Moddle of September to beginning of October is the trickiest. but that holiday season is going to be busy. Of course it could all change with CL and Cup fixtures. 

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

Nothing crazy there. Should be a nice start for us.

[Jograves 357]

March, April and May look so sweet. If we can just be within shouting distance by the end of February...

So the latest rumors have Alisson off to Madrid and us linked with Napoli's Thomas Strakosha. No idea the veracity of any of that, all I know is it's a bitch to deal with Napoli.

Strakosha is a big 23-year old Albanian. Feels more like a Karius than an Oblak, and I don't think any of us want any uncertainty in our next GK, but I also don't see Oblak actually happening.

 

 

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

Meh. If we aren't going to land a world class keeper, just sign Butland for 10M and tell him he's a backup pending Karius' melt down.

[Bone3421 716]

Peru is cursed....but they might score 10 next game

If they get one in that will probably open the flood gates

LFC sign first-team striker today – Rhian Brewster.

Glad to see him staying at the club. All the talent in the world and a very good head on his shoulders. Klopp is not one to mess with a player's career and make false promises; if he said he's got a future here in the first team, he's gonna see the field sooner than later.

 

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

Great news. I'd rather give him a shot than seeing him go elsewhere and kick ass.

Pearce is retweeting a bunch of Fekir stuff. It's going through. He gave it away when he came off holiday to tell everyone Fekir passed the physical.

My conspiracy theory is Aulas had to look like the winner to his shareholders and agreed to it but it had to be official after the WC. We said sure go ahead and declare victory. We weren't going to get him on a pitch until after the WC anyway.

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

I'll wait for the lean.

[maninblack 7974]

Always a solid plan as well

I thought it was interesting the club was quiet when Lyon said it was over. I didn't see any quotes from LFC that our interest in Fekir had ended.

Not at all upset with Egypt being eliminated here. Hopefully Mo doesn't play in the final match.

He's not the kind of person who would sit. He'll beg to play.

Maybe I'll see him in Charlotte now.

Think you're getting Rhian Brewster instead. NTTAWT.

Wouldn't mind us putting a bid for Kevin Trapp.

28 and not a starter. I'd rather aim higher.

[maninblack 7974]

Sure but we're not getting Oblak and if Madrid pips us for Allison then he's a perfectly fine option. Better than Karius and can most likely be had on the cheap.

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

Not sure if better than Karius...

Way less upside, long term.

[maninblack 7974]

Disagree but don't care enough to argue about it

Well hopefully we can just talk about it all summer, do nothing, enter the season with the question looming over the team's head and then find someone in the winter transfer market that will make it all better and save the day. I mean why can't it happen two years in a row right?..........................................

Gimme Lozano at LW and Mane at the 10. 

[Hagbard Celine 10749]

itv reporting mo is playing tomorrow

[maninblack 7974]

Not surprised. Hope he does well and doesn't get hurt.

[Firemans4Horn 17823]

Egyptian FA is a real piece of work. They’ve been using Mo as a piece of propaganda in conjunction with the leader of Chechnya.

Yeah saw that, I get why he’s pissed.

Danny Ings set for Anfield exit

Obviously you have to feel for the guy. Not sure he ever would've made a big impact, even without the horrible injuries, but either way it's good for everyone to move on. According to that article, he's attracted interest from Inter, RB Leipzig, and Leverkusen, but I'm pretty sure he'll end up at Fulham or something.

 

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

I will always root for Danny. But yeah, he needs to go. Brewster is the future. Origi is making waves. Danny wants to start and that ain't happening any time soon.

[Firemans4Horn 17823]

Origi hasn’t done anything since Funes Mori took out his ankle two years ago. 

[Jograves 357]

Totally agree. If we're counting on him as our first guy off the bench, it's going to be hard to win what we want to win. 

[mdmost 42827]

Keita is here and he's wearing #8

 

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

The Gerrard Seal of Approval.

IN!

[Jograves 357]

Those shoes tho. Wow.

Slacks clearly tailored short so as not to obscure view of said shoes.  Those cuffs are probably mid-shin when he sits.  #tailoringtalk

(In before qp)

Sounds like Shaqiri is nearly wrapped up. I don't hate the deal at all. He's a massive upgrade over the bench options we had available in the CL final and as evidenced whenever he puts on the Swiss shirt, he can be a fantastic player when motivated. I also like that he's a fiery dude who doesn't mind getting chippy; the eagle celebration vs. Serbia was fantastic.

I certainly hope we have another attacker or two in the works – Fekir still seems likely – but for the price I think Shaqiri would be a great signing.

[Cheeseweasel 26437]

Role players like Shaqiri will be critical down the stretch. I like it.

[mdmost 42827]

After watching him in the World Cup, I'm all for it, especially at a decent price. Guy has a motor and could be a good spell for some of starters. 

[Jograves 357]

Just have to keep him away from the steak houses.
