AvfcRigo82 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) In terms of Keepers, I know we have made an £8m bid for Cardiff's Neil Etheridge which has been rejected, failing that I think Nick Pope at Burnley is also a good keeper we should go after.

JAMAICAN-VILLAN Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 2 hours ago, KentVillan said: He was brought in as an emergency January signing for the Championship because Nyland was hopeless. We've now stepped up a level and have a summer transfer window, so it's not that crazy to move him on again if Smith's decided he's not good enough. We could of course keep him on for another season and let him fight for a place, but my sense is that there's nothing in his career record so far to suggest he's a PL keeper. I can imagine Neil Cutler has HUGE input into this as he seems a very respected part of the backroom staff. Alarm bells go off when/if Cutler doesn't think he can coach these into top keepers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me a lot of Hourihane with a better tackle, but a worse shot. That sounds like a better Hourihane to be fair. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 On the team spirit & togetherness subject...if we sort permanent deals for the loan players (Mings, Hause, El Ghazi, Abraham) then that won’t be such an issue or concern as they were a massive part of our success and integrated so well - can’t really remember when there was such a strong bond and relationship between players and fans and it’s especially rare, or even unique, when we didn’t actually own some of these key figures. Grealish & McGinn are our own, most important players so if we could add the loanees to them then we would still have a good group, it might not have to be the complete overhaul that many are anticipating. We do need to strengthen in key positions though and try to get some squad depth. I just can’t help but feel impatient, would like to see these guys signed and sorted and then get other targets in. Would be good to have the “spine” of our team set in place. Have a lot of faith in our management team though, so far they’ve made the right decisions - releasing and offloading the right players, none of whom would’ve been up to the standard required and would not have contributed much at all. Just waiting for reinforcements now and we need a lot! Have to be patient (as difficult as that is!). UTV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaVilla Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 (edited) would honestly consider moreno as a LB tho, we need a new LB, he wouldnt command a fee, just need to make sure the contract is the right one. Hes only 26 also, could have some resale value if he performs? only issue might be the nuts wages he would probably want.....

Vive_La_Villa Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Just now, MaVilla said: no idea tbh, he hasnt played much in the last 12 months, was he really that bad? Awful mate. Klopp would rather play Milner as left back than Moreno. As you say he is probably on decent money so happy to hang around playing a few minutes here and then. He is definitely an athlete and maybe can improve defensively. But he was always a massive liability for Liverpool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But ye, if he is that bad then NOPE 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 4, 2019 Share Posted June 4, 2019 Moreno was slammed when Liverpool gave away a 3-0 lead to draw 3-3 in the Champs League. Robertson took over after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
