The Unreliable LFC Transfer Rumours Discussion Thread (Part 3)

Which can only happen if the player agrees to the move…same situation we have with Diaz…

We can loan them a keeper… or sell them a decent one.

Wasnt it Bournemouth we intended loaning the Georgian keeper we signed last summer to?

Dunno how reliable that was to be honest.

Admittedly I don’t often dip into a lot of the threads on here, but are people relaxed about it? The focus has been on the three contracts expiring this season, understandably but, I think haven’t seen anyone comfortable with the idea of him going. As far as I’m aware everyone wants him to stay. It’s just taken a backseat to the contract situations of this season

This is very true. And their fans will spend all summer crowing about having an elite centre back pairing for the next decade. Meanwhile the clown behind them will be chucking them in.

I also completely forgot they spent a fortune on De Ligt last summer. Him, Yorro, Martinez and Slabhead feels like enough for them not to be shopping for CBs as a priority this summer.

Maguire is their best player currently mind you he’s playing upfront now.

The Adam Cleary video following the Newcastle game suggests they may need one.

His two main points were that when trying to play Amorim’s system, Utd lacked a DM and CB who can link up play between the defence and midfield when in possession at the back (teams just sit off the CBs and then press Lindelof and Ugarte who appear to have that responsibility currently).

His second point was that they were too reliant on Bruno to create opportunities when building possession (although they appear to be better at breaking the lines when winning possession high up).

Ahhh yeah, forgot they’re more of a back 3/5 team under Amorin.

Fantastic defenser 1 v 1 and aerially, but does lack quality on the ball, with teams regularly letting him receive the ball then pressing him.

However, he has improved on the ball this season.

What has this got to do with Liverpool? :thinking:

I actually think Nunez would do well at Man United!

All these players who are £60m ish - Simmons and the tv. It’s not exactly risk free. We would need the data.

I also like the look of Hato but I guess with Kerkez that would be a non starter.

I get the same feeling with Hujsen and Real Madrid tbh

Ive read posts by people here who mentioned wanting Zirkzee last season (prior to his move to United).

Perhaps but at least he’s already playing (and proved) in the EPL. This Xavi Simons chancer has apparently just signed permanently three months ago in France and now is being talked about as open to leave for the EPL in the summer but only because ‘this summer’ Barca looks difficult. Talk about being labelled a football whore without being called a football whore…

He grew up in the Barca academy and was their star prospect, but without ever having played a game for them got into a contract dispute and left to join PSG on a million quid a year contract.

He has been treated as an asset rather than a person since he was a child so it’s not surprising the player would approach the game with a mercenary like view.
