder is what we need . We will fight premier league, champions league ,league cup and fa cup...pretty much everything so we need signing a couple of players
I've seen people talk about wanting to sign Hato from Ajax, and tbh, I think he's shown great potential, both with the national team and with Ajax in Europe/domestically. He can play both LB and CB, and can still grow further, so I definitely wouldn't mind signing him. Also, he says he looks up to Virg, so he probably wouldn't say no to this opportunity
Good observations about LB and a versatile midfielder would be very welcome too. Especially the last 3 or 4 games others than the extraordinary Mo Salah are also scoring goals. Through runs, passes and combinations, space is found for who ever can finish the resulting scoring chance. In Slot's football dynamics positions seem less strictly defined which can be an important tactical advantage if skillfully executed. This also makes it less urgent to spend excessively in January.
I would prefer to have another high quality back up for VVD as CB (preferably left footed) who can also play left back in emergency situation, another left back (like Kerkez, Robinson or Alphonso Davies), a defensive midfielder (like Zubimendi) and another young centre attacking midfielder (to do all the running stuff so that we can protect and prolong both Szoboszlai and Curtis career). Maybe we can harness Szoboszlai potential to become a dead-ball specialist. For Nunez i would love him to have a special coach or training on how to be more clinical as no 9. Or perhaps can loan or sell him to Italy with an option to buy back. It is just a matter of time before he will reach his full potential. We also need to improve our set pieces and throw-in. Marmoush is a good player since he can play no 9, no 11 and no 8 equally well. This means he can attack from the right, also have the ability to be both main striker and attacking midfielder (can subsititute Salah /Szoboslai). He is also quite good at set pieces. This current squad is so strong and full of potential.
The issue is i don’t want them to waste their time on Zubimendi again like last time, as good as he is i just feel last time they made the decision way to late, and i don’t want the same happening just for him to not make his mind up
The biggest risk is if Van Dyke gets injured, along with Kanate and Gomes re occurring injuries. All other positions may not be as catastrophic, even if salah is out we can play gapko , jota and diaz
Sell Chiesa - we open up 150k a week to spend on TAA, Salah and VVD. I just don’t see how we need him when we have Harvey that can fill in for Salah if he were to get injured. Darwin Nunez is interesting too. Diaz have shown he can play down the middle as well to rotate with Jota. Maybe consider selling Nunez to get someone else in that fits us better or to simply add a player as a LB or a CD
I think we should buy a central back this January instead of LB or CDM as priority It's better to have that as we can Rotate in Midfield much better than defense We need a more reliable CB to really rotate with Ibou and VVD I think Jones, Macca, Endo, Szobo and Elliot can sustain the midfield and Gomez, Tsimikas and Robjo can sustain those places till next summer. Thoughts ???? @everyone
I agree with pushing hard for these players, but until I see FSG give Mo, Virg and Trent new contracts, I would not get too excited about signing anyone else ... sadly.
They didn't even renew contracts and our fans think we are going to buy in January. At most, Salah & Van Dijk will sign a contract and this will be touted like new signings.
There is more urgent matter then any January signing we should secured the contract issue concerning Trent,van dijk and salah first, this is my major concern
We need a CDM and also a left back ASAP ....one prolonged injury to gravenberg can derail our whole plan of winning titles... Robbo isn't getting better and tsimikas is an injury prone player so a new addition would be a huge boost in that department...
Highly unlikely to make any signings in January, let alone anything as significant as these, for several reasons. Firstly, there's very little value in January, very few teams are prepared to sell good players and those that are are massively overpriced. Second thing is that Liverpool play a complex system of pressing that needs time to learn so even if these players were signed they would be unlikely to make a significant impact in the current season (this is one of the reasons for Gravenberch's struggles last season, and Chiesa's this). Third is that we don't want to block a prominsing young players pathway to the team (Nyoni, Doak, Ngumoha), Quansah has had some issues this season but he showed last season how much promise he has, even earning an England call up. Id say you are right about LB being a priority because Robbo is in decline and Tsimikas was never really the answer and Kerkez is a definite possibility in the summer, although that partly depends on what agreement are in place with Bournemouth given Richard Hughes' prior involvement there. My second priority is keeper as i think both Alisson and Kellerher leave in the summer, Mamardashvili is coming but we wold still need a good quality no.2. Third is a backup right back because i think TAA is out(i think Salah and Van Dijk both stay). Centre Mid is no longer a priority.
@AllRedShow 100%, but Van Dijk was the exception, not the rule. And arguably he would have arrived the summer before if they hadn't irked Southampton with the way the approach was made. I wouldn't rule out signings, even big ones, but I wouldn't be expecting any either
I'd be interested in Olmo on a free from Barca. Apparently the courts will not allow Barca to register him and he has a release clause if he is not registered by Jan 1. He could play 8,7, or 10. And rumors are that Olmo's manager is in Manchester.
NO way Liverpool sign's Marmoush. maybe later in the future. he just had his breakout this seeaon and knowing how liverpool sign players, they're never in it for the hype.
Marmoush isnt a right winger. He is a right footed striker that can play left wing. If you want a back up to Salah, Bakayoko would be great. He has only one and a half years left on his contract
While Kerkez would be good I believe he has said he would prefer to go to Man Utd as he was a supporter growing up, depends if he puts fanboy before trophies
I think that Marmoush should be the 100% 1st on the list transfer target for LFC Because, as much as we would all love Darwin to suddenly start finding the goal I fear that Santa forgot that new pair of shooting boots off his Christmas list So, after 2½ years of patients I think it's time to move on, accept the loan to purchase deal from AC Milan and go get Marmoush because the figures would just about balance out by the summer wouldn't they
I feel sorry for Nunez when he played for benfica he played on the left.I love Klopp but he as got that position really wrong with Nunez stamina and dribbling ability I would play him on the right get rid of chiesa and bring in another striker.Uruguay even play him on the left when Suarez played as striker
I agree with Kerkez, would be ideal replacement for LB but won’t happen in January. I think we’ll stick with Endo until Bajcetic comes back from loan, think Slott will give Bajcetic a chance at DM. (Although I’d love Zubimendi but not sure it will happen). Don’t think we’ll sign another forward yet unless we sell one. Can’t see much happening in January but I agree with your analysis that we need to strengthen in those positions. Hopefully my pessimism is proven wrong and FSG bring us a few Ballers. 😉
John Henry would quiet like to win either prem league/ champions league but will not spend any money to do it. He will use the excuse of trying to sign the big 3 by end of this window thats why he's ordered the negotiations to drag on until the end of Jan so keeps the spend at £0 ,,🤔 he's not that bothered really about winning the biggest trophys other wise the othe franchises in the portfolio will start making noises back home about not being backed. Not good PR for him😮
Hartman and Schouten are way cheaper then kerkez and zubimendi. Schouten would be way better he speaks the language of slot, no worries there. There's now no replacement for Salah. And strikers are not the cheapest. So spend your money there. Bring in a runner striker like Djiallo or OMG Haaland, LFC would be invincible for a decade.
Totally disagree, Left back deal with that in the summer. Right now Liverpool needs another Center Back as Liverpool is now down to Van Dijk and Quansah.
We need both a LB and RB, another CB would be good too. The problem with FSG is how good they are at everything AND their big fat stealth business model which translates to anything better than just ending a season in the top 4 and making it to the UCL qtr finals is gravy on their pile of net income. Naturally, we fans want them to spend in order to get the very best but they keep proving they don't have to because they create the very best in house. Now with a young energetic Slot, they couldn't be happier. That said appreciating all the benefits of having a professional sports management corporation as owners of LFC, I will personally NEVER forgive John Henry and his team if they let Mo or VVD go. Trent maybe should go and cash in and leave his boyhood club and learn Spanish...adios amigo.
I would get a LB and a long-term forward coz Jota can't stay fit and Darwin doesn't seem to be improving. For LB its Robinson, then forward I would bid for Marmoush or out of favor Ollie Watkins coz he already knows the prem and is great on the counter attack.
@AllRedShow Kyle walker joined City at a similar age in 2017 and was good till last season, he is now 34 years old. Robinson is now in his prime.Liverpool now play with more control so Robinson can easily do 5-7 years at Liverpool without getting burnt out and losing his legs like Robertson.
What happens if say van dijk or any first team player gets ab acl like rodri like 2 of our players what If maca and gravenberch are injured for a month endo is alright but we need backup
Of course FSG won't spend a penny. Things are going better than they could have ever possibly dreamed of. With that in mind they will only poss look to take any free transfers should they sell someone or any of the 3 leave at the end of Jan. Their priority will be the "World series mens rounders with the Red Sox Boston bashers or sluggers or whatever their name is"😅😂
I'm sure if they don't will have a bunch of hissie fits because top of every league and competition LFC isn't good enough. Having said that I hope we sign a new right and left back. 😂 we don't need a new forward or midfielder.
We need a cb and lb and cf and dmf Cb is there any chance to get bastoni ? Lb i will go for kerkez Cf i will go for Marmoush Dmf i will go for zubimendi
I hope we make signings in January. We could go so far in competitions like the PL or UCL. We're in a great position and it's time to take this opportunity!
I agree!!
Don't go buying in the January transfer window.Just let these blokes finish the business they started in August.
And trust me; they ain't doing bad at the moment.
I'm beginning to believe and trust these guys to win the league for us this time around.
We know FSG ain't doing anything. FSG is the worst club owner ffs, just invest man
there is no way with the stingy owner .. who even not rewarding performing players with new contracts
It’s not looking super great at the moment but we’ll see.
CB is the priority my friend! Gomez are out for weeks possibly months
Hamstring 4-6 weeks
Can Endo be an alternative? (He played CB against Souton.
I agree - CB is now top!
Why not just keep endo? Wages can’t be that high, he’s a good locker room guy, he can play DM or CB.
Yea might need to keep him now with Gomez out.

I trust slot and his assesssment. I think Quansah can get there. Just needs time and confidence.

Agree 10 out of 11. I think that Slots preferred A-team has Gapko on the leftwing and Lucho on nr. 9. Like last match. Jota in B-team.
Maybe. I think slot would prefer Jota to be healthy and start. He really admires his movement.
Jota seems to be the 1st choice no. 9, Lucho the 2nd choice no. 9 and Nunez the 3rd choice (unless it's a weak opposition).
If we don't want Endo then just sell him. But I still think instead of buying Zubemendi, we can try and integrate Endo in the squad.
Endo is a great player and I think Slot is starting to see his worth coming on late in games to lock down our defense. He's worth keeping - great leader and insurance policy for holding late in games.
True I love the way endo plays
Same...Endo should be utilized properly..Guy is born ready all the time..Whenever he gets chance, he gives an A+ performance
Robertson + Mac Allister make Gravenberch play better.
Whenever the ball is at the opposition, Mac Allistar and Robertson are the Rhino's in Liverpools midfield and front of the defensive box area.
They run meters other won't, Robertson and Mac Allister should get Recognition for all that running for the team.
Every player @ Liverpool delivers what they should or what is expected, just a few exceptions that need to improve ( Darwin & Gravenberch ), but Robertson and Mac Allister running and lungcapacity and determination are the glue that makes the others Thrive.
Also, Endo & Slobiszlai are as good as Gravenberch if not better, but Gravenberch is the safest choice for less errors.
Oof disagree with Endo being as good as Grav mate. Hot take tho!!
Good analysis, man. We need either Kerkez or Robinson on the LB and potentially also CB replacement - I am thinking Jan Paul van Hecke from Brighton
I would like that mate.
huijsen
Robinson makes so much sense.
He is lightweight@@ShabilKaleela
One thing that puts me off is Slot in his post-match press conference after West Ham, saying he’s very happy with the squad he has.
Marmoush hasn't been played in RW for a long while I think. His switch to a striker is what made his numbers explode this season
He is not a striker
More like an inside forward. He plays the same as Salah but on the left side. He could work as a false 9 though
@@hokaturki121 He has played 14 out of 15 of his Bundesliga appearances as a striker this season. He played out of the left only once, according to transfermarkt at least
Interesting. Well we need a striker too.
How about Hato from Ajax...
He can play LB and CB...young age good physical...underated player,we can him in very short budget...We need backup in our defence
Slot would go for Hancko before Hato. Hancko would just "slot" in effortlessly.
Yea Hato would be really nice. and a player for the future.
The priorities are LB & CB. If we recall Bajčetić from Salzburg, we wouldn’t need Zubimendi. But if #6 position needs a signing, rather go for FdJ.
Clearly Slot prefers Zubi over Baj in a big way.
It seems Barca's Olmo is free, he's a great attacking, scoring midfielder,who decides important matches.
See Euro 2024 Spain.
Is he on loan at Barca?
@@NoFrictionZone Barca exceeded LaLiga budget limits for players. So in 2025 Olmo can no longer play for Barca.
@luutzennijdam7213 I see, wasn't aware. Thanks! Solid player for sure.

Gomez injury, I'd prioritise a CB over LB. In order I'd say CB and DM in Jan. Then LB and FWD in summer
Why not, a LB that can play CB position?
This is because we still have Quansah
Agree with you. There are a few players that could play CB and LB.
We need a central defensive midfielder
Zubi preferred
The biggest risk is if Van Dyke gets injured, along with Kanate and Gomes re occurring injuries.
All other positions may not be as catastrophic, even if salah is out we can play gapko , jota and diaz
Good job, you managed to spell all 3 of our defenders names incorrectly 😅
True - VVD is most important player for us.
@daveUK1066 😂😂😂
@daveUK1066 ok ok let me try again. Van Dijk , Konate, and Gomez. Don't let me even try their first names. I may get Joe wrong !!!!!!
Sign a defender & midfielder next month , win the P L & C L this season . Gomez injury is a big blow .
I think we have to sign a CB now.
We should extend their contracts with very large buyout clause. This Trent case should be a lesson.
True.
Sell Chiesa - we open up 150k a week to spend on TAA, Salah and VVD. I just don’t see how we need him when we have Harvey that can fill in for Salah if he were to get injured.

@AllRedShow 100%, but Van Dijk was the exception, not the rule. And arguably he would have arrived the summer before if they hadn't irked Southampton with the way the approach was made. I wouldn't rule out signings, even big ones, but I wouldn't be expecting any either
i hope liverpool will sign a LB and CDM 🙏
Same mate.
I'd be interested in Olmo on a free from Barca. Apparently the courts will not allow Barca to register him and he has a release clause if he is not registered by Jan 1. He could play 8,7, or 10. And rumors are that Olmo's manager is in Manchester.
Interesting idea mate!
Hughes out
yea mate i'm beginning to question him. Trust edwards knows what he's doing at the top.
I believe bringing Chiesa was a mistake and we really need center back.
not a mistake - he was basically a free transfer.
NO way Liverpool sign's Marmoush. maybe later in the future. he just had his breakout this seeaon and knowing how liverpool sign players, they're never in it for the hype.
true
Lw / RW
Stricker
Need to get back up
If Trent wants to leave....
We need to let him go...
Conor Bradley is already a starting caliber RB so we would just need a backup for him if Trent Goes.
Spot on!
Thanks mate.
Liverpool is not signing anyone this January, if they would it must have been done by December.
Yea when we don’t open the window with deals already done it probably means nothing happens
No. The end.
Then because we’ve done well this season, it’s FSG’s position that we don’t need major investment in the summer.
We’ll see mate. Fans might start rioting if they don’t spend.
Marmoush isnt a right winger. He is a right footed striker that can play left wing. If you want a back up to Salah, Bakayoko would be great. He has only one and a half years left on his contract
Bakayoko!!! yes!
While Kerkez would be good I believe he has said he would prefer to go to Man Utd as he was a supporter growing up, depends if he puts fanboy before trophies
ew gross. if that's true then let him go ruin his career with Amorim at the wheel lol.
we hope so but we are great at the moment so no panic come on you reds yeaaaaaah
No panic at all just hope we can strengthen.
1. Hartman from feyenoord. 2. Schouten from PSV. 3. Amid Djiallo from Manchester. Maybe striker: Haaland????
Haaland?! Not a chance mate 😂
I think that Marmoush should be the 100% 1st on the list transfer target for LFC
Because, as much as we would all love Darwin to suddenly start finding the goal I fear that Santa forgot that new pair of shooting boots off his Christmas list
So, after 2½ years of patients I think it's time to move on, accept the loan to purchase deal from AC Milan and go get Marmoush because the figures would just about balance out by the summer wouldn't they
Yea Darwin doesn’t seem to be able to do it. Pretty crazy.
I feel sorry for Nunez when he played for benfica he played on the left.I love Klopp but he as got that position really wrong with Nunez stamina and dribbling ability I would play him on the right get rid of chiesa and bring in another striker.Uruguay even play him on the left when Suarez played as striker
Nunez has oppurtinities scores goal in every match, but he rarely score goal at the moment. That's problem
Nunez seems incredibly unlucky - but you can't be that unlucky for 3 years running. it's a mental thing and he can't get over it.
I don't expect anything in January, normally only teams in panic mode do.
eh maybe. we've seen big names move in Jan before.
You should of course strengthen the squad whilst you are in a position of dominance . Not dither because you can't believe your luck
Right
This will not be popular, but leave the team alone, there's depth on the bench, do business in the summer. Robbo's disrespect is sad!
I like your optimism mate - but remember all the injuries we had in January and Feb of last season? Love Robbo - he just doesn't have it any more :(
Kudus,inacio, isak and we win the treble
Omg mate that would be ridiculous. Never going to happen.
We should all know by now there will be 0 signings in January. No need to be even talking about it.
Ahhh bummer. :(
I agree with Kerkez, would be ideal replacement for LB but won’t happen in January.
I think we’ll stick with Endo until Bajcetic comes back from loan, think Slott will give Bajcetic a chance at DM. (Although I’d love Zubimendi but not sure it will happen).
Don’t think we’ll sign another forward yet unless we sell one.
Can’t see much happening in January but I agree with your analysis that we need to strengthen in those positions. Hopefully my pessimism is proven wrong and FSG bring us a few Ballers. 😉
i hope you're wrong too mate 😂
I hope we sign someone and 98% goes "WHO?!?!". And then it turn into a success...
haha - I would ask who you're thinking about but you probably don't know who it is yet 😂
Sign Ricci, Hato, then Randal kolo on loan and sell Tsimikas and loan Tyler Morton
Fair play. Wouldn’t mind that.
To be honest I don’t think Liverpool will spend this January, it would be a surprise if they do!
you're right - it would be a surprise.
Thanks bro l also agree with you .
thanks Charles!
Marmoush will be expensive and is not really proven
Not incredibly expensive given the market
They do not have money to pay Salah's salary
I think they do
Should we? Yes. Will we? Not a hope, it'll be new contracts only.
😭😭😭
gonna take 200m to replace TAA Salah and VVD.
100% - that's why I don't understand why we can't pay them their worth.
Dont need anyone we have a good squad good LBs stop taking them down
Love your optimism.
Yah Allah please Wake up liverpool and please make FSG back slot in janaury transfer window ameen
Just a wee bit is all we need
John Henry would quiet like to win either prem league/ champions league but will not spend any money to do it. He will use the excuse of trying to sign the big 3 by end of this window thats why he's ordered the negotiations to drag on until the end of Jan so keeps the spend at £0 ,,🤔 he's not that bothered really about winning the biggest trophys other wise the othe franchises in the portfolio will start making noises back home about not being backed. Not good PR for him😮
I think we liverpool to get marmoush so he can go up front and a new LB
I’d like that.
Hartman and Schouten are way cheaper then kerkez and zubimendi. Schouten would be way better he speaks the language of slot, no worries there. There's now no replacement for Salah. And strikers are not the cheapest. So spend your money there. Bring in a runner striker like Djiallo or OMG Haaland, LFC would be invincible for a decade.
Haaland lol!!!😂
The B team starts against Accrington hopefully baring injury , maybe a few from the A team.
Yep can't start anyone against Stanley. Everyone just needs to drink their milk.
John henry will sell his wife 1st before buying a decent backup player
That’s illegal sir
Diaz and jota good no. 9... Get rid of nunez and reinvest in another forward
Diaz does play well as the number 9. Maybe we’ll get to see him more there.
Totally disagree, Left back deal with that in the summer. Right now Liverpool needs another Center Back as Liverpool is now down to Van Dijk and Quansah.
agree that we now need a CB - biggest need now!
We need a CB asap mate, if anything happens to VVD, we are cooked
You're right - didn't know the extent of Joe's injury when making this video. CB is top priority now.
We need both a LB and RB, another CB would be good too. The problem with FSG is how good they are at everything AND their big fat stealth business model which translates to anything better than just ending a season in the top 4 and making it to the UCL qtr finals is gravy on their pile of net income. Naturally, we fans want them to spend in order to get the very best but they keep proving they don't have to because they create the very best in house. Now with a young energetic Slot, they couldn't be happier. That said appreciating all the benefits of having a professional sports management corporation as owners of LFC, I will personally NEVER forgive John Henry and his team if they let Mo or VVD go. Trent maybe should go and cash in and leave his boyhood club and learn Spanish...adios amigo.
good stuff David - agree with you mate.
Personally I woudn't use an A and a B team. I would prefer an A+ and an A team. But ok, just semantics.
Good stuff Harry - you're right. Our 2nd unit could win a lot of games.
I would get a LB and a long-term forward coz Jota can't stay fit and Darwin doesn't seem to be improving. For LB its Robinson, then forward I would bid for Marmoush or out of favor Ollie Watkins coz he already knows the prem and is great on the counter attack.
Good plan but Robinson is pretty old no?
@AllRedShow Kyle walker joined City at a similar age in 2017 and was good till last season, he is now 34 years old. Robinson is now in his prime.Liverpool now play with more control so Robinson can easily do 5-7 years at Liverpool without getting burnt out and losing his legs like Robertson.
No need sign new player in January 2025.
Ooooo hot take!!
What happens if say van dijk or any first team player gets ab acl like rodri like 2 of our players what If maca and gravenberch are injured for a month endo is alright but we need backup
Exactly - we need reinforcements.
Of course FSG won't spend a penny. Things are going better than they could have ever possibly dreamed of. With that in mind they will only poss look to take any free transfers should they sell someone or any of the 3 leave at the end of Jan. Their priority will be the "World series mens rounders with the Red Sox Boston bashers or sluggers or whatever their name is"😅😂
lol Boston bashers 😂
Need it least 1 or 2 players please fsg in January 2025
seriously mate - has to happen.
We need a CB that can play LB
Yes this would be the perfect signing.
Short answer: hell no 😂😂
Dang 😢
LB was priority before Gomez got injured
Yep now I think we have to get a CB
Have you seen baleba? he would fit way better than zubi
Yes Baleba is a baller - not sure we could pry him away from Brighton tho.
I'm sure if they don't will have a bunch of hissie fits because top of every league and competition LFC isn't good enough. Having said that I hope we sign a new right and left back. 😂 we don't need a new forward or midfielder.
just need a left back and now a CB - gomez out for a while.
We need a cb and lb and cf and dmf
Cb is there any chance to get bastoni ?
Lb i will go for kerkez
Cf i will go for Marmoush
Dmf i will go for zubimendi
Good stuff! Heard bastoni’s name before. Need to do more research on him.
I miss Nate Phillips and Rhys Williams
haha man that seems so long ago now. They stepped up in a big way!
great to see you making faces again. you realy looked dull in the video you were under the weather
Haha thanks Stephen 😂
Bring omar marmoush pleasee
Yessss
In short...a big NO imo😂
Tchouameni at CDM?
That’d be fun
fsg spend is joke, they need to sell first.
no one to sell so they'll have to put their money down on this one. With a chance to win it all they really should be going for it.
@AllRedShow maybe Darwin
also Mo Salah and,TAA after 1 year contract extend lol
What about Bajetic?
Big questions with him. If Slot isn't impressed he'll likely be sold in the summer.
Where is cheisa
As of right now I think slot doesn’t rate him at all.
The owners Liverpool become very poor
They really need to prove they're going for it now.
Bro u are not pencilling that the league only allow u 17 foreigners at best
Right. With our academy players we can flex with that.
Robinson is 28
Too old.
